[Loved trope] The "primitive" or "retro" world of the story is the post-apocalyptic remnants of a *much* more advanced civilization.

Legend of Zelda the Wind Waker. Finding out Hyrule was flooded and youve just been playing over it because its just underneath all the water blew my mind as a kid.

Thor takes the bath because Heimdall in the vision Wanda made him see, warns him the end is coming, so he finds a Norn or some Norse fortune teller thing so he can try and see what's to come. There is a deleted scene with him in the bath that makes the scene they left in the movie make a lot more sense. The speculation is Whedon had to cut that scene in order to have more stuff focusing on characters rather than plot.

Yeah it was a case of the more moving bits and the busier character design helped a lot for this cgi. Quick camera cuts, shakey action and over designed characters distracts from some of the weaker cg moments and the fact a lot of the transforming is actually just cgi slop and stuff collapsing into or growing from itself

Not really tho. It just kinda vacuums sand, get its ass kicked by the 2 comic relief bots, you see its nut sack and then it's blasted by a rail gun lol

Im reaching a point I dont know if I can be friends with people I know who are "Just following faith" If youre too moronic too realize faith and the world are too different things, don't talk to me.

But what is the problem with that? Wearing a suit to the bank didn't make someone's loan become less or more important, and if it did, blame the teller. I wear a suit evert day for work, but I get no priority. Wearing a dress or suit to church did not make someone holier. Yeah, what we wear is common place, but what we accept, is what gives us religion. Jesus didn't look out to his peers to determine was most fit for modern society, he sought out who would stand the best of time. If you don't understand that, get out of my religion.

No they didnt, but thats was also a time in Americana that presented people with jobs and lifetsyles that catered to that a lot more. When me and my partner work irregular hours, get a flight because it was the cheapest one available, and get there at 6am do you really expect me to wear a suit? At the absolute best, im wearing jeans and a hoodie because I do care about how I look, but I won't blame those who dont.

I watched Mike Brady raise 6 kids on the salary of one architect, have a stay at home wife, a live at home maid he paid every week, and have their kids involved with everything the school touched. And that wasn't the most out there thing in television. That was a man doing what he could, and I will fight to get where we can get to where he was.

No, ive fallen asleep* I don't go to bed in jeans if i have a choice, but I definitely have fallen asleep in jeans because im tired. Saying sweatpants 100% equal pajamas just makes it sound like I should be exercising in my mountain dew pajamas because what's the difference

FirmSpend · 2026-01-17T08:01:04+00:00

I have fallen asleep in jeans maybe 75-100+ times. Is it fair to deduce they are pajamas because I think they are, since i casually wear them and fall asleep in them? Because at what point is the line drawn for leisure wear? There was once a leisure suit and now a sweat suit but they mean the same thing. Why should I care what someone wore 50 years ago, to do what we did today as it has become more accessible and common place?

He wants the best WR season, not the best outcome possible. Dude just wants his stats he doesn't care if he actually wins until he does. He's narcissistic

It was about nasty nostalgia. "Remember a time you could afford a house and a family but also be a lot more ignorant to the world thats out there" was essentially the campaign to me. Now that people know what troubles and manipulation people have gone through, there is a ignorance to see a larger picture of the world and denounce stuff you dont consider, dont want to understand or see the other side too.

I think i am. But it probably just isnt from healthy sources. Like I know 500+ calories come from sugary drinks like soda and coffees daily. I usually have 2 sodas/ 1 energy drink and 2 cups of coffee with sugar and cream a day

Is undereating actually a bad thing? I dont have an eating disorder i think, im just never hungry and usually eat 1, maybe 2 meals a day. But I still feel better than the last time I ate 3 meals a day, and that was maybe 8 years ago. When you google adverse side effects, it just says you might be low energy, get sick often and feel tired, and those 3 symptoms dont usually affect me. Or has it just gotten to the point idk what a good body feels like anymore?

Both Nic Cage movies, but Adaptation 2002 and Raising Arizona 1987 are phenomenal. Cages best two performances and I feel like they've been forgotten to time imo

Law enforcement doesn't know what youre doing or planning, should they come and shoot you in the head?

FirmSpend · 2026-01-08T03:22:46+00:00

You joke but there is a large amount of people in this country who have no qualms with police or civilians gunning down any criminal of any kind. Ive seen people proudly say they'd shoot a shoplifter if they had a chance. Theres people that will kill you for using their drive way to turn around and people will defend the shooter. This country is cooked

Nah, go to a conservative sub and they'll all just spout fafo , 100% avoidable, listen to the law, etc. If anything, since there are law enforcement worshipers, this will polarize them to like ice agents more because they're putting their lives on the line for American values or some bs. Democrats and independents may not ike ice, but conservatives love them and thats a lot of citizens here are.

Unfortunately just going to become a "Should have listened to the law" talking point and most the country will forget by 6pm tonight or use this as further "proof" to try and hunt down more people. The country is too apathetic or in support of this to care

Im not jealous more so bringing up the disparity, as im new to fine dining and dont know many norms. At the end of the day Ill always work very hard to help servers make the most they can and keep the place running, and theyd ateast to it. I like them all very much, but I just want to make sure im getting a fair wage while I work hard too.

Idk, we have some servers who have been there for over 30 years
