Gonna get my masters at another third rate university

According to psychology, the urge to immediately fix a partner’s or friend’s distress instead of just sitting with them in it isn't empathy; it is your own low frustration tolerance. When someone you love is hurting, and you instantly jump into problem-solving mode, offering unsolicited advice or trying to find a silver lining, you are often trying to soothe your own secondary anxiety. You aren't rescuing them from their pain; you are rescuing yourself from the discomfort of witnessing a vulnerability you don't know how to hold.

Britain is a mess because of austerity. Canada is following the same playbook

This. Kenney invited them all into the tent. Klein didn't let them in, no other conservative let them in.

Kenney is responsible for letting them into the party.

Marie Antoinette ist für deutlich weniger gestorben

Personally I wouldn't have posted this before any actual information about this shooting came out but then again I'm not the host of one of Canada's flagship news programs like @BenMulroney is

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

This account is being widely and irresponsibly speculative (in addition to WATERMARKING graphic videos, foul).

Cote-des-Neiges is a very diverse neighbourhood. Immigrants make up half the population and 135 different languages are spoken there.

The shooting was outside a hotel window and there is NO information as to the motive yet.

If conservatives are so sure being a tradwife is what makes women happiest, then why are they hiding the middle aged tradwife? Why not show young women what their life would look like 20 yrs from now?

No one is forcing you to stay at that soul-crushing job,” yes they are.
The threat of rent, bills, and homelessness is extremely coercive. Stop pretending choice exists in this setup.

Full time work should guarantee a full life, not just survival. If you put in 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, you should be able to afford rent, food, bills, and still have enough left over to enjoy life. No matter where you work, a full time job should provide a livable wage.

Let's be honest, Bruce "Spanky" McAllister would have been fired in any other province for calling for physical violence to be committed upon a child.

And I've a feeling he made other dismissal-worthy comments many times, prior to that

[Annie Dufour @anniedufour99]

Mr. Saad, my father is a surgeon and has been taxed at the maximum of the tax bracket since he started working. He worked 80 hours + weeks, nights and Christmas. Never has he complained about being taxed like this. He has always believed in wealth redistribution.
Stop the pity party, will you ?
And as you so "wisely" taught us, do not expect any empathy from from us.
Sincerely, Québec, Canada.

He's mad that capital gains taxes apply to him just as they do to every other Canadian resident. It's really quite something to watch this complete meltdown.

[Dr. Jane Clare Jones @janeclarejones]

The worst incidents of my life are from having to pay tax on all my money.

Please feel sorry for me, because empathy for rich people not wanting to pay tax isn’t the bad lefty suicidal kind.

[Andrew Leach 🇨🇦 @andrew_leach]

Area business school professor learns that deferred taxes are owed on capital gains and that, when you leave the country permanently, you have to settle your accounts. Of course, if you'd prefer not to have the capital gains, I'll take your accounts off your hands at book value.

Zionists had a meltdown when First Nations wanted this "human rights museum" (located on stolen Native land) to acknowledge Indigenous genocides.

They're doing it again because they're all about Indigenous genocides, here and in Palestine.

They're lying about false flags too.

@ayoair And you’ll have dumbass enablers in the comments excusing his behavior cause “he wasn’t in the right state of mind” should’ve let’em die.

[Vivian @suchnerve]

Being intentionally rude in just the right way is a highly effective strategy for cutting through someone else’s overwhelming thoughts, because it’s so unexpected to them that they can’t help but redirect their mind to trying to figure out why the hell you’d say that

[Vivian @suchnerve]

Lifelong non-suicidal people will see something like this and think “That’s horrible! How dare you say something so insensitive!” meanwhile people who have experienced long-term suicidal urges will be like “Haha yeah that’d do it”

[Insider Takes @InsiderTakes]

Gad’s family moved to Canada to escape war in Lebanon. Canada gave him a heavily subsidized public education through university, public healthcare, then a publicly subsidized job at a university. He should shut up, count his blessings, and pay his taxes.

[MondoAB @MondoABx]

This is crap.

The UCP has laid out what is going to happen.

Those that pay will get their surgeries. Those that don't, won't.

Even if they have cancer or heart disease, they will wait because of private surgeries taking precedence.
