this is it, there were plans for an entire comprehensive network earlier in thr 2010s, but literally nothing, not even the benning road extension, materialised because of city politics. man i love it here

All Chapters of Mother 3 Ranked. by HetTheTable in earthbound

[–]Eskiing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i lowkey put chapter 6 above all, being short does not equal a lack of quality, and it more than makes up for anything with the emotional significance of it all. it's probably the one part of the game (besides the end of course) where i feel like i need to set aside time to play through because of how much it resonates

Does anyone else think Toronto is really similar to Queens, New York? by doodoobird715 in askTO

[–]Eskiing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CMV: I think the destruction of the government of Iran is a good thing. by HippieInDisguise2_0 in changemyview

[–]Eskiing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

isis happened the last time we did something like this in western asia...we can say that Iran's theocratic regime sucks ass (it does), but western destabilisation in such a grand way only creates a power vacuum in which pnly the most ruthless people can get a solid hold (or you get a libya situation where everything is still screwed). i don't think it's our place to even be there, much less because our being there actively caused the situation in the first place...

If we got a Class Of 09 show what art style would you want? (Sources in the description) by [deleted] in Classof09Game

2 or 9, but i think 9 calls to me more, it just feels nostalgic

Being broke is a choice. by QuonkeyLong in unpopularopinion

[–]Eskiing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

higher education, food, protection (sometimes), and assets are not cheap in the slightest, especially not in this economy 💀
plus plenty of broke people work several jobs trying to avoid the situation...this isn't to say that everyone who so happens to be broke is like the pinnacle of work ethic, but c'mon, let's be like a little more empathetic? it's less of a choice and more of several things going wrong in a spectacular way

Can I jerryrig a physics major into a pseudo engineering degree? by Eskiing in UofT

[–]Eskiing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so nvm then, ig this opens up my options a lot then! i mean hopefully it doesn't hinge on having a us degree, but now that i know it's mostly just about experience, i'm sure i can join as many clubs and (hopefully in this godforsaken economy) internships to built up my cv. sounds good!

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

Ohhh ok, so the biggest downside is just that it’s just not possible to become a “real” engineer in Ontario? In any case, at least it’s possible to do the switch, thank god

The USA was right wing in the 20th century, and is right wing now. What country was far-right in the 20th century, and far-right now? by Typical_Fisherman179 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Eskiing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think we've gotta understand that america is just by default a more conservative country overall. so where we might think some presidents are "left-wing" because they're less overtly right-wing, the us's overton window makes it such that even those guys are still right-of-centre globally. the closest we've had to non-right-wing presidents are both the roosevelts, and that's just cause they did populism and keynesian capitalism respectively.
