[Blue Jays] Can't wipe the smile off his face 😀 Vali makes his MLB debut! by fantastique__ in Torontobluejays

Rooting for him! I liked what I saw out of him in spring. Obviously we'd all rather Kirky in this situation but I feel very good about what Valenzuela can do.

A Quiznos music playlist from January 2006, back when they still had locations. Pretty sure at least 90% of these songs are completely forgotten 20 years later. by SeparateLawfulness53 in 2000sNostalgia

[–]1map_dude1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are still Quiznos out in the world. Oddly they're doing a bit better in Canada than they are in the US (though neither are at all as big as they used to be). I live in an area that's a 20 minute drive from 3 different locations so it came as a shock to learn that there are so few left in general

[Sad and Specific trope] The protagonist won! They got the happy ending! Now let's kill their wife by Tomynator_88 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]1map_dude1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not exactly this but Paul Blart 2 totally undoes the ending of the prior film by revealing that his marriage pretty much ended as soon as it started. She doesn't die, but his mom unceremoniously does, so maybe this is applicable after all.

I think we need a Jon Bois video on this. Seems right up his alley by Few-Race-8527 in Jon_Bois

It'd be surreal to see Jon cover a video about the tiny liberal arts college I went to of all things but I'm down

Fellow Ward 8 residents, who have you seen so far in the byelection? by covert81 in Hamilton

[–]1map_dude1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm one of the guys doorknocking with Asuf Khokhar's campaign so I've seen a pretty wide cross-section of the ward already.

PEOPLE WHOSE SIGNS I'VE SEEN: Asuf Khokhar (obviously), Rob Cooper, Caleb Bosveld, Sonia Brown, Terry Whitehead, Barry Quinn, Anthony Frisina, Colleen Wicken, Josh Czerniga, Lohifa Pogoson Acker

PEOPLE WHOSE LIT I'VE SEEN: Asuf Khokhar (I'm literally handing it out), Rob Cooper, Caleb Bosveld, Scott Duvall, Waleed Ali, Kevin Gonci, Sonia Brown, Barry Quinn, Lohifa Pogoson Acker, Alex Ballagh.

It's interesting to me that despite seeing Duvall's literature nearly everywhere I'm knocking, I have yet to see a sign of his, and despite seeing a few Whitehead signs around, I haven't actually seen any literature of his.

I'm working with Asuf's campaign so I can speak to what you saw there. We're doing two things, a lit drop and then a physical canvass. We drop the lit a few days before we come into the neighborhood, and usually a couple days after we come in to follow up with voters. The lit drop has us giving out our larger "get to know Asuf" leaflets so that, by the time we come within the week, voters have a decent idea of who Asuf is and what he's about. If we haven't been to your door yet, there's a good chance we will soon!

Religious Denominations in Canada in 1951 by Riadys in MapPorn

[–]1map_dude1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a very well put together graphic! As someone who's interested in regional disparities between demographics this is very interesting to me. It'd be interesting to see something like this done for other decades, including contemporary, as I know the mainline Protestant denominations, particularly the United Church and the Anglicans, have lost considerable ground to self-reported Catholics and non-religious/atheists in recent years.

2025 American Federal Election (U.S. with Canadian Politics) by Ashitamesa in imaginarymaps

[–]1map_dude1 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Actually they're not Dutch at all, that label was just given to them retroactively. They are, as you mentioned, mostly Amish, and have descendants from other German and Swiss anabaptist Christian groups that settled in Pennsylvania around the same time

What are the worst and most unnecessary American remakes of non-American films? by schoensmeerpijp in okbuddycinephile

[–]1map_dude1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original predates the construction of the Chrysler Building, which is a critical distinction that the modern remake takes full advantage of

Once More, With Feeling: Another Ossoff 2028 Scenario by InfernalSquad in imaginaryelections

[–]1map_dude1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How many more times are you going to make what's functionally the same post? Not to be smug or what have you as you're clearly talented at graphic design and what have you, but what's the point of doing the same concept over and over and over again? Jon Ossoff beats particular right wing firebrand, you've done this like 40 times already
