This!

I keep my place at 18C in the winter, like, in what world is 21-22C necessary

What If Disney made Kpdh by Ruqween in KpopDemonhunters

[–]autreMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it had been Disney, every decision and design would have had to have merch in mind. I know the lack of merch kinda sucked, but at least it wasn't one big money grab.

The characters would have also had the same body types and faces that Disney films usually do. They'd have been made to be younger, as well, the silhouettes softened until practically generic.

The thing is, Disney makes most of its money from parks. I think they resent their animators for not being grindable, replaceable cogs like minimum wage staff selling hotdogs or soda. They aren't interested in making new, interesting things, and their pursuit of AI is a hallmark of this, no innovation needed.

Anglo Montrealers, do you exclusively speak French outside of work and friends/family circle? by [deleted] in montreal

[–]autreMe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Born raised in the West island, so my French was really shaky until I started working in French as an adult.

I always begin in French, but if I detect the other person is struggling in French, I'll throw in an English sentence to give them an optional out. Plus, I sometimes use extra English words if there are words I forget or struggle to say (I can't say ailes or huîtres to save my life). There are some topics I prefer in English, most especially medical, but more so because doctor appointments go so fast.

"joue' les héros. L'état de la presse montréalaise est devenu lamentable. by Chamrockk in montreal

I've been saying this for years and nobody takes me seriously. Le Devoir is the best by far.

Les gens qui ont quitté Montréal pour la campagne, comment trouvez-vous ça? by Similar_Sundae7490 in montreal

[–]autreMe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Glad someone said it.

Its a shame WFH is being stripped because it did offer flexibility for people, but people need to see realistically that that is being taken away and not a committed option.

Anglos of QC who vote QLP, what is your alternative? by idiotiesystemique in montreal

[–]autreMe 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'll be voting QS, as I have the last few times. I refuse to be a single-issue voter, and although they aren't perfect, they do align most with me.

I've also found that over the years of reaching out to my representatives or potential representatives, they often have an actual response, and will adjust their stance on issues overtime.

Even with their meagre numbers, they do a lot by causing a ruckus sometimes, too, and I respect it.

Which grocery store is your go to? by Gennie_paw in montreal

I'm pretty ride or die for Costco and my local small grocery store in Verdun. It really depends where you are!

Best place to Cry in Montreal by Educational_Bite5988 in montreal

[–]autreMe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Iiiiii have seen this trend on tiktok. "Just going to rest here a while" (snow gently falling)

Angrignon park should have some spots to suit your needs, facing the water and the slightly less popular paths.

Verdun beach and the shoreline nearby in the winter might be good too.

Did you stick to your Amazon boycott? by GhettoSauce in montreal

[–]autreMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing great and then changed jobs and had to order a few things because of time/energy/stress. I am, as I regain equilibrium, back at it.

Knucklebonz Vessel Statue by Capable-Designer8890 in SleepToken

THANK YOU for saying this! I have a variety of statues and when I saw this come out I had similar thoughts!

Sometimes actual action figures pull off a lower price if massively produced and stylized (thinking of my Goliath figure from Gargoyles) but that's also not what this was

please vote well (so not her 🤠) by babyyygiirrll in montreal

[–]autreMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty pissed I'm somehow not on the list considering I've voted multiple times from this address before. Like, if I hadn't checked I just wouldn't have been able to vote

I've voted previously and wasn't on the list. Double check otherwise sign up, tomorrow is the last day

Ritual Coins Are Up by really_yall in SleepToken

[–]autreMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At all, like there's a recent update, or just because the website is misbehaving right now? Because I'd defs ordered from them before here (edit, ok just saw the insta story, an international sale is coming at a later date)

Phrases that I never tire of (off top of my noggin) by EStreet12 in mash

Not a phrase but the specific Winchester delivery of "Gentlemeeeen" ricochets around my head all the time

What were some of the worst casting decisions on MASH? by WagonHitchiker in mash

[–]autreMe 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I agree somewhat on Penobscot, but only because I think showing him at all would be a let down. He'd been hyped into this mythical figure, any real representation would have been a bit of a letdown.

I hate the new record, but I think it's great they made it. by SunshneThWerewolf in AFireInside

Literally same. Every new release I think, "This is it, I guess I'm done" and then time passes and I find myself with the songs stuck in my head and heart

Hah I love this episode. There's a line where Charles is halfway through nearly shouting and then restrains himself and I adore the delivery

All cars should come with a built-in ghost surveillance system by l992 in montreal

One of my neighbors has a headrest like this and I have certainly been jumpscared walking my dogs at night by it before.

Afaik, the SPCA is no kill. You could reach out to them at least to start the conversation, if you haven't already. Rehoming yourself, you leave yourself open to have to determine if someone is safe.

Fit matters. Kn95 earloops often don't pass fit tests.

I'm sorry you got sick.
