100%. I know people mean well, but it isn't very helpful. It's expensive to be poor and I don't think folks understand this.

The cost of canned beans has gone up and I can't even with the "get dried beans! all it takes is a pot and water!"

Not helpful if you have trouble paying utilities, work full time and take care of kids as well, insecure housing, and have never cooked dried beans.

I am very tired of takes from people who are not food insecure telling people who are that "they should just do X! it's cheaper!"

A lot of time it isn't the cost of the food, it's, well, the cost of actual time to do so. Remember: being broke isn't the same as being poor.

ACA = β€œObamacare”. Same thing. Its proof that many white folks would rather shoot off their own foot if they knew something helped a black or latino person get by too. Its no different from how they used to fill public pools with cement during integration resulting in everyone being hot & miserable.

I think part of the problem is people confuse being broke with being poor.

β€œWhy aren’t we as shitty as the Americans?” is one hell of a question to be asking right now.

And that’s true in the books! Older vampires have more β€œpowers.” IIRC, most vampires who are one to two generations after Akasha and Enkil are the strongest.

Before I go to bed, unfriendly reminder that boycotting Amazon and other services is just *not feasible* for some people. Income, disability, access to other services, lack of transportation, delivery fees, etc.

It doesn't mean they're "complicit". It means they're a victim of capitalism too.

Yup, and I feel awful. I got the airport wrong.

Hi kids, I got the wrong airport, we missed our flight and we can’t get a flight out west until the 30th. So we cancelled everything full stop.

Our vacation isn’t happening and I feel awful because I didn’t double check our boarding passes.

If you live in Ontario, we're privileged to still have free access to flu vaccines & Covid boosters.

Get them! I just did!

Immunocompromised/high risk can go now & everyone else can book now for appointments after Oct 28!

Get them ASAP & you'll help make the holiday season safer for everyone πŸ’ͺ🏻

Anthropomorphic cabbages with the text Let the Cabbage Heads decide the appearance of future groom or bride on a Victorian postcard

Anthropomorphic cabbages with the text Let the Cabbage Heads decide the appearance of future groom or bride on a Victorian postcard

The heyday of exchanging halloween postcards was between 1900 and 1920 and the bizarre images often had a folkloric tale to tell.

These anthropomorphic cabbages allude to divination recorded in Scotland and Ireland where the shape of a pulled cabbage stalk denoted the figure of your future love!

Magnificent. Just so good. Beautiful, epic. This is what it feels like to watch a movie made by a person who loves stories.
