The natural gas comes from Alberta, the coal comes from BC though, no?

I’m being a bit cynical here, but is it because the coal comes from BC?
I’ll gladly scrap mine and revert to walking and a wheelbarrow if it gets us out of this mess.

Staaaahp! You and all your encouragement: you’re almost making me feel like I can do it today.
Do you change the emphasis? da-ko-TANT?
Old English was ‘den’. Place names ending in ‘den’ or ‘don’ were originally farmsteads cleared in the forest, i.e. Wimbledon, or Camden.
Not sure you’ve given us enough context. Why would I feel the need to defend myself when someone asks me directions.
I have a suspicion you’re asking if someone questions my actions or something.
I’ve started to think of “optimum solutions” rather than “right solutions”.
The word “extreme” colours your question a fair bit. I think equality of all genders is good, I don’t think anyone should be subject to unfair treatment based on gender. As a cis-het man I like to be in a relationship with a strong woman.
However, I dated someone for a while that probably fit into the “extreme” category. It was exhausting. I sometimes felt like I couldn’t do anything without it being subjected to the question: “is this the patriarchy?” Like, she needed to hang some closet doors, had no tools, and I was like, “Oh, I can bring my drill over next week and do that!” That offer to help needed to be examined.
It also got annoying that workplace frustrations we both faced were always primarily parsed as “men being sexist” when it happened to her.
IMO often her “fierce conversations” were her being kind of dick about something.
Her model for independence and autonomy strayed very close to a refusal to take anyone else’s needs into account. Her desire to treat everyone like they were equal ignored actual power differentials and the responsibility with which they come. For example, she argued she wouldn’t put the booze away if someone she knew was an alcoholic was coming over because that would be patriarchal and robbing the alcoholic of their agency.
It got exhausting.
Between stagnant wages, insane housing costs, and rising food costs … What’s going to give?
I believe in a society where all are cared for, but did we really just legislate another subsidy for boomers? They’re the richest demographic in Canada. What about housing for families? The Boomers are the ones that created this fucking mess. Just squeeze us more. I’d be more sympathetic if I hadn’t actually had multiple boomers complain to me because they can’t age out in their 5 bedroom homes on their acreages. The fuck? You made housing an investment and made a mint on it, sell your investment! Oh, it’s a ‘home’ now? My family of 6 is in a two bedroom derelict shack because 3% was apparently the cost of living increase, while housing has doubled in 5 years and food.
I probably haven’t been too nuanced here because I was raging before I could finish the article.
It’s true. And there’s a wide range of shapes that appeal to a wide range of people. Keep posting nudes and you’ll get all the confirmation you need.
Sure. I’m just not a German speaker, but if I parse the components out, meyer translates to major (?) and English gets both ‘hag’ and ‘hex’ for ‘witch’ from German.
Does the first party of her name mean, “major witch” in German?
Hey, do you recall what it was that was causing it? I’m pretty sure there is a leak in the vac system somewhere because the engine not stopping coincides with the door locks not working.
Yeah, and I’m doing the same thing: popping the hood and hitting that ‘STOP’ switch to kill the fuel supply.
Mine was babied until I got it 6 years ago. I live in a place now that uses lots of road salt. I made a decision at one point: I can’t afford to baby it, so I’m going to drive it to death. I’m going to mourn when it dies. I wish they still make simple cars like that. Ironic it was such a luxury back in the day. Pretty sure I’ve got the original receipt and it was bought for $38 000 in '84.
Yup. That’s the drill. It’s so reliable it won’t stop without direct interference.
I have a '84 Mercedes 300D Turbodiesel. That thing will keep running after an EMP. It’ll even keep running when I take the key out (I got a vac system leak somewhere). I’m going to cry when that thing dies. It’s so not fussy either. Radiator instructions: “Try to use clean water.”
Oh man, that’s too bad. I hate the corporate takeover of agriculture. I totally noticed the degradation in Island Farms dairy when Agropur took over.
