    So much this. I reconnected with my dad after 10 years. We both can be stubborn. And all it took was sending an email. It took some time and things were a little awkward at first. But since, we’ve really made amends. He attended my wedding and now it’s to the point where we visit one another a handful of times a year. We talk on the phone at least monthly and text often. I’m really glad I decided to send that email that day. Can’t imagine if I hadn’t.


  • I used to work in the waste sector - been to a lot of dumps. Let me tell ya, public sector dumps were literal dumpster fires compared to their private counter parts. Inefficient. Years behind in technology. Weighted down by nepotism and typical government employees.

    It was such a relief when I knew I was assigned to a private sector dump where things just fucking worked because people just let it work.










  • They’re very mediocre in Canada. But that said, they’re cheap as hell compared to their counterparts. And I’d argue, in many urban centers they definitely are feeding the homeless, just charging for it lol.

    You can get two cheeseburgers, fries and a drink for $6. You can get a pack of nuggies for $3. You aren’t getting that sort of bang for buck at any other commercial fast food place around here. Something like that would easily cost close to $10 if not more at mcdonalds.

    I always tell my wife if I was homeless, she’d find me begging for change at the intersection closest to a burger king.
