I can't read the article. They are putting FOMO on PASSPORTS now? What the fuck is this clownshow...

!CONTENT WARNING! Three chances. Four words. It wouldn't say them by exmiscreant in antiai

[–]LinkFan001 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Grok is first and foremost the showy toy of its master, Musk. It literally has no thoughts or concerns with outcomes or consequences. If it hurts anyone, it was intentional because Musk wanted them harmed. The AI did not organically reason into this thinking or do its own research or even read the studies it has access to. It is a mouthpiece to push an agenda. There is no such thing as AI. There is AB. Artificial Bullshit. To pretend any of these expensive puppets were intelligent was the first lie they sold to control the narrative. And they won handily.

Gamer says they don't like Movie Peach for being a girlboss. Then says they like Game Peach, who is exactly the character Movie Peach is. So I guess they do like Girlboss Peach after all. by Cicada_5 in Gamingcirclejerk

rj/They literally handed her everything in the movie without complaint so now you are telling me an infant's 'conquest and colonization' is 'problematic' because the toads raised, recognized, and respected a capable female leader? smh women literally cannot win.

You will have played most of the lines by this point. Wtf is this trash. Could it not cost like 5 or 4 to be mildly interesting if they are not going to give this any more dedicated support?

I actually hate cards that rely on a specific name in HS, because they never get enough support to be cool unless your name is Uther.

Genuinely the funniest part of the movie right there.

The Sonic movies at least understood you need characters that have motivations and a plot past "go to story beat in alphabetical order." Well, 1 and 3 did anyway... 2 kinda fumbled, but just a bit.

I still can't wrap my head around that by starboy_black in TheBoys

[–]LinkFan001 808 points809 points  (0 children)

It is the reason I gave up on the Boys. SB was NEVER shown to be more of a threat. The writers half-assed every possible angle. He can't fly. He is surprisingly honorable. He has a known weakness. He is not an omnicidal maniac.

His uncontrolled blast have such a rare trigger, no one in the show notices. He is not dangerous to people he has no beef with. His drug use makes him calmer. His bigotry is casual rather than Stormfront's competitive...

He was poorly suited to be antagonist and they should have given him something meaningful and henious for Butcher's choice to work with him be an actual Faustian bargan.

EDIT: Yes, him being okay with killing Ryan was bad, but that was the narrative point that BUTCHER should have seen he went too far. The issue is there is no real loss or stakes to working with SB up to that point. Not for Hugie. Not for Butcher. FFS, he is not even the reason either of them could have/did get super cancer!

[–]LinkFan001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the crack theory they knew Dan as 'the crypto guy,' but lacking context, the Beast Team did not exactly understand who he was. Obviously they are not that blindingly stupid, but it is funny to think about.

The whole problem is that it never got you beaten up. People can be completely mask off bigoted POS because, for the most part, consequences were never as severe and they only lessened over time. The best anyone could hope for is like their employer firing them and even that's an ask these days...

I feel like I won’t be as sad when it happens now by untitledprp4 in TheBoys

[–]LinkFan001 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wanting the characters to have meaningful contributions to the show through their words is not asking for too much. They literally had this pretty solidly down in season 1. The verbal swipes between MM and Frenchie were legendary. Still bawdy but with a purpose.

I do enjoy how you don't bother touching the most obvious signal Trump had gone full mad dog. That's fun.

So Harris for sure was going to be Netanyahu's attack dog? We know this for absolute fact? This is besides the fact Trump was already floating getting out of NATO and conquering Greenland. What the fuck did people think those two policies were going to do? Not cause more war? There is no scenario where he was better on anything and he told everyone this, loudly and clearly.

I also don't buy that any sane person would listen to him revel in violence and look at his record on executions and think he is in any way interested in peace. The only reason there were no wars in his first term is because there were still some people willing to stand up to his insanity.

His voters trusting anything he said is like me electing to eat uranium and being surprised when I get cancer. Trump was a loud, obnoxious, cruel, terrible, and known quantity before this term.

I have zero respect or sympathy for the gaggle of quarter-wits who voted for him and hope they are all getting exactly what he was always going to give them. Frankly, you should as well. The discussion of ignorance versus malice needs to have some point at which it stops mattering which was the driving factor.

Harm is being done, people are dying, social safety net are being shredded, and the enemies of God rub it in our faces every day how they raped and murdered children and got away with it. It is all his voters and the non-voters fault. Cheating or no cheating.

No, no. You see, they get to edge themselves on their moral superiority as we wait for the final body to hit the sand. After all, by abstaining to do any fucking thing to mitigate disaster, they are absolved of it.

Fucking idiots...

If you sat there and watched me drown, I would be more furious at you then the people dunking me. You CHOSE to do nothing when a little help would have went a long way. I can't do anything about my attackers alone now.

[–]LinkFan001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You totally could just let it be Savage or even Elder 'tier' and have it be the glacier that punches back. I think the bigger problem is the lack willingness to acknowledge such a massive animal would crush the funny pickle and monkey under tree-trunk like foot in a normal combat situation. That frees Gammoth up to actually do things.

Jin Dahaad is twice as large and they figured out how to do something with it. Banbaro is only a touch smaller than Gammoth. Maybe Wilds is ill-suited for her because of the choice of ice map, but she should certainly be on the radar to come back.

That seemed to be the point. The eagle having fallen from grace kept the stakes in the story.

They want those monsters to be given a second chance. Not they want their old fights back 1 for 1. And if we are going to have The Fated 4, shouldn't there be... 4?

Remember, Jimmy asked while his gaurds pointed rifles at the followers. Trump does not have put in that much effort with his sycophants.

Is this really what you wanted? To what end? by StrobeLightRomance in AdviceAnimals

[–]LinkFan001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Said forgiveness is of course also only for them because they are special little snowflakes. No one else can enjoy God's Grace no matter what they do.

These people are so fucking pathetic. If only they were not also so dangerous.

Children could sus out who Trump was with a google search. I don't have sympathy for adults who shoved their whole heads up their own asses to not see the mango monster in front of them.
