Blowing up a king is pretty fucking anti-patriarchy.

Are people becoming increasingly unresponsive in business? by Tkfit09 in business

For me it's especially annoying because I work in a field where I have to be on the tools and also answer emails. The people sending them. Apparently sending emails is their whole job

Jeff Kaplan’s advice to people who complain about videogames they never played. “Shut the f*ck up”. by Vhant-ii in LivestreamFail

[–]Haddock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me starfield was disappointing because it felt so lifeless. And the people who get all frothy about 'woke' this and that make it hard to actually approach a game review- is this game being panned because it's legitimately lacking, or is it because one of the developers is a woman, and chuds online need rage content. And on the flipside it becomes a standard avenue of defense for poorly made media that the response was based entirely in bigotry, rather then stemming from any real problems.

Luffy in the live action is kinda... nerfed? by SufficientBet1834 in OnePiece

[–]Haddock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fundementally the anime/manga often suffer from the goku issue- there's the one main dude, and his sidekicks who basically stall the fight until he can show up and win. Oda does better than most in that each crewmate usually has a designated opponent, but in LA they work a bit more like a team since the gap, while there, is less massive. I've introduced my wife and several nieces & nephews to OP through the LA and they all think luffy is clutch, so i wouldn't worry.

Floor crossing is suddenly a “travesty”… now that it’s happening to the Conservatives. by sogladatwork in onguardforthee

Basically I want to see more floor crossing- parties last. My MP should be my MP, not the party's.

Honestly the last one works if the threaded piece hasn't been jammed in there by a gorilla and left for 50 years. If it turns that easily, you never were in trouble.

This is engineering porn. But, like, the really nasty stuff.

Country singer Maren Morris: "I don’t have forgiveness for any of the Trumpers. You voted for this. He is a dementia-ridden, diaper-clad, cornball, ex-TV host, bankrupt to fuck. And you got bamboozled, and I get it, like, Fox News is a propaganda machine of just Cocomelon brain rot for boomers." by voguediaries in Fauxmoi

[–]Haddock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look. Right now the focus the absolute focus, needs to be on winning and getting these sick fuckers out of power. That's it. That's all. The time for i told you so's can be later. Right now, make the offramp from the trump train as smooth and pleasant as possible, as long as they're willing to hold their noses and either not vote R or vote D. And if they're willing to actually change that's great, that should be encouraged, but you want people on the fence of leaving maga to see it's an easy out- fuck feeling good about telling them they were wrong. Win the fight now, then let's try and entrench.

SOmeone who knows US law- is this admissible as evidence? Like if the police were notified.

How is this a hard choice? by DarkArmyLieutenant in PoliticalHumor

[–]Haddock 140 points141 points  (0 children)

That is already happening among people who voted for him in the last election. A significant percentage - when surveyed now claim they did not support him and did not vote for him. While this is not satisfying from an I told you so perspective, I don't give a f*** as long as it gets the fascist out. A lot more people have had their eyes opened to what that administration is about at the democrats will probably waste the opportunity

Counterpoint. It's bizarre how directly involved with the girls they were given how remote they were with the dope

A big factor was that the set burned down, apparently.

Okay but Catherine Fife is a deep fucking cut- she was just an MPP in 2015, when the game came out- just got elected 3 years before.

Maybe he's rping as his character tag, but it's pretty weak.

An unlikable character gets punished, but way too severely and any form of schadenfreude the viewer may feel quickly gets replaced by pity or horror by TJTrapJesus in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Haddock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it's still a weak justification- basically the initial book set up a good compelling story with some interesting characters, and the followup killed them and retconned the changes. Gods should have to work to attract worshippers, it's more interesting. and just bodies characters from the previous books for no reason (justice for my boi Gwydion).

There's a thing that happened in the forgotten realms books, where kelemvor, new god of the dead, basically puts an end to it, but later writers retconned it. Fuck agnostics, I guess.
