This doesn’t really make sense to me. Sex segregated prisons exist to stop sexual violence but the majority of trans women are attracted to women, and they can easily overpower cis women. I would expect cis women to be more in danger from l

> one of the safest, most progressive countries in the world and you dismiss it as a collection of mining companies? Throw in real estate and oil and that pretty much covers it. Canada doesn’t have a very bright future.

Yahoo answers is the reason I was insecure about not having an average 8 inch penis when I was 11 years old. It was probably the lowest quality forum that I’ve ever seen and I’m glad to hear it’s shutting down.

I have no idea. I’ve never lived without the internet and my entire lifestyle depends on it. How did people move to new cities and find jobs and a place to live without it? Cold calling once I find out how to get a foreign phone book? Sound

It’s just toxic positivity and bragging. Gratitude is useful for people with bad lives to find something small to cheer themselves up. It’s not for healthy people who love their jobs and their family to flex on the people who can’t think of

I don’t want to read what other people are grateful for because it just reminds me that the things I’m missing are actually important. A piece of paper and a pen works better.

Does it really matter? We live in a time where there’s no necessary relationship between the government that you pay taxes to and the one that supports the people who pay you. That’s what remote work makes possible. You’re suggesting that f

No, I'm thinking about the more mild forms of disordered eating like a constant fear of gaining weight and feeling guilty about eating. Anyone who has a sedentary lifestyle needs to be pretty neurotic about food to maintain low body fa

That’s why humans of the future will eat those weird bacteria that you find in places like volcanoes, the bottom of the ocean, or acidic caves. Gruel will be a wet, raw clump of it, and we’ll call it “Beyond Bugs”, because bug eating is an

Sometimes I wonder if the positive social consequences of having an eating disorder can actually make up for bad health outcomes. Good looking people are always treated a lot better, and mildly underweight looks a lot better than a little b

Canadian engineers don’t make very much (60-120k range is typical) and that’s with a 4 year degree. Neither do technicians, repair people, scientists etc. $120k is just what 18 year olds make doing labour at the very beginning of their care

Canadian oil workers who make $120k fresh out of high school with no education are never going to be satisfied with training for their new $70k clean energy jobs. The problem is good jobs, not just jobs. How bad does climate change have to

Memorializing life online is the reason people get fired for saying homophobic stuff at a time when even most left wing politicians were anti gay marriage (>= 8 years ago). I don’t want this. I would use social media a lot more if everyt

I was a 2x WFH intern. Micromanage the intern a bit more. Ask to see code that’s being worked on and don’t let them go too long without interaction. It’s way too easy to get distracted when the only interaction we have is a 15 minute stand

Any school can teach it but most people still need to do lots of practice to reliably get through interviews. That’s not taught, and it’s something that students from average schools don’t even know they’re missing until they start looking
