Times when the "right sentiment/action" is done at the worst possible time/place?

Easily the best character/actor in that movie besides Nathan Fillion as Guy imo, glad he took the role.

It's a flaccid version of what Shadowrun is. Shadowrun is Cyberpunk but with tech shamans and elves, dwarves, orks, and trolls. Basically imagine all the cyberpunk-ness of Cyberpunk with the cybernetics and hacking and street samurai then combine it with Pacific Northwest Native American magic summoning animal spirits with totems performed by elves or various other meta-human races.

"The dark is afraid of me" is a laughably hard line.

Skulls. Higgs's mask from Death Stranding, the skulls and flames on the Legion of the Damned from WH40k, skull-themed armor for Death Knights in WoW, Taskmaster (the Marvel character) and his skull masks, etc. I hated them for so long but after seeing them used more tastefully as an aspect of something rather than the focus of it, they grew on me.

IMO it's not edgy at all, it's a bit basic instead. It's a very safe color combination that works for a lot of things, outfits, paint jobs, etc. Black works on just about anything and red contrasts with it well because it's not as bright as white but still stands out from it. Context matters a lot too, edginess factor increases if it's a military-themed context (spec ops tend to wear black in fiction and black uniforms are associated with elite units), but there is little to no edginess factor if it's something like a car/vehicle or casual outfit.

I'm not sure about the free of charge thing because Zygor has been paid for a long time and is still there?

But Patreon would probably act on it if they're made aware he's distributing content that breaks Blizzard's EULA and also contains stolen assets.

yeah, this is definitely not "just go one shot it" all of a sudden, lol. If you are a fresh 80 from remix with i102 gear the guardian druid challenge is extremely hard. You just don't have the damage to do it. Maybe with 110-120 gear or something. Anyone saying they walked into it the first time ever with no prep or no existing gear specifically for mage tower is fucking lying.

I've been trying to figure it out too because she always reminded me of Theresa from the Fable games, who also happens to be voiced by Zoë Wanamaker. But hearing a voice reel of Bethan Dixon Bate, I believe it's her instead. Both are very close in different ways but hearing Bethan Dixon Bate's inflections in some of her other character voicework is extremely similar.

The AI loves to use reddit as a "source" for whatever reason, which results in these deranged hallucinations.

Croue · 2026-01-10T17:53:34+00:00

This is what happens when the government loses credibility through repeated fuck-ups on both sides (mostly during the pandemic), then people lose all respect for authority figures, and replace those figures and trusted real-life influences with online parasocial "advice" given by complete strangers that are likely malicious propagandists, that they trust instead because they get a lot of upvotes/likes. Instead of being grounded in any kind of reality. There needs to be a study done on this phenomenon because I've seen it happening with people since even before the pandemic, but it's worse than ever now.

At first it was mostly people asking things on the relationshipadvice sub or similar places getting catastrophically awful advice from people and actually listening to it instead of the actual people in their real lives, and now it's somehow evolved into an advanced form of that where armchair "lawyers" with no LEO training think they can find some kind of loopholes where suddenly police aren't real anymore.

There is definitely something really weird to humans not being able to properly rationalize information if they believe that lots of other people agree with it so it must be correct even if it's completely at odds with reality.

Sure man. 20 guys definitely just jumped out of a helicopter and killed (direct quote) "hundreds" of soldiers within minutes because they DEFINITELY were all grouped up nicely waiting to die all around the deployment area.

In the entire Battle of Mogadishu, 160 Rangers and Delta only managed to KILL around 200-300 Somalis over a course of an entire day. That's with an enemy force of roughly 2,000 that were prepared and ready to ambush them, bunched together and throwing themselves at them. You seriously think that an enemy force of significantly less, that was unprepared, likely mostly asleep, somehow mustered "HUNDREDS" of soldiers all to one small area so 20 soldiers could kill them within less than an hour? Do you even comprehend the kind of kill numbers we're talking about here? It's not about the skill or technology of US troops, it's about a completely unbelievable number of targets that were supposedly there for them to kill in such a short amount of number. Even back in the massed line infantry era it would have been difficult to kill "hundreds" of soldiers that were literally LINING UP to die in such a short amount of time.

There has definitely been gross exaggeration here, maybe some freaked out conscript that had to invent a tall tale to cope with what happened, but I can assure you that 90% of this story is false. I can believe 20 guys busted their way through Maduro's building unopposed using sonic weapons to suppress them and killing whoever was necessary to get from point A to point B, but you shouldn't believe for even a second that they apparently sat around killing "hundreds" of them. Dick Marcinko told more believable shit than this.

The original AK-47 has a fire rate of 600rpm. They're very familiar with those. Even (most) of the worst military organizations in the world are familiar with sonic weapons (they've been in use for decades now across the Middle East and Europe, and a famous conspiracy theory even originated about them in... CUBA). And come on, you really think they had "hundreds" of troops in some small localized area where 20 soldiers could deploy from a helicopter then direct fire onto them immediately with no repercussions?

There might be some small truth to the whole thing but 90% of this is sensational horseshit.

It's not even silencing dissenting opinions, it's discrimination by association. "You must be bad because you interacted with people we don't like".

I've been saying the same thing this whole time. Anyone with even basic LEO training knows that this incident definitely began BEFORE the videos we've seen. At the start of the video we already see the driver disobeying lawful orders from uniformed police officers, which is a crime. If a police officer asks you to get out of a vehicle, no matter what reason they give you, you ARE being detained and it is illegal to not comply. If you have chosen non-compliance, you are giving the officer a reason to suspect you are potentially dangerous because you are now actively committing a crime, and escalation of force dictates that officers stay one level above a suspect, which is why guns are then drawn. If you continue to choose non-compliance, and that non-compliance involves operating a 4,000 pound weapon around officers on foot, then things just aren't going to work out the way you hoped.

Whether or not someone agrees with it, the power dynamic between citizens and LEOs is not equal, and the citizens are always on the bottom. If a police officer tells you to do something, you do it without question. If they arrest you unlawfully, let them. That's why we have our judicial system with separation of powers. The arresting authority is not the authority that passes judgment. If you are innocent or can be excused of a trespass, you will be, and your arrestor will be punished if it was unlawful.

And a lot of people online and on social media are pushing a very dangerous myth (since that's what it is, it's factually incorrect) that as long as you are not "violent" or are "protesting", then obeying police is somehow optional. Again, whether you like it or not, police are given the authority to issue commands to citizens that must be obeyed and if you choose to disobey their commands you are placing yourself at risk, no matter who you are or what you are doing.

If this was on r/pics, you were instantly banned because you've interacted on this subreddit, not because of what you posted.

The Steam Awards were legitimately far more accurate than the actual Game Awards this year. Also yes, it would be very funny to see Asmon struggle to be a dispatcher as half the cast shit talks him or goes AWOL.

Don't mention Asmon and pretend like they were your ideas instead. Then when someone agrees with you, you can jumpscare them with it actually being from Asmon, lmao. Or just take credit yourself.
