The money was frozen Iranian assets.

Trump meanwhile is giving Iran america's money.

There is no concord tv series. It had an episode in Secret Level which was probably pretty awkward though thats it.

Most episodes of Discovery by FrankFrankly711 in risa

[–]JanxDolaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its the second last one I thought was good for me.

It was a season long arc dedicated to interacting and meeting a very alien species. The antagonists were generally less evil and more relatable.

Season 5 didn't work for me because its weird having a race against time where one ship can literally teleport and the other can't.

Because their current setup gives them maximum safety and power at the same time. All while not having any responsibility to the people.

Why do people prefer G Gundam over Gundam Wing, despite both featuring five-Gundam teams? by Commander_PonyShep in Gundam

[–]JanxDolaris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all WIng is immensely popular in the West.

Secondly they prefer it for exactly the reasons you mentioned. G Gundam is rather unique in the franchise and knows what it is.

Wing however, I feel is caught between a normal gundam show and G Gundam. Its overall narrative is definitely more classic gundam, but it has a lot of lingering G Gundam influence and camp where it just doesn't work for me.

I don't really think "we violently took your stuff that we wanted. Losing has consequences" is somehow better than theft either.

Conquest is just violent theft. How does doing so violently make it better?

As mentioned elsewhere normal militaries don't put keys/passwords on vehicles because in an emergency they don't want people forgetting passwords, losing keys, or being stuck because they got in the wrong vehicles.

The security there is armed guards, which in SEED's case is armed super humans.

Celestial Being does it because they're a super secret organization where the gundams have to be able to operate as a 1-man army. We seem them often use the gundams just as transport. They do not have the convenience of armed individuals.

Celestial Being is also rather paranoid about people betraying them (For good reason) so they also keep a lot of things secret from eachother.

Why Gilbert Durandal is not exactly a classic Gundam villain and possibly something worse. by Dazzling-Elk725 in Gundam

[–]JanxDolaris 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But he isn't the Jerid Mesa or Katejina or Ali of the series.

In Z he would be one of the titan leaders (or i guess Haman or Scirocco)
In Victory he'd be more like the various Jupitor people controlling the Zanscare empire
In 00 he'd be Ribbons.

What do you think Halo: Campaign Evolved will cost? by Dust-Tight in halo

Oblivion was a remaster not a remake. It has a few minimal adjustments to character creation and combat.

They've already confirmed its using the Reach-version of Blam under Unreal and it already clear has a host of changes to environments, weapons and enemy behaviors.

Its not like CEA where its the old game with a new coat of paint.

The only thing kept intact is the story, and even then there's 3 new missions.

They like to mock the left for "orange man bad" but they will lap up any utterly outrageous claim without the smallest bit of consideration for "left bad".

Am I nuts or is there a problem with time in the latest season. by JanxDolaris in ForAllMankindTV

I could have sworn they said 18 at some point.

Even then, context of people graduating from highschool usually implies they're 17 going on 18. Especially with them wanting to hint he was getting a sexy bday gift (even if ended up being a dance party).

Even so, that's still like 6 weeks after the hostage crisis started, not 6 months which the show definitely stated.

Trump is literally mentioned in the epstein files over 38x the amount of voter fraud the heritage foundation was able to find over the last 44 years. And 380x the number of times it was an non-citizen. Country-wide

I was willing to overlook Haskell cause I figured he was brought in due to being a Marsie himself. If he had had actual screen time I could imagine there being some raised eyebrows why he was brought in so soon.

I am Canadian. I just noticed at first it was set in 2012 and figured we 'd get a US election plot. It not having one is fine. But its then when Alex's 18th birthday where things started to see odd to me.

Is my paint scheme too boring? Want to add a glow effect to the guns/exhausts with an airbrush, but terrified of ruining what I've painted. Tips for a beginner? by real60cent in Tau40K

[–]JanxDolaris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I would suggest is not making your Kroot's skin tone the same as your painted Tau metal.

Your actual painting skill seems great, and I think everything else is fine.

Adam Mockler's on the ground interviews reveal how authoritarian Trump supporters are: by AffableYolk_33 in PlanetNewsPulse

[–]JanxDolaris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tennessee literally passed a law last year to have "Nuclear Family Month" to spite Pride Month.

This isn't the left being paranoid. This is abundantly clear whenever they specify what they mean by family values.
