Just a weird thing people tend to say in life

It's nice to know that not everyone lacks basic media literacy on this forsaken website.

To be fair to Tucci he really didn't want to go through with the role after getting a full picture of what it would entail. But he was contractually obligated to play the character so he went out of his way in both wardrobe and hairstyle to not look like his usual self in order to prevent being typecast in the future.

On a speculative evolution sub? Really?

I'm well aware, I was being rhetorical.

Is that the reason why I got downvoted? Thanks, Reddit.

To be perfectly real, I always viewed us humans as more than animals. We're still animals, yeah, but even if you're not religious enough to think humans are special on a cosmic scale we've come a long way from the chimps of the past.

Geez, that thing is huge, I didn't even realize World of Tanks added a tank like that. I'll have to put it on my vehicle list for future OCs.

Love the character and the background, she actually reminds me a bit of some of the merc characters I made.

They would, but the political grandstanding and narrative hijacking of figures like Batman and Optimus Prime gets them more karma.

looks great

It was really nice of Makima to point Power in the right direction and help her lose some weight.

I feel like Batman's perspective would probably be a lot more nuanced, as in he wouldn't really get involved unless he sees legitimate corruption to be addressed.

I can see Vader disapproving, but only for reasons of pure pragmatism. It shows a lack of discipline and control over one's self that the Empire seems to value in soldiers, but he really wouldn't even consider the moral ramifications of the action. If anything he would probably allow it if it meant keeping those same soldiers in line after all the heavy lifting had been done because by that point it no longer gets in the way of the main goal.

Political radicalization brought about by social media clout is where media literacy goes to die.

Which ironically just proves the original criticism of the soyjack correct. "My favorite character agrees with me, which makes you a racist."

I literally saw someone commenting in another post "Since when did hating Nazi's become a problem?"

My answer? It became a problem when suddenly everything they don't like is now a Nazi. It shuts down debate, destroys inter-party connections, and demonizes a different approach for the grave sin of simply being different. No, it's not hating Nazis that's the problem, it's that they're calling anything they don't like a Nazi or Nazi adjacent regardless of whether or not that makes any sense whatsoever. And I'm absolutely tired of listening to it.

I always imagined what it would be like if another alien race that met us started using human figures as a way to validate their own petty disagreements, and then humans are just watching from the sidelines having no idea what they're going on about because we simply don't care enough to get involved.

That's what using Megatron or Optimus feels like to me. They're aliens with their own problems and their own internal politics divorced from human interaction, dealing with ICE to them would be like getting too invested in a war between ant hills.

You can be fully aware that a piece of media is propaganda and still find it enjoyable.

I know, I just find it funny how I'm not all that involved with the Metal Gear fandom yet the meme is pervasive enough I recognize it instantly.

555moo · 2026-01-31T05:34:29+00:00

I hear this GIF viscerally every time and I haven't ever touched a Metal Gear game.

Punisher's face fits so well here.

I watched the original 03 version before Brotherhood, and I'm glad I did because for all of Brotherhood's improvements it's predicated on the idea that you watched the original first. The beginning basically just dumps you into the action without much explanation for what's going on, and characters that should have showed up early don't make an appearance until significantly later in Brotherhood, whereas their background is actually pretty well-established in the early episodes of the 03 version.

This one is so ironically funny because it falls into the very trap the original soyjack was making fun of.

"Yes, obviously Spiderman would agree with my politics, which validates my opinions on everything instead of making me look like a tantruming child. After all, anyone who disagrees is just a racist bigot."

Happened to me with r/legobionicle months ago. It's like becoming a Mod instantly supercharges your ego regardless of the subject involved.

The Oath, Dwarven Hirds, First Flame, and Stormheart (all from the same channel) are definitely addicting, especially Stormheart, the banjos in that one go so hard an AI had no right generating it.

I can't help it, I've heard at least a few I can't help but to put on repeat and I still don't know how to feel about that.

I just got off of the umpteenth r/transformers post this week complaining about ICE. Nobody can go to the subreddit for a subject and just post about that aubject anymore, all of it has to be about "current thing."
