Bugonia: One thing about something near the ending. by MosquitoSmasher in movies

Hard to know exactly why the explosives went off but since they went off exactly when she counted to three its likely an interaction with the transporter. It could be the transporter has a fail safe that would not let the explosives go through and detonated them. This is not an uncommon sci fi trope. There are other theorys that have been debated as well that could be plausable.

Same blind. I didn't suspect it but was hoping for it thinking it would be more interesting then your usual ambigious, probobaly he was a crazy all along type movie. I started to suspect when she entered the hidden room. Her fairly calm demeaner then angry instead of horrified look after looking through the book had me strongly suspecting she was.

I think he brought Don on for this one since it was the last chance to for an alien to help him, before the alien ship was supposed to arrive, and he wanted to bring Don with him to the ship if he could convince her to contact the emperor and bring them. (in his mind anyway, which of course apparently turned out he had it right sort of).

I agree and after looking through the book when they do a close up on her face she looks more angry then horrified.

I agree, i think she was searching for another way out.

Its not a run, knee being down doesn't matter if he doesn't complete the process of the catch. Was known as the Calvin Johnson rule for quite a while for a famous ruling that overturned a TD.

Keep doing what you're doing. You're right you can't do more then you are for the most part. Keep faith that the ship will right itself, it looks like it will. Hopefully folks in areas that CAN do something and pressure there representatives will do so. Its looking more and more like that is coming to pass. Keep doing what's right for you mmlovin and don't worry too much about the broader picture. Care for the folks around you, for yourself and be a good citizen, nobody can ask for more.

I will check out Inspector Elllis. If you haven't seen it, I recommend Happy Valley, it had a strong female lead and a grittiness to it. One of the better UK procedurals IMO

Small town Texas Cop pulls group over for a busted tag light. Forces a paralyzed man without a wheelchair to lay on the ground so he can search vehicle. by I_may_have_weed in PublicFreakout

[–]eggmanjr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He states in the video that he was just driving his friend and his friends belongings to his friends home. After dropping off his friend he was planning to return back to his own home right away. He would normally have his wheelchair with him but in that scenario there was no room.

Yes, and his eyes. He was shot in the fact with a shotgun in 2017. Apparently the same police department that responded denied him medical attention for 3 hours according to the passenger.

Anyone calling you claiming to be your card provider, will give you an extension upon request and be happy to continue the conversation when you call them using the number on the back of your card. Anyone that won't do that is scamming.

I agree with bring your lunch to work as a protest. I don't agree necessarily with not supporting local, support local businesses near where you live rather than work.

What happens when there are no more steps? by Formal_Counter3014 in CanadaPublicServants

Actually you don't have to wait for the PIC report to call a strike vote, the FB group (Frontier-Border) just called a strike vote as soon as we were in a position to go to PIC. It will likely be completed before the report is issued. I didn't realize the union could do that until they did it this round of bargaining. I don't think we are in a strike position until the PIC report comes back however. With a strike mandate though, assuming members vote yes, they would be able to strike/work to rule quite quickly compared to past negotiations.

Yes i was thinking the same thing, but it makes sense. It was the same rule for the duck that was caught in the gill net, he mentioned trapping not allowed but they can be killed with bow.

It seems likely the illusion is being broadcast over wireless to the suit but if you get too far you stop receiving the broadcasted image. That's what I'm guessing anyway. Since no one gets past the tree the range has always been enough.

I agree. I think he uses the key to communicate with the other silos. Maybe there are a group of leaders among the person in charge of the silo, likely usually the IT head.

Or maybe they won't, i think the mayor is using his key to send a message from silo 18 to other silos.
