I grew up with boomer parents (one went to DJ school) who blasted only Beatles and yacht rock, explaining anything made after their youth was not even music. It spawned in me a lifelong curiosity and dedication to new…
What if Jeff Bezos buys X game!
Or, to shift perspective, we are also in a class-war position of a general strike.
Do you have any money to apply for? I'm in Canada and my friends who've applied have all gotten it. This is the last time anyone should have to live cheap, it's the time when all the taxes you've paid do the job of…
Yes well many wanted me to write a tips to retirement book and not an apocalypse memoir. I can't write some of it, or am not ready to. But, no one should do it. It's just total privation and lack of self care, or would…
I've spent multiple years in therapy trying to integrate just that - that this is wild. My normal prevents me having healthy relationships. Events like a plague are more dangerous to my ptsd work than my health (though…
Totally. It's certainly why I never had kids, I can't stand all the responsibility of that.
That's wild! I learned about it from a friend from Jamaica and I was able to source it so cheaply. How weird that a rural Canadian girl from a town with a Jamaican mayor (who was the only West Indian family in town )…
That's true. I mean, I mean the best dumpster diving is in rich neighbourhoods. Food banks also dry up in hard times. I lived in Nelson BC for a time when most people there were on welfare (it was at about 80%) and the…
Yes vans are a luxury! My first 'home' was a tent with no zipper and then a VW rabbit for a year and so when I got a '64 Ford Econoline it was my mcmansion! I find that having a home is stressful, like stuff owning is a…
What's funny is I've been living in St Petersburg Russia for 4 months a year for the past 3 years. It's wild to live there now, where the stylish and beautiful youth are extremely enthusiastically embracing capitalism.…
Thanks for the search - it's on amazon too. It's translated into Chinese and sells very well there, especially right now.
I'm a daily runner now for 26 years ( five miles a day currently) and an asthmatic who always has gunky lungs, but, as per my lung test last year, I have the lung health of someone 20 years younger instead of 20 years…
I left home at 15 and some adults who worked together let me move in with them and be their maid. I paid $150 a month in rent and got $10 a month to live on. I worked out how to live off Milo (a Jamaican malt…
Here you go: (Pete's got more than one! So we need at least two teams: https://twitter.com/vino_freakism/status/1237959739025149952...
Why I miss that aspect of VHS: In '95 I took a VHS tape that was in a pile in a shared apartment with no label and recorded my friend joking about her bakery job and then she popped the tape in and we watched it and…
Yes. And yes. I am Canadian and complacent is what we are. I spent last year in Russia and France and no one there is complacent. I feel that complacent is the best way to describe our comportment.
My partner is Finnish and so I stay a few weeks every year for years. I am Canadian and the cultures are very similar (northern, low population density, WASP-y, racialized immigrant hating - eg calling the dialect of…
When I was at Hacienda Napoles a few years ago the Zebras had escaped and three men were chasing them around calling them whores. It was _super_ fun. The zebras like many of the animals there have been in captivity for…
Horror story from my stepfather at Bruce Nuclear Power Plant in Ontario Canada: At least twice a year there was a "secret leak" where he had to come home early but no media was alerted and they had to hire racialized…
No. That counts as an anti-sex worker perspective. Sex work takes skill, talent, customer service skills and most sex workers derive the bulk of their profit from regular customers who they build relationships with.…
Did you know that, according to Canadian sex work laws, living off the avails of prostitution is criminal. So, any sex workers with children face the reality that their children can/will be arrested for the same laws…
I was a sex worker - a stripper and I highly recommend it to everyone.
I'm centering the conversation around sex work from the sex worker perspective. Does everyone who works prefer to be independent? Or do many prefer a boss to deal with the day to day? These are basic sex worker…
