[edit]

question about the new anime Suicide_Squad_Isekai

[edit]

I live in Canada and I don't have Hulu or Max. Is there a way I can watch Suicide_Squad_Isekai when it premieres? Will it be on Crunchyroll, Disneyplus, Crave or some other streaming service in Canada? Thank you! 2001:569:7D9E:700:15F6:5ACD:1BC8:EB22 (talk) 00:41, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

filming location in Baltimore

[edit]

Here is a screenshot and I would like to know where this street and church can be found in Baltimore. https://s20.directupload.net/images/240623/y9e7ogpl.png Thank you! Chris06 (talk) 16:16, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You could try sending it to the YouTuber, GeoWizard. He seems to be an expert at this kind of thing. Pablothepenguin (talk) 18:08, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
He certainly is an expert, but he's not going to do it just for some random person on the internet. Your best bet is to join a Facebook group about Baltimore and post your query there. The unusual looking building on the right looks like a church tower. I tried reverse image searching for the tower but it didn't come up. A google image search for churches in Baltimore didn't bring anything up either. --Viennese Waltz 09:17, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The commons category Churches in Baltimore is vast. I haven't found anything, but I haven't explored every nook and cranny of the category either. --Wrongfilter (talk) 10:40, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your answers! I had already searched the category and found nothing. The picture is from the film Step Up 2 and in both films all the locations are in Baltimore. Therefore I suspect that this street can also be found there. --Chris06 (talk) 15:51, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
New Lebanon Baptist Church on Milton Ave. at Jefferson St. See [1]. Looking west down Jefferson Street with high zoom from a distant airborne perspective. Some of the other landmarks you can see are at Johns Hopkins University, more than half a mile away. --Amble (talk) 18:34, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much, Amble! The cityscape in the background has changed since then. This church is not on commons I think. --Chris06 (talk) 06:37, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lion

[edit]

why is the lion the king of the jungle? Pheffytom (talk) 20:26, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See archetype, but note that care has to be taken in order to distinguish between Plato's view vs Jung's interpretation. This will not be giving a direct explanation but illustrate Jung's description of the phenomenon. The king analogy is built by a collective schema. That of schema most often does not need or better, deserve an explanation as any individual will have and own his particular share of the explanation. That's according to his specticific position in the collective. --Askedonty (talk) 21:04, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
See also Cultural depictions of lions for the characterization as "king of beasts". The lion hunts mainly on open woodlands and is not found in dense woodlands such as are called "jungles", so "king of the jungle" is a bit of a misnomer. (In Indian English, though, the term "jungle" may refer to any uncultivated tract of forest or scrub habitat.) Other animals have also been called "king of the jungle", such as the tiger,[2][3] the peafowl,[4] the Asian elephant[5] and the gorilla.[6]  --Lambiam 08:32, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note also the Lion of Judah, associated with the tribe and dynasty of King David, and subsequently influential in Christian cultures. -- Verbarson  talkedits 18:26, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
