When is it the right time to give up? by wise_pancake in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

No one has ever fixed their lives after 20. It only gets worse if you're not rich as a teenager or popular online before then. Everything after 20 is just drug addiction and fighting.

That’s just not true. I was an unemployed drop out fire a while in my early 20s and got married and bought a house at 30.

My brother was a single father with a useless degree working part time at a pizza chain at 20. Through most of his 20’s he worked for a temp agency making minimum wage. Around 30 he found a job in a machine shop and they paid for his apprenticeship and now he’s their top employee. He’s in his late 30s now and is the happiest I’ve ever seen him.

Another brother I have failed a bunch of high school classes, barely graduated, then turned a crappy construction job into becoming a union carpenter in his 20s. He owns a house, got back together his high school girlfriend. They have 3 kids and are a very happy family now.

Quebec should adopt standard time (and so should the rest of Canada) by wise_pancake in c/canada@lemmy.ca

That sounds great

If I leave my body to its own devices I usually end up waking up with the sun, which is nice.

Did they actually get a photo op of him riding a steamroller and expect a different outcome?

Oh boy more vote bribes.

As an Ontarian I'm so happy I'm getting some petty cash and not doctors.

This is the straw that broke the camels back, next election on voting NDP.

Hey Ontario, are you doing OK? by wise_pancake in c/ontario@lemmy.ca

[-] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 days ago

I'm certainly not happy with our government, but I'm optimistic that Marit Stiles seems to be starting to figure things out.

I would really like an election with the ONDP and OLP give the OPCs a run for their money.

I think Ontario can do better and I'd like to see us achieving our potential and thriving.

OC - screen caps from Sub Rosa mixed with the old Reefer Madness poster.

I had fun with this one, the halftone effect gave me a lot of trouble.

This post inspired me to try and create a Reefer Madness post. Title based on this trailer.

TNG S4E16 Galaxy's Child

This episode has so much cringe in it.

Geordie setting up a meeting and trying to make it into a date is a lot. Plus omitting that he had the computer summarize her files to resolve a critical crisis, while using the information he got from her file in discussing with her is not good.

Brahms does an excellent job letting him down and putting up firm boundaries.

But oh god, when she discovers the holodeck program, and then Geordie rant!

It's tough to watch in a totally different way than the Quark Gender swap episode.

I just watched Measure of a Man, they rule Data has the right to choose. But in Voyager the EMH gets relegated to forced servitude. Why? Doesn’t that violate precedent?

What happened after they used the forest?

The trees slaughtered his workers, broke a damn, and destroyed the factory.

Typical executive short term thinking, yeah, Saruman hit his production targets, but he Boeinged them by doing it.

Oh god this is me.

Arguing with a VP that their expectations aren’t realistic, our market is saturated and cost of are increasing.

“You’re just not being creative enough, 20% annual growth isn’t even worth me being in this meeting. Come back when you have bigger numbers”

Oh okay. I just spent a quarter doing deep competitive analysis on every project on our roadmap and backlog with detailed per line analyses, but sure, your gut knows more.

Mathematician: this is category theory. No, it didn’t have anything to do with categorization, it just helps us understand how spaces can map to each other. Yeah I guess it’s kinda like graph theory or algebra, but not really. We made a category of graphs, and you can use the category of graphs to represent endofunctors on the category of categories.

Poilievre says 'biological males' should be banned from women's sports, change rooms and bathrooms (www.cbc.ca)

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre stepped into the debate over trans rights on Wednesday, saying "biological males" should be banned from women's sports, change rooms and bathrooms.

"Female spaces should be exclusively for females, not for biological males," Poilievre said in Kitchener, Ont.

The Conservative leader made the comments after being asked if, as prime minister, he would introduce legislation to prevent "transgender women" or "biological men" from participating in female sports or entering female prisons and shelters.

"A lot of the spaces … are provincially and municipally controlled, so it is unclear ... what reach federal legislation would have to change them," Poilievre said.

"But obviously female sports, female change rooms, female bathrooms should be for females, not for biological males," he added.
