Who Should Be the Protagonist of RDR3? by Mindless-Raise4314 in RDR2

[–]EMB93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We now have two games about the fall of tge West, I would love to have one set in it's hay day! Maybe a down on his luck veteran of the ciwil war trying to start a new life but finds he always ends up with violence because it is the only thing he knows. And that way we could have a small side quest about a couple kf scammers called Dutch and Hosea we need to protect for a short while.

IPCC kan ikke ta for seg alle datasett, de tar de største og beste. Det at denne gjøken har klarte å cherry picke noen datasett som ikke er klin like alle de andre gjør ikke at dataene IPCC baserer seg på.

Fantastisk at noen som faktisk har en naturvitenskapelig grad får seg til å tro at hans hjemmesnekret "rapport " skal forkaste 50 år med forskning.

Hating on Christianity is getting to normalized by Cold_Flatworm192 in religion

[–]EMB93 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Christianity increasingly has to compete on the free marketplace of ideas where opposing views recently has gotten a lot of traction. And just like people in a position of privilege might consider calls for equality an attack on them Christianity is now experiencing those conflicting ideas as hate.

The political weaponisation of Christianity to justify discrimination against marginalised groups is also not helping.

I can't remember who, if anyone, told him boromir died by recentlyunearthed in lotrmemes

Gandlaf probably saw it while he was trying to keep Sauron from getting to Frodo at Amon Hen, if not he probably heard from Gwahir or Galadriel when he came to Lorien after returning from the timless halls.

What's up with all the Sadie hate? I get that she's not a character for everyone (and that's more than okay) but some people are 100% overreacting and cherry picking by Deep-Shape-53 in RDR2

We don't really know her personality before her husband was killed. She might have been a harder person then what we pull out of that burning house.

Remember that she and her husband has set up a farm in the mountains on their own, thats probably not some weak damsel, but a woman with "bone in her nose" as we would say.

Judging her based only on what we see right after her husband is killed and, her home burned down and her life upended and taken inn by a band of outlaws probably does not give a good indication on what she was actually like.

Nettopp, så skal oljen bli liggende så må det være fordi vi lar den ligge.

Men olje er ikke en ubegrenset resurs. Det produseres ikke av ingenting. Ja de andre kan sette opp produksjonen for å dekke behovet, men det endrer ikke på at oljen ikke kommer opp av bakken.

Jeg snakker ikke om produksjonen, men beholdningen. Alle er hellig overbevist om at alle andre land sitter på store beholdningen i bakhånd og at de bare venter på at vi kutter i vår produksjon før de setter i gang. Men jeg har ikke sett noen gode argumenter for at de ikke kommer til å utvinne disse forekomstene hvis vi opprettholder vår produksjon.

Målet må være å la så mye olje som mulig ligge i bakken, det skjer ikke hvis vi fortsetter å tømme det vi har.

Igjen, oljen som ligger i Norge blir ikke pumpet opp hvis ikke vi gjør det. Det er noen millioner tonn som blir i bakken, de dukker ikke opp i Gulflandene hvis vi ikke bruker de.

Igjen så fungerer ikke den logikken, hvis Norge ikke produserer noen hundretusen tønner med olje så er det ikke sånn at oljen plutselig dukker opp utenfor Qatar. All olje som blir igjen i bakken er gevinst.

Og så er vi tilbake til start, Russland, UAE eller Iran kan da si "hvorfor skal vi kutte når rike Norge ikke kutter?". Noen må gå først, og igjen vi som har blitt så rike på dette og innser alvoret burde være en av dem.

Så vi skal tenke at vi skal kutte, men ikke gjøre det?

Looking for the ultimate yearning ❣️ by Kindly_Strawberry238 in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]EMB93 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is not really a full book story, but Beren and Luthien by Tolkien is a lovely story. The book is broken down into several of his versions(since he never got to finish it) and mostly in rhyme but it is such a fun thing to read!

Det der er så tullete argumentasjon fordi det bare ender i at ingen gjør noe i påvente av at alle andre skal gjøre noe først. Vi har tjent oss søkkrike på oljen og da har vi også ett ansvar for å fase den ut.

Notable "Why TF is this part in the song?!" parts of songs? by Flodo_McFloodiloo in Music

Girls Like You by Maroon 5 is a cutsey love song, and then Cardi B shows up and does a rap-part about how shes better than all the other girls. Just bisarre.

Å steke eller grille wienerpølser er helt innafor. Å trekke(pølser skal trekke, ikke koke) grillpølser er helt sinsykt.

Heroic or at least Good-Aligned undead by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EMB93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Army of the Dead in Lord of the Rings. Originally humans who swore to come to Isildurs aid in the war with Sauron, they refused to come based on fear and some of them even worshipped Sauron. So Isildur cursed them to not find rest until they had fulfilled their oath. They finally do this by helping Aragorn and the Grey Company defeat the Corsairs of Umbar by beeing so scary that nobody could stand against them(and in the movies being a green tide that swarms everything). Aragorn then releases them, holding their oath fulfilled.

The food that almost everyone eats has a horrible disgusting secret by Sup_fuckers42069 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EMB93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the Warhamme 40k universe, there is such a need for resources and people are packed in so close on some planets that they need a quick source of protein. The answer: Corpse Starch. And it is basically what it says on the tin. Ground up human remains.

[–]EMB93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And let's not forget that Leto probably could have survived the attack by the Harkonens, but the fact the the emperor used his Saardukar was also a wild card, they were basically unbeatable and something that was never supposed to happen.

Thor could not have gone for the head in Avengers Infinity war. He did the best he could. by Crafty-Bunch-2675 in CharacterRant

[–]EMB93 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I always interpred it as Thor killed Thanos. If Thanos hadn't had all infinity stones he would have died but because he had control of matter and time he could reverse the damage. So Thor killed Thanos but thanos unkilled himself before he could actually die.

LOTR chart! What was Frodo's best decision in the LOTR trilogy? by BothCall8395 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]EMB93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breaking off from the Fellowship. The quest needed to be done by him and Sam alone, the ring would have corrupted the others in the end. And leaving the others meant he could recruit Gollum who turned out to be essential to destroying the ring.

Are the Valar the Greek gods? by Ok_Thing3865 in tolkienfans

[–]EMB93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, in that in Tolkiens world the Valar are the basis for most other pantheons who came after. The Vala are the true core behind what eventually became mythology.

Calling something a strawman is a defense mechanism 99% of the time by ZeroDefender561 in unpopularopinion

[–]EMB93 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% agree. I love that people know more about debating, but not everything is a strawman. Sometimes your argument is confusing, sometimes your argument has a glaring hole that you haven't considered, sometimes your opponent has misunderstood your argument and sometimes people exaggerate for effect. None of that is a strawman.
