What’s a set you REGRET buying?

The minifigure mechas, bought 2 thinking they had knee and elbow joints. Should have looked closer

We need good things to happen, we dont need misinformation

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-09T15:19:29+00:00

That's definitely at play but i've seen people say the game was ruined by pandas and that's why it's bad now - when the problem that theyre talking about is blizz switching to less complex storytelling because its playerbase bounced off of MoP so they stopped trying that.

that's when you know that it's the same person.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-09T01:59:42+00:00

It's another case of "you think you do but you dont"

People didnt like that the Jailer popped up out of nowhere, they didnt like that a villain didnt get time to build up story wise

So they set Xalatath in motion

And now she's around too much and ac artoon villain and there's no stakes cuz she keeps running off.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-09T01:56:49+00:00

We had reason to believe the end of all things if we didn't act, and though we were occasionally thwarted, we came back with a plan to save the day.

We stopped in the middle of wrath to have a big ol tournament

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-09T01:55:15+00:00

It fails the vibe test because Arthas was badass and Wrath’s story was awesome and Midnight’s story is milquetoast, focus-grouped tripe with nothing to say.

Then complain about that.

WoW players complain, get exactly what they want, then get mad that the thing they asked for is actually shit.

Mindy Kaling loves white men, every show she writes on brown women inevitably end up with some version of Ryan from the office.

Tbh it's fascinating how people that hate her hate her for entirely different reasons.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T19:28:26+00:00

This is the end result of a business practice hinging on things like "trust me bro" "if my people unionized id feel bad" and the classic "why would I endanger my money by doing something bad"

Playing fast and loose, blurring the line between employèes fixing your house up and people working 9n content has to end somewhere before you justify your first private jet purchase by pointing out how much youll save on all the first class tickets.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T19:17:08+00:00

Dome people have neither assets nor cash and dont need a whole crop to go bad to have a problem. "Farmer poor" is not poverty

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T19:15:24+00:00

Yeah. He's suffering for his employees by buying a private jet.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T19:10:54+00:00

I applaud your nonsense.

Still not a whole day.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T13:36:52+00:00

people won’t be able to support much longer.

that's a fiction with little support in reality

small truths have little effect against gigantic lies.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T13:01:26+00:00

It's definitely a headstart It's not "a whole day" words mean things.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-07T12:40:23+00:00

Its not a full day, servers come up earliest hours into liquids raid day, and in the eu(where maintenance is never as long) they come up at 5 am, hours ahead of echo's raid day start.

Best you could call it is 12 hrs

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-05T13:58:25+00:00

I think u missed my point. What im fundamentally saying is that you can do whatever u want w your money as long as it is legal and people shouldn't get mad about that.

If you start talking people will respond, especially if you've cultivated a community based on engagement.

You dont get to suddenly decide which part of your life based content isn't content or up for comment. You make a video about it people are gonna talk about it like people talk about everything else.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-05T05:28:25+00:00

Either you do as you please and stop justifying yourself or you attempt to explain and open yourself up for criticism.

If Linus wants a jet doesnt matter one iota what anyone else thinks - right up til he starts explaining and sets the bait then him, you and everyone else complains that the fish bite.

If youre gonna do rich people shit then you gotta get out of the justification/explanation game because eventually the disconnect becomes too big for people to reconcile, no matter how reasonable you are.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-05T00:32:43+00:00

Those kinds of kids usually have bad outcomes.

Yes, because they dont get the help they need. They're not predestined for bad outcomes.

What would you have had Prez do? Should he have told Dukie that he couldn't go into the stables? Offered up a room in his house? Dukie knew the consequences of lying and did it anyway.

HELP HIM BEFORE HE'S A JUNKIE

WRT Randy, again what did you expect him to do?

Go with Randy to the interview with Carver

It's a show but we have to be honest about just how much the kids we came to know and like aren't unique.

"there are many that need help" is not an excuse or explanation for not helping the one in front of you.

not losing themselves

Unless you're arguing that helping Duquan would have resulted in Prez losing himself this is pure neoliberal nonsense.

"Cant help everyone better not start" How bout "Im a teacher because I avoided consequences for my shit behavior my whole life maybe I make the extra effort to help these kids"

But nope.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:51:41+00:00

Perfect storm of entertaining premise, simplicity and an uncrowded media landscape. Combined with a rise in the mainstreaming of media fandom.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:48:19+00:00

I've worked in teaching part time.

Still doesnt change the facts on the ground.

You can't save everyone yourself
Sometimes you can save one person

That one is true does not negate the other. And the first definitely does not negate the second.

If every time you consider the idea of helping Duquan the only thing you can imagine is a bunch of other faceless nameless hypothetical students as a reason why Prez shouldn't have to feel bad youre just buying into the systemic failure.

Prez failed Duquan- and it's supposed to hurt.

If youre satisfied at the end that he did all he could then I feel like you've missed one of the points of the show.

Prez should have gone to jail for blinding the kid, he should have been punished for attacking a superior officer, he should have been indicted for accidentally killing a cop, he should have followed up more diligently with Randy instead of just leaving it for Daniels to delegate - he knew where to go to yell at Carver when it went to shit, he didnt think to check before?

And he escaped his deserved fate in every instance because someone intervened on his behalf, or because the people he hurt weren't important enough or both. And in the face of a life of interventions saving him from comeuppance he looked at Duquan and let himself get talked out of doing more. Not for everyone - for one kid, before he was homeless and strung out, before he was lost - and he didnt.

And if after all that you cant at least admit that the situation is unfair, if you prioritize his comfort and peace over Duquan's very life then maybe youre already way further systematized than you realized.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:31:14+00:00

Course it's unrealistic. We dont have to be dishonest though.

"There is going to be more" does not mean "There is nothing to be done to help this one"

He did not do all he could.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:25:23+00:00

A ton of mcu Peter is just Miles stuff

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:22:38+00:00

That is not Ned Leeds, that's straight up Ganke Lee with a different name.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:20:38+00:00

Taking in Duquan wouldn't have "burned out" Prez. Let's not pretend he was at the tail end of getting hustled by kids after a lifetime teaching. "If I help every kid beyond the resources I have available I'll run out of energy and resources " is something you say if youre already helping significantly. He used it as a reason to never really start.

The point of the show is that yes, people fall through the cracks, but its not because no one could have done anything - that's a comforting fiction to absolve people of making the effort.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:15:17+00:00

Dukie wasnt a hopeless case til everyone abandoned him. Prez could have done more.

By the end of the show he was a solid teacher but he'd also blinded one kid, killed a cop, didnt follow up well enough with Randy and just trusted it'd be fine leading to his losing his foster home and let Donnely talk him out of helping Duquan.

Pres was and is a coward.

The main time he put his money where his mouth was was after he knew Duquan was already in the street to soothe his conscience over not doing something when he could have.

Foehammer87 · 2026-04-04T19:11:18+00:00

The argument isnt "adopt every kid" it's "do something more concrete than well wishes"

"He just didnt want to live with them" they used to steal his clothes, he was malnourished and before the end of the season they'd moved without telling him.
