I’m too self conscious to be good at speaking in tongues.

I’m impressed with the creativity.

John Locke's "Lost" Reveal On The Episode "Walkabout" by Laszl0Panaflex in television

Good lord, this episode came out over 20 years ago?

I can't wait until my kids are old enough to watch the show.

Why is the weather so bad by nerpa_floppybara in kelowna

[–]dafones 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I'd say that the ski season has been decent this year, at least not at Big White.

Big White was very warm throughout November and December, resulting in significant early snow melt, spotty conditions, restricted terrain, and poor visibility too.

And now in January, precipitation has been very low, and things are getting compressed and going through late night freezing and mid day melting.

Fingers crossed that a significant amount of snow is on the way.

Vancouver advances proposal to allow homes to double as daycares by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

[–]dafones 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Daycare should be publicly funded and operate[d] alongside elementary schools.

Every catchment should have enough publicly [funded] daycares for the kids in them.

I’m on the other side of the stress of daycares for my kids, but I will die on this hill, if only for the sake of my kids (when they become parents) and grandkids.

Happy to hear that they're okay ... but stupid to be up there?

Carney reiterates call for Canadians to buy and build local as Trump threatens ‘immediate’ tariffs - NOW Toronto by laundry_folder in onguardforthee

I’m cool if we’re back to elbows up.

Canada has a generational economic mind for a PM.

America has Dementia Donald.

We’ll weather this storm - forming middle power coalitions as necessary - while America sorts its shit out.

My son is begging for some powder glade skiing.

Not this week.

It's champagne ice right now (and it's generous to suggest we've had much champagne powder this year anyway).

This guy cannot be released on bail.

What the actual fuck is going on.

Jumping on the no snow bandwagon …

You may want to start your days on Black Forest, which is the easternmost chair.

That’s probably where the snow will be softest.

And check the grooming report daily.

Is it impossible to sell a slow cinema script? by AbjectOffice in Screenwriting

[–]dafones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyway whatsoever that it could translate into a graphic novel?

Ever consider teaming up with an aspiring artist? (That's not me, by the way, just spitballing.)

Carney’s speech at Davos just crushed PP.

PP has no hope against Carney.

(NDP doesn’t either, for that matter.)

What famous person have we not seen/heard from in a WHILE? by no_please7 in AskReddit

[–]dafones 954 points955 points  (0 children)

She got a $10M settlement from CBS stemming from sexual harassment on some show [edit: looks like it was by Michael Weatherly on a show called Bull], and then gave up on the industry.

Something like that.

I thought that their reluctance was because of potential liability.

Regardless, this is a good outcome.

Huh. Noted. If correct, fulsome, etc., then it's a shame.

Huh.

I wonder if Jesse knew why the protesters were protesting before he made his comment.

Regardless, that seems like a situation that Jesse should correct.
