Book buying, scuba diving, urologist, who is a sucker for puns, cute animal pictures and new recipes.
If we could all stop calling it junk and go back to calling it jewels, my job would be easier (but probably less interesting). #urology

Our office is a small parking lot away from the city’s safe injection site. It’s largely unhoused people hanging out trying to stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. I often get asked if I’m scared to work near it, and I say “they’re just people.” My experience has been much like yours.

lol, I just finished telling the “kids” in the OR that I was raised by wolves. Or maybe it’s more accurate to say I raised myself.

Also…how much federal $ flows to AB in the form of oil and gas subsidies?

My drive in to work was surreal. It looked like a wall of clouds rolling in until I realized it was smoke and an hour later it was hazy outside. Inside the hospital smells like a campfire.

I’m going to sound like the “uphill both ways” old guy, but I had a 20 minute walk to and from school, which was done alone, rain, shine, or -30C. Biked in the summer. Can count on one hand the number of rides I got from my parents, same as you. It just wasn’t a thing.

I’m really not this much of an asshole about it, but it’s for comedy.

Naturally. And harsher laws and restrictions.

I mean…the slogan of the eventual president was “Make America Great Again.” Published in ‘93!

Now you’re getting it. It’s also important to make people so poor they will take those jobs, too. Strip away workers’ protections and pensions. Get them so poor they’re only focusing on their survival, not the open theft the government is committing. Make them too poor to leave.

They won’t care until the inevitable rise in crime, but there’s always the minorities and immigrants to blame for that.

I am still trying to learn this and put into practice. I am not what I do. My productivity does not determine my value.

Yes, Mr. Black. The threat is still very much there. It did not disappear. But I wish you would. I hope to never have to read your drivel again.

I blame Preston Manning. The Conservatives HAD to remove Progressive from their name, because they weren’t any more. A lot of voters felt/feel disenfranchised.

My BIL rescued an injured crow. She can’t fly but he stretches her wings out every day. She makes some cool noises but only for him. He absolutely adores her.

Or to claim you had $3000 in your purse when yo didn’t. How can the insurance company know how much she had in there?

He’s been campaigning for at least the last 2 yrs, but yet to release platform while we’re on the 3rd day of early voting? And still no costing? He’s a populist and will pay for things by deep cuts into social safety net. He’s said as much. Yeah he’s a vote for change alright. Change to what tho?

I think the point is that this picture is either AI generated or has been photoshopped. And there’s no need. There are plenty of real photos of him with young women.
