I would be much more surprised if Trump and Co. weren't all Russian assets

Pretty wild how all these Republicans hated Russia more than anything else up until the last few years, and now they suddenly love Russia

1 in 5 homebuilders are nixing projects amid high rates. Here are your rights

My biggest complaint, as someone who's been working in the trades in Ontario since 2010, is that the amount of money that houses are worth has gone up like 400%, but the pay for the actual workers has barely gone up at all.

I remember when I first started working in a subdivision, there were billboards up saying you could get the cheapest base model houses for $200k. Those houses now are probably worth almost $800k, and the guys working in the houses probably make an extra couple bucks an hour compared to when those houses were selling for $200k.

So the developers are making huge money, the real estate agents are making huge money, the landlords and people who can afford these properties are making huge money too. But the people who actually build the houses make fuck all.

I fucking hate this world, all of us working class people need a general strike like right now.

Fuck the rich, fuck politicians, and fuck Doug Ford in particular

30's wheel of pain

I don't understand this. I'm 32, I've been working labour intensive construction jobs since I was 18, and before that I played football, rugby and hockey pretty much year round. I've been pretty tough on my body pretty much my whole life.

99% of days I wake up feeling completely fine. Some times I'll have a sore back or neck or something, generally from lifting heavy shit or just overworking. Then a few days of recovery, I feel fine. All these memes I see of 30 year olds acting like they are 75 are just so stupid.
