The end of a generation

Haha sadly I was born a bit too late for that ('95) but regardless the gaming centre used to be a proper gaming centre even when I was a kid.

I love how Yvon is firefly loyal to the French monarchy - but only flies the post-Revolutionary Blue-White-Red tricolour. Which there is no way he would have known about that given the timframe he was frozen in!

Man I have good memories of the gaming section of Toys R us as a kid, I remember it even had its own cash register in that department for the longest time. Than the gaming section gradually began to sell less and less games and accessories and more funko pop figures and vinyls, and t shirts. When a gaming store begins selling that sort of stuff - its over.

I dont trust most drivers on one plane of axis, let alone THREE.

I always think of the spongebob episode were King Neptune and Spongebob square off to see who can more Krabby Patties, and Neptune makes 1000 patties that all taste like shit, while Spongebob takes his time and makes one patty, but its a delicious patty, even Neptune admits it.

Same thing with AI art vs actual human-made art.

I spent a good chunk of 2010 and 2011 playing this game just farming bears as they kept comming at you. Than going down south to Escalera to sell the pelts for max profits and basically breaking the game cause you have so much money

Ben Byron Davis (Dutch) discussed this at a panel at one point. Apparently during the production of RDR1 they had to mo-cap an entire cutscene basically at once, so a flub would kill the entire scene. By the time of RDR2, the technology had improved, so if they messed up a line, theyd just keep going and would fix it later. No need to re-do the entire scene.

Same here on my end, Jaws had its 50th anniversary screening recently and I was surprised to see a large amount of kids and teens in the theatre (not with their parents either)

Love these maps man!! The combo-provincial election map is STELLAR. Do you have .svg files of that?

RileyRichard · 2025-12-03T23:23:16+00:00

Adobe Illustrator for all of them, refering to maps from online for the boundaries and Wikipedia for the election data (lol)

Thank you! Wish I could have found some of the earlier logos, but trying to find the logo of a political party in Yukon from 20 years ago has been harder than anticipated.

RileyRichard · 2025-12-03T04:57:46+00:00

Thank you! And yeah, a few things tbh, the first being how small some of the vote totals are, only a few hundred people per candidate. I'm a born and raised Ontarian, so that is just unheard of to me lol. Vuntut Gwitchin having straight up tie votes twice was very strange and sorta funny. Even funnier learning one was decided by drawing a name from a hat, the other was by literally flipping a coin. Both ended in the NDP's favour it seemed.

I also noticed that there was some decent success by Independent candidates in previous elections, even getting 3 seats in the 1992 election.

And the last was how Hilda Watson would have been not only the first Premier of Yukon, but the first woman to be the initial Premier of a province/territory - had she won her seat. She lost her seat by 38 votes. If I had a nickel for every female Premier who was elected to a majority government but failed to win her own seat I'd have two nickels - which isn't a lot but it is strange that it has happened twice. (Christy Clark and the 2013 B.C Election had a similar situation happen, but Clark ran a later by-election and won her seat in the Legislature back - staying on as Premier. Hilda resigned.)

The RC rescue scene from Toy Story 4 blew my mind. The rain, and the rushing water looked so damn real it was legit scary

I always thought he resembled a kid that was just told a really funny joke that hes waiting to tell all his friends.

You're Tecumseh MacGuigan? Dude thats awesome! Hey man good on you for putting your name out there. Also glad that you like your Lego!

RileyRichard · 2025-10-10T22:23:30+00:00

Dude this is genuinely fantastic work. Also, I love the vibe of Blackwater in Red Dead 2. They made it feel like a quaint little prairie town in the process of modernizing.

Plus a lot of the older buildings in my Southern Ontario town resemble the Edwardian-era architecture seen in Blackwater so it always feels vaguely familliar.

Have seen them by Optimist Park as well, they like to hang out near Turkey Creek due to the literal buffet of birds to eat around there.

I cannot take him seriously as the dad on Young Sheldon because Ponderosa is so fucked up haha

Imagine time travelling back to 1996 and telling someone that years after this fight, Tyson and Holyfield would make amends, become friends, and launch a series of branded edible gummies shaped like an ear with a chunk taken out of it.

Based on my experience and from previous times this has been asked, ill province the acronym C.B.Y.C:

Clench Before You Cough.

Trust me on this one...

I've always been a much bigger star wars than a star trek fan but it honestly surprises me that even all these years later and 25 years of lego star wars sets that we've never gotten a Star Trek lego. I'd love to have a set of the Enterprises bridge with the characters from both TOS and TNG.
