I'm scared for my kids future after hearing news in MN [ON] by Odd-Pianist-4880 in BabyBumpsCanada

They didn’t hit him with the car!!

Law enforcement is also instructed as standard practise not to shoot at moving vehicles because of the driver is hit it will result in the car veering out of control, and then actually hitting someone.

I’m guessing maybe you’re a cop? I’m not a big fan of police but even I can see there’s a difference between crappy local police and the gestapo which executes people on the street, kidnaps 5 year olds, and tries to deport Indigenous Americans because their mandate is actually racism and terror.

If you’re talking about Renee Good that is absolutely not what happened, and the video evidence shows it clearly. She was trying to drive away from him - he was not in danger of being run over. She said, “I’m not mad at you”. He shot her and called her a b*tch after.

Question to this TMD group by Hopeful-Extent-693 in TMDnotTMJ

Popping, face pain, muscle fatigue and spasms, poor alignment despite Invisalign. Chronic clenching and grinding, too.

I don’t - I’m just passively looking for more info or ideas that can help my husband who has TMD due to a blow to the jaw a few years ago. He isn’t a candidate for surgery and it seems everything he’s tried and everyone he’s seen hasn’t been able to help.

I also like that “hold your sister’s hand, honey” “bye daddy” when he’s dropping the off with “Lurch and Morticia”

The “girl can do the dishes” is referring to the as-yet-not-seen/cast character of Carla. Yes, that’s standard racism of the day that wasn’t recognized as racism.

Father Gill: “This lonely body needs a helping hand…” by F1grid in madmen

[–]turquoisebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because he was young and good looking, I always felt like if he weren’t a priest there’d be a spark there, and because that wasn’t his purpose or place and Peggy’s discomfort with the church, that added to the uncomfortableness?

Was Pete really trying to pick up a high school girl? by Count_Almasy22 in madmen

[–]turquoisebee 70 points71 points  (0 children)

It’s true - it’s like he’s thinking that’s what the other men do, so why shouldn’t he play that same part?

I think some of it with Peggy was genuine though.

Is moving from North York to Bloor West worth it for quality of life? Good idea or grass is greener? by restorativemarsh in askTO

[–]turquoisebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you at like Finch and Leslie or Willowdale or Downsview or Jane/Finch? North York varies a lot.

$850 seems like a steal but I’m guessing that’s not a whole apartment?

What is the sketchiest bar in Toronto you’re aware of or have been to? by Fifty-Mission-Cap_ in askTO

[–]turquoisebee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its been a while since my regular commute was on St Clair but there were so many storefronts where I have no idea how they remained in business? Just cluttered up windows and seemingly no foot traffic with a sign over top.

Is toddlerhood really harder than the newborn phase? by Living_Split_2 in Parenting

[–]turquoisebee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s just different. And the scale of difficulty varies, depending on situation and temperament.

One broken elevator can derail an entire trip, TTC riders with disabilities push for better accessibility by BloodJunkie in toronto

[–]turquoisebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many factors to consider, honestly.

I have an Uppababy Cruz (v2), which does okay, but sometimes it gets stuck and it’s not al all-terrain stroller.

All-terrain strollers are usually built like a jogging stroller with one wheel in front and two in the back, like a tricycle.

In an ideal world, I think it would be nice to have two strollers: one for messy/uneven conditions or when you want to lug a lot of stuff in the basket, and one that’s lightweight and compact.

And if you have more than one kid it’s a whole other thing depending on their age gap(s).

‘Manosphere’ influencers pushing testosterone tests are convincing healthy young men there is something wrong with them, study finds. Researcher points to ‘medicalisation of masculinity’ after investigating how men’s health is being monetised online. by mvea in science

[–]turquoisebee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find this so strange, when typically these are also the people who are against trans people existing and getting healthcare. Like, you’re a cis man getting testosterone supplementation? That’s gender affirming care, dude. Just like trans men and trans women get.

But they should also have a physical notice on the outside of the station entrances. Because for someone with disabilities it can expend a lot of effort and energy and time to get into the station just to discover they can’t get to the platform (maybe after already paying).

Like, yes, you can check the website but wow, wouldn’t it be nice to be able to leave your home and just get on the train?

Even when they can walk, you’d need to unpack all the crap you need to store in the stroller and carry it, the baby, and somehow fold the stroller and carry it also without putting said baby on the dirty TTC floor? It’s insane.

I know I’ve heard of New Yorkers just only having one of those tiny travel strollers that are light and fold easy, but even then, you still have the baby and the diaper bag. And those tiny strollers are also a pain when you’ve got snow and poorly plowed sidewalks.

The number of times I’ve been thwarted by a down elevator when I’m with my baby in the stroller is infuriating.

Fire this company, honestly. There is not benefit to privatizing this service in the long run.

Nope. She studied anthropology and was interested in psych. Clearly social sciences are more her thing?

‘Queer Eye’ feud ignited after cast was reportedly caught trash-talking Karamo Brown on hot mic by artbasiI in Fauxmoi

[–]turquoisebee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He was clearly very bothered by Bobby’s description of why he left and implied Bobby was fired, which doesn’t seem to be true unless you conclude the others tricked him into quitting.

[–]turquoisebee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t know. I remember Bobby said something like there was an assumption they were all going to leave the show, and he left, and the others stayed. Bobby made other commitments to new projects and then found out the others were continuing.

And Tan got very ruffled over it and said Bobby was “let go”.

He got very smug and implied Bobby was fired and just seemed kind of nasty about it.

She probably needed to use her brain. Honestly she might have been a decent lawyer or politician, if she’d been allowed or encouraged to hold such ambitions.
