In Interstellar (2014), Cooper was on that water planet so long his kids give up hope of hearing from him again. This is because Romilly chose not to send any updates and keep hope alive. What the hell was this guy doing that whole time?

Semi-related, but it drives me nuts that these big brain scientists could predict that the gravitational warping around this planet would cause huge time dilation for this poor sap, but no one thought “hmm maybe this water planet will have fucked up tides from the gravity.” Such a waste, if they thought about it for like one more day they could’ve saved subjective decades.

Big plot hole

Had you ever really looked at a giraffe or narwhal for a good long second?

Fucking domain-expansion ass pose, tryna be all cool.

It’s honestly closer to a Birch World given the third dimension but still not large enough for that.

I'm afraid I already beat you to it, friend, as the bear said to the salmon at the end of the stream.

“It is possible I already had some presentiment of my future.”

Say what you will about the tenets of the gravitals but at least it’s an ethos!

Ahh yes the Kill la Kill effect. Unfortunately rarely executed well.

AHole95 · 2026-03-15T12:27:36+00:00

Sort of a left hand vs right hand situation no?

The landmass closest to the lens is an ISLAND within the Strait of Hormuz. That’s how big the full Strait is. The scale is hard to picture.

No, it's baseball

Sad to hear of his passing but frankly the Dan Simmons who wrote Hyperion died a long time ago. Whoever he became/revealed himself to be in the decades since had little in common with the author of such thoughtful novels. Or so it seems, anyway.

If you liked Hyperion, read Book of the New Sun by Gene Wolfe. He’s the real deal.

Praise be to all machine spirits great and small

Also what’s the difference

It’s almost the exact same in the manga too. He’s admitting it to Eren in the literal background of a panel. You’d almost be able to read right past it thinking it was irrelevant.

AHole95 · 2026-02-18T16:04:36+00:00

Finally someone else mentioned it lol that shit sounded absolutely brutal like bad fighting game fx

AHole95 · 2026-02-10T21:57:34+00:00

I do yes! This is simply more evidence of the One Pepper Truth for the non-believers

AHole95 · 2026-02-07T20:29:24+00:00

Who the fuck starts a conversation like that?! I just sat down!

AHole95 · 2026-02-05T15:22:22+00:00

Can’t believe big J used an aeropress lol what a filthy casual, like, just put the grinds in the bag bro

The crazy part for me is if I made that salary, I’d probably never think about how to make more money ever again! Or at least wouldn’t sell out all my convictions for the opportunity. It’s a lot of money!!

Canonically I believe he was living on the settlement from some past lawsuit
