In my opinion, winter is the best season. I mean, c'mon. It looks pretty, you can wear like 50 blankets, and drink hot chocolate! What's not to like? (besides freezing)
That right there is the reason it’s my least favorite season. I experienced snow way too much being from the snowy north and despite being born in winter, I just hate it.In my opinion, winter is the best season. I mean, c'mon.

I completely understand. My only strategy for survival is by staying inside from the 50 feet of snow. Oh well. At least houses exist! ;-; Despite all that, somehow, it's my fav season!

Down here, it's like that, but with summer. We basically have 3 versions of summer, each one more intense than the other, and then we have "winter", which is basically lots of light rain for an extended period and temperatures ranging from 15C to 26C.My problem with winter is that here in Canada we get it for like, 6 months. If it was from December - Feb, I'd be more tolerant of it. We got some snow today (a thin strip on roof and cars) but I heard someone scraping their windshield. Yuck.
That sounds pretty gross too lol. Can we trade though?Down here, it's like that, but with summer.

December is coming and with that, summer. Like, the worst version of it. January tends to be the worst month of the year for me, as it's the hottest month.
Haha! I'm sure I'd get sick of the heat eventually. Why can't weather be somewhere in the middle, you know?Well, I would accept your offer in a heartbeat lol

I'm all for saving the environment and have done lots of help but paper straws are awful. I'm a slow drinker but even I find they get mushy so fast and begin to fall apart into my drink. Disgusting.It's fun how countries are so fast forbidding plastic items when a lot of those items doesn't have good options, like untreated wooden toothbrushes basically make your gum bleed, and a lot of people can't handle those bad paper straws even though it has gotten better neither can they hold onto metallic ones.
Yes I'm aware it's bad for environment but unless you have proper options don't be rushing phasing it out. Also some thin paper around a wrap is a bad idea.
Yeah, I've had other than plastic-straws but they get soggy fast and makes stuff taste... paper yes.I'm all for saving the environment and have done lots of help but paper straws are awful. I'm a slow drinker but even I find they get mushy so fast and begin to fall apart into my drink. Disgusting.
For sure. What about something similar to juice boxes? Those are recycled (at least where I am) and have a plastic 'lining' to help the paper not fall apart.Yeah, I've had other than plastic-straws but they get soggy fast and makes stuff taste... paper yes.
Imo it's better focusing on recycled plastic or develop yet another material. Sorry I'd rather throw my stuff in a bin than have a yuck drink I need.

Have you ever seen the film Escape from Tomorrowland? It's kinda disturbing, but also pretty amusing. It's a horror that was filmed without permission in Disneyland, making it all dark and creepy and stuff. Your comment reminded me of it. I like how it's a massive eff you to Disney hahaUnpopular opinion: I'm not a fan of Disney at all.
Since a few years ago, perhaps even longer, I've began to kinda enter this stage of my life where I started to see the shady messages of older Disney films or just simply grew out of them altogether. The Little Mermaid is a movie that teaches young girls to sell their souls to a stranger for the sake of a man, and Pocahontas glorifies an ugly American history.
But it's not until recently that I got more... disturbed by Walt Disney's corporate decisions, the most obvious one being the monopoly that forced thousands of people out of work when 20th Fox Studio was bought out. Yay, we have Wolverine in the MCU now... who cares if it means the joblessness of many people?
But that's not even the best part yet. The video I've posted above shows just how much uglier the reality really is with Disney's corporate evil: suing a grieving father for wanting to place a Spider-Man on his late son's tombstone. Yeah... I don't think I need to describe what this means to me as a Spider-Man fan. Anyone who has read "The Kid Who Collects Spider-Man" knows how little Disney executives understands Spider-Man when they made this god-awful decision. And even putting aside the trivial comic book lore, it's a father wanting to just do something nice for his dead son... so yeah, pretty disgusting, Disney. I have choice words for you. Real colorful words.
And that's just the most glaring fault Disney has ever displayed. There are tons of other things I don't like about them either, but most of my dissatisfaction comes from their romanticization of life values, such that any franchise they touch - Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars - all get turned into these "family-friendly, conservative wholesome movies for the whole family." Pixar movies might seem like the exception to this rule, but their movies seem to become worse in quality ever since the Disney buyout in 2006... And guess which Pixar film came out in 2006? That's right - Cars.
Now, I enjoy my fair share of Marvel stuff every now and then, but I don't consider myself an MCU fan. Like most Disney films, MCU films have these bland, out of touch, generic plots about good fighting evil and triumphing or some overdone, forgettable story like that. Only recently did Kevin Feige manage to wrestle more creative rights and get more experimental writing into their series, but even still, it's still plagued by the Disney brand of "keeping it safe for the kids." You know, don't want to cause anyone to think that you could slap Spidey on tombstones, amirite?
Sigh. Disney sucks.
I haven't seen it, but I'm surprised Disney "chose to ignore it" and not sue them. But this only makes their suppression of that grieving father's request much more bizarre. A Roman Polanski/David Lynch-esque horror film starring Disneyland is fine, but Spidey, a character known in the comics for grieving for the innocent multiple times (including a kid with cancer), is supposedly too family-friendly to be placed on a tombstone?!Have you ever seen the film Escape from Tomorrowland? It's kinda disturbing, but also pretty amusing. It's a horror that was filmed without permission in Disneyland, making it all dark and creepy and stuff. Your comment reminded me of it.
