Sounds like you need to read the book Debt: the first 5000 years by David Graeber.

Penicillin is one of many types of bread mould.

I too will probably die from bread mould poisoning given my stingy habits with food waste. It’s fine if it’s only the white/blue type, right?

I could not begin to distinguish a factual post about soil from a shitpost. All of it seems like a hallucination

Generally, the upset about the Quw’utsun case is alarmist, racist, and based on misinformation from local politicians.

There are better sources to get factual information about the case and the implications towards private property rights. Largely, the case invalidates Crown and municipal land, not private property. I’m no legal expert, so the article below explains it better.

I think you’ve identified some areas that are causing this. Intense vocally negative people, really traumatizing and disheartening world events. Watching the world change for what we see as for the worse IS depressing.

I’ve felt this about climate change, and tried medication and education and being informed. None worked like taking action. Going to restoration events, taking part in community events and making small changes to my environment. When you find small ways to take action, you can relieve the feeling of helplessness and then your surroundings yourself with positive change. Whatever your cause is, whatever makes you sick and want to turn away, find a cause that combats it and take action.

Not a sure fire thing, but it’s a start.

They keep referring to CanadaPost as a “business” and not as a service, and it fundamentally misinforms people about how it should operate. All services cost money. It’s not “loss”, it is the cost of providing a public service.

SK is probably one of the safest provinces to have nuclear power as it has very minimal seismic activity. I hate that they are using this to drag the dead coal horse along though.

Also standard issue online idiot with no law background. Only here to judge, not to be useful or productive. :)

Honestly, it’s telling that the province’s that want this argument removed are the ones most likely to abuse the notwithstanding clause to infringe on charter rights. Why else should they oppose it?

The title is a gem. Decard Cain, you beautiful bastard.

I did an undergrad report on MTHFR in regards to how smoking reduces folate levels which can lead to birth defects in babies whose mothers smoked during pregnancy. Did not know about the neurodivergence connection! Might give that avenue a read

Third paragraph, first sentence.

I know someone who has participated in Talisman Sabre as a CAF member and ultimately it is a signal to China that they cannot quietly absorb other countries like Taiwan without the rest of the world knowing or acting. It is a not an act of war, it is an act of assertion of rights and boundaries for other countries who we are allied with, along with useful training for our military.

This is not a statement of right or wrong, just what one member has expressed to me as the purpose,

Yeah, at the start of a campaign sure. You hand draw something or find something existing. But at the end of a 20level campaign lasting 3-5 years, $60 doesn’t seem so bad to commemorate years of joy spent with friends. Hell, the pizza alone costs thousands over that same time span.

I allow them to feel fat while still demanding they provide evidence if they actually insist they are overweight.

I feel fat even when I’m in a healthy weight range; I think that is patriarchal social programming. I don’t think you can control how someone else feels. But when they start really getting down on themselves, I encourage them to either find evidence that they are overweight and then set goals to deal with it. Or, they can’t actually prove it (ie. They are healthy weight/waist) and then we deal with overcoming the social programming.

Not perfect, but it works for me and my partner. Mostly deals with accepting how we feel and making a plan about it.

I’m a bit shocked at the downvotes. The article brings up some valid criticism of how Carney treats people around him, even in the public eye, and how his actions are really speaking louder than his charming words of promise.

I literally had that experience in grade 2. The class was asked a negative numbers question, I answered the question correctly but the answer was “impossible”. I wasn’t reamed out but I was shut down hard so I wouldn’t confuse the other kids.

This.

Then perhaps we all agree that quoting stats without the whole context present is misleading.

You could have written 47% opposed privatizing some of Canada Post, the larger percentage of that group. By choosing the smaller opinion group, you make it seem like the support for privatizing some of our public service is actually the more popular opinion, when it is not.
