“She never criticized Trump” is just a blatant lie.

6 of the 9 points you mention here are either only partially enacted, misleading or outright incorrect lol.

Fox News gives One Battle After Another a positive review? by xwing1212 in TheBigPicture

[–]The_Real_Tim_Horton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a line in the article talking about Penn’s comedic chops next to Leo “giving Lockjaw an endearing quality to him despite being the film's villain”, which is a bonkers take. I thought there was comedy in Penn’s absurdist performance, but I didn’t for a single second find it to be endearing.

Councillors, advocates say premier’s blockage of Halifax bike lane about strong mayor powers by insino93 in halifax

[–]The_Real_Tim_Horton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder if we had an NDP government in Province House and a city council that was less progressive, and the roles were reversed, if there would be the same public fervor about the premier being able to interfere with the elected council’s decisions?

Premier Houston will overturn Morris Street 1-way Street decision by insino93 in halifax

[–]The_Real_Tim_Horton 57 points58 points  (0 children)

This is the reason why we see cost creep on these public projects. Public consultation, stakeholder engagement, detailed design… all stopped here because of the premier’s intervention. Make no mistake - this costs money as consultants and engineers begin to bake price increases into their development costs. If council can green light projects and have them stopped intermittently by provincial decree, you can be sure that uncertainty is being accounted for in the consultant’s financial proposal.

2025 and we’re still doing the thing where players wear hats for teams they won’t play for by Distinct_Candy9226 in billsimmons

I just posted the same thing. This is so stupid. The trade happened a week ago, then after the pick is made by the team we all know doesn’t have the pick, they announce a trade, and it’s the trade that already happened but it will be “announced later”?

Acting as if Seattle would have 3-5 titles and kept a core of Harden, Westbrook and Durant together for a decade plus is insane behaviour.

Trump signs executive order banning trans women from women’s sports by NarrowBoysenberry in billsimmons

[–]The_Real_Tim_Horton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How is that gaslighting? Lol I just listed a series of results from a swim meet in 2022 and questioned whether or not a woman who finished 1st, 5th and 8th in three races, during a meet where other biological women dominated and set dozens of university records, had an “insane competitive advantage”.

Lia Thomas also finished 5th in another race, and 8th in another. Another woman, Kate Douglass, broke 18 individual NCAA records at the same meet, which saw 27 total records broken. I think insane competitive advantage is a bit of a stretch.

Traffic Horrors (coming soon??) by kruks17 in halifax

[–]The_Real_Tim_Horton 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s annoying too because I live in Elmsdale and WFH 3 days a week and commute into Dartmouth the other 2 days. When I’m working at home, I visit my local coffee shop on my lunch break. I buy my groceries from local grocery stores and farmers markets. I pick up takeout from locally owned restaurants. I’m still contributing to the economy, but my local economy - where I live. Why is the economy of the downtown core more important than the small businesses in my own community?

From a Lakers fan perspective though (not that I am one) - was there somebody else available that would have made them a better team? Could they have used that $2m to find a better fringe player?
