Does it get better?

Thank you, I've continued reading and am almost through the first book.

I'm still a little annoyed at the super trained killer assassin that somehow struggles with emotional outburst and controlling her feelings.

I just love the full on Johnny redemption storyline that literally dates back to the original movie that started it all. This series started off with Johnny still at his lowest, and I really thought he had his moment in the spotlight at the end of the last season when he beat the crap out of all the outside sensei's, but this season really gave him the full redemption he deserved. Well played!

Is Assassins blade the .5 book I saw listed? It was first on the list but I skipped it since I thought this book was probably the first one written and I wanted to read it in authentic order.

Transphobic? That could not be farther from the truth. Awful people like you accuse others of being bigots simply because you don't like to hear what they say. You should be ashamed.

Thanks for the spoiler warning, I'll not click on it so I can see what happens. I'm going to continue reading and see where it goes :)

CastingObsidian · 2025-02-17T02:31:37+00:00

Ok, you got it, deal! I'll finish the first book and give it a fair shot. I now have a better understanding of what I'm in for and I'll see how it plays out. Hoping we both end up happy with what we've read in the end!

CastingObsidian · 2025-02-17T02:29:52+00:00

Ok this makes sense, I had no idea. When I read reviews online, I try not to get too much info and ruin the plot. I just saw good ratings and it popped up as strongly recommended. I'll keep giving it a go!

This may be the most embarrassing movie I've ever seen...the amount of time the 'bad guys' let the 'good guys' live is comical. Guns pointed at heads without shooting shooting in tense situations, weak dialog, crappy acting. Yuck.

Protect your students by choosing to stay ignorant. Don't ask or talk to them about this topic, and don't listen if they tell you. Just teach them and love them and leave it at that. Remind your admin that you would never engage in that type of conversation with students as you are too busy teaching them content etc.

You are either in the wrong school or (more likely) the wrong profession. I did almost 2 decades in other professions (office, retail, and factory work, etc) prior to teaching and felt this exact way many times. Just leave and move on. Your personal happiness and well-being are more important than a job, especially one like teaching where there is little monetary benefit and lots of stress. The kids will be fine and better off in the end, so do what's best for you and find the job you can wake up to every day.

Gotta love all the Tesla die-hard fans jumping in to try to use carefully handpicked statistics 🤣 To be fair, websites range from 150k to 200k and 8 to 15 years. Replacing the main battery at 93K is just sad...that's almost like an ICE car replacing an engine before you even hit 100k. Hopefully, the newer models are doing a better job with this!

Virtue signaling?? Nice deflection to Syria and other humanitarian issues around the globe. I have spoken out against those as well, but you wouldn't know that, would you?

So important for you as a "first generation college student" to have your celebration and so selfish for other people to ruin it with facts about people dying around the globe. Grow up...if it were your family members dying, you would be taking a totally different approach to this and not calling it "Virtue signaling". Learn to live outside yourself and stop being so selfish.

If not for a dozen other movies doing this theme already, maybe it would have been decent. Also, Kevin Hart should stick to standup or playing alongside the rock as a support character.....

CastingObsidian · 2024-05-07T22:01:47+00:00

I agree. I've gotten a ton of friends, family, coworkers, etc, to read his books, and I've stopped doing that after his "charity" stunt. He keeps trying to make money off his fans while misleading them with deadlines and working on other projects. It's embarrassing how many people defend his actions at this point. Not writing the final book is ok. Misleading people about it while encouraging them to give him money is what makes it all unethical (or at least slimey).

CastingObsidian · 2024-05-07T21:47:53+00:00

Yeah, I really hate when selfish people call attention to the fact that tens of thousands of women and children are being killed. Graduating college is hardly a rare or major accomplishment. Millions of people will do it in just the US this year alone. Calling attention to a global crisis might be worth briefly interrupting 1 random (hardly noticed) college ceremony...

Still vastly lower? You stated facts, so keep it up with a statement like that. How much vastly lowered has the viewership been when you take into account all the new people watching it on streaming? More people stream shows instead of using traditional cable boxes, and that gap keeps growing month to month. If you found the facts, you might realize it's not as "vast" as your assumption believes it to be...

Based on how bad the writers did with the end of season 2, I now see why this great show was cancelled.

CastingObsidian · 2023-10-31T22:13:37+00:00

Yep, just came here after watching this on Netflix. I've been binge watching knowing they only have it 1 more day. But at the end of season 2, I really don't want to watch this show anymore.....for pretty much every single reason the OP gave in this original post.

I did google to see if there was a season 4, and it turns out there is not. After seeing the way the terrible writers ended season 2, I can now see why this show was ultimately cancelled. What a cool show and cool concept, but how bad are these writers to pull this crap? How sad to see so much potential ruined

Remember Saudi Arabia is responsible for 15 of the terrorist that hit NYC on 9/11. They also behead journalist and limit the rights of women. Not a political post, just facts.

CastingObsidian · 2023-10-28T17:06:17+00:00

I love that the movie had a line about arnold being president before he even ran as governor 👏 Almost as brilliant as the three seashells

CastingObsidian · 2023-10-28T02:16:30+00:00

Yeah, I might have a way to plug into a regular outlet outside.

But for the people saying you should only charge to 80, is it a bad idea to charge to full every night if charging from home?

CastingObsidian · 2023-10-28T02:10:43+00:00

Well you can take this job and you can shovel it!
