Just remember to feed it cheese instead of people and you'll have nothing to worry about

I've actually done controlled burns in Northern BC back when I was in forestry. We go in during the winter and burn up dead branches that have fallen during the year. The snow stops the fire from spreading and the burning depletes the excess fuel on the ground, making it harder for fires to grow out of control in the summer. The burning also releases nutrients into the soil and encourages a healthy undergrowth by making space for new plants.

As others have mentioned there are also some trees(usually pine) that require fire to spread seeds. Those controlled burns are usually reserved for public parks where they want the forests to have a more natural look. They are small fires created with drip torches, just enough for the cones to open before being put out. When mass producing those pines trees to replant a logged forest, we use ovens to open the cones instead.

Controlled flooding is also very much a thing we do as humans either to divert water from flooding other areas, or to rehabilitate soil. Its pretty common throughout the world. I would bet that you are unfamiliar with the practice because you live somewhere beavers are already doing it for free.

I remember this one well. We were without power for two and a half days. I got together with a bunch of friends and we went to each other's homes and barbequed all the food that was spoiling, smoking a fuckton of weed in between stops. Our small Ontario town turned into one big street party. The only shitty part was it happened during a heat wave so sleeping was a little rough.

Pretty sure you linked the wrong article. This one is about Chow's win in Toronto.

If you're a dude in a hetero relationship, the opposite rule applies here. Only cover your junk.

I have a little outfit I wear when my wife is sad. Its basically just a penis-shaped sock with red and white stripes to make my dick look like a candy cane. In the rare case that doesn't immediately inspire smiles or laughs, I stand up and helicopter it. I've been doing this for over ten years now and it has never failed to cheer her up.

Feel free to pick one up and try it yourself, they're dirt cheap! https://loveshop.ca/products/tuggie?srsltid

My mom did that on my 13th birthday. Then the next day she had my alcoholic aunt over, who proceeded to steal all the money from my mom's purse. Aunt never appologized and still drinks, but my mother expects me forgive this woman so we can pretend to be a happy family.

This is not the sole reason I haven't spoken to or seen my mother since the pandemic, but it was a big part of the last conversation I had with her.

M here. I own 3 but this post is reminding me to throw one out I never use. My wife has 3 as well. Depending on what you classify as a toy, we also own between 4 and 12 things we only use together.

There is nothing wrong with owning as many sex toys you want as long as they're used responsibly. Don't feel bad if anyone judges you for it, just feel pity on their sorry ass for having a less enjoyable sex life.

Winter reminds me of you. As does a sloppy joe. https://youtu.be/oMQLBl_ihwg

There are many rural parts of Canada where A & W is the only fast food choice. I've noticed this is especially true for service stations west of Ontario. I spent my twenties living on the road and got stuck eating A & W so much I can only stomach their chicken these days.
