I find it jarring every once in a while, when I bother to do the math & realize that I could date dudes born up to the mid 90s now and its not totally creepy (I’m 31). Like, guys that weren’t even alive when Cobain died (I was young when it happened, but had JUST gotten into grunge and it was devastating).

Right? I feel like the true mark of being an old is that you have no fucking clue what the drugs are anymore.

I have that problem, but I’m convinced it’s due to multiple, untreated concussions. Back in the olden times, I was told to “shake off” slamming my head into things; it wasn’t until my last 2, in my early & mid twenties that they were properly diagnosed, but I was in school/working and too afraid of falling behind or…

I usually get broken up with right before Christmas or birthdays (mine or his) BUT I’ve always tried to do the experience thing, unless they’ve specifically mentioned a need or want for something (but I always keep the receipts for the aforementioned reason).

I am an IUD haver and lover that was also never presented this LIFE CHANGING DEVICE as a contraceptive option. When I decided I wanted one, my family doctor at the time wouldn’t refer me to a clinic to get one without chatting to him first, and the clinic I was trying to get a referral took months to get an…

I was told by the clinic I got mine from that you’re more susceptible to STIs for the first couple of weeks after insertion which is why they generally advise against having (unprotected) sex for the first few weeks after you get it.

Frank was Ben?! WUT.

I accidentally got wasted at a staff party because the only thing I could eat were potato chips and it was impossible to flag anyone down that was serving them.

Sure they are! Who do you think is ACTUALLY GOING TO BUILD THAT WALL/ROUND UP ALL THE BAD HOMBRES?

I am not okay with (female/non-white/non-Christian) reporters & journalists “getting used to” hateful, threatening words being hurled at them. I’ve been/felt threatened before merely because I am a woman that happens to be breathing; I cannot imagine what it’s like to have that kind of venom being spat at you on a…

This. I don’t expect people to cater to my inability to break down certain foods, and always either eat before I go or pack something for myself UNLESS I’m explicitly told they *are* making something I can eat. I give a huge amount of props to my sister because she always makes sure I can eat whatever she’s serving…

You guys, Canada has been cleaning up the world’s messes for YEARS, but no one seems to notice or remember.

For the last week, I have been trying to eloquently state how I feel about the current state of the world. You know what? “Fuck” says it better than anything I’ve been able to come up with. An exasperated, fearful, somewhat defeated “Fuck”.

Uhhhhmmm, a quick googling seems to confirm that abortion is not covered in Canada. Our healthcare coverage varies by province, and even with OHIP (ontario health insurance) or private coverage, there’s no guarantee it would be 100% covered. It would not surprise me if it wasn’t covered at all in Quebec (historically…

Oh man, that’s brutal. Is it something you could charge to a credit card and pay down though? Like, it’s got to be cheaper than condoms (if you use them) and the pill over the same period of time. When I got mine I had to similar math because at the time I was in a committed relationship (rip) and we didn’t want to…

This. You basically need to stick to larger cities (if I’m not mistaken, PEI JUST got their first clinic) and hope you don’t get some out of touch doctor who is against the procedure. And you still have to pay for it (as a non-Canadian, I doubt it will be cheap) and for somewhere to stay while you’re here. And take…

I think you mean cockroach :)

Maybe he’ll follow his good buddy Locthe’s road to redemption and appear on Dancing with the Stars. Unless it’s aired on NBC (I know nothing of network tv)

I am Canadian. I will not put money toward the Conservative party, no matter how small a$15 membership fee seems. I can’t bring myself to do it, and have donated money to Planned Parenthood instead.

He was in the running for mayor until his cancer diagnosis, which is what led to him dropping out of the mayoral race one month before it was scheduled to take place and going after a city council position instead. In any case, my details were fuzzy/incomplete, but the point that someone can be openly hateful and…
