I pay 5$ per month for my plan. Automatic renewal is like 240$ per year. Every year I have to call and say I'm going to cancel. They then end up offering me several different prices. It's tedious.

Still waiting on the AAV but it will be backloaded contract for sure.

What a great day!
Congrats buddy! Thrilled for you and your wife

Congratulations!
He’ll probably want to negotiate an extension when he nears the end of the first term. Probably in the vicinity of 7 years.

The family who lived in the apartment above me with the kid who constantly ran, jumped and stomped moved out last weekend.

Continual peace and quiet has been amazing.

I've been at working from home since March, and miss having people around. Working in the basement can be lonely and isolating, so on breaks I always visit my kids who are 2 and 4.

Today my oldest is a little sick and since my wife runs a dayhome we're keeping him downstairs with me to watch paw patrol while I work. It's so nice having company. It's really made my day.

A charge has been laid in connection to a spitting incident in August that police believe was a hate-motivated crime against a drag king.
It occurred on Aug. 1 around 1 p.m., when a man spat on a drag king who was recording a video on the rainbow crosswalk at the intersection of Centre Street and Stephen Avenue.

I was on the patio of Mburger when this happened. I remember seeing the guy walk by us but didn't realize what had happened when he passed the drag king. Nice to see the follow up. Sad to see the source of hatred given is likely hatred received.

Every night my cat waits patiently for me to get off the couch and go to bed. The minute I do, she jumps up and sleeps in my her pre-warmed spot. She does it so often I’ve begun making sure I put her favourite blanket there when I get up.

Bonus points because her favourite blanket is a big Flames blanket. She seriously loves that thing.

It might be the cutest thing in the world.

As long as you don’t let it take a dump on your phone, which you then share a picture of on CP, it will remain cute.

I'd love to have a cat like that. Maybe I'll try again. My last one was the worst.

I got my bench up to 180, my squat up to 255, and my deadlift up to 300 this week. Finally lifting heavy again is such a great feeling.

bro, do you even lift?


I don’t know if these numbers are high, because I don’t lift, but I always picture you as a thin man with glasses. A jacked up philosophizer seems odd.

Damn reading that makes me miss my cat. She was such good company.
