Unless monthly payments on renting from the bank are lower than renting from someone else it’s a worse deal. If you rent you don’t need to worry about things like replacing roof, windows, etc.
Also, if you rent you’re more free to pick up and leave vs. being tied to a mortgage.
For a lot of people it does have to be that way though. I just saw an article claiming 7 million Canadians are struggling to put food on the table. They can’t really decide to take the more expensive climate friendly way. A billionaire could absolutely decide to do that though.
Horse shit. No one gets that wealthy without making some anti climate decisions. That class of people have the power to make significant sacrifice for the better while normal folks have the power to make very tiny sacrifices.
Not saying we shouldn’t all be doing our best but at this point in time the ones with power are steering the ship.
Feels like a lot of culture creep. Some of these wing nuts talk about the first amendment as if we have that here. Some of them also seem to think that our Prime Minister has presidential powers. I think the “fuck Trudeau” flags are a rip off of the “fuck Biden” flags too.
I’ll end up voting for them. They’re the closest for me. It’s disheartening that they don’t really have a chance in my riding though.
Didn’t say I wasn't going to vote. I just don’t like my options.
I’m so fucking tired of all this right vs. left bullshit. They all suck. No one in charge or who wants to be in charge seems capable of nuance. Maybe that’s a reflection of the general public, I don’t know but it’s exhausting.
Lucky for me I can’t afford a new car anyway. I’ll just keep driving my unconnected car.
Isn’t apple shifting to production in Inda?
How do you go about getting an invite to one of these holy grails?
“Percentage grades make it possible to differentiate between good work and excellent work more precisely than vague descriptors such as ‘emerging’ and ‘developing,”
This is a dumb take. No one in grade k-9 needs more specificity than the four labels coupled with teacher input. I suspect the people who are against this change are simply against change.
I’m a parent too and I agree with you for the most part. I’m woefully under qualified for this job and I’m very grateful for the professionals and other adults in my youth’s lives. We’re very much missing the ‘village’ part of raising kids.
I guess not. I just went to their site out of curiosity. I couldn’t find any policy statements. Just a vague mission statement type thing.
Update: they have a policy document from 2021 under their ‘governing documents’ heading on the website. The document doesn’t address this issue at all.
Totally thought I was going to get Rick rolled
I had no idea call of duty was such a big deal. It’s not my jam so I never notice it.
Very similar thing happened to me. It felt weird for a little over a year. Like I wasn’t sure who’s eyes I was looking out of.
I can’t afford diagnosis either and I don’t think it would be super useful for me. What it did change is how I organize my life. Now I make sure to have ear plugs/noise cancelling headphones with me. I make sure to have time on my own and/or doing the things I’m in to. The best thing is that I no longer feel like a moron because I’ve mishandled a social situation. Now I can chalk it up to not understanding, learn something, and move on.
Best of luck in your journey!
Getting shot at is bad for your health, got it
A patchwork of things has helped me acquire and maintain a more balanced life. I’d say the largest contributor was adopting ‘radical acceptance’ as a way of life. Basically, I’m constantly, consciously accepting whatever is happening to me. It doesn’t mean I don’t try to change things but it means that I’m not always resisting everything.
