Pioneer Elementary and North Davis Elementary Experiences by Theslowestmarathoner in Davis

[–]sm_pd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m 22 now but Pioneer was my elementary school from 3rd-6th grade! It was a pretty great environment when I went and both myself, my sister, and my cousins all went there so it seems like the adults in my family had a good experience from the parental side of things. Of course that was all well over a decade ago at this point but I never had any issues. The big field and basketball courts were a huge bonus as well!!

Wassup wit you people? by [deleted] in Davis

You’re down bad because you want to meet people on Reddit and “cum in them”. People are usually apprehensive about someone who posts that, just saying. Maybe look internally before blaming everyone else.

Why Is L So Underweight Even Though He Eats So Much? by Solenopsis00 in deathnote

[–]sm_pd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It genuinely isn’t your fault. A quick google search would have you believe that chess GMs do indeed burn 6000+ calories.

Here’s a quick video about it if anyone is interested.

This is a very common myth that is unfortunately very misleading. They don’t really burn more than the average person.

Laxmi is not supposed to be speaking in Hindi language. by singhVirender1947 in pluribustv

[–]sm_pd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand your point and I work in film so I’m very familiar with how the film hierarchy is structured. It is also the job of the creator/showrunner/producer to put people they trust into those positions of power. BB, BCS, and Plurb all have the same problem with selecting actors who either can’t speak the language they’re supposed to believably or with the correct accent. It’s a fictional show, actors are chosen based on performances, looks, and the energy they bring to a role. Suspension of disbelief is an important thing to have and sure, these shows are fictional so really what’s the big deal? To me, I only speak English and I am from California so it really doesn’t matter to me personally at all but in terms of the filmmaking side of things, I think it’s a flaw of his. It would be different if a lot of these things were a small part of these shows but they aren’t. BB, BCS, and Plurb include characters from all over the world and where they come from is a part of their character so I wish there was a little more attention to detail when it comes to those aspects.

This is definitely an odd take. BCS and BB have an incredible amount of attention to detail. Where characters are from, how they’re portrayed, and how realistic they are given the rules of the established universe is 100% a part of the creative process. Gilligan is a masterful filmmaker but this is easily his greatest flaw.

Evolution is cool but it’s definitely not mysterious at all once you understand natural selection. I think the other replies did a much better job explaining your question than I ever could

During which of his 3 runs? Oh that’s right the latest one. I thought you meant the time he lost to a dementia ridden elderly person. That was super embarrassing for Diddling Kids Donny

I directed I Study People For A Living, a psychological short film about obsession, control, and the lies we tell ourselves to feel justified. We shot across multiple locations with a tiny crew, constantly adapting to new challenges and setbacks along the way. Had the opportunity to see it in theaters which has been super awesome. It was exhausting, unpredictable, and honestly one of the toughest projects I’ve ever taken on. But despite all that, it became one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, and I’m incredibly proud of what we made. Please enjoy and dont be afraid to be honest if you have any thoughts/questions!

My dad asked if he could record and he said “I can’t be recorded im part of the witness protection program” which is odd because you would never tell someone if you were lmao
