I feel like judges that come from public defenders office or prosecutors office that serve as civil judges rule wrong extremely often. Also, I feel like they’re super insecure about not knowing what they’re talking about and they mask that by ruling before fully hearing people’s arguments out since the arguments might confuse them.

Alarming, but not surprising.

Why do you think this? Not in the legal profession, so very curious

I think most of the issues in criminal are decently straight forward. And I think both offices have HUGE caseloads so they never have time to really develop any deep or critical thinking on really fine legal issues. So whereas most of the legal profession is all about splitting hairs; they’re all about just making broad strokes. And then they become civil judges and have zero experience with the civil issues and minimal experience with thinking critically on fine legal issues. And on top of that, since they’re used to being trial attorneys, they’re used to pretending they know everything even when they don’t - and that attitude on the bench sucks for the litigants.

That’s a broad statement- I sometimes hear generalizations about judges who used to be prosecutors, or judges who used to be public defenders, but not often an overlap

If I've maxed out my TFSA, should I continue investing through an RRSP or a personal investment account?

For context, I also have a good pension. My main concern is that while the RRSP will be nice to lower my taxable income now, I'm worried when I retire I'll have to withdraw too much from both the RRSP and pension. Thoughts?

After I max out my:

1.) 401k for the year
2.) My HSA for the year
3.) ROTH IRA for the year

What do people invest in after that? Whats the most tax advantaged way to save once you have maxed all of the above out?

I love my SO but get unsure....they just went on a friends trip and came back and randomly said going on another one in two weeks. I said I wanted to spend time together so they came back next morning and said let's go away just us instead, which is awesome and I am happy BUT is it a red flag? They used to always be all about spending time together and now seems like I have to remind them to put us first in the past month. We both work hard and have kids so life is more complicated. Vent over.

I think non-inclusive teams aren't revenue-efficient, but also aren't morally bad. Most just want to live in their bubble and not have their lives disrupted. If people want coworkers to talk football or cricket or fashion or LGBTQ+ rights with, that's entirely their prerogative. Companies and teams aren't just money printers, but also communities. You can't expect to fit into all communities.

I'm feeling a lot of anger towards my manager (now he's acting normal but there were moments where he was condescending/dismissive/mocked my and others work/arrogant/said stuff was "wrong" constantly/belittling the difficulty of tasks etc. in the past project).
Maybe it is "standard chewing out" but it bothered me a lot. So much that I find myself still getting all fired up inside thinking about it...
Idk how to let go of this :/ Thoughts?

On the topic of intimacy with partners… I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years and the past year his libido has dropped to zero. Mostly due to work stress (he says). Whenever I try to initiate, he always shuts me down and says he’s not in the mood. I even touch him and he gets hard but stops me as soon as I try to unzip him. We went from once a week to maybe once a quarter.

I’ve talked to him about it and he says I should take care of myself. So frustrated. 😭😭
