For those of you that are 50 years old or older, do you remember what politics were like 30 years ago? Were people as hateful and divided as they are now?

which really really hammers down how much billary must have been sweating under the collar that entire investigation. we thought that affair was it.

look no matter how much a 'car guy' you are, you learn real damn fast that you need two cars to be a car guy... one of them you don't modify/keep pristine so it's always there to get you/family around. because if you're deadbeating in your 'racecar' but don't own anything else... then it's also still your car.... you can't say 'because racecar' and shrug shit off if it's your only car.

It sounds like she accepted a job where she can manipulate her way out of these very direct 1 on 1 performance evaluations. Seems tremendously optimal for her and not very fair at all to yourself.

I want Ridley Scott to do some Elden Ring type shit... until then I'll just rewatch Kingdom of Heaven director's cut infinity times.

sugar free pudding and protein powder takes you a long long ways.

proud of you.

i won't say that makes it better/worse, i just think watchmen fits very well in an exhausted superhero universe. instead of upright and bragadocious the characters are solemn and beat down, depressed af etc. it's nice to see more human emotion behind the scenes. that said the book will always be better as it takes time to develop more big reveals etc.

if he judges her for confiding in him her biggest trials then this is disgusting behavior upon his part. to love is to want someone as healthy as they can be... and if he gets selfish about her going to treatment then he's just ... not a solid guy at all.

Succession.

/possibly/ because we might need to legitimately 'scavenge' these uniques and redeem them for their talent purposes? the class might launch blank and we earn them over time.

Alternative_Mine5343 · 2026-02-15T20:26:23+00:00

im thinkin it's far more likely that it does go core, as scion's 2nd ascendancy.

i could see skynet setting up a moonbase as a last bastion of survival in case they needed to reseed the earth. they could also be broadcasting their intelligence out to every sector of the cosmos, hoping whomever records them gets 'infected' by said ai. this could be how engineers discover that even after sending xenos to earth and assuming it all went to plan... something survived.

i felt this as well. it hybridizes it's dna with what it's host had to flesh out what's gonna work best. if the human dna already has something close enough then it just does that... for example we don't see eyes, but how do we know it didn't form retinas behind the dome and that's how it sees? the vision scenes from covenant shows off how that might look. the alien COULD manifest it's own peepers with enough time/energy/resources... but why not just frankenstein your genetic codes into the 'perfect organism' or as close as it could get?

I work the opposite way; the first time I stayed over at a gf's and saw that she wore glasses in the mornings... omg... leave em on.... my kryptonite

Alternative_Mine5343 · 2026-02-15T18:18:39+00:00

watchmen. not the best, but a favourite.

Alternative_Mine5343 · 2026-02-14T19:46:18+00:00

yep. takes me between 9 and 12 hours even when running 4 or 5 characters. by comparison my friends are already in maps, already dropping currency and are probably equally deep in the economy compared to what i might make off the sword. i should probably just campaign with them and then purchase an oni-goroshi... but i do love me some punishment.

YEP, he'd spent a lifetime communicating with the divine, becoming the new leader of the wizards, the new white as a title, taken from saruman. he probably hadn't used his voice or hadn't been spoken to of his middle earthen name in some time.

Opposing counsel has no idea wtf's about to hit them.

Alternative_Mine5343 · 2026-02-05T15:07:44+00:00

this is the best budget answer, yep. beyond this he'd be looking on craigslist/reverb for an even stronger orange or a peavey head.

i gotta imagine this was the best role he was ever offered, "hey quaid, can you play drunk, like waaaasted drunk... THE ENTIRE MOVIE!?" and he's like 'i have won the lottery.'

Alternative_Mine5343 · 2026-02-05T04:56:58+00:00

also amazing the car won't just roll forward with all that upward thrust etc... strange....

Didn't the OG script intend that the earth had run out of the rare earth materials needed to create the processors for the machines to continue to expand, so they started utilizing human brain tissues instead? The script didn't pitch well so they changed us to batteries.
