I happily took an awesome nursing chair from my next door neighbour’s curbside…the only awkward part will be putting it to the curb myself one day in the very near future 😂

Oh wow, that was quick! Yeah I couldn’t believe it when I heard he passed away…even after all of that, it was such a shock. Glad you enjoyed it!

Enjoy! :)

No personal experience here at all, but to anyone who finds this fascinating/crazy, I absolutely recommend a read of “Sing Backwards & Weep” by Mark Lanegan. It’s a personal account of his struggles as an addict while being the lead singer of “Screaming Trees” during the late 80s - 90s “grunge” era. He doesn’t hold back at all. Couldn’t put it down.

Totally agree with this. That being said, it also seems a bit hypocritical…

Ahh gotcha. The Anno series is great (same with Linux!) so keep at it - best of luck!

Have you enabled Steam Play in the game options? Might be an easy step to miss/forget. Usually if a game won’t run for me it ends up being something simple like that!

Tom from MySpace really is the nicest guy on this list…he was my first friend on there! 😎

Which is also a song by a Canadian band 😅

This girl is also temporarily homeless, which is why she was so tired. Adds a whole extra level to this…

Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2…the exploration of the wilds while so vulnerable in the first game is something I’ll never get bored of while the second game just takes it to a whole other level with your power growing so immense. They still totally hold up with the extended editions!

Beating the first Baldur’s Gate after numerous (hundreds?) attempts over the years when I was 19-ish (ca. 2009). I recall actually tearing up quite heavily 😂. Even after all these years, still my absolute favourite game for replay (when I get the chance!).

As a kid, I thought this was meant to test your sound system for the movie (aka lone CRT) and would blast it as loud as I could.

As awesome as it is that they even entertained the idea of female firefighters…how ridiculous is it that they were more concerned with fashion rather than function…

Totally agree, it’s wild, just wanted to give some perspective from the other side 😊

After all that school, I hear you 😅. But physicians in Canada, for instance, make substantially less than our friends to the south…for some specialties, even getting to $200,000 doesn’t mean much when you have so much debt, fees, and other business costs. It makes a difference given the huge need for physicians all around…such a sacrifice on so many levels with little payoff untill so much later. Couldn’t imagine the impact a donation like this would have anywhere, let alone Canada.

I get the hate, but as someone with some experience here, the amount of debt from a normal BA/BSc is miniscule compared to med school…like doesn’t even come remotely close. The amount of time spent paying that back for someone that doesn’t come from wealth is sometimes longer than they live…

Yes! So glad someone else though of this 😎

These just keep getting better and better

I’m on Lemmy.ml and am anything but a “tankie”. Love it here. Tonnes of tech/varied posts in my main subscribed feed and I’ve never noticed anything other than a minimal dose of drama…Facebook or Reddit are much more toxic in comparison which is part of the reason I left those places.
