How is Lena treated by her? Is this a respectful relationship where boundaries are respected? I don’t feel that some some self-aggrandized messages are enough evidence by themselves to make a clear evaluation of the situation.
If the relationship is toxic, absolutely block and move on. If there’s no other major concerns at the moment, monitor it and let Lena know she can come to you if she needs help or advice.
You are demonstrating symptoms of bulimia. There are better, healthier ways to lose weight that do not have long term negative impacts (messed up digestion, ruined teeth, poor relationship with food). Weight fluctuations are normal, especially if you’re still on puberty, which ends around 21. It’s also okay to like food!
Your parents (and probably others) are concerned about you and want to help you. You deserve better health and happiness that will come with a healthy relationship with food.
I wish you all the best in your recovery.
Yes , back in 2021.
Better start stocking up on leeches- next he’ll be promoting the 4 humours theory.
Get yourself a vacuum sealer for foods you can repack and freeze (ie: meat), and get items you need smaller quantities of at a local grocery store. Costco’s pharmacy has a very low filling fee, and the optical department has great prices. And, of course, you can get paper products.
I live in a 2 person household and use whichever is most sensible for what we need. In this economy, value for our money is important.
A teacher should not be bringing or consuming edibles on the job. It is negligence and something you can lose your employment and license over. The fact that students ate them makes it worse, but it was never okay to have them at work to begin with.
Canada phased out the penny from 2013-2013. It was an adjustment, but it was not chaos. Pennies of certain periods are still taken as legal tender and accepted by banks.
Per Wikipedia:
"Cash transactions in Canada are now rounded to the nearest multiple of 5 cents.[54] The rounding is not done on each individual item, but on the total amount, with totals being rounded to the nearest multiple of 5, i.e., totals ending in 1 or 2 round down to 0, totals ending in 3, 4, 6, or 7 round to 5, and totals ending in 8 or 9 round up to 10.[54] This is typical of cash rounding methods (not specific to Canada). While existing pennies will remain legal tender indefinitely, those in circulation were withdrawn on February 4, 2013.[55][48][56]
Based on technical specifications provided by the Mint Act, only pennies produced from 1982 to their discontinuation in 2013 are still legally “circulation coins”.[57] The Currency Act says that “A payment in coins […] is a legal tender for no more than […] twenty-five cents if the denomination is one cent.”[58] Nevertheless, once distribution of the coin ceased, vendors were no longer expected to return pennies as change for cash purchases and were encouraged to round purchases to the nearest five cents.[59] Goods can still be priced in one-cent increments, with non-cash transactions like credit cards being paid to the exact cent.[60] "
You can supplement light with growing lights. Grass requires both moisture and light to be successful.
That looks like a nice pen to use! It has some class and functionality.
TIL Americans still sign for credit card transactions.
Canada had moved over to chip reader machines by 2012. Now that tap payments are common, I don’t even have to enter my PIN under a certain amount. I haven’t signed for a credit card transaction for over 10 years.
Interestingly enough, I looked this up recently in my not AI mushroom field guide.
OP might find that some plant saucer/drip trays would be a suitable solution.
If you wish to immigrate, navigating government pages and submitting a seemingly endless sequence of documentation will become your reality for years of your life. Getting used to it now will save you future hardship.
Do you live near a university with a dental program? You can usually get cheap work done by student dentists, but there is a longer wait for appointments (UBC has such a program : https://www.dentistry.ubc.ca/treatment/how-to-become-a-patient/).
Not sure if you’re in the lower mainland area or not. It might be worth checking out what’s available to you in your region.
The province of Ontario revoked his professional license to practice.
You should watch the original Jurassic Park movie - it’s a great film. Jurassic World was a soulless reboot.
The photo is a bit blurry, so it’s unclear what the white specks are. With limited information, it could possibly be
There’s an entire anti-ai community on Lemmy (fuck ai). It shows up on my main page regularly.
