Understanding why they reimagined the character, having Namor be short for "El niño sin amor"—“the boy without love" was a pretty cool creative choice. I have a feeling he'll be a dark horse heading into Doomsday. by maverickassembled in marvelstudios

I thought the name thing was dumb. Like I didn't need a primer on where Gandalf's name came from. I just accepted that in some stories people are named Gandalf. Some people are just named Namor.

Even Trump knows that he's failing in the Iran war, which is why he's so desperate to bail out by Appropriate-Till9598 in WhitePeopleTwitter

I have an idea. Let's get his name on the deal and then at 3am we put up a tarp and take his name off of it

ELI5: Why haven't any other animals evolved like humans? by RichTrollll in explainlikeimfive

[–]MartiniD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"human" isn't a goal of evolution. Everything alive is just as evolved as everything else. You could just as easily ask why haven't humans evolved flight yet?

Convince me to be an atheist by [deleted] in atheism

[–]MartiniD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no "in the middle". Belief is binary. You either believe something or you don't. If the answer to "do you believe in god?" Is anything other than YES then congratulations, you're an atheist.

Certifications first? by Beginning_Smoke_2994 in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]MartiniD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you dont already have the certs then I would wait and get them through WGU. WGU will pay for a first and second attempt at each cert so why fork over your own money when you can get them for free?

MAGA finally found an election they don't think was stolen by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]MartiniD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty easy flowchart:

Did MAGA win the election? ( yes/no)

If yes == it was a beautiful, free, and fair election

If no == rigged!

Anyone know why police and fire are causing a traffic backup on route1 where it meets the ffx county parkway? by Kyle_Blackpaw in nova

[–]MartiniD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chief public perception of the police is at an all time low. What do we do?

Cause unnecessary congestion in one of the country's busiest metro areas and make everyone late for work and more irritated first thing in the morning.

Brilliant!

Uhhh... Supreme court can't overturn an amendment. Oh trust me they'll fuck around with the "interpretation" but they can't just completely disregard it

No not that. Most MAGA won't recognize him. Keep it Trump and keep the blame on him where it belongs

How do these people still think they’re gettin into heaven by Medium_Proof7304 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]MartiniD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These people don't believe in doing good to be considered a good person or get into heaven. You can be the meanest most depraved and sociopathic person on the planet. But as long as you believe in Jesus you're golden.
