Last post by viper37 - November 28, 2025, 02:24:33 PMMy cousin insisted I watched Berserk. I tried, I really tried.
This one is always ranting against wokes destroying Star Wars and Hollywood, and he sees non binaries. He sees non binaries everywhere. Ok, he's in downtown Montreal, so maybe he as a point about the last part. Although he gets out of his place only to work in a manufacturing plant, then rush back home to play games, so I don't really know where he sees so many non binary people. Go figure. Montreal is such a weird place.
So, Berserk.
The story about a butch lesbian trying to fit in a men's world, falling for a gay dude who spends his days training hard, who has a crush on an effeminate gay dude who was once the lover or minion to a pedophile lord. This is more the story of a love triangle, where demons are inserted for good measure than anything else. The gay subplot is kinda hard to miss.
Anyway. Lots of violence, lots of gore, but poor story overall. There's really nothing except some gay inuendo, some sex/nudity and lots of violence. Military strategy is totally absent, they don't even pretend to try anything. Armies clash together even worst than Braveheart and that's supposed to be good.

I really like it. A lot of hate was generated because of the initial game design. But all that was changed. Unfortunately, too late to keep the player base.

Last post by crazy canuck - November 28, 2025, 02:12:37 PMQuote from: Jacob on November 28, 2025, 01:38:36 PMFor the record, I tend to believe the pipeline MOU is good politics and won't necessarily mean a pipeline being built, but my impression is that a good number of British Columbians - and perhaps more importantly a number of Coastal First Nations - are understanding the MOU as an attempt to force a pipeline to be built without their consent; and they're reacting rather strongly to that.
The law does not require consent, it requires meaningful consultation. See my post above explaining why that process normally encourages agreement. Although, I grant you the term consent is used a lot by the BC Premier and First Nations so I don't blame you for thinking that is so.
A point that has been made that has a lot of merit is that the Feds cannot download the Crown's consultation duties to the Province of Alberta, but I don't understand the MOU as suggesting that. Rather, AB has to satisfy initial criteria before the Feds start stepping into the process.
I also hear a lot of talk that the MOU is imposing something. It is not, and to the extent sophisticated people who know better are saying these sorts of things, consider the political reasons they might be doing so.
As an aside, out of curiosity, what record?

Last post by Tamas - November 28, 2025, 02:02:18 PMThe rats are eating the bait and I THINK they have started to slow down, hopefully as a sign of their impending demise. Once we get silence for a few days I will look to deal with the suspected way in to the house.

Last post by HVC - November 28, 2025, 01:50:18 PMI read that windows were covered in styrofoam and that what caused the fast spread. Not sure why you'd cover the windows in styrofoam? Sound deadening? Or I guess if you were spraying the facade with something. Another contributing factor, not in the fire but the death toll, is that the fire alarms were faulty and weren't sounding an alarm.
