I was thinking about this one too. Not sure if I'll buy it, but it's the only one I'm considering at the moment.
I'm not Canadian, but I'm on lemmy.ca and like it very much.
I just tell Boone to catch up when he's done playing with the cazador and very casually run the other direction as fast as possible...for exercise.
I just saw yesterday that one of my favorite bands is playing nearby this summer with a 3PM start time!
Then I saw there are 6 bands in the lineup and they don't even tell me what order they are playing in. I don't want to watch 6 bands in a row, 2 or 3 is plenty, then let me go to bed at a reasonable hour.
I use a budget app for tracking income and spending on a transaction basis and then keep the rest of my finances in spreadsheets.
I adore Navajo Tacos! Ironically, they are a post colonial invention that was the result of the US forcing the Navajo into concentration camps and issuing them rations of flour, sugar, and lard. The Navajo people invented fry bread with their limited ingredients, which became the base for many other foods later on.

Depending on how old you are, you might just be hitting the normal midlife low point. It hit me hard in my late 30s and I spent a lot of time reading about it once I found out it was typical. I think a lot of it has to do with the rate at which you're experiencing milestones and life changes. It feels like you are constantly progressing in your life up to your 20s or 30s and then the time scale suddenly shifts. Things take much longer to advance - saving enough for a house or retirement, that next promotion (assuming you even want one), major family changes, etc.
Understanding that helped me recover somewhat, though it still took a couple of years. I'm still in that lull, trying to figure out what I really even want to do next, but I don't feel sad about it anymore. I don't know if this applies to your situation, but I found it really helpful to learn about it.
Like a leveraged buyout, I love it! Borrow all the money, give the debt to the acquired entity, let it pay itself off.
I've never asked for time off, only informed my boss that I will be off. I have only had push back twice. Once, when I was in high school my boss said I couldn't, so I quit on the spot (nothing to lose in a minimum wage job when my parents were still supporting me). A few years later, a shift lead (who was not technically my boss) challenged me, I told him I wasn't asking for the day off, I was providing advance notice that I would not be there that day.
The irony is that I now manage people who have an attendance policy. I try to make sure people have plenty of opportunity to plan time off so they don't have to call out. They're going to take the time either way, I may as well know in advance.
New users? We should ask the German communities to do the sturgeon thing again, that was fun!

I had to type a bit to check, but found that I mostly use the right shift if the letter I'm capitalizing is on the left side of the keyboard. Oddly, it wasn't 100% though.
