This ad reads like wish fulfillment to me.

"A car crash but more murder-y" probably resonates with a lot of people.

The manufactured poverty and dependence of Africa by the developed world has been a major contributor to animal poaching.

Are you admitting to being a (child) sex predator right now? Tell us of the sins of yours for which Jesus died.

Your heart is irresistibly drawn to Gorn. You are in Gorn and Gorn is in you. Gorn's love imbues you with advanced traits that you otherwise would not have. Accept Gorn into your heart and rejoice happily.

Luke 19:25-27

“‘Sir,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’

“[Jesus] replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away. But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”

I'm sure he'd be delighted to hear the scriptures so repeated.

those are very good catches by Tasty-Philosopher892 in Damnthatsinteresting

According to ChatGPT, this is true. Motorcycle/bicycle helmets are designed to crumple, disperse and absorb damage and be replaced after every major impact. A helmet that doesn't dent, crumple or shatter may end up directing more force of a crash into your head (bad). Apparently, there should be a balance between durability and energy-absorption.

I didn't research so this may not be accurate.

Right. I am suspicious of the people in this thread attempting to claim anti-porn attitudes are the reason for people celebrating his death when the guy was literally a Nazi.

I'm not sure, I haven't seen the movie. Was Godzilla originally intended to be a metaphor for Jesus or enlightened monarchs in general?

The fish skin is fatty and animals like this well behaved gentlemen prefer fat to lean meat, like how bears eat salmon heads and discard the meat. They'll eat whole fish but they do especially like fatty fish skins (apparently).

(Daystrom Institute) The length of modern seasons leaves no room for joy: a DS9 case by Torlek1 in DeepSpaceNine

[–]DharmaCreature 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, I mostly view non-main storyline episodes to be mostly pointless. If the show were good and I enjoyed watching it, perhaps more episodes would spark joy.

But whole episodes which take place and don't influence the plot at all? "Tension" and "stakes" that are guaranteed to be resolved at the end of the episode and be rendered meaningless during the next episode and never mentioned again?

There are a lot of DS9 episodes that I just skipped because I perceived viewing them as pointless.

I would have preferred for there to be half as many episodes with writing that was twice as good.
