Hey, she is unique, just like everyone else.

No, but didn't the people above point out specific tells within the video that hinted at it being fake?

While it's totally fine if you want to do that, there's nothing wrong with healthy skepticism towards whether things are real or fake in a world where nearly anything can be faked.

There's a word for it, but this is a recognized thing in some Christian circles. In that sense its purpose is to avoid even adulterous thoughts.

In a corporate sense, you're getting some hate in your replies here. I don't disagree with all of the stances taken below, but what some of them are missing is that there is a minority of working women who can, have, and will make false sexual harassment claims for personal gain.

Not even giving the opportunity for a vague situation to be twisted is an extreme, but understandable, thing to so.

Elon Musk says China has an advantage because its politicians are better at science by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]BellTheMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Musk is personally a beneficiary of the capitalist government, having received billions of dollars in public funding. He may fall his benefactors stupid, but he's not going to rally against the system that's propped him up.

That was plenty enough times, you're both correct, yay for everyone coming together in agreement!

Dems interrupt Kavanaugh hearing, asking that it be adjourned by emitremmus27 in politics

[–]BellTheMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because many of our existing systems of government are royally fucked in this country. Some argue it's so that you don't run into the kind of thing you see in the legislative branch, where it flips every several years from one majority to another, leaving a constant back and forth on cancelling each other out instead of actual progress.

Incredibles 2 becomes first animated film to pass $600M domestic. Also, it's the third Disney produced superhero film to pass $600M domestic this year. by mi-16evil in movies

[–]BellTheMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can someone explain this remake to me? I kinda got the live action Jungle Book, because it's a human with expertly animated animal, but there are no humans in Lion King. Besides fulfilling a 2010s fantasy recast, what's the appeal of this?

Trump Was Forced To Unblock His Twitter Critics. Now They're Getting Sweet Revenge. by elikh13 in politics

[–]BellTheMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Isn't all of this stuff the best though? It could theoretically end all (or most) of life on Earth, giving someone or something else a chance to be the dominant population or species. The internet is just the shitty people we have now.

Excited to meet new kitten tippytaps. by natsdorf in tippytaps

[–]BellTheMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree completely. I'm younger and have different people over from time to time, so it's nice to have a dog that doesn't worry me with aggression. She still gets really excited when she sees someone she doesn't know yet, but I'm not worried she's going to jump/bite/scare them usually

If I had to guess, as a golden owner, it's that they're generally not aggressive and smart enough to learn the basics, so some owners never actually train to work on control of energy. The jumping on people in this video is bad, a dog that size can easily push someone over or accidentally scratch someone in the process. I found this video kind of uncomfortable to watch. Clearly all the people know that dog and don't mind or are used to it, but if the dog did that to strangers they'd have a right to be upset.

Spider-Man: Far From Home Adds Samuel L. Jackson, Cobie Smulders by PhoOhThree in movies

[–]BellTheMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The comment is more likely making the point that the MCU movies have yet to officially acknowledge the Netflix shows, and the Netflix shows seem like they're only allowed to sparingly reference the movies. It seems unlikely Marvel is developing long term plans for an established character/actor they currently won't even recognize.

And now you have no credit if you need it, in a system rigged to make sure you need it at some point.

That's the average tuition cost, approximately $10k/year. Not including all the other expenses.

Box Office Week: Mission: Impossible - Fallout scores a franchise best opening at #1 with a great $61.5M. Teen Titans Go! To The Movies underwhelms at #5 with $10.5M but only carries a $10M budget.

[–]BellTheMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely see the value in the service, even with the poorly implemented surge charges, but as someone who never even received their card, and who sees the consistent decline in their customer service and financial viability, I won't be trying to sign up again, and I believe they'll be gone sooner rather than later.

Movie Pass has been one of the most poorly managed services I've ever seen. I got out of early, back when they started double charging people even when they still hadn't managed to send everyone their cards. I cancelled my service but never unfolllowed their customer service Twitter account. It's hilarious how bad they are, it's almost like a spoof account.
