Or here me out, maybe make the dudes wear blindfolds until they learn consent instead?
Baxnal @baxnal.2d Aurelia @A... 16h That's why Allah made niqab compulsory for us because men simply don't understand the concept of consent. That one beautiful girl you saw on the train — and never saw again.

CBC is going to court to avoid revealing the subscription numbers for it’s streaming service Gem to the public, after being ordered to do so by the information commissioner.

CBC is arguing this would damage their competitive position, but the commissioner disagrees.

‘Tales of The Underworld’ is another great example of how Filoni Star Wars is at its best when he’s not doing everything.

Having just watched the first couple of Ventress episodes, he created the story, but the actual scripts were written and directed by someone else.

1/2

These are the survivors.

My guess: Interim leader Don Davies, permanent leader Alexandre Boulerice

So, if we go by Rebels, then in the third batch of #Andor episodes (May 6th - 7-9) taking place in 2 BBY, we’ll see Mon Mothma condemn the Emperor as responsible for the Gorman massacre, leading to her fleeing the senate with the help of Bail and joining the rebellion

According to Bespin Bulletin, these are the Andor season 2 runtimes.

So, the combined runtimes for the 3-episode “Andor movie” we’re getting each week would be:

‪1. 2 hours 13 minutes (133 minutes)‬
‪2. 2 hours 45 minutes (147 minutes)‬
‪3. 2 hours, 14 minutes (134 minutes)‬
‪4. 2 hours, 1 minute

I didn’t really take it that seriously at the time, but to date Marvel has been doing pretty much everything you would’ve expected it to do if this was true and they’re actually contractually unable to recast any of the main x-men

Did you know Canadian voice actress Lenore Zann, who plays Rogue in ‘X-Men ‘97’ as well as the original series also had a career as a politician, first serving as an NDP member of the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 2009-2019, & then as a liberal MP in the federal House of Commons

I get that it’s a co-production, but I feel weird about The Apprentice being nominated for the #CanadianScreenAwards.

Like it’s a great movie, but I can’t say I’ll be thrilled to see American actors sweep up best lead or supporting performer, even if they kinda deserve it

Ngl, i LOVE how Jay Baruchel has just chosen to basically be a exclusively a Canadian actor at this point. Gotta love a real Canuck patriot.

(Also, apparently this movie is directed by Caitlin Cronenberg!)

I would love if Paradise Lost is framed through Aisla MacPherson (Stephanie Beatriz) learning about the history of Themyscira, maybe even from Wonder Woman if they’re ready to cast her yet.
