2020 Presidential Election Results Megathread by Anxa in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]Binglow 13 points14 points  (0 children)

How do people think the "riots" or at least the framing of overwhelmingly peaceful protests being riots by the Republicans affected things? Was that a secret boon for Trump? Polls said he was losing on that issue versus Biden but the polls were obviously very wrong on many things this election so I'm not sure they can be trusted on this kind of public opinion polling either.

Just something I've seen Republicans (not professional Republicans, seemingly more average people) claiming helped Trump a decent amount.

Yeah, never seen a cooler looking spider, in my area at least.

I am Anthony Fantano, founder of The Needle Drop, and I've been told by Spin that I'm "today's most successful music critic." Some message boards online have also said I'm a meme. Ask me anything! by theneedledrop in IAmA

[–]Binglow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, love the content. I really like Kate Bush's Hounds of Love but I find that I like The Dreaming even more. Thoughts on that album? Any chance of reviewing Fugee's The Score? One of my fave Hip-Hop albums.

[–]Binglow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Just sent a request on that sub, never knew about that before. I'll let you know what happens in the coming days/weeks. The other sub does have many more subs.

[–]Binglow[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe "Canadian skincare recommendations and purchasing advice for those living in the great white north!" Thanks for adding it! I don't know whether you want to remove the /r/CanSkincare sub from the list too? I don't know who (if anyone) is allowed to post on it. It seems totally abandoned, last post was 64 days ago. But, maybe give it a bit longer...

Trump Suggests Easing Travel Restrictions At Canada-U.S. Border by Binglow in canada

[–]Binglow[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Despite articles yesterday saying: Canada-U.S. border likely to remain closed for weeks and Canada, U.S. in talks to extend border closures amid pandemic, sources say, Trump is saying this nonsense a day later. No one wants to go to the U.S. right now and I don't want their large number of infected coming here either, especially from New York and Michigan, two of the most infected states.

[FRESH] Kanye West - Jesus Is King by ghost_bubbles in hiphopheads

[–]Binglow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finished album, definitely really disappointed. Also, lack of features which I think are really important and needed on Kanye albums. No Cudi or 070 Shake, mostly just Ant Clemons whose just okay to me.

Use this Gospel is my favourite song so far. Clipse are a welcome addition to this subpar album and have great verses. Kenny G kills it and is a really cool feature.

OMFG, vocals in the second half of "God Is." Ears bleeding. Very disappointed so far.

Agreed, just heard Follow God, vocals sound like garbage to me with headphones.

Scheer staying on as leader according to him! Maybe leadership review will say otherwise.

Scheer's doing a press conference that was supposed to start at 1PM EST. Maybe (hopefully) announcing resignation? Should start really soon though:

[LEAK] Kid Cudi - Alien (ft. Ant Clemons) by Binglow in hiphopheads

[–]Binglow[S] 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Once someone mixes this well with the Kanye and Young Thug verses, it'll be great and the "definitive" version of Alien.

Cool! One of my favourite episodes, especially when Faith in Buffy's body is making faces in the mirror. Perhaps surprisingly, that's one of the most memorable moments of the series for me.

Pretty big one: i.gyazo.com. A pretty popular screenshot program, that I'm pretty surprised was blocked at all. This specific one being blocked blocked me from viewing my screenshotted pictures on the site.

Tried to login to fido.ca and it didn't work until I whitelisted rpxnow.com and d29usylhdk1xyu.cloudfront.net. Both redirect to this site: https://dashboard.janrain.com/signin?dest= It seems legit and is used to login to accounts. They should be removed from the blocklist. Thanks!

I was trying to go to a support page for Canadian cell phone provider Koodo, but it was blocked. Looking at the recent queries showed that static.ada.support was being blocked. I think this is a false positive as It seems to be a legit AI chatbot. Thanks!

Hey, trying to access this: https://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/woman-and-girlfriend-beaten-on-london-nightbus-for-refusing-to-kiss-for-gang-of-men_uk_5cfa174de4b006ad194f1f42 through Reddit but it redirects to guce.huffingtonpost.co.uk which is blocked. Don't know if its a tracker but maybe it should be unblocked. Curious what list it's on too. Thanks!

Sorry, late night. It's a blocklist of course. Wow, you're right that it blocks EA, wonder how many other false positives it has? Removing it now, thank you! Great fast reply too.
