RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I work at a large downtown city hospital which is in a pretty gnarly part of the city, this morning walking in the cops were walking someone out of the ER in handcuffs and a gown and nothing else, and the other day I had to tell security to go get the passed out naked guy out of the bus stop out front, and last week some woman was yelling at the dietary staff because they wouldn't give her a spoon to go out and do heroin with. But there are Saskatoon berry trees all over the puny lawns and I can eat a handful in the morning if I get there before the starlings do, and somehow just the sight of the place when I walk in is beautiful every day, when in icy winter. It exemplifies everything about my city for me and why I love it, warts and all. It's always full of people flowing around the hallways in a constant stream and it feels so alive.
