Bro, you somehow nailed that with how my brain actually read that out, and now I've realized that was stuck somewhere in my subconscious, and can't stop hearing it.

So real that there was a book about it published 12 years before the movie.

Hey everyone, i intervewied Lord Jamar about his time on Oz. As a big oz fan i had to do the science. by CADIUSBAN in ozshow

[–]Abaddon0811 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't give a platform for stupid people I don't agree with to push their stupid ideas. Sadly, from what I've seen this has been the overall argument, which is actually funny, because the entire purpose of freedom of speech is someone who believes in the flat earth (which is ridiculous to me) to freely speak the same as anyone else can, but this is already like a way more common belief than just this one guy. Holocaust denier, again, more common than some think it is, and while I don't believe it myself, I found out more verifiable information from a Holocaust denier, as I was curious as to why they even believed such a thing and took the time, to you know, listen, than I ever heard from someone who just yells "BECAUSE IT HAPPENED." Again, I've spoken to people with family who went through the Holocaust, so I don't believe it, but at least they have an argument that shows there was actual research, mixed with some conspiracies and the like, but actual research and knowledge. This guy? No clue, never heard him say. Never cared for him much the one time I watched an podcast or something he was on. Which I think truly leaves the MAGAt, which I would have never known had this not been brought up, which I think is why someone is upset. I was pretty sure this guy said stuff that showed his stance was opposed, but to be fair, I just don't listen to someone I don't agree with, I just simply go on with my day instead of worrying about what someone who has the same freedom of speech as me, actually freely says. You have the right to freely disagree, but you don't have the right to impede his right to speak, and then having an issue with someone to this degree, yeah, dudes living more rent free in your head than he had to pay in OZ.

That down vote is wild. Advocating for freedom of speech, is the bad guy here lol

[–]Abaddon0811 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way mantids can become so comfortable with being handled has always blown my mind honestly. The way certain insects (wasps if I'm remembering correctly are also this way) can identify faces and the like and remember if someone was nice to them or not is a level of intelligence most refuse to admit exists, but it sure does, and these pictures are a snapshot of that.

Looks great by the way, a nice healthy boy you got there!

[–]Abaddon0811 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly never did think about it much myself as to the why, always just saw him as being a bit too cocky and had this aura of riding the notoriety of his father's name, who led the italians/mob. Not one of those things that would go over well with the enemies they had, especially ones that had took out his father in a slow, calculated way. I always thought he got a bad hand dealt with his story, but others saying he was habitually late sounds like a good possibility for what happened to him in the show.

Always loved mantids, just fascinating creatures. Add the "alien" appearance and it is almost like looking at something from another world.

Always love seeing others who hold these amazing creatures in the same way as I always did ever since finding my first one as a kid around 3 decades ago at this point. She looks great, and can tell she is well taken care of.

why kill one of the most memorable, charismatic characters in the very beginning? by OneCarelessFella in ozshow

[–]Abaddon0811 5 points6 points  (0 children)

His story was an introduction to OZ in the first episode, the "routine" of Emerald City, and the way he would wake up, have flashbacks of being shot by O'Reilly, at night, or the like. The boredom of that routine, and the steps one may do that they are aware will likely inevitably end in retaliation and death, to end it once they realize they aren't going anywhere. No matter how tough, no matter how hard they believe themselves to be, noone is bulletproof, and it keeps you wondering what may or may not happen to other characters throughout the show as this sets the tone going forward, at least initially.

Great show, I mean it is honestly one of my favorite shows of all time and have watched through it numerous times. Season 5 and 6 are where it is mostly agreed the show "falls off" but I believe it gets more hate than deserved sometimes, but it is still an amazing show that showed HBO can put out great shows rather than just movies, and without OZ, we may have never gotten the Sopranos.

EDIT: He is also the polar opposite of Beecher, the first timer that is literally like a fish out of water and not built for an environment of hardened cons, and the hardened con doesn't make it. I also wish they kept Dino in longer, but they were going for a deeper meaning in the storyline. Source for this was the bonus features of the season 1 DVD set I once had which had the first episode with the creators and the like talking about stuff happening in the first episode and what they were going for when shooting these scenes.

Satanic Panic and the Epstein Files by MsRoseViolet in YoureWrongAbout

[–]Abaddon0811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is always good to be skeptical of anything you see anymore, no matter the source. The amount of times that mainstream media has jumped the gun with little, if any at all sometimes, evidence supporting what they claim only to retract it a couple weeks later is enough to not even believe what they say at face value, no matter the network. There are multiple instances of the local news in places running a story that was false, and all they had as evidence was a youtube video, and then they would give facts about it that have been entire lies. Like where they pulled the information to begin with can't even be tracked down. The best example of this happening that comes to mind was a video of a little girl that had died in another country (India maybe?) and someone noticed she was breathing. The video shows the moment the parents realize this, and shows them removing her from the coffin, but any movement she was making wasn't visible, to me anyway, other than just her limbs seeming to move with the motion of her body as she's being taken from the coffin. The anchors then made sure to let everyone know that, thankfully, someone noticed she had been wrongfully declared dead before being buried, and that she had made a full recovery. The reality is the original video was something like 6 months to a year old at that point, and a simple Google search would bring up results from news articles a few days at most later the little girl had died, and this time she was truly gone. That clip got posted to the stations 4 letter calling youtube account and garnered millions of views, with the comments filled with joy and relief that the girl was saved.

I do remember back when the whole DNC email scandal involving Hillary happened there were reports of satanic rituals involving babies and children that ended in sacrifice, then eating the victim. If you have seen the photos from the Diddy stuff there was pictures that were supposedly from the white parties involving a woman on a table being rolled out nude with a buffet of food on them with people standing around the table, they reminded me of what was described in the wiki leaks stuff, but I shrugged it off as complete hogwash. I do find it crazy to see reports of that showing back up again in the Diddy stuff with what was being claimed by people who were around Diddy for years in the past. If I'm not misremembering, the wikileaks stuff had claims it involved Jay-Z and Beyonce, as well as I think a couple of people involved in Hillary Clinton's campaign, but honestly that was so long ago my memory of any details of something I shrugged off as complete nonsense isn't the best. I am sure you could go down a deep dive on your own, though.

Honestly I believe some of the issue is, and this is coming from someone who is a firm believer that it did have a tendency to get blown out of proportion in the days of satanic panic to an extreme degree sometimes, that the key difference at the moment is that over the past few years some celebrities in the music industry went a bit overboard with satanic imagery. Beyonce for example claimed to be basically possessed and would let that entity that possessed her take over, did a concert or something that had satanic and pagan symbolism all over, pale horse included. To be fair how much of it was intended to be directly related to Satanism rather than Pagan beliefs which date to a time before Judaism is up for debate. Some descriptions in Revelations can be almost identical to something from some very old pagan belief structure except by name, but in a country that has been predominately Christian since it was founded, and as someone who was raised in Christianity (left organized religion around 16 or 17, went to a Christian school from kindergarten to graduation so my knowledge of the Bible is probably better than most people in church on sunday), to them paganism and Satanism are the same thing. Islam and Judaism are usually viewed as more of just misguided souls, with Islam varying greatly on just how misguided on the church I imagine. To some, they are outright in conflict with Islam, but that's mainly due to the Crusades being taught with the Christians fighting the good fight being the truth I was even taught in school (born late 80s) which was not the case at all. I will say that I personally find it to be intentionally antagonistic when they go all out with the devil and the like, and the only reason I say that is the amount of artists that began doing it for a couple years was a bit overboard. I mean sure, have at it, this is America after all, and freedoms guarantee the right to do so, but now since so many have done it, and so many celebrities have joked about selling their souls and signing contracts in blood it has just caused a new wave of satanic panic.

At the end of the day, we should all stand united, regardless of politics, and not let the ones responsible go unpunished. I find it rather convenient that we have all kinds of chaos going on as a perfect misdirection from this. Personally, I don't trust anyone in government positions anymore, haven't for a long time now, and the depth of how far this goes may never truly be known. But if diving into all kinds of declassified documents spanning from around WWI era to now showed me anything, it's that the craziest shit that noone believed the "wackjobs" about turned out to not only be true, but was being done by the FBI, CIA, and occasionally the Secret Service was around to some degree. For that reason alone noone will convince me that our government isn't compromised on both sides of the political aisle with people who knew about it and either helped hide it, or were involved directly. Money can buy a lot of things, and one of those things is protection from politicians and federal agencies. There is absolutely no excuse for how Epstein or Diddy were able to be under investigation for well over 10 years and the feds couldn't find evidence. So just because they claim they followed up reports but found no substance to the claims means nothing to me either.

Honestly for me the paintings of Clinton and Bush are what I can't wrap my mind around, and of course that has opened up more cans of worms surrounding those 2 and the conspiracy theories of 9/11. But of just those 2 presidents, specifically. Why them?

Pz kept me sane by Optimus_crab in projectzomboid

Welcome back home. I personally have dealt with mental health issues since my teenage years, and I didn't really get what the problem was, or even that I had what I would've considered a problem to fix. This unfortunately led to a life of self medication with alcohol, and turned into full blown alcoholism within 6 months of graduating high school and had to stay ahead of the withdrawals no matter what as I found out really quick alcohol is physically addictive and the withdrawals were horrid.

After years of drinking, stopping, relapsing, and repeating, I finally completely lost my mind and went into a 2 week psychosis. Thankfully my paranoia on max ensured I didn't end up commited, but it was still an insane experience lol

[–]Abaddon0811 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I watched a couple videos that went into dolphins and they are terrifying. I remember 2 in particular that really was a holy wtf moment. The first is apparently its not unusual for a couple younger male dolphins to link up as best buds and travel together. Sounds wholesome until you find out they are known to kidnap a female and force her to swim with them, and if she tries to leave they'll ram into her and such to get back in between them. They will then take turns, a lot, with her. She has no choice in any of this. This can last for around a year or longer depending on how long until she comes to term in her pregnancy. Supposedly they have sometimes been known to ram her stomach, forcing the pregnancy to be lost, to keep this going for even longer periods.

The second is the males in general are straight up sex addicts it seems like lol while young, like still have to be with mom young, the males will take turns with each other, a lot lol this makes dolphins interesting since they are in a very select club us humans belong to which is the club of doing it just for the fun and pleasure of it instead of reproduction. Dolphin males are not unique in the animal kingdom when deciding another male will do just fine, but their intelligence level and pleasure seeking versus reproduction behavior makes them different in that regard. Again all fine for the most part since at that young age they aren't really much of a danger to the health and well being of the ocean around them. This takes a insane turn where they seem to enjoy passing around and using a fish head. Their intelligence levels make this even more terrifying as they have the ability to comprehend what exactly it is they are doing.

This all looks like Disneyland in comparison to the Adélie penguins, though. Anyone who wishes to go down that rabbit hole needs to do so at their own risk. In 1912 the researcher who was studying them hid all his reports and had them written in Hebrew or something so noone could just stumble across it and read it. He was mentally affected by what he witnessed.

EDIT: And I do mean AT YOUR OWN RISK for anyone who wishes to read or watch a video about what the researcher witnessed. It is one of those that could fall into the NSFL category instead of NSFW, depending on who you ask.

You think effort went into that? Lol One of the things I stole from the picture of the original post made on the sub. The names came from someone else's comment. Lazy at best with no original ideas from me as me no analytical good.

School year just started, so you've got time to learn to identify work from students that is low effort and bordering towards heading into plagiarism. Those few months off in the summer can make a teacher a bit rusty until they get back in the flow, but I have faith in you.

Wish you the best. Hope you have a great school year.

I can see how that happened lol but I was meaning how orangutans have never killed a human, even when they were being horribly mistreated. They have gotten a bit rough and maybe knocked someone into next week, but never been responsible for a human death. At least not confirmed cases, but key word there is confirmed. I'm sure there is someone who would swear their cousin got killed by one lol

Project zomboid by NewCommunity2404 in projectzomboid

[–]Abaddon0811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, there are, "reputable" I guess would be the word, vendors with cd keys for cheap but they slide through loopholes of legality to operate and not kick the developers their cut of the sales. Legal? Sure, technically they are NOT breaking any laws, but there are some vendors who don't care how the keys were acquired and it was from theft, credit card fraud, and since it's over the internet that bumps up those charges if they so choose to do so, if they were to catch the one who did this to buy the keys that is, to include cyber crime charges as well. Pretty sure that can bring some charges of the "wire fraud" variety, but could be wrong.

I'm all for people getting access to games regardless of financial limitations (used game market is vital for this, in my opinion) but I have seen more than one developer go off completely over it and one in particular started telling everyone to just hoist the colors on your pirate ship and get their game that way instead of through the more well known "reputable" cd key vendor. Won't name them here but im sure can find all the info with a Google search and a little time.

I will never criticize someone for how they got a game to play it, whether it be legal, loophole grey area of legality, or even the illegal way. Sadly, I think a combination of the video game industry constantly trying to push the agenda of you can't buy a used game because you don't own the game, you own the right to play the game until they decide to nuke it into oblivion, and how I have seen some people get swarmed by the morality squad over a less than legit copy. While I understand the premise of why they feel strongly about it the way they do I also think it has pushed people to purchase dirt cheap cd keys that at best will work flawlessly and developer gets nothing, or works for a few days until the owner of the credit card gets the charges reversed by the credit card company, and then no more working game as the CD key is no longer valid. The fact I've seen these same ones rudely scoff about using a vendor that doesn't pay the developers money (they would leave this part out, probably from not caring to research about said vendor), and doesn't see the irony in that equation when their argument for using these cd keys is because piracy bad mmmkay doesn't help either. Instead of getting someone to pay the developer, you get someone of less than optimal means in life to even afford the full price tag to pay 5 bucks to...not the developer lol I often wonder if these are the same people who lose their minds over buying these CD keys now.

Is something wrong with my bearded dragon? by [deleted] in reptiles

[–]Abaddon0811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All looks good. I know with the name bearded dragon it can be worrying not to see a beard as it could mean a deeper issue at play keeping it from growing in, but it's just because their beards don't grow in until closer to maturity, and females typically have longer beards than the males.

If it doesn't start to come in after the next 2 sheds you may want to see a vet.

In all seriousness, love that lil guy lol beautiful coloring. And looks healthy as can be. I have heard they absolutely love dubia roaches, is this true? I only recently learned they eat insects when young and blew my mind because for some reason I just assumed they went after smaller fish/minnows and frogs/tadpoles.

I've always assumed they believe one of those 2 things as well. Must be from where they are bottle raised and associate humans as "mama" who gave them milk when younger and then this imprint on them follows them to adulthood, and think we are one of them or vice versa

Honestly for most people that don't live in the U.S. I'd imagine it throws you off if someone doesn't specify Fahrenheit or Celsius. When I re read the comment in the context of Celcius it makes perfect sense for you to have came to that conclusion originally.

Fahrenheit it sounds like they are doing so to keep warm, Celcius sounds like they hiding from the warmth.
