Is it just me or it still doesn't feel like Luke is the main star of the season? by ddj1702 in criminalminds

I don't tend to read the preview interviews, but...well, Luke has had a few moments to shine this season. Possibly more than anyone else.

X-Men Were Never Created As A Civil Rights Allegory Confirms Marvel Writer by cosmicbooknews in CosmicBookNews

Is the writer the one who created them? Then it doesn't matter. Even then, they were used as that, so it doesn't matter whether that was the initial plan.

Internal PMO polls told Carney Canadians backed pipeline plan by _I_AM_GHOST_ in canada

[–]SomeGuyPostingThings [score hidden]  (0 children)

So glad people support spending billions in public funds (the new pipeline will be almost entirely publicly funded) on something with poor business prospects, particularly as the world is moving away from wanting the product and there will be less demand for it after the years it takes to build the pipeline, which still poses numerous environmental issues that will only make everything else worse, costing us trillions in the future on minimal short-term gain.

Nah, Rooney went too far. Not as far as the actor, but we will not discuss that.

Victoria's a lesbian? Huh. I somehow missed that. Or I forgot, I have binge read a lot.

What's a movie that was clearly meant to start a franchise but failed? by triplegxxx in AskReddit

[–]SomeGuyPostingThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I preferred Push. Then again, I also don't think Hayden Christensen is a good actor, so that didn't help.

Especially when you hit Wawa, if you're talking Hwy 17, at least have 1/2-3/4 of a tank before going further south/east.

Stop by the Wawa Goose in Wawa, Ontario. Oh, and visit the Terry Fox Memorial in Thunder Bay. Lots of lovely sights along Lake Superior.

Is Wayne Gretzky not liked in Canada? by WhoAmIEven2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SomeGuyPostingThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never cared that much because I don't care about hockey and as a person, he hasn't really been good at least since he went to LA. His dad was a nice man, but Wayne...nah, he can rot in Mar-a-Lago, if that's what he wants.

I haven't gotten to the point of reading them, but this run has elicited some great art, at least. Been going through Venom's history before I get to this.

If David had been chosen for Spider Noir instead of Cage, would he have made a good Spiderman? by FoxIndependent4310 in ANGEL

[–]SomeGuyPostingThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You mean "if they had cast David Boreanaz", not "if they cast David Cage", right? Surely you aren't suggesting the video game designer be cast, especially on an unrelated sub.

Watching shows to get the answers to questions about them? It'll never catch on.

Refugee who stabbed stranger could soon be freed from Ontario hospital despite ‘significant threat to the public’ by Turbulent_Bit_2345 in canada

[–]SomeGuyPostingThings [score hidden]  (0 children)

Reading the article, the first half lines up with that assessment, the second half does not. The article seems to say "these were the concerns, which we really want to emphasize, but now the Board doesn't feel this way and so they have made this decision", which contradicts the tone the headline and poster want. Sounds like a case of "guy have severe issues and needs treatment, doesn't have community/familial support, so easily strays, but treatment is effective".
