This is insanity. I'm glad she's safe here in Canada and edit: HOPE she will be granted status to stay and complete her PhD that she's almost done. It sounds like Srinivasan is the kind of person we want to welcome here: intelligent, hard working, slides with justice.

I hope Canada will continue to be a safe place for people who work hard for a better life not just for themselves, but others also.

ISPs will provide service so long as it is profitable. It is not profitable to go to northern, remote areas through all the trees and terrain for the relatively few people who would be customers, even at 100% market share. If there was profit to be made by expanding to remote places, they'd be there already.

Although this thread is about Internet, this is also why it's incredibly stupid for people to whine about Canada Post not being profitable. Of course its not profitable, its a national service that services literally every unprofitable community and person in the country. Even with the recent price increase, it definitely costs a lot more than $1.24 for Canada Post to deliver a letter from Windsor to Iqaluit.

I am very displeased that they left the Rutherford and Tendi relationship hanging.

The millennial hate is so unreal. A friend of mine is also a millennial, but she refuses to admit she is one and insists she's Gen X. She is not Gen X by four years. Then she told me she identifies as Gen X🤦🏻‍♀️

(Actually her attitudes and behaviours are more stereotype Boomer than anything.)

Consider the phrase "be real with me" colloquially means "be honest with me". Also "real talk", "your real self", etc.

How can mirrors be honest if our eyes aren't honest?

Kid wasn't wrong, in fact, was quite right. People are in denial about their outward appearances never mind other things) all the time. People with anorexia see themselves as overweight when they may actually be dangerously underweight. People think they're ugly when they're not. (Conversely, may think they're really hot about when they're not.)

People are saying being funny and having confidence, and they're right, and I'm going to tell your why. When being around you makes someone feel good, they will want to be around you more. That's not exclusive to romantic relationships, it's true also of friendships and business relationships, too.

An acquaintance asked me out not long ago, I declined. His looks had nothing to do with it, it was his negative personality. The few times I'd talked with him, all he ever did was complain about stuff. Complaints (without solutions) are inherently negative. I don't need negative energy in my life. A romantic partner has to make life better.

If your expectation is for someone to come and make you happy, then you are a happiness-sink. You drain joy from other people instead of mutually building up each other. No one wants a joy-drain, and I'll be honest with you, your attitude is one of a drain.

So, the question is, how do you make a someone's life better? Do you being laughter to her? Do you make her feel safe? Do you give her confidence in herself? Do you bring interest to her life? Do you make her feel heard and seen? And to be clear, someone should do all those things for you mutually, too. Two people should be building each other up.

The last guy I wanted to ask out (but he abruptly lost his job and had to move to another city, so I never did) he was in his late 20s and already balding quit a bit, lanky, and has terrible posture. Physically, he not very attractive. But not only was he very funny (a good start), he was also doing his masters (intelligent and hard working), played musical instruments (passion and interest), and spent a lot of time volunteering (kind and caring). Everything about his personality drew new to him. (And honestly, next to that, what positive would I have brought to him?)

As a fountain pen user, I would suggest against that unless you know it suits her personality. Fountains pens require maintenance, and certainly it's easy maintenance, but it's definitely more work than a ballpoint. They are a hobby, and if it's is not her thing, she'll never use it.

I would instead recommend a nice ballpoint pen set where the ink can be replaced when empty. Something she can use without having to think about or maintaining it.

I don't know how he puts up with it, but I do know why. He was alone since he was a teen, and now his wife and in-laws are his only family. His dream has always been having a family and community. He'll bend over backwards to please his in-laws. It's unfortunate they treat him like that, and while his wife is sweet, she's a pushover and doesn't stand up for him.

Why the in-laws are like that? I don't know.

Sometimes people are just stupid and/or self-involved, no mental illness necessary.

Well, I mean, the obsessively and angrily chasing Aang party definitely shouldn't be emulated, but he's got a very good character growth arc.

• He learns his worth as a person (and as a prince) doesn't come from his abusive father, but intrinsically from his own self.
• He gains the insight and humility to admit he was wrong and seek forgiveness from the people he wronged
• He learns to empathize with other people, and that he is his strongest when he releases (and is no longer clouded by) his anger and fights for good.
• He learns to appreciate the people who love him (Iroh) instead of chasing after someone who doesn't (his father).

The world would be a better place of everyone could learn the lessons that Zuko learned.

They'll simply ask for it and people will give it in order to keep using the platform.

Google Ads asked me (a private individual) to provide my drivers license or passport in order to verify an organization's Google Ads account, or else the account will be suspended. I understand verifying the organization via governed registration records, that makes sense. But requiring an emoloyee or volunteer's passport?

The account is just going to get suspended.

Mariner even gestured to the facial Scar and outlined the shape of the chair with her hands.
