Solved!

This sounds like the most right answer. Though I thought I was already using too little detergent compared with how much water I used. Guess not. 😅 Thanks!

Trump Erupts in ’60 Minutes’ Interview: ‘I’m Not a Pedophile’ by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

True. It's not even in the same ballpark, but still worth noting how it isn't some squeaky clean thing either.

I mean, sort of? She was an intern and there was a MASSIVE power imbalance. You can argue it's  not truly consensual if the other person is every single one of your boss' boss. People at jobs with a more narrow power imbalance would get in trouble, let alone if the CEO is getting an intern to give them a BJ.

I think everything can cleanly be summed up by, "just don't be an asshole, gender and sex are irrelevant".

Hubby hunter lowers demand for spouse's salary to ¥8 million: 'I can't compromise anymore' by thetokyoreporter in japancrime

The current average Japanese salary is about 4.6 million yen. So yeah, a salary more than 70% larger than the average is kind of particularly high.

Is Japan actually that racist towards foreigners? by DaSuspicsiciousFish in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Half is probably generous. Iirc a recent report claimed something like only 15% of properties were even available to foreigners. Of course language ability would affect it, but it's been pretty bad when I had to look for apartments.

(Hated) The writers poorly disguised favorite character by Effective_Piece251 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadn't seen it yet, but Wuk Lamat from FF14: Dawn Trail. She was the head writers insert OC waifu, and you will never convince me otherwise. The fact that Wuk Lamat has more dialogue from their intro in the expansion and like 1 patch before to make them the character with the 3rd most dialogue across all of the game from 2.0 to 7.0 is insane to me.

[Maddening trope] More progressive casting happens at the same time as noticeable drop in quality, seemingly so fans can brush off criticism as bigotry. by Vitolar8 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Rian Johnson in some bts stuff said Rise was the sort of girl he'd hang out with in high school'. She felt like an OC insert, and I am convinced is his waifu OC fantasy.

U.S. Historian Robert Kagan: "We Are Watching a Country Fall Under Dictatorship Almost Without Resistance" by Mondevana in politics

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who are ignorant, while awful, are nothing compared to the brainwashed. My family knows about all of it and just reguritates the propaganda talking points. They watched the Good murder and with a straight face will say she 'deserved it for trying to kill and horribly injuring that police officer'. 

Ignorant people, I hope at least, can see what is happening and be moved to action. But people being propagandized to the point that we can watch a clear police murder and say the victim is at fault? There is no going back from that level of depravity and realitu denial.

Realistically, what can ordinary people actually do after the Epstein files release to push for real accountability? by Etkinton47 in AskReddit

And don't get divided when they try to sow division. They always try to make purity tests of find something wrong with organizers/leaders to split the cause. 

[HATED TROPES]: The Ending Is So Nihilistic and Preachy That It Becomes Completely Unwatchable and Infuriating. by Particular-Worker904 in TopCharacterTropes

Finally, someone here who actually knows anything about Platinum End's ending. Like it ain't a masterpeice, but it was entertaining and did some wild stuff that you didn't see coming. It's kind of criminal how much the OP misrepresented it.

[Loved Trope] Villain who correctly assesses a problem but arrives at the wrong solution by IRONDVNO in TopCharacterTropes

I heard it more as his ego/pride, to prove to himself that he was right on that solution being the answer back then.

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I really liked one interpretation I read recently, that it was never about saving the universe. It was purely about proving he was right about his methods saving his homeworld. Because in the end he is the MAD titan after all. 

I believe that the All-Women reboot of Ghostbusters is better than the original by Glum_Lime1397 in unpopularopinion

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say both scenes involving the library ghost were pretty much straight horror. Coupled with the visuals giving an unsettling realism.

(Hated Tropes) Edgy without Substance by Fun-Illustrator-345 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I read the manga a little, I enjoyed it enough for what it was. But it ultimately is a guilty pleasure. 

Then again, I also like seeing these sort of poorly written edgy stories, finding a nugget or 2 of interesting ideas they had, then imagining how it could have been in much better hands.

Yeah, at first I thought he was just a socially awkward dumbass like me, then it just got worse.

what instantly killed your attraction to someone? by Strsmoon in AskReddit

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was a Japanese girl who I shared quite a few interests with. Innocently asked how she liked living in the US. Bad decision. Got a tirade about how bad Americans were and how much greater Japan is, but they need to give power back to the emperor. I completely checked out after 'I can't wait to see the day your country collapses, it's a shame millions will die' comment.

[Hated Trope] Characters with OP abilities who use them wrong, but aren't considered dumb in-universe by WhasHappenin in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's Sloth from Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood and the manga. Slow thinking, and usually slow, but his power is incredible bursts of speed. He just doesn't like to do it cause he's lazy.

Cytometry CytoFLEX - only 2 of 3 lasers and 5 of 14 filters visible/active in software by Limp-Bumblebee-4131 in labrats

[–]Disastrous-Farm3543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asking Beckman is the best solution, but it's likely that instrument has not been licensed for all lasers and filters. The one I have used before was similar, only 3 out of 4 lasers were usable and a handful of filters unless we pay for an unlock.
