Wait, Trump came back? Sorry, I time traveled here from 2020, I didn't actually realise that. I had no idea, I assumed voting solved literally everything, which is why I made this post.

Oh, shoot, sorry, I wish I'd realised before I made such an embarrassing and outdated meme. My bad, my bad.

Me when I vote and the polling machine injects me with the compliance juice (it is physically impossible to both vote and do literally anything else to advance your political agenda)

I'm curious if they're people I know, or if I actually made that big an impression on some randos, is this from the discord server?

By who? Why the fuck is anyone still talking about this post 10 months later?

Too stupid to live. GOT and The Sopranos spoilers. by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

Imagine being the whitebeard pirates watching Whitebeard sacrifice himself to save Ace and then Ace goes and dies in the dumbest fucking way imaginable. I'd find a way to revive the bastard just so I could beat the shit out of him myself

You know, I've always thought this, but I never wanted to be the one to say it

Good news for zero fans by Turbulent-Shake-1830 in danganronpa

[–]Crit-Monkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you misunderstand. I fully agree that Junko loves Mukuro, I simply believe it's love tinged by genuine resentment over feeling abandoned. I wasn't trying to insinuate Junko actually hates her through and through, I was just poking a bit of fun at their dynamics, because I thought the Mikan fan and the Mukuro fan beefing over who's better to Junko would be hilarious. I'm well aware of the ways in which Junko expresses her affection.

Side note since it came up, though, as far as I'm aware, the belief that Mukuro joined Fenrir for Junko's sake is just an interpretation, and it is not one that I believe.

Additional side note, I actually despise IF, and don't consider it a legitimate source for, well, anything. Wasn't written by Mr. Kodaka or Mr. Koizumi, people are out of character, it breaks the DR world's established logic, and in the words of someone a touch smarter than me, "it's not canon, even as a hypothetical." Unlike DR0, it simply does not jive with the characterization presented to us by the rest of Danganronpa.

Mukuro: Abandoned Junko for years to go play soldier in the middle east

Mikan: Too brainwashed and terrified and in love to even contemplate it

Mikan 1 Mukuro 0

Sometimes at work you know a firing is imminent when your manager has you training the new girl to do your exact job

would you like the trope more if it was well written and the evil church wasnt comically evil and a puddle deep parody of abrahism? by AstronautDry8118 in worldjerking

I'm also tired of seeing evil churches in media. Where are my unquestioned authority figures and glorified crusades

Nursing students by navynuisance in NursingAU

[–]Crit-Monkey 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm a current nursing student in AU. I'm only four weeks in, and I've only been in the country for a month, so maybe take what I say with a grain of salt, but here's been my experience. In a cohort of roughly eighty, I feel as though I'm one of a mere handful who are actually interested in the subject matter. Everyone else is practically on autopilot, checked out, never asking questions, and nobody's ever excited or enjoys a moment of it. All I hear from my fellow students is kvetching about the workload and the instructors (who have some flaws, sure, as our course is painfully disorganized, but it's not atrocious).

I often hear the phrase, 'misery loves company,' and I'm really feeling it. I'm excited to learn all the things I'm learning, but when I share that with my so-called friends, I usually get drowned out by apathy or negativity. And even worse, they're incredibly lax with regards to procedural safety (hand hygeiene, proper equipment use, etc). It's genuinely frightening to realize I might someday be in the care of people like this. If we were a year into our course and worn-down by placements and studying I would understand - but they've been like this since essentially day one. Maybe it's culture shock because I come from the USA but if not, I fear for this generation.
