‘Natural predators’ like an imported artifically bred african animal? I mean if you’re going to make an argument stick with the factory farm angle, because that’s legit. Or create an argument about how urbanification has decimated the natural predator population while encouraging the small animal population and cats…

hummus with paprika and breadcrumb topping?

The worst thing I saw was a local radio station posted a congrats on their FB page, and a number of folk started spewing the typical hatred you’d expect from a Fox News page. And not just old people, lots of men and women who were in their 30’s, a lot who had babies/kids in their profile pics.

There’s a pizza chain in Canada (or Ontario anyway) called Gabriel’s that serves both mediocre pizza and also breakfast in the mornings, maybe that’s the restaurant?

Colouring books for adults are popular? Shit, I should publish my Burlesque Dinosaur colouring book I made for our wedding.

Does general anime fandom count? I used to be huge in anime. Stereotypically insanely into anime.

Then I started working anime conventions. Got cured of that right quick.

PEI is the best. Also so many Japanese tourists! There were like five Japanese weddings at Green Gables when we went there one summer, apparently AoGG is insanely popular over there!

The first five were amazing, the last 2 were depressing. I grew up very religious as well and so all the christian metaphors really added a lot of depth to them. But damn, the whole ‘hatred and folly’ and everyone dies and goes to heaven at the end was maybe a little too deep for an 8 year old, it traumatized me for…

Remember that ‘one-shot’ special edition book where they go back in time and can become dinosaurs and discover broccoli is actually an alien import? And then they hand-wave the inability to become raptors when they return to the present by saying ‘extinct animal imprints vanish when the animal does’ or something weird…

Yep, HP and Redwall are pretty much the only books from my youth to consistently entertain me. Narnia used to be my favourite but man is that last book a bummer.

This is actually why my wife and I decided against reciprocal IVF. Our main stupid concern is be ‘what if we pick the wrong embryo to gestate’ even though it’s technically as random as natural conception, but then also ‘what do we do with the extras’. We would in no way be able to afford 6+ proceedures much less the…

400/yr for all six embryos? Damn, that is inexpensive. I’m paying 300/yr per 1 vial of sperm, since we bought ours ‘in bulk’. Right now we have about 4 vials in storage, which is 1200/yr. Oh America you inexpensive wonderland.

I’ll be the one to say it: Harry Potter.

I read this until the cover fell off in my pre-teen days. I need to find it again for when I have kids. It was so good.

There was a recent ‘scandal’ in one of my country’s dentistry’s schools where a private Facbook group of a bunch of male students joked and discussed basically sedating and raping their classmates/patients. They got punished, but there was still enough people supporting them that I’m now more terrified of the dentist…

Well looks I’m calling up my shope and asking them to pull it from my sub and apologising profusely for asking them to order it :(

In addition to what others have said - it’s a really rich area and so having the means to close on two insanely priced condos at the same time and being the pretentious selfish garbage bags they were is a combination of ‘your life is easy and you’re cunts who don’t appreciate it’ sort of ire - it’s the fact that they…

Anyone else weirded out that they didn’t really age up the girl? I know it’s a minor thing because she’s like 118 and not 18 so technically she shouldn’t phsycially change that much, but visually it’s... weird?

Once the exctiment from how great the great parts are dies down, there’s a lot of flaws in the movie. A lot of questionable director choices, pointless character choices, the CG on the raptors is really mediocre, nothing about the I. Rex really made sense other than being insane. It’s a dumb fun movie, but being fun…

Hahaha, that was a great part my wife, who has been diligently clicker training our dog and who’s best friend is a dog trainer, just lost her mind there. ‘He’s not doing any reinforcement or rewarding good behavior, he’s just making a lot noise! No wonder they keep trying to eat him! He’s not a trainer, he’s a loud…
