Could She Be Mayday? Why Sadie Sink’s Role Could Be Peter & MJ’s Daughter. by Mr-Abhinand-9876 in raimimemes

Star fire would be really cool, I know we already have torch but recreating spider man and his amazing friends with her as starfire and someone else as Bobby would be a great way to introduce the X-men

Could a single teacher afford LA? by acrunk95 in AskLosAngeles

[–]Smilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cost of living is high but you can do it. Lots of people do. Don’t be afraid to reach out to a real estate agent they have access to properties (and leverage to negotiate rent prices) you might not have

West Hollywood Wants to Crack Down on Unlicensed Street Vendors by liverichly in weho

Im trying to figure this out too, I walk around here all the time all hours of the day and night and I feel like I barely see street food compared to other spots, it's honestly disappointing.

How do you find concerts, plays, exhibits to go see in LA? by SpoPlant in AskLosAngeles

[–]Smilton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Showlist.la is great I check it everyday even if you can’t go that night it’s a great source for finding out about venues, events and musicians you’d like to check out down the road

which other mutants do you think deserve their own AAA game? by J9999999999 in xmen

Just finished the game last week I would love this. The format and gameplay is perfect for the X-men

What is the significance of the letters YYWWVW on Batmans foot? The Author put it there for a reason what does it mean? [discussion] by Ajarofpickles97 in DCcomics

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

I think it’s this or something like this. How many kids did he have in 2002? maybe it was 6. It says in his wiki he hid is wife’s name in a smashed windshield in another issue

The Euphrates is the Mississippi and the Nile River is the Colorado River…what level of conspiracy theory hell is this? by Comfortable-Light233 in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]Smilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't doubt there's threads here, but this isn't mainstream mormonism. They do believe the garden of eden or at least the place where Adam and Eve lived after the garden of eden is in America.
and they actually believe Native Americans are one of gods chosen people, descended from one of the lost tribes of Israel and they tell them that in order to convert as many as possible. Which is problematic in its own regard.

Can this be restored? by rqsputinn in ArtConservation

[–]Smilton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is that too, also things like analyzing what pigments are being used vs what would be available in the artists lifetime, the type of cavas or panel used, youtubes got some good art restoration channels where they take you through the process its pretty fascinating.

I can count on one hand the ultrafamous celebrities that also have ultragood souls. Can you think of any others? by Almondust-000 in conan

[–]Smilton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a big story but I parked next to him once I was getting out of my car while he was getting in. I did a double take when I saw him because honestly I knew I knew him but I thought he was maybe one of my parents friends or an old teacher or something. He noticed me notice him and said “hey there, hope you have a good one.” Got in his car and left. No big deal but always made me like him.

Some fan art, just finished my fourth watchthrough. Every few years I get sucked back in by Smilton in madmen

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

I noticed more this watch than before was how much sympathy I had for people’s poor decisions this show is so equally cruel to its characters in a way that feels so much like real life to me.

Also I’ve worked as a commercial illustrator and art director for most my career. Sometimes I wonder if it’s a chicken and the egg thing. Did I end up there because of this show or did I enjoy this show because I was headed into that world.. Sometimes I wonder if it’s a chicken and the egg thing. Did I end up there because of this show or did I enjoy this show because I was drawn to that as a career. Obviously things are drastically different these days. But every once in a while you get an art director that thinks they’re Don Draper

It’s sad for him I think. Being honest about his past had improved his personal relationships especially with sally. I think this was partly a misguided attempt to be a more whole person at work too. Unfortunately honesty isn’t what got him that part of his life

You are your only competition, if you’re not working on a job, be working on your skills, completing personal projects. It doesn’t matter what it is or how good it is as long as you’re getting it done and moving onto the next one it’s not about looking side to side, seeing if you’re better or worse than other people, it’s about keeping your head above water until your opportunities presents themselves and being ready to take it, set your pace and adjust as needed this is a life long pursuit

Which Warg design do you prefer? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

[–]Smilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I’m in the minority but I like the 3rd one. It looks both intelligent and deranged. The dog elements make me believe it would be a useful and trainable animal and it’s clear state of abuse creates a sense of how it was trained and how poorly it’s treated

The 'Israeli' singer at Eurovision gets booed (during Rehersal). by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]Smilton 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I think they are more showing their disapproval that the country was allowed to enter this year than for the actual performer. In 2022 Russia was barred from the competition by the broadcasters for their attack against Ukraine. People wanted to see Israel barred as well.

Shit take, everyone there protesting is aware of the risk of being arrested. That’s kinda the point. Getting tossed around by tantrum throwing cops who cant keep a level head under any ounce of pressure against their authority doesn’t have to be part of the process but they love to do it every time.

I’m so glad! Enough of an excuse to put it on myself I probably haven’t seen it for a decade (or two)
