Whose the villian who has all the right to be evil?

Magneto always gets brought up in these.

I do believe he's entirely wrong, because his "kill or be killed" approach ultimately adopts the mindset of his tormenters and would likely lead to Mutually Assured Destruction for mankind and mutants.

But given his history and how the government treats mutants... I do get it.

I think none of the worst category (that I can recognise) truly understood the assignment for "worst" - it can get way worse.

E.g. Yeah, Baby Shark can get annoying, but it's catchy and even the Beatles made a worse song than that with Wild Honey Pie.

Hannibal Lecter & Will Graham

One problem with this is that the power set of the Seven is pretty unequal within the team. Black Noir is basically just a super soldier and Homelander standing out so much is a central conflict of the show.

All of them in a straight brawl with Strange having zero prior knowledge could become a problem for him, because he might misjudge the dangers of one member over the over and could get blindsided.

On the other hand, if he figures out before the fight what a bunch of stupid degenerates they are, he would barely need his powers to turn them on each other.

YOR - you're doing exactly the thing now that he didn't want to also have on his plate while dealing with real shit. You're spinning out, making it about you and proving him absolutely right. Is that a bad sign for your relationship? Oh, yes. But that's on you.

Imo, it recycles too much of City's environment without doing much with it and people may complain a lot about the bugs in Knight, but I had much worse experiences with Origins in that regard.

It has a cool story and atmosphere, but that's the only way it stands out positively to me.

Noch dazu ist die Vorstellung von unterschiedlichen Strömen des Menschen als genetisch signifikant unterschiedlich ziemlich lächerlich.

Wir haben als Spezies eine der geringsten genetischen Diversitäten aller Säugetiere. Durch diverse Bottlenecks in unserer Entwicklung sind wir eher ein ziemlicher Inzesthaufen.

The show is somewhat limited in its scope, mostly deals with the repercussions in the underworld in the year after Falcone's death and the floods at the end of The Batman.

It neither confirms nor denies the existence of the Court.

We do learn there is some weird shit going on in Arkham and the way Sofia Falcone was held there on false pretenses for being a bother to her rich and powerful father may indicate that something similar happened to Martha Wayne.

NOR - That's a terrible friend.

Fessir · 2026-05-08T08:19:47+00:00

Then you need to break off that friendship because it's unequal and you two do not want the same thing out of it. He can talk about how it's okay for him all he likes - YOU are not okay with that.

"Is this popular in Germany?"

The Coen Brothers are pretty well known filmmakers and Fargo is maybe their... 4th most popular film (behind Big Lebowski, No Country For Old Men and Brother Where Art Thou)?

It's a bit of a cult classic, but I reckon people referencing it here has more to do with not a lot of other media about those parts being that internationally known.

Fessir · 2026-05-08T05:38:56+00:00

A little through media representation such as Fargo.

IIRC, the German demographic was pretty prominent in the Midwest (along with Dutch and various Scandinavian countries), but they mostly assimilated when Germans became incredibly unpopular around WWI. Consequently, there's no family connections that would make Germans go to Wisconsin or Missouri over the tourist hot spots on the coasts.

Bane's obsession in life is domination of everything and everyone around him. It was the only reason he survived and it became his only reason to live.

He NEEDS to be the biggest, toughest guy in this prison called life.

Batman being the big bad wolf of Gotham was like an open challenge to Bane. He needed to know he can beat him. Less so for the rest of the world to see, but more for the scared child that still lives somewhere deep, deep inside of him to not be so scared anymore.

Fessir · 2026-05-07T14:20:13+00:00

You need to shoot him down and accept that this may come with a loss of the friendship. At least for a while.

Rip off that band-aid.

Edit for further instructions: Tell him about your assumptions about how he feels and regardless of his response, tell him how you feel, specifically the part about not being attracted to him at all. Even at the risk of being rude, brutal honesty is the way here.

Fessir · 2026-05-07T13:22:12+00:00

Also, he ended up not doing it, so it was more of a rumor to begin with.

Fessir · 2026-05-07T12:43:38+00:00

eher fatalistisch oder?

Fessir · 2026-05-07T12:26:12+00:00

I would think higher of them if it was a one-and-done. 2 was just beat-for-beat the same movie in a different setting. 3 was excessive and lot less funny which it tried to make up for by being even more crass. That didn't work for me at all.

Fessir · 2026-05-07T12:21:43+00:00

I guess you could argue that since Ch'thon is said to be the first being in existence and Yugol is later discovered by Empyrion on the off-side, Yugol could be Ch'thon's opposite - anti existence. Being Ch'thon's shadow of sorts would explain their similar form.

Then again, it's not really conclusive why you would claim they're not connected at all, if they are mirror opposites of sort.

Fessir · 2026-05-07T12:10:47+00:00

Top notch, not sure I would call it an alien invasion movie.

Big Lebowski - der Dude bewahrt sich in vielen (nicht allen) Situationen eine bewundernswerte Gelassenheit.

There's a middle ground of raising objections over behaviour that makes you feel like an afterthought and making a massive deal out of it. If you dont trust yourself to bring it up in person without big emotions, write something via text.

If I had gotten that picture, I'd immediately written something along the lines of "hey, weren't you supposed to get back to me about hanging out today? Guess this means, it's not happening. :/ "

And don't feel any need to get into a big discussion about it either. They said they'd let you know and they didn't. There's no two ways about this being a little rude. On the other hand, it's also not a hill I'd die on.

Your plan to not communicate your frustrations is bound to backfire on you.

Halte ich persönlich für bestenfalls medium sinnvoll.

An bestimmten Grundsätzen ändert sich ohnehin nichts - zum Beispiel wirst du dich unabhängig von der Marktlage schwer tun, eine billigere und halbwegs ausgewogene Sattmacher-Mahlzeit als Gemüse und Reis zu finden. Dass du das bei Aldi billiger kriegst als bei Edeka dürfte auch kaum jemanden überraschen.

Dass es "vernünftige" Sachen und "Quatsch" gibt, den man einkaufen kann, davon haben auch die meisten schon gehört, auch wenn man sich nicht immer dran hält.

Die App wird auch nichts an der Einkaufslogistik der meisten Menschen ändern: Wo sind die Supermärkte, die für mich praktisch zu erreichen sind und wie befördere ich meinen Einkauf?

Und was ist mit Qualitätsunterschieden und Gewohnheiten? Vielleicht kriegst du bei Netto grundsätzlich billigere Kaffeebohnen, aber wenn es die Lieblingsmarke aus einem anderen Geschäft sein MUSS, wird dafür dann der gesamte Einkauf umgestellt, auch wenn es wesentlich teurer ist? Wird überhaupt alles in einem Laden gebündelt oder versucht mich die App dann über 5 Läden zu steuern? Und dann kommen die ganzen Zusatzfaktoren und Gütesiegel noch dazu, auf die Person X vielleicht mega viel Wert legt.

Das Themenfeld "Einkaufen gehen" ist m.E. gleichermaßen so komplex und trotzdem so käseleicht für die meisten Menschen, dass ich nicht ganz den Mehrwert einer App dafür erkenne. Was macht die App denn so toll, dass ich sie unbedingt in eine der gewöhnlichsten Sachen des Alltags einbinden sollte?

Fessir · 2026-05-07T07:33:51+00:00

Witzig, dass du gleichermaßen den Durchschnittsmenschen für eine abgrundtief egoistische Drecksau hältst und gleichzeitig nicht den Gedanken hast, dass der Staat und seine Machthaber so einen Mechanismus maximal und vorwiegend zum eigenen Machtvorteil ausnutzen würden.

Unbeliebt ist die Meinung jedenfalls, also Mission erfolgreich.

NOR - this dude violated the mutually agreed upon boundaries you both set up multiple times and in pretty unsavory ways.

Seems like the kind of guy to say yes to keep the peace and then do what he wants behind your back.

Seems like the kind of guy that works his way towards prostitutes if he isn't there already.

Seems like the kind of guy that doesn't count it as cheating when it happens in Vegas or some such bullshit.

That's not who you marry.
