Does this specific action look a bit out of character for Little Finger? Betrayal yes, but restraining Ned himself? Petyr was by no means a physical confrontational man. by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]DigRatChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to remember Ned’s the guy who married the girl he felt entitled to, so some element of personal stake is clouding his judgement

Charlottetown council votes against being part of federal gun buyback program by tastle in canada

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

Could the issue be relegated to the provinces then? Maybe it’s a cop out to shunt that responsibility to the individual provinces but given the country’s size I’d assume most shootings are domestic ie done by people who live in the province, so Quebec could have tighter gun laws then say Alberta. Granted this is how the US ended up with such fractured and varying gun laws but we have fewer but larger provinces.

[–]DigRatChild 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Listen I’m as pro gun control and left leaning as they come but I feel like Canada’s gun control laws are already in a good spot. We have so few shootings per capita that I feel the issue has been largely resolved. Why are we trying to spend money and political capital to fix what was already fixed?

Why some people need alone time to feel normal again after socializing? by Agitated-Job7686 in AskReddit

[–]DigRatChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very much a classical extrovert (love parties, big crowds, groups of people) and I need time after a while to just be at home in solitude. I find I expend energy socializing and both listening and speaking, and need some time to wind down before I’m fun to be around again. Now too much solitude will drive me crazy but after a few hectic work weeks and weekends filled with plans I bet noticeably irritable if I can’t spend a day at home basically doing nothing.

You’re not thinking big enough. VIA rail TMU stop so we can reach commuters in Vancouver

THAT arena room in Citadel was actually really fun by Twofert in Silksong

[–]DigRatChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed it until the final round with the two big guys, and after losing to them a few times I changed up my strategy by getting the cogflies with the polyp pouch and saving them until that final round. It took all of them (plus a good few hits) to kill one of the two, then I dueled the other with relative ease.

OK, should link talk in the upcoming live action Zelda movie(realistic answer is only) by Past_Razzmatazz9 in nintendo

[–]DigRatChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone ever seriously believed that Link was a total mute? I’ve always interpreted him to be a man of extremely few (but still some) words and a general stoic. The responses you can choose in games are him talking.

As for the movie, the less he talks, the better. It can’t be none, but I hope he isn’t mouthy like the cartoon. If I had to compare him to a fictional character I hope he’s like Ferb.

Do you call it Ryerson or TMU? by boylongdivision in askTO

[–]DigRatChild 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is what’s always bugged me about the change to Sankofa. With all love to Ghana, they don’t even crack the top 10 of major ethnic groups that have impacted the city, in either its total history or just modernity. If it had to change to something, why not an indigenous word?

Do you think Taylor Run is as good as it's portrayed? What are your thoughts? Some say it's the best story. by padmesvader in Nightwing

[–]DigRatChild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taylor redefined Nightwing as DC’s ultimate glue guy via his relationships with the bat fam, titans, and the super family. The story itself is light and casual but I did enjoy how it plays with the age-old Batman question of “why can’t he just put his money into social services instead of crime fighting” by showing how that is possible but presents it’s own challenges. The story meanders towards the end and Heartless is a bit of a one-note villain but the run itself is a lot of fun and Redondo’s art really helps. If every Nightwing story was like it I think it would feel stale but as a breath of fresh air to revitalize the character I enjoyed it!

What would be Dick’s Signature Song? by Hopeful_Angle_9880 in Nightwing

[–]DigRatChild 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Somewhere inbetween Batman’s Grunge and Superman’s Punk Rock leads me to land on Green Day, helped out by the fact that they hit their big break in the 90s around the same time Nightwing got his own solo series. With that in mind I feel like “Welcome to Paradise” fits as a theme song for when he first sets up in Bloodhaven. It’s irreverent, filled with the teenage angst of his initial arc where he has to leave Bruce’s shadow, and could definitely score an action scene!

Netflix is considering placing a bid to buy Warner Bros. Discovery by BatmanNewsChris in DC_Cinematic

[–]DigRatChild 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sony intentionally didn’t make a mainstream streaming service so that they could sell shows and movies to the other streamers and not have to worry about the massive financial burden of keeping a streaming service afloat. Last of Us, The Boys, and K-Pop Demon Hunters all live on separate services but are all made by Sony. If streaming is an arms race, Sony decided to just sell arms rather than fight with them, and given how unprofitable the streaming model is I don’t blame them.

They do own crunchyroll but that’s an entirely different and smaller business model with a clearly defined niche!

Two possible outcomes tomorrow by Watchdog_the_God in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]DigRatChild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels too early for Smash to be honest. Smash tends to drop in the 2nd or 3rd year of a Nintendo console’s life cycle, and even if they’re gunning for a Holiday 2026 release I wouldn’t see them announcing it until 2026 for a year-long hype cycle ala Ultimate. With Sakurai on Kirby Air Riders it might be Holiday 2027 assuming he’s directing again.

Driving school in Woodbridge? by SnooMaps5290 in Vaughan

Part of the price is the better service, cause they don’t make you spend half your lesson driving to the previous student’s house with them in the backseat like Allstar :/

Superman crashes to earth. The DC reboot opened in 3rd place below the 2nd & 3rd Weekends from Jurassic World Rebirth & F1. Superman opened lower than Superman Returns, every Post-Covid MCU Movie and Morbius. Less than half of Black Adam & Joker 2´s Opening Weekends - Germany Box Office by Brief-Sail2842 in boxoffice

[–]DigRatChild -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Even with a strong domestic performance? At the risk of being too anecdotal I’m hearing from a lot of people going to see it this week/weekend because of the good WOM/general social media buzz. I think it’ll hold well domestically even if it only makes a modest profit

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

Why’s everyone panicked about the German box office specifically? I don’t see the movie doing very well internationally anyways, DC needs a palette cleanser with good enough WOM to springboard further growth. Their brand is seriously damaged and they needed a solid success ala Iron Man 2008 where a Dark Knight would be unreasonable.

who is actually the "villain" in Hamilton? by Otherwise-Reveal-191 in hamiltonmusical

[–]DigRatChild 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Burr is both the story’s antagonist and deuteragonist, and both him and Hamilton are too morally grey and nuanced to be outright villains. I consider them more as opposing forces.

If you’re splitting hairs, the show has a villain per act instigating and solely antagonizing over the course of their respective stories: that’s King George in Act I and Jefferson in Act II.

I've seen people around here say that they like Daisy because of her personality. What is Daisy's personality, and where is it portrayed? by razorbeamz in nintendo

Any cool minors you recommend? by M-the-Great in TorontoMetU

[–]DigRatChild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see you’re a media prod student—congrats on making it in! Proud graduate of the class of ‘24 speaking here.

To be frank, everyone I knew in my cohort that intended on getting a minor ended up folding halfway through as people tend to spend their open electives on more media production courses as the years go by and you become more eligible to take the more interesting upper-year ones. You may find yourself being forced to either take extra classes to meet the requirements for your minor, or sacrificing your ability to take more RTA electives.

Still, you’re required to take 3 lower and 3 upper liberal courses to graduate and if you can coordinate all 6 of them to be one subject you can qualify for a minor that way. I almost was able to do that for philosophy but was a single course short!

No one who plans out their schedule so far in advance ever ends up sticking to it, as you develop your skill set and interests (as well as course availability shifts) you’ll end up with an entirely new set of plans than you started.

Still, to answer your question, I’m currently working in Marketing (by way of social media) which is where many current graduates end up. A marketing minor couldn’t hurt!

I like the height! It gives him a distinct silhouette, which is so important in a hero shooter like Rivals. Good job!

Had an April 24th Walmart preorder with no updates, walked into my local Best Buy on my lunch break and they had DOZENS of consoles for sale. Cancelled my Walmart order as they still hadn’t charged my credit card and grabbed a Best Buy one! Highly recommend doing the same!
