Surprisingly, yes. I made some risky decisions between 2020-2022 that paid off significantly, though.

The pandemic turned my prior job to 100% remote and I got in writing from their HR that I could move anywhere in my province. This allowed me to find a house I was able to afford buying, so that's what I did with the support of my wife. About a year after that I got a much higher paying job local to my new home, which is when I beat or matched my parent's income at the time which certainly was more than when she was my age.

I lept into the unknown and didn't die, it's been great!

More people voting could have actually changed everything. I clicked through probably 2 dozen ridings on elections.on.ca > unofficial results and only 2 had a margin greater than ~7k and some were under 1k.

Mushkegowuk—James Bay has a margin of 4.

My own riding saw the NDP incumbent also win, but only by a margin of ~1600 while being one of the higher voter turnout outs of ~51%.

Barely an increase over the last election, roughly 1.9%. This makes it the 2nd lowest voter turnout in recent history.

I really hope the promise to remove the minimum price of liquor doesn't sway people to vote for him... Reducing the minimum for beer did nothing to drop the cost of beer. Pretty sure the companies just pocketed the difference and the same will happen with liquor.

3D printer’s on the fritz, eh?

Psilocybin is the bees knees, highly recommend. Not even in a "get chooched" kinda way either. Use a little to make a tea and just exist after drinking it.

Do something safe that requires concentration, like drawing, writing or playing an adventure video game (light on the action, no horror, really as little violence as possible). You could also straight up do nothing but exercise mindfulness with a long meditation.

If you're worried about the legality or safety of acquiring it, use a prepaid credit that you buy with cash and order it online.

Microdosing is also totally reasonable, bearing in mind that there are stains just like there are with weed. Some will do a body buzz, some will boost your energy and some will boost mindfulness.

Moosenado is WMD material and terrifying

Apparently phone too! Like 3 cards down was another post linking to instructions on how to run it locally on a phone in a container app or termux. Really interesting. I may try it out in a vm on my server.

Can someone with the knowledge please answer this question?

I just don't know what to do with my hands most of the time and sometimes shoulder pain...

Isn't that pretty much the context for the movie Civil War?

Ya, apparently a hairnet and gloves were enough even though other employees were in full smocks and aprons. It was weird.

 

I haven't really played a lot since season 12 with a break from season 7, so the dynamics have obviously shifted from the OG days but good gravy is ranked ever thirsty these days.

 

Pretty much the title. We bought a pig, not knowing about boar taint so didn't inquire about the state of the pig (gender, age) beforehand. First cook and it's heavily present.

Will trimming off all the fat and boning it help mitigate the taint (and crossing my fingers here so hard it hurts) or remove it altogether? Anyone have experience on this problem?

 

I do offer my humblest of apologies, but I have lost the game. I thought this may be an apt opportunity to make my first post here instead of just lurking.
