I haven't managed to count but I'm going through bags really quickly doing this. That bag was probably 2/3 of all the white plastic bags I've collected over the years.

That's pretty standard for any abusive relationship. The abuser usually waits until they feel like their partner can't escape before they become awful.

I'm always waiting for my husband, too. Drives me nuts.

I have a family of four in a 1000sq ft house and it's honestly perfect. Any bigger would be too much work for me.

My small Canadian town, where most people drive a massive pickup truck everywhere, has started considering improving transit and introducing car-free areas. Things are changing.

When something is your job, you usually don't want to keep doing it when you get home.

Let's say we do decide to torture murderers. Who is going to torture them? Are we going to pay for these people to have therapy (because they're really going to need it)? How would you feel if you found out your next-door neighbour tortures people for a living? What do we do when we find out, years later, that we've been torturing an innocent person?

I think you need a little more life experience so you can realize that things aren't as simple as you seem to think they are.

My mom didn't let me use a calculator as a kid and I'm really glad now. I can do simple calculations much faster than if I had to use a calculator.

Oh I know! It's so weird. Ovens are probably because we get ours from the US, but why we do pool temperature in farenheit is a mystery to me.

[-] RoquetteQueen@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 year ago

As a Canadian myself, it really depends. Most of us only understand farenheit in certain contexts. Some of us can understand it for weather but I think that's mostly older generations. I use farenheit for oven and pool temperature only. In every other context, it is meaningless to me.

Or like, you could stay home if normal things that happen in public bother you so much.
