“I wouldn’t fash masel’ about them, miss. Them things be all wore out. Mind, I don’t say that they never was, but I do say that they wasn’t in my time. They be all very well for comers and trippers, an’ the like, but not for a nice young lady like you. Them feet-folks from York and Leeds that be always eatin’ cured herrin’s an’ drinkin’ tea an’ lookin’ out to buy cheap jet would creed aught. I wonder masel’ who’d be bothered tellin’ lies to them—even the newspapers, which is full of fool-talk.”:
I wouldn’t worry about them, miss. Those are tired stories. I’m not saying they were never true, but I am saying they haven’t been true as long as I have been alive. They’re good for tourists, but not for a nice young lady like you. The tourists from York and Leeds that are always eating cured herring and drinking tea and looking to buy cheap gemstones would believe anything. I wonder who would bother with telling lies to them - even the newspapers, which are full of nonsense.
“I must gang ageeanwards home now, miss. My grand-daughter doesn’t like to be kept waitin’ when the tea is ready, for it takes me time to crammle aboon the grees, for there be a many of ‘em; an’, miss, I lack belly-timber sairly by the clock.”:
I must be going home now, miss. My granddaughter doesn’t like to be kept waiting when dinner is ready. It takes me a long time to get up the stairs because there is so many of them; and, miss, by this time I am already very hungry.

As the Canadian and Alberta health-care systems struggle under the weight of increased pressureĀ ā whether that'sĀ rural emergency room closures, ambulance shortages, orĀ overwhelmed hospitalsĀ ā experts say arrangements like the one being offered at the Marda Loop clinic are becoming increasingly common.
Now hereās some bullshit. Clinics like these that charge membership fees can skirt around the Canada Health Act stipulation that people canāt be charged for āmedically necessary servicesā, because if you pay a membership to receive clinic services, they arenāt technically charging you for the services themselves.
Iāve said it a thousand times, but privatizing healthcare is NOT the answer to the troubles weāre having here in Canada. Provincial governments are letting these systems fall to shambles so they can say ālook, public healthcare doesnāt work!ā as their excuse for choosing to further privatize things for their own benefit.
Alexandre Dumas wrote the stage play Le Vampire aka The Return of Lord Ruthven the Vampire, a sequel to Polidori’s The Vampyre.
In it, Lord Ruthven returns and confronts a female Ghoul called Zizika who raises the dead, and they become deadly rivals over human prey. Female vampires and a fairy are added into the fray.
So in 1851 Dumas wrote fanfic for The Vampyre and created several OCs for it.
Waiting for people to fuck up so you can cancel them, gatekeeping, communities self-policing to the point of self-destruction, debating each otherās validity, communities infighting over terminology, fighting over the Best way to exist, trying to define what a Bad Community Member is/does, vilifying those people.
Besties I think we fucked up and internalized the surveillance state or the omni-present judgment of god or purity culture or perhaps just maybe all 3
