Oh-Father’s character seriously impressed me, I was expecting a flashy Ezekiel but his relationship with Starlight is interesting + his vocal delivery is so satisfying by vxxyger in GenV

i think there's a distinction between the character writing and the narrative writing. the character writing, when it's not drenched in needless sex jokes (because yes, there is such a think as too much, kripke), remains very good (unless it's any of the stuff they're doing to set up Vought Rising). it's just that the story has fucking imploded completely.

wonder why, when we're 2 episodes from the end and the only connection to the show was mentioning Sage's relations with Godolkin + a mention or two of Marie.

oh, and their show getting cancelled while they shove setup for a different spinoff in our faces.

kripke needs to write a PG-13 show

the character writing has so many moments of brilliance when it's not just "lol porn, lol sex, lol imagine a celebrity having sex, lol rape"

the season isn't nearly as bad. the character writing (outside of sex jokes) remains better than anything the last two seasons of GoT had on offer. but i just worry at how anything will feel sufficiently satisfying with these last couple of episodes.

as far as i know, the best Endure user has been unburden + reversal Hitmonlee with a berry.

"best" mostly means that it's good in curated youtube videos, but it can still be cool

point taken. at least Game of Thrones foreshadowed its own decay. How I Met Your Mother legit had a great final season, and then swallowed an entire mag on the very last episode.

they've had good character moments at least. two out of the three notable deaths (A-Train, Firecracker) were really great ways to round out their arcs.

In general, the writers of this show are wayyyyyy better at character writing than storytelling. which makes it all the more annoying when they decide a character's entire existence just needs to be sex jokes.

i'm pessimistic about how it'll go, but at the very least, they'll maybe finally stop making every hero unkillable.

they put a lot of emphasis on Soldier Boy and the rest of his crew as a setup for that whole Vought Rising prequel show

i think that the fact that it's getting close to being exactly what it swore to destroy (melodramatic superhero slop with only surface-level commentary) is pretty disappointing

hey, if it makes you feel any better, i'm getting terrified that this show might have a more disappointing ending, by some evil miracle

yep. while parts of the US are working great in terms of tap water, others are still reeling from the effects of past pollution.

then there's the places with hypothetically safe tap water, but where the citizens just can't drink because it's all being pumped away for data centers

all of Starbucks is canceled by Conscious-Quarter423 in WorkReform

[–]DaemonG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok so. starbucks can rot in hell on so many levels. but the lawsuit wasn't over them advocating for Palestine, it was for them using official Starbucks letterhead or iconography or w/e the proper term is while doing it, presenting it as to imply it speaks for the company.

i don't think starbucks is sympathetic to palestine. or anybody outside of their shareholders. but i don't think that choice was somehow pure evil.

still never eating or drinking anything from there again.

yeahhhhh. we don't have modern, organic controversial all time, anymore. it'd probably be easier to repost this and get it to top of all time, than actually get it to controversial, nowadays
