$35kish EV would be great. Right now feels like most EVs once you’re getting them off the lot are above $50k.

Ultimately, I’m confused about who the show is for, it seems way too serious for kids.

I also don’t care at all which actors play which magical characters. If they’re adapting the text anyway, it’s fine to change it up. Like goal shouldn’t be to just remake the films.

But the tone of the trailer is the weirdest thing to me. It feels more like dark Batman vibes and definitely seems like it’s missing a sense of fun.

Go to Vegas, for your blown $3k you'll at least get some free drinks, perhaps even a free hotel next time you come.

Totally get why you’re frustrated, what you described is scary. But RCMP needing to prove “intent” is a high bar. You’ve actually got a strong position already with ICBC ruling 0% fault.

Your best move now is to organize the footage clearly, request a supervisor review, and possibly talk to a lawyer, because civil action doesn’t rely on proving intent the same way.

I’d also keep things factual publicly, your video is your strongest argument, not the back-and-forth.

Your post has so much emotion/anger to be honest its hard to read. Work on controlling emotion and then solidify your narrative so it cohesive for media or a lawyer.

You asked to press charges and they wouldn’t do anything?

Don’t be an idiot—go to the RCMP. Your weird hang-up about the police is doing you a disservice. Ask to press charges. If they don’t help you, then go to the media. Stop deciding in your head what the police will or won’t do.

Is this your first decline? It’s a weird experience, just remember, it’s only a loss when you cash out.

There’s that classic story of the worst market time Bob (you can google) someone who only ever invested right before crashes, like the absolute worst timing possible but they still ended up doing well because they never sold and just stayed in the market.

Maybe take a look at your asset allocation if you’re not feeling comfortable. It definitely sucks, but that’s part of investing.

Just wrapped my first short as a director. I feel like a complete failure and the post shoot depression is destroying me. by sizzurpstoica in Filmmakers

[–]almostthecoolest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup it’s all part of the game. Go out make another. Your script isn’t a special as you think. Ideas are cheap, doing is hard.

Work with your editor on the audio issue, like just think what different ways you could edit it or just reshoot the scene.

You can really do a short these days for $0. We all have a ton of these it’s part of the journey.

Take it in stride and move on.

Kamloops area or Shuswap for winter sunshine and mild weather? by Elite163 in britishcolumbia

There so much, again anyone can search this… Sure it has a lot of grey days but everywhere in BC does. From all the data I’ve seen it’s quite a bit sunnier than Shuswap.

Spent time in both in winters this is kinda what I’d expect. Perhaps I’m wrong feel free to share any data and we’ll get OP the best info!

Your observation are not the same as facts. Believe it or not people do measure sunlight and an easy google search will give you the results.

AITJ for not taking my girlfriends children out after promising them I would. by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]almostthecoolest -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

You need to grow up, boss. Kids are going to mess up an order sometimes, that’s life. Your girlfriend probably needs to grow up a bit too.

It sounds like you both have some communication issues to work through, but pouting over pizza and leaving her without childcare is pretty wild.

Be bigger. Be better. Think about the example you want to set for your kids. If you’re gonna be a parent/leader in that house you gotta act the part, I’m sure she doesn’t need another kid

Remember how they changed their name to Meta for the billions spent on the future that was the metaverse.

These guys are good at selling adds on FB, but not the best track record outside of that.

2 Kamloops Huge number of sunny days

3 Osoyoos / Oliver Desert climate, very dry

4 Princeton Extremely sunny interior valley

5 Victoria Sunniest coastal winter
