• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I wrote a script for a movie and sent it off to a studio or whatever. What prevents the person who recieved it from claiming it as their own?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  My strategy would be to share it with multiple people so I have witnesses to attest that I wrote it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Are These Things Called Again?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Illumination Studios trademarked the word banana 🍌

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The beef industry currently⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Eat less beef and more tofu

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gotta catch 'em all...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I recently heard that a new law was made somewhere prohibiting stores from destroying unsold clothes. I’m upset that they were doing that in the first place

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bet you read that wrong⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been deliberately misspelling Untied States since Trump has been back in power. It often goes unnoticed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With all the bad news hitting the states all of a sudden, is there anywhere I can go online for good news? Instead of mourning all this stuff?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s a YouTuber named Sam Bently posting videos a couple of times a month with good news. Mostly environmental stuff

  Actually, we see him a little depressed before Nala showed up. The scene where they’re talking about what the stars are

  I’m going to be pedantic here. First, Simba didn’t know Scar was trying to kill him. Second, he didn’t tell Timon and Pumbaa that his father died. Timon and Pumbaa were a little dickish telling him not to worry without first finding out what his problem was, but they did not have full context

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I ❤️ agreeing with the people with authority over me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I WILL NOT COMPLY! I BELIEVE THAT GREEN ONIONS ARE NOT ONIONS AND YOU CANNOT STOP ME!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Those stupid exams that say "defend your answer"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Your honour, my answer did nothing wrong

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Heh Heh Suckers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Trump is trying to make it easier for history students by deleting all mention of racism and other forms of discrimination

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Play games with your neighbor to sink even lower! Canada rules!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We could go to war and there would still be people in both countries completely fucking oblivious

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Play games with your neighbor to sink even lower! Canada rules!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  An old friend of mine from university was recently in New York with her kids and posted pics of Central Park on Facebook. And I wondered how fucking oblivious is she

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmmmm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been established by the newest movie that there were other tribes of minions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hmmmm⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But it’s now been established that there were other tribes of minions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Was Pedro Pascal objectively "in everything"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Samuel L Jackson famously says motherfucker in a lot of movies

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Was Pedro Pascal objectively "in everything"?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Easy way to find out: check his filmography on wikipedia and compare it to the filmographies of other actors

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MORE PICTURES OF SPIDER-WOMAN!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember something like that happening in one of the animated series too, a villain was asking who took the photos and Jameson was saying he didn’t know where the guy lived and he only contacted him by email

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MORE PICTURES OF SPIDER-WOMAN!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I took the implication to be that Spider-woman is already out as trans at the same time as Petra Parker and Jameson is still too dense to make the connection

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hahahaha imagine⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine loving in a country run by criminals

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are there people who don't know Alaska and Hawaii are states?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not American. Sorry, I thought it was common for everyone to have seen a map of the Untied States? Is it just in Canada that non-anericans are likely to know a little basic American geography?

  I can’t name any provinces in other countries outside Canada but I’ve seen world maps and know the basic shape of Brazil. I would have thought by looking at a map, people, American or not, would notice Alaska and Hawaii being specifically singled out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a website that can tell you the new names to I guess "classify" people? Like the R word, or the N word or skin color or nationaility? For ex. Is African American still acceptable and so forth⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As an autistic person, no, many of us prefer to be called autistic people rather than people with autism. Person with autism makes it sound like an accessory that can be removed from the person. Many autistic people consider autism an intrinsic part of who we are.

  You don’t call gay people “people with homosexuality” or black people “people with blackness”

• How are there people who don't know Alaska and Hawaii are states?

  My grandmother used to have a cat named Whiskey. She jokes that when she’d call for her cat, all the neighbourhood bums came

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subtitles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is putting them at a disadvantage. I can hear characters speaking french and pick up at least some of what they’re saying. A deaf person who knows some French should have the same opportunity as me to see the French words and interpret some of what is being said

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subtitles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Like I said, people who happen to know the language can understand it and so should have the same chance to understand with subtitles. If the director’s intention was nobody understand it, they shouldn’t have them speak in a language people may be able to understand

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subtitles⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I noticed this in Meet The Robinson’s. A guy says “Madames and monsuiers” and the subtitle says “speaking french” as if the average English speaker doesn’t know what those words mean

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subtitles⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is unfair to bilingual deaf people.

  For example, there’s an episode of Bluey with a lot of French. I’m really bad at French but I do know a little of it. I am able to understand some of the dialogue.

  Why should a deaf person not have the same right as me to interpret dialogue in a language they happen to understand or understand bits of?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are expressions like "women artists" or "women writers" used?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not all women are biologically female

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if you maxxed out your credit cards and line of credit then moved to some village in the phillipines?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know but I think you’d enjoy the finale of 3rd Rock From The Sun. The aliens find out they’re leaving earth forever. They’re sad but make the most of it by maxing out their credit cards and having a party.

  Although, the writers weren’t sure if they were coming back for another season or not. Presumably, they would have had to deal with consequences next season if they returned
