Proto_Spark 07/20/20 1:35:23 AM #340 | LostForest posted... Can you blame him? She doesn't have a personality lol. I was a little disappointed tbh, I remember Ran/Ann being my favourite character from the last games. I was gonna go straight for her but all the other events are so much more enjoyable. Or I'll go gay for Cliff. He's pretty dope too. |
Topic | Did you like terminator dark fate more or the rise of skywalker? |
Proto_Spark 07/19/20 12:57:33 PM #24 | EffectAndCause posted... Dark Fate was actually fucking great and the best since 2. This. Rise of Skywalker was OK if you aren't a Star Wars fan. Like it wasn't good, but if you watch it just because its a action-y romp in space, its fine, I guess. The problem is that that isn't how 90% (at least) of people who want the new Star Wars movie think of it. Especially since it was not only the culmination to the sequel trilogy, but advertised as the ending of the whole damn saga. |
Topic | Ben Shapiro yearns for epistemic humility on the handling of Covid-19 in the US. |
Proto_Spark 07/18/20 2:18:02 PM #40 | ZMythos posted... No Ben, you get to live with the fact that you and your ilk are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths and tens of billions of dollars wasted. There are no "facts and logic" that paint the alt-right in a positive light here. This is because nothing Ben ever does is "Facts and Logic" It's always his feelings over the facts and him pretending they're facts. He's a snake oil salesman and I don't really understand why we pretend he's something more than that. |

Proto_Spark 07/18/20 11:44:41 AM #9 | Spending 550 bucks on pizza would be okay I guess if you were at least getting enough for that much, but jeez, 550 bucks for FOUR pizzas?no pizza is worth 140 bucks. |
Topic | Americans and Americans ONLY in this poll: do you consider Canada foreign? |
Proto_Spark 07/17/20 9:12:58 PM #2 | Canada is basically just the USA but all the terrible things are toned down a bit, so it doesn't seem as bad. We're basically the little brother who everyone looks at better because the older sibling keeps getting in trouble. We get off scott free so long as its not quite as bad. |

Topic | GLAAD: there is huge progress in LGBT representation in film |
Proto_Spark 07/17/20 3:57:56 PM #10 | nemu posted... Is there even a particular endpoint to this? I really dislike the idea of quotas when it comes to this stuff. Fostering an environment in which they feel welcomed to act and people can feel free to pitch stories involving them is more important than some particular percentage. These kind of things are a little awkward to have a specific endpoint since it's end goal is a societal change that is more accepting to LGBT people. So basically it is the first idea. An example would be whatever the big movie is having the obligatory love story be between two men (or two women) and nobody particularly caring that its two men (or women). If this movie can come out without 1/2 the country throwing a hissyfit over "the SJWs are ruining America with their gay movie characters!" |
Topic | GLAAD: there is huge progress in LGBT representation in film |
Proto_Spark 07/17/20 3:48:36 PM #6 | Not really, there's been a big push for more representation for LGBT+ in the last few years. There's still a ways to go, but its good to acknowledge that we've come quite a bit from where we started (or at least since the Hayes code) According to this video from a few years ago it wasn't as big a deal if you go really far back in film history, but then the Hayes code screwed everything up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeDhMKd83r4 |

I still see scenes where Gray and Marie are flirting with each other and Rick getting pissed at Kai for entrancing his sister with his BBC the first couple events are still included, but you cant get to a point where the rivals actually end up together. Kai and popuri will never actually end up getting married although there are some of the events still there. |

Proto_Spark 07/14/20 6:27:46 PM #122 | So to sum up for anyone who didn't catch all of it: 1) **** Joe Biden 2) **** the Left (But really Joe Biden) 3) **** the Chinese (also Joe Biden) 4) Net Zero Emissions means you can't have windows (also **** Joe Biden) 5) I oppose States Rights (Also **** Joe Biden) The bigger problem is that some will still view this as a success. Feel free to add anything you think I may have missed. |

Proto_Spark 07/14/20 5:46:48 PM #42 | I like how Trump is casually ignoring how poorly the United States is doing in comparison to the rest of the world while talking about how hard he tried to help everything. Lots of blaming liberals, I've been watching like 2 minutes and he's crapped on Biden like 4 times and Pelosi like 4 times. |

Is it online somewhere? https://nintendowire.com/news/2020/07/10/story-of-seasons-friends-of-mineral-town-gets-free-digital-comic-book-short-story/ This is the best I've been able to find elsewhere online. If I can't find a better one I might try to scan the comic eventually, but this first page gives a pretty good idea of what's going on. Apparently its also digital somewhere. |
Topic | I'm beyond excited for Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town |
Proto_Spark 07/14/20 3:45:16 PM #181 | spikethedevil posted... Kind of sad that we are excited over a manual but I always used to like reading character bios and such in them and the GTA ones being made to read and look like a tourist guide were really cool, Star Trek Bridge commanders was made to be a huge star ship operations manual. I think its just a nice perk since instruction booklets are so rare nowadays. So when one is actually included it feels like extra effort was put in. I know I only ever read them when they had some kind of gimmick like the ones you said. Also for anyone who hasn't read it yet/doesn't have the game yet, aside from the basic instructions, there's also little bios on each marriageable candidate, and a little comic strip on the last few pages about what you can do in Mineral Town that's kind of cute. |

Topic | Crooked Hillary: Wheelin' Dealin' Donnie won't leave office. |
Proto_Spark 07/14/20 1:05:21 PM #22 | For Trump to not leave the White House, he would need to not be a coward, which we know is completely false. Its much more likely that if Trump loses in November, hell leave quietly, and then complain to high heaven about how the election was rigged, before naming the new White House his Trump Towers apartment or something. |
Topic | Do you watch Breadtube? |
Proto_Spark 07/14/20 10:20:43 AM #19 | There are like 4 bread tubers that are any good, and everyone who cares already knows who most of them are. But Breadtube considers everyone who talks about anything remotely political a member of "bread tube" as well as the people who say we need to burn down the entire country because that's the only way to solve the current problems. A few people have made jokes about them being considered a bread tuber despite not really doing anything political. |

Proto_Spark 07/14/20 9:27:48 AM #160 | spikethedevil posted... Due to how open the game is compared to BTN and having infinite time no matter what nothing is missable forever iirc. Theres one event with Cliff in Fall of your first year, and if you dont do it, he leaves and never comes back. But Im pretty sure this is the only thing you can actually miss. At least that was the case in the original FomT, Im assuming its the same here. |

Proto_Spark 07/13/20 9:04:42 PM #4 | My local mall is, although a lot of the other stores are still closed with limits on how many people can be in the store at one time, and the grocery store is separated so you can only go in from the one entrance. I'm also in Canada and we're doing way better than the States so your experience may differ. |

Topic | So if Biden wins, y'all think it'll be a one term thing? |
Proto_Spark 07/13/20 12:15:41 PM #17 | tremain07 posted... He's said things like being open to one term as well as the absurdness of having a republican vice president, imagine he really went through with that and he's been silent so long on his VP pick because it's actually a republican. That would be fine in the whole "spirit of bring each side together" idea, but if he picks a republican VP someone is going to murder Biden in office so we get another republican president. |
Topic | Trans woman required to identify as male by Immigration Canada: 'it was agony' |
Proto_Spark 07/13/20 12:14:19 PM #19 | Medussa posted... I keep asking, and never get a satisfactory answer... Because way back when only one was an option. And then when both sexes got the ability to y'know, have rights and such they stayed there to prevent discrimination. This honestly just sounds like a silly technicality that should be very easy to fix. Especially since Chen says she's in Canada because she was afraid of being persecuted for her gender, so you would think China would be unwilling to give her a passport with her correct gender identity. I bet this will be blamed on like, one a**hole immigration official and they'll fix this for her no problem. |

Proto_Spark 07/13/20 12:01:27 PM #16 | monkmith posted... doesn't hold true for movies, seeing that actors dont want to play the same character forever. That doesn't mean the characters have to die. Iron Man and Cap are probably coming back to life (same actor or not) if some of the new Phase 4 Additions do badly. Hell, the MCU has already had two recastings that nobody cared about (Hulk, War Machine) Bio1590 posted... Theatres still aren't even open in Canada so I doubt it. This is likely why it hasn't released yet. Its getting released in theatres, and Disney will hold these movies as long as they need to. |

Topic | Did you take WOOD SHOP, METAL SHOP or HOME ECONOMICS in High School?? |
Proto_Spark 07/13/20 12:16:00 AM #4 | I took Woodshop in Grade 9 and Home Ec in Grade 10. My school didn't offer Metalshop. I can acknowledge that I got very little from either of them, aside from seeming slightly more competent when someone asks me if I know how to use power tools. This was more I didn't know what to take in my group of "other classes to take" so I basically tried to take everything. |

Proto_Spark 07/13/20 12:13:16 AM #13 | Any of the first 4 are good picks IMO, I think it went downhill after that (although it might have just been me not being a kid anymore) My personal favourite is Chamber of Secrets |
