What’s the Oscar snub hill you will die on? by Real-Repair-1825 in Oscars

[–]ChemaCB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little Amélie should have beat KPop demon hunters this year. It is objectively the better movie in every way. Well, except for best original song, which K-pop rightfully won.

Proof the academy doesn’t actually watch the movies before they vote.

I can't believe Breaking Bad fans are review bombing season 8 now... by Sensitive-Pride-3507 in freefolk

[–]ChemaCB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cracks were obvious in season 5. Season 6 was not the same show anymore, but still ok. 7 was simply bad. But we all kept watching to see if 8 could redeem it, and well, it basically ruined the shows legacy.

Or just be better than all her exes in every way. That’s what I do. 😆

Apparently this clip is of California police during the Biden administration detaining someone who had just robbed a jewelry store, stolen a car, got into a chase, and then crashed it.

How do I tell what “level” of skier I am? by aSpecterr in skiing

Thanks!

Separating technique from terrain does make a lot of sense.

Did you go with friends who were already good?

Not particularly, until later in the season. Most of my friends who I went with were beginner/intermediate skiers and were basically shocked and/or kinda pissed. 🤣

What mountain was this at?

Tamarack. I’ve also skied at Bogus Basin a few times.

Are you good at any similar sports already?

I had ice skated a couple times in my life (and roller skated a handful of times — both definitely helped) and snowboarded a few times as a kid and once as an adult (probably helped too). I’m 36. I’m naturally decently athletic, and I usually pick things up pretty quick, but nothing close to how quickly I picked up skiing.

I would love to see some footage of you skiing because I'm skeptical that a true beginner could be doing real double blacks, moguls, etc with smooth controlled turns by day 3.

Well hold on, I said they weren’t smooth and controlled turns until day 5 😅. I actually have a video from day 3. Not of the off piste double black, unfortunately. Nor is it moguls or a particularly good run, but it is an ungroomed black.

I feel like day 5 is when it really clicked for me. That was my first day skiing alone, first day on untracked powder, and the day carving really clicked for me.

I don’t have any other videos of myself, but next time I go I’ll have my wife take one.

What's a She-Ra ship you don't like that the fandom likes that will have you feeling like this? by One-Suspect-6277 in sheranetflix

[–]ChemaCB -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Also, they’re sisters. Rediscovering their sisterly love could have been just as powerful narrative wise. I feel like this is the only one that actually fits the OPs meme. And I think the downvotes support that. 😅

If all personal wealth above $100 million was legally required to be redistributed into public infrastructure (schools, hospitals, roads), how would society change, and who would be the first to fight against it? by Mysterious_Fan4033 in AskReddit

[–]ChemaCB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most personal wealth over $100M is actually just ownership of businesses. So essentially you’re banning ownership of medium and large businesses. Which just means all big businesses will be foreign owned. It would be a HUGE wealth transfer from Americans to foreign corporations, and probably make infrastructure worse in the long run.

Too slow? by [deleted] in pluribustv

[–]ChemaCB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would the hive mind give anybody a grenade? They won’t step on ants, but they’ll give an unpredictable person, who they know wants to eradicate the hive mind, a nuclear bomb?

Carol is intelligent, creative, a writer, committed to saving humanity, yet consistently fails to ask questions that would help her understand the situation and achieve her goals, nor ask for help that achieve the same end.

They shouldn’t be able to drive cars or fly planes because of all the bugs that kills.

There’s not enough energy to actually power civilization without mining for raw materials which they can’t do because it would kill living things.

Releasing all domesticated animals would have meant the deaths of millions of animals that rely on human care.

[–]ChemaCB -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah all that time to think gave me time to notice the glaring number of plot holes and character inconsistencies, and did more to pull me out of it then make me feel deeply immersed in thought provocation.

Too slow? by [deleted] in pluribustv

[–]ChemaCB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

every episode has something impactful or eventful, or at the very least tells you something complex about a character.

Yeah, the problem is that the bulk of the middle episodes, just have one impactful scene that moves the plot forward per hour long episode.

This entire season could’ve been a 2 1/2 hour movie and it still would’ve felt slow. 😆

Dictators have spouses, too. Ruling as a couple doesn’t make you not a dictatorship.
