I’d still chase down ice cream trucks as an adult, I just want a tasty soft serve!

That doesn’t seem like an issue. If you require an expedited delivery of mail, then you’d need to pay for it from my understanding. I’d imagine its not much different from overnighting a package

It’s like deferring all housing construction to for-profit developers has been failing even with incentives and subsidies in the form of tax breaks.

Without any involvement from the public sector to build government subsidized housing and lacking financial supports to create new non-profit coops, there is simply no incentive for the private sector to build housing that’s affordable.

Yeah, that’s fair. I don’t really have family supports to fall back on and I just built up a small emergency fund for the first time so it’s not a serious consideration as much as it is nice to daydream about, especially since I feel like I’m able to also find routines and purpose for myself if not for my lack of independent wealth or support structure (beyond my partner that I wouldn’t want to just live off of)

The work-life balance has been a big struggle of going back and forth on getting to saner hours while also having a bunch of mental health stuff going on from not dealing with earlier in life and starting a job search since the company I’m at might fold. I know I’m not alone and I am in a privileged position having employment, but as someone that is easily overwhelmed and struggling mentally, the escape from responsibility is a nice thought in a vacuum.

I am starting the process of seeking help now that I can afford it, but it’s more “work” to do anyways.

I’m sorry for the wall of text, but yeah rationally it’s not wise to just not be employed, though it’s at least a nice daydream that’ll stay that way hopefully.

Can relate. I’m the end of my bloodline as well- at least for my branch of the family.

So round, and huggable!!

This seems to be the plushie showcase thread now Hello Mr. frog! :D

Awww, that’s so cute!! 😊 I love her outfit too!

The BC NDPs seem to be doing something right- now if only the ONDP can take notes and prepare a similar platform for the next election

Just looking at the site for a hot second, they stand to benefit greatly from increasing housing prices, and I highly doubt home builders would want to do anything to bring prices down where their bottom line is affected.
