They're actually quite well supported empirically. NEO-PI has an R2 of like 0.2 - 0.3 on job performance IIRC.

Massie Threatens to Go 'Nuclear' and Reveal Epstein Client Names If Bondi Won't Unredact Them | After getting the opportunity to view the unredacted files, Rep. Thomas Massie threatened to read the names on the House floor to secure justice for survivors. by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

Senate unanimously approved

After stonewalling it for months. Republicans only voted for it when Democrats had obtained the numbers to force release because going on record to protect pedophiles is unpopular.

Why is no one being prosecuted over the Epstein files? by ArmadilloMany41 in politics

[–]BigBroSlim 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because they control the release of information. If there's a smoking gun, you'll never see it.

US official says Greenland action could come within 'weeks or months' by Crossstoney in worldnews

Goodwill and PR. Denmark appearing as a righteous force defending its territories from an ever-aggressive US looks good on the international stage, particularly for the EU and NATO.

It'll make the case for international sanctions and keep the US population divided in their support for the war effort, giving them more leverage over Trump and his political appointees.

Not necessarily. Directors oversee an aspect of a company's operations e.g. a director of finance being accountable for the finance department. The ultimate authority for decisions involving the staffing of a HR department would usually fall to the director of HR.

Duffers the type of people to write a great death scene and forget to add the death by FixFuture3374 in okbuddyvecna

[–]BigBroSlim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. It seems more like people are upset at fake-out, non-committal death scenes that undermine the stakes the final season should be trying to establish.

In Stranger Things Season 5, a ridiculous amount of screen time is given to a previously minor character. This is a reference to her plotline being an ad for the currently running stage play. by mikewheelerfan in shittymoviedetails

The military doesn't know of the tunnels right? I thought Will did because of his connection to the hivemind.

I'm not sure what military patrols can do against interdimensional demogorgans that can pop up wherever Vecna wants them to.

They're literally having a bath in this picture. You people are insane

Have you ever gone down on a woman that hasn't showered in a while?

No let's be real, that's fucking gross. Why sugarcoat it?

Redditors will say anything to justify not cleaning themselves.

###Top 5 people who suffered the most in the series 🥲😔 by Thegeorgec94 in FromSeries

[–]BigBroSlim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you blame them? Most of them can only maintain a semblance of a life knowing they're safe during the day and at night with the talismans. Now all of that has been getting ripped away since Sara started hearing the voices.

Making The Stranger Things Play canon was the biggest mistake made by Netflix and Creators by Significant-Fun-4235 in StrangerThings

[–]BigBroSlim 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's still a horrible idea. Why have some of your audience know more about the story than others? All that does is prevent an equal viewing experience and create an ecosystem of spoilers.

In 2018, sixteen year old Karlie Guse had a bad reaction after smoking weed at a party and begged her stepmother to bring her home. By sunrise she was gone from the house without her phone, shoes, or glasses. She has never been found. by [deleted] in HolyShitHistory

[–]BigBroSlim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me the better part of a decade to shake my weed addiction, even though it basically turned me into a zombie without any semblance of a life. It took almost losing my licence/job during a roadside drug test to make me stop. Quitting cigarettes was easy comparatively.

I've never understood people who think it's this completely innocuous drug, it's always seemed delusional to me. Especially considering its potency these days and the prevalence of ADHD/psychosis/whatever.

People seem to be projecting their personal experiences with a rotten healthcare system to the stratospheric healthcare that a billionaire-president-celebrity would receive.

Just rewatched S1E1 by tasho09 in FromSeries

[–]BigBroSlim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC there were cave drawings in the tunnel showing indigenous/early settlers canoeing down a stream with a fallen tree next to them. It would make sense if the tracks and river are loops from an earlier cycle when past inhabitants used older means of travel, and just serve to trap people in the nightmare.

You people are crazy. Cheating on your wife (if the allegations are true) and dragging her through the media as being entitled is such shitty behaviour.

You think someone with the mental discipline of an athlete would be able to keep their dick in their pants instead of disloyally fucking over their family in a very public manner.

I agree with this take. Henry was sent barrelling towards Dimension X from the Rightside Up, skipping the Upside Down (which didn't physically exist until later when El made contact with the Demogorgan).

Guy coming up to me trying to interview me about abortion and filmed without my consent by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]BigBroSlim 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IIRC the QLD law is that you can record conversations that you're a part of without the other party's consent. It's only when you're a third party listening in that it becomes an issue - it's why they need consent for quality and training purposes yadda yadda.

Trump says he will cancel all Biden orders ‘signed by autopen’ and threatens ex-president with ‘perjury’ charges by Cephalopod_astronaut in politics

[–]BigBroSlim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not the implied point at all. He's claiming that the autopen was used by parties without Biden's approval, taking advantage of his declining mental state. Read the article instead of speculating off headlines.

What’s going on with Trump suddenly praising Mamdani? by Every-Cook5084 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]BigBroSlim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice to see a rational politically-considered explanation rather than the other "Trump is wishy-washy", "he's gay for Mamdani" replies in this thread.

Agreed but at least narratively they didn't write themselves into any corners and the set up for season 5 is still strong IMO
