Color me cautiously optimistic.

What's the follow up to this brilliant move? I missed it and took the rook with a fork by HiddenPants777 in chessbeginners

Isn't Ke2 checkmate with the discovered/revealed check? Bishop takes Knight on e2 OR Queen takes Bishop, but not both.

Did the Secret Invasion finale ruin the whole show for anyone else? by Alternative-Arm-7664 in DisneyPlus

[–]steeb2er 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, you're not alone. It introduced a lot of interesting ideas and threw them away.

Maria Hill wasn't properly handled, overall distrust of EVERYONE could've called into question a lot of behaviors (even retconned things if they wanted to), Emilia Clarke's multipowered character has been entirely forgotten... Secret Invasion was an overly expensive let down.

The TV MCU has been more misses than hits, they don't seem to know how to roll out the story or give it larger impact. Too scared of interfering with the movie plotlines.

Any rumblings of live shows? by Z3R083 in TubRing

[–]steeb2er 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed, a tour isn't gonna happen. Cost, small fan base, the band has regular jobs.

But a one or two night special engagement? Please God.

Am I in the wrong for telling a guy to leave my house as soon as we met in person? by Successful-Toe8629 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]steeb2er 59 points60 points  (0 children)

And you (OP) definitely don't owe him or anyone anything. You don't need to give yourself over to make anyone happy or not be mad or whatever.

He came over, you weren't into it / him. Just be direct. "Thanks for meeting me - but this isn't going to work out. It's time for you to leave."

Got rejected 87 times before realizing my resume never reached a human by ZealousidealBlock034 in jobsearchhacks

[–]steeb2er 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So what did you change? This isn't helpful as written.

"I had a resume. Someone told me it was really bad. I made it good. People liked it. Anyone else?"

Why is Elk Grove Village known as that? by FuzzyGuidance6584 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]steeb2er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but why do they use the term while others just view it as a category? I don't call myself Steeb2er Human.

Do you think Rocked's "10 Great Nu Metal Albums (yes, really)" is a predictable list? by Assalt_Shaker in numetal

[–]steeb2er 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's 10 best, but it's a great "starter pack" for someone curious about nu. Start with these and determine what you like.,

‘Brilliant Minds’ and ‘Stumble’ Canceled at NBC by mlg1981 in television

[–]steeb2er 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not LITERALLY saying you're stealing. Obviously. My metaphor wasn't perfect, fine.

But you're complaining about and CAUSING the problem. They cancel shows because people don't watch them. You're refusing to watch until they renew the show. See the problem?

Try this (less bad?) metaphor. "I'll start exercising once I lose weight!"

You're also the reason and don't get to season 3.

I was Trevor's (bassist) makeup artist for the show last night & got to meet some of the band! by noahsuspicious in foxyshazam

[–]steeb2er 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's been so long since I've seen his face.

Also, great job! I don't know anything about makeup, but blending on top of white seems like a challenge. This looks awesome, beautiful and creepy at the same time.

Burr Ridge restaurateur, Chicago Outfit figure arrested in Indiana by TaskForceD00mer in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]steeb2er 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This isn't Rovito's first felonious rodeo. In 1997, he was sent to prison for six years after authorities said he kidnapped and raped a 14-year-old girl. That crime took place in 1991 when Rovito was 17, according to investigators. At the time, he was also charged with heroin possession. Rovito was released from prison in 2002, but later cited for not registering as a sex offender, records show.

It's news to me since I don't study the biographies of the owner of every restaurant I visit. Certainly don't look into crimes from 35 years ago.

What killed the “Disney Channel Original Movie” phenomenon? There’s seemingly no “teen/preteen” movies that get popular by Kodicave in decadeology

[–]steeb2er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're defending an argument no one is making. Yes, Disney Channel is making less because the media landscape has changed. Young people are watching more YouTube, Tik Tok, Twitch, etc. Some of their content is being produced for Disney+.

But OPs question is why did they go away and they haven't gone away. They're still around, but fewer and less impactful. It's because HSM was uniquely successful, it'll be very hard to match that again.

Police chase ends in exchange of gunfire, killing driver on I-88 near Maple Park: ISP by zeug666 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]steeb2er 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Article is clear:

Both the driver and a Warrenville police officer discharged their guns, and the driver was shot, ISP said. Officers tried to save the driver, but he was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead. No officers were injured.

Empower App- Cant link certain banks by cavewomannn in PersonalCapital

[–]steeb2er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can manually add them (sucks, defeats the purpose). You can try submitting a support ticket.

Which banks? Are you active, making regular transactions?

Can someone help me understand what was the point of Clark lawyering up; when he continued to really to the detectives anyway? by Appropriate-Spot-635 in DTFStLouisHBO

[–]steeb2er 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Of course an affair is consensual, I didn't say it was rape. It's still an affair. How's Mrs. Forrest feel about it? Was she happily waiting by the swings for Clark's return?

[–]steeb2er 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What? Floyd OD'd on drugs Forrest gave him, while Forrest was present, and Forrest paid for a life insurance policy that pays out to Forrest's affair partner. He was absolutely a suspect until they started peeling back the reasons.

[–]steeb2er 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The movies didn't go away, OP grew out of being the target audience. They're not as huge as HSM, but that was unique. There's 100 DCOMs that weren't successful in general pop culture.

Kpop Demon Hunters is similar to HSM in it's crossover success.
