Exactly! These stories need to be heard, especially by those who can still stand to learn from it.

I like that

Hey now, sometimes I can use the momentary boost of hearing these stories.

At my hat?

Yeah, it was a really weird watch for sure.

There was like 8 mins of this already available and first aired episode is basically this remade.

Adorable.

Struggle to empathize? I’m reading this with glee.

Yeah

Mercury poisoning of hat-makers – In 18th and 19th century England, mercury was used in the production of felt, which was commonly used in the hat-making trade at the time. Long-term use of mercury products often resulted in mercury poisoning-induced erethism among hat-makers. In the late 19th-century United States, a notable example occurred in Danbury, Connecticut, where hat making was a major industry. Instances of erethism were so widespread among hat-makers, the condition became known locally as the “Danbury Shakes.” It was characterized by slurred speech, tremors, stumbling, and in extreme cases hallucinations.

I got mad haters yo

don’t be Don, don’t be Don, don’t be Don

Oh thank God.

Just keep it private.

This is a problem because some religions are more visible than others. That’s a part that bothers me. A Christian can tuck their cords necklace into their shirt but what can a Muslim do?

Executive dysfunction?

I still will as I feel weird if I don’t, but on my days off when I have nowhere to go it’s not as easy if I don’t in the morning.

Give it a week or two.

I hastily compiled the collage using sources such as this one

He still doesn’t believe he’s the villain

You emphasize “some” but do we have any data and real numbers?

Genuine curiosity, while recognizing this is hard to measure as a lot of oppression can be internalized.

It’s not an easy discussion (and that’s fine).

That’s true. Still, I wonder if there’s any other hidden nuggets in mine you may have missed. I’m at 500+ (but some are likely from instances that no longer even exist).

The Canada I believe in is a mixture of cultures and beliefs. Saying they should assimilate to our (white) ways conflicts with that.

Edit: to be clear, I’m obviously not for oppression of women, but that’s not what it symbolizes to everyone. At a certain point they’re old enough to make their own choices and if they feel better wearing one I prefer to respect that.

It’s literally a piece of cloth.

Right…

Damn, I was hoping we wouldn’t have your type around here.

Edit: I really should have quoted the other part, I think you softened the wording (slightly). I just hate the attitude of “blend in or stay out”.
