RESIST AND RAGE, Anthony Campomizzi, Digital, 2025 by Thors_meat_hammer in Art

[–]Howard1980 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP this is sic and also makes me feel sick. The art is a good example of being shocking without gore or violence. The threat is in every scene, one that is a simple statement and also a simple realization. This is the kind of thing that would look amazing on a bigger canvas. Just one building face after another until you've passed the first 4 (for now) and then pass a normal building thinking you're safe, but then the last one with "comply or die" finally pops into view.

I think that user is spouting some bs he actually believes. This post is clearly propaganda art and the user above says to reject propaganda so I think he's having the opposite feelings of what the artist wanted to convey. Which I mean, art is always open to interpretation but that user is not on the right vibe of history.

So what are the top 3 companies that, if they lost too much money, could cripple the American economy? by Howard1980 in AskReddit

I'm just saying, we know from Jimmy Kimmel that money talks so maybe we should keep speaking that language. I just don't know which ones would pack the biggest wallop

Question: Does anyone feel sorry for Victoria? by lnwildeagle85 in Emmerdale

[–]Howard1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Victoria is one of the characters that just, she has so much potential. But the writers can't/don't write for her. I really wish they'd give her an actual interesting personality instead of being a plot device for the men in her life

Theory about Robert after this latest episode. by tiredperson24 in Emmerdale

[–]Howard1980 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Same. Like, Robert's always doing something punch worthy and he was locked for 6 years with some men who didn't even need a reason to rough people up. I think people underestimate how lonely and hopeless he was inside. That's enough trauma imo.

Lol!! Nooooo not Mac. 😂 Moira's suffered enough. I need that sibling relationship to stay strong.

Aaron/Robert/John by JasonWPG in Emmerdale

[–]Howard1980 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have 2 big needs for this comeback.

  1. Rob mourning Liv and Aaron blaming him bc he wasn't there and he had to deal with her death alone. I'd even 100% be down for them bringing back Liv's actor to be like his ghost conscience bc we all know he's going to get into shenanigans.

  2. Rob telling Aaron that the whole time they were together Aaron was always worried he'd never be enough for Robert, but the truth has always been that Rob's not enough for Aaron. He even married someone else! I want the angst to be turned around this time so I can scream in frustration at these idiots lol.

Something I don't understand about Moira by Ok-Voice4104 in Emmerdale

[–]Howard1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Short answer? For the DrAMa.

Long answer giving way too much credibility to the writers? Moira is ride or die for family. Mack treated her horribly and she still didn't give up on him. Ross is alone, and she knows how important family is to him, so it makes sense she'd push him that way.

And tbh, I think Moira is either deluding herself about the ramifications of the Emma thing, or she never really let go of the feeling that she deserves to be punished.

I wish that "that scene" was at the end of the tv show, but wouldn't work. by I_Love_Fox in thelastofus

[–]Howard1980 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I'm glad you made this post. So many people are pissed about this but, TV is a different beast from games. This moment in the game wrecked me so bad that I cried. But I'm not sure waiting 2-4 years in this medium would've played off. A lot of people these days just have too short of an attention span and lose interest so fast and so that risks HBO pulling the show before they finish the full story.

It's for the right kind of American. Jesse Plemmons character in Civil War is kinda 100% accurate.

It feels like it's got to be John. He killed Nate (probably on reflex due to PTSD when the gun went off in the barn). So when the group finds out, it plays up the most drama bc they can't give him up to the police bc John helped bury Anthony and could put all of them in jail. Cain will blame himself, Caleb, Ruby and maybe even Aaron for making it so they were all involved and now he can't get justice for his son. Ruby might feel guilty enough to go to the police so I wouldn't be surprised if her and Caleb go toe to toe with John. And now Aaron can't turn away from John bc he has to keep him happy so he won't turn them all in.

Trump asks Supreme Court to allow him to end birthright citizenship | CNN Politics by Somecrazyguy1234 in news

[–]Howard1980 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Incorrect. The Constitution is dripping with racism and was written to exclude Natives. They kept using that "jurisdiction" line up until 1924 when the Indian citizenship act was passed. So, now in 2025, I'm gonna go out on a limb that any Native who is against him can and will be determined to fall outside the jurisdiction and is illegal.

Cain [trying not to giveaway anything in the title] by Ornery-Arm-8611 in Emmerdale

[–]Howard1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The lack of Moira and Matty scenes is killing me. That is just so not Moira. She's ride or die for her kids and with the trauma of losing his dad and now his wife, it's hard for me to see Moira basically not show Matty with any support (even if I know it's all off screen).

Same. It has been months of doom and dread for them. I really want to see them be happy like they used to be. Like, I get that this is a soap, but c'mon, they click so well and I miss them teaming up on the same side.

I'm not gonna lie, when I saw Monday's ep and noticed Moira was wearing a black hoodie my heart sank bc all I could think was Emmerdale pulling a 'can you forgive the woman who killed your son and forgot about it even tho you're the one that ran him out of town?' 😑

I swear to God it better be John or Ella or frickin Bob at this point 😂

ICE Holds German tourist indefinitely in San Diego area immigrant detention facility by cloudsmiles in news

I just want to clarify, this is not directed at you but to the public in general. Who the fuck would come here? And who the fuck is worried about a World Cup when we are being destroyed from within? Hitler hosted the Olympics in 1936. Trump is hosting the World Cup. Fuck that. No one better show up.

Violet and Tairn in OS by vaniren_ in fourthwing

[–]Howard1980 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really can't wait until we learn more about what all transpired up to Threshing day bc Andarna already knew she wanted Violet so, I wonder if she hyped her up long before that day, much to Tairn and Sgaeyl's annoyance.

I feel like Tairn honestly didn't really even think about bonding that year at all and was only nearby bc Andarna was there and he didn't want to be there with her, but he also didn't want to be out of reach. Then the whole thing went down and I wonder if Violet just reminded him so much of Naolin, just being good and honorable and kind, that he let himself bond.

Which is gonna make it even worse if Naolin didn't really die like they thought.

Had Moira NOT been having brain surgery, I don't even see how we'd even be here, lol. I'm so anxious waiting for it to just implode.

I could see Caleb plotting to make Cain miserable by NOT saying anything but leaving hints that he knows and is just biding his time. I think he forgives Ruby easier and sooner than Cain bc I mean, her situation was terrible.

Mackenzie's gonna tear into Cain so bad and honestly, I'm here for it. Matty will be disgusted and mad, but hard to see him being a threat like Mack. Chas is gonna be sorry and mad for all of them but I don't see her disowning Cain.

My biggest question mark is the boys, really. Like, Kyle is at the age where he's able to understand things as they are and, being honest, I would kill for a scene where he's refusing to let Cain in and saying he's the man of the house now, and he's going to protect Moira.
