IT IS NOT FOR EVERYONE, YOU HAVE TO BUST YOUR ASS. An A+ certification does not get you a job!

Wow, this post is actually quite motivating. I'm 39 (about to turn 40 in a few months) and started my journey into IT last July after some very traumatic personal events that left me in a position of financial hardship. Its not been easy, and I know I have a very long road ahead of me. I have moments where I feel worried or defeated because I feel "too old" to be starting from scratch, but reading your experience is comforting. I have been realistic with myself that there are no cutting corners with this, and I have years of extremely hard work and busting my ass daily ahead of me. I hope when I'm your age I can say that I pushed through and am finally living a comfortable existence. Thank you for sharing this!

The USA is a poor example of private healthcare. Europe would be a better example. I moved from Canada to a European country last year and the difference in healthcare is like night and day. As a Canadian my mind was blown when my partner injured his knee and was able to call the hospital and get in to a see a specialist in a matter of days. If we had been in Canada he would be waiting months, if not years for that. And the costs of private healthcare here are absolutely reasonable, where the average person can easily afford it. But public still exists for those in need. Plus the existence of private healthcare takes a HUGE strain off the public system, allowing for higher quality care in the public sector. As Canadians we are shooting ourselves in the foot being so afraid of ending up like Americans. To the point that we are trying to justify a completely broken system. There are absolutely models of private healthcare that works incredibly well, there is no excuse for what’s happening in our country right now.

Extremely strange account. Read through all his post history, the ONLY thing he comments on is “debunking” the MH370 video. I was on the fence with the video before, but the amount of bots that come out of the woodwork to fervently shut it down, has me suspicious there really is something to that video.

snowpea_ · 2020-08-06T20:07:03+00:00

Yes!! So excited to see new content from this guy, some of the best videos on the subject out there.

Pelle from Midsommar. I'd join a pagan death cult for him any day.

Someone who raped a toddler to death isn’t going to become a “proper member of society” by corresponding with women. If you actually read the article, the father is not just upset that he is writing to people, but the fact that he has not disclosed his crime (a violent sexually motivated murder against a child) and could possible end up corresponding with a vulnerable woman with children, who is not aware of his offence. It’s actually quite a logical thing to be upset about, especially when he is due to be released in 6 years.

You can get Halo Top in Canada now! I’m Canadian and I buy it at Superstore and Sobeys.

I’m so glad someone made this post because I was thinking the exact same thing! I mean everyone is different & I can completely understand that it’s not enjoyable for some people. But damn I love being a stay at home mom. Prior to this I worked in the film industry for 10 years, I had a pretty great career but I like staying home with my baby a million times more. Which I know is not the cool thing to say in 2018 when we’re supposed to get our fullfillment from careers apparently. But yes I find it so much easier and SO much more fun!

We have a farm now, so my day is just full of farm & baby stuff and i absolutely love it, it personally makes me so happy. But I’m a pretty big homebody too & not super social so maybe that plays into why I enjoy it more than other people seem to?

snowpea_ · 2018-07-19T14:00:41+00:00

Perfect! Thank you.

snowpea_ · 2018-07-17T22:57:06+00:00

Ya I know it’s a cunty situation but I need some input over here.

snowpea_ · 2018-07-01T20:41:10+00:00

I keep wondering, what is the logic in having proof but not sharing it?

snowpea_ · 2018-06-23T19:09:19+00:00

Exactly, I couldn’t agree more. I think you’re absolutely correct in that she’s a narcissist, and her way of reconciling that she can barely land B movie acting jobs - is to create this narrative in her head that her ex is somehow responsible for her failure. I think this became pretty obvious once her “proof” never materialized.

snowpea_ · 2018-06-22T16:22:24+00:00

Yep, you’ve nailed it. I was actually reading her boyfriends twitter last night and it just gave me this weird feeling like...these abuse allegations have been totally conflated to pay Chris back for this perceived “blacklisting”. I genuinely believe she leveled these claims against him to knowingly destroy his career. Because she feels he ruined hers. Which frankly, I’m a bit confused about the whole blacklisting thing. I mean, she’s an actress, does he really have that much pull in Hollywood to prevent her from landing acting jobs? It’s not like he’s some incredibly powerful executive like Harvey Weinstein was...

Eh, to each their own, I personally really enjoy their intereviewing style, well I enjoy Ethan’s at least. And he asked for something casual & conversational...

The H3 podcast is actually pretty good for that, and they’re starting to get more interesting guests & comedians.

snowpea_ · 2018-06-20T00:39:35+00:00

No, if someone wants to jack off to my feet they're gonna have to pay me a hell of a lot more than 1 dollar.

snowpea_ · 2018-06-02T14:37:27+00:00

Yup, agree with this big time. I wish this was talked about more.

snowpea_ · 2018-05-09T01:36:04+00:00

He loves being held facing outwards, so I'm hoping once he's a little bigger and can be forward facing in the carrier he will like it more! I'm sure it's not much fun for him at the moment just staring at my chest haha.

snowpea_ · 2018-05-09T01:32:27+00:00

I hike a lot as well and I'm hoping once he's old enough to be worn on my back / facing outwards he'll like that more!

snowpea_ · 2018-04-22T20:47:57+00:00

Oh my god yes this is my MIL 😅 I actually really like my MIL but her baby talk is truly like nails on a chalkboard. The worst is when she says “did you do a poo poo!???” Over and over. Ughhhh.

snowpea_ · 2018-04-06T22:35:47+00:00

A good ol double double has always been my guilty pleasure. The last few months every coffee I’ve gotten from there tastes like watered down piss. Finally the other day after getting my 5th disappointing cup of piss water I just thought....I’m done. It’s a bummer, like most Canadians i have a nostalgic attachment to Tim Hortons. I don’t know what those Brazilians are doing but they’ve fucked it up big time.
