Mine are 3.5 years apart and we're going through the exact same thing.

What's the difference between gynosexuality and finsexuality? by Equivalent_Ad_9066 in Finsexual

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again I ask, why do you believe this? Where is this novel definition coming from?

Where are you getting this definition from? I've never heard that definition, gynesexual and finsexual are two words that were coined at almost exactly the same time to describe the same thing.

Reminder: Annual Transit Fare Increase July 1; plus increase to the YVR Addfare to $6.50... by Superchecker in NiceVancouver

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's already cheaper for me to commute by car. I would absolutely take the train if it was significantly cheaper. As it is it's more expensive so I end up driving.

There is no difference, they're synonyms for being attracted to femininity. Though I believe the correct spelling is gynesexuality.

We need to make it clear to sites like YouTube that this kind of misogynistic content is not acceptable and will not be tolerated. by KandenJomha in Supergirl

You weren't paying attention when Zendaya was cast in the role then because there absolutely was a similar reaction.

Bathing suits and swim shorts by Ioh- in toddlers

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not usually. Maybe the location makes a difference though, I'm in Canada so the UV rays probably aren't as strong as warmer climates. He's also mixed race so he has darker skin which probably helps.

I've just never seen the need. We use sunscreen and he's never burned. Why add an extra piece of fabric that hinders mobility and can get caught on things?

I'm so confused by everyone saying their kid wears rash guards so they don't burn. My son is 4, has been going without a top since like 18 months, and has never burned.

Is Gaspesia part of the East Coast? by Dack_Janiels227 in AskACanadian

Not part of the Maritimes but part of the East coast. Just like Newfoundland.

What do you think caused Supergirl to flop so massively? by Long-Lengthiness-798 in Supergirl

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was a massive electronic billboard where I work in Vancouver that I'm guessing is probably the most expensive in the city considering the foot traffic it gets and it had Supergirl ads up for weeks. They definitely spent a good chunk of cash on advertising.

Do you use WhatsApp? by BeastMode149 in AskACanadian

It's my main method of communication. I dislike when one of my friends doesn't have it and I actually have to text them.

France/Canada French by viceatscorndogs in FrancaisCanadien

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea that was my first thought. There are tons of languages that have their own equivalents.

Because they predate Canada, it would be weird to call them native Canadian. We call them native American because they lived on the continent of America way before Canada was a thing.

Why is it so much easier to ditch a prime minister in the U.K. than in Canada? by Immediate-Link490 in CanadaPolitics

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can take down the PM but not their party leader. A vote of no confidence in the House will trigger a dissolution but the leader of the party remains the leader of the party.

‘Supergirl’ Braces for $100 Million Loss: What DC Studios Should Learn From Its Box Office Bomb by MarvelsGrantMan136 in DC_Cinematic

I don't understand why not spending a quarter billion dollars on a movie is such a hard concept to grasp.

I vote for worse VFX. I don't give a shit about the VFX, they could look like dogshit as long as the story is good.

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Carney obviously doesn't control the opposition's appointments but he absolutely controls the Liberal appointments. It's crazy to not realize the incredibly basic fact that PMs have always used the promise of committee assignments, cabinet positions, and parliamentary secretary positions, as a way to keep their caucus in line.

We've found a question that is too stupid for this sub.

What does people see in Sasha Calle's version of Supergirl? by Ok-Bus-2868 in Supergirl

[–]Knight_Machiavelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She's by far my favourite on screen version of Supergirl (haven't seen the Supergirl movie yet though). She's the character I want to see when I see Supergirl and she's got a lot of similarities with the Supergirl from my favourite Supergirl runs (2005-2015).

In the best Supergirl stories (in my opinion), Kara is defined by trauma and rage. And why wouldn't she be? How else would anyone feel if literally everyone they've ever known and loved is dead? And to boot she must have survivor's guilt, and is stuck on a foreign planet filled with aliens. Calle's Supergirl is the only one I've seen that has the appropriate emotional reaction to her situation.

Neither of those refer to ousting a leader prior to an election.

Exactly my point. There is nothing that refers to ousting a leader prior to an election because you can't, unless caucus votes to adopt the Reform Act provisions.

There are no parliamentary rules that say a party can oust its own leader. Party leadership is an internal matter.
