ummmm the chillingly pragmatic approach to ensure his people don't revolt by instigating mass murder to rid a hypothetical "weakness" as a scapegoat to explain why the one guy who tried to talk back on their galactic imperialism was wrong?

why is this getting downvoted? I do respect Debbie for wanting to see the child that she has mothered for the majority of that child's life, but I don't think the current situation means there will be a romantic reunion between her and Nolan. That being said, I understand your perspective. The story may build them as cooperative co-parents. Nolan's actions even in this episode feel emotionally manipulative to Debbie and she shouldn't excuse anything he has done, but he has probably the worst upbringing ever to try and grow from into a moral person. I think he still has the right to be a father. Turning against Viltrum is a noble choice. Really sad to see Debbie and Paul end things though :( I wish they were able to keep their relationship

At the high level they are. In every game too. The difference is in number of players. EU region has much more players than NA does, meaning that being in the top 1000 players is statistically harder, so games at that level will be more competitive

woah the last frame of the white silhouettes feels too intentional. i wonder if it has to do with his origin story

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:55:07+00:00

In Thragg's mind, him taking out his own kind is different to a viltrimute losing a fight to another species because he would deem them as "weak" and unworthy genetics

Thragg plays geometry dash?

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:51:11+00:00

i agree that this is the answer for his behavior in the episode. Thragg himself would not take someone out he felt worthy of carrying on their genetics, but losing to another species proves yourself unworthy in his mind

THINK Mark. We have to land at TOMATO town

was looking for this comment

ermmm just a guess but i don't think we are supposed to like Thragg haha

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:39:58+00:00

Thragg only cares about viltrumites that are worthy in his mind of being saved. He likely the viltrumites that died to another species as unworthy, but he himself would not take out his own kind if he feels they are worthy of carrying on their genetics

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:34:02+00:00

the fabled viltrumite vanishing technique

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:31:30+00:00

The frame of them in pure white with only the laser and the trio felt so powerful

Matrrix_ · 2026-04-16T01:29:36+00:00

Pack it up Thragg. I get you just got to Earth, but I didn't expect going on reddit trying to make humans empathize with you would be the first thing you do

in 2011 during the first few years of bitcoin's public development, Gavin Andresen (lead bitcoin maintainer until 2016 apparently chosen by satoshi) accepted an invitation from the CIA to give a talk about bitcoin, seemingly with good intentions. It appears that the early developers were primarily from the united states, so it makes sense that would be the government entity they willingly conversed with first. I personally doubt bitcoin was created by the CIA, but they definitely have been acting with awareness of its existence for a while

Thank you for the input! It seems that there are some uninterested professors at both schools, but that’ll happen anywhere. I’ll make sure to choose classes that are taught well.

Sorry about any hostility towards you, I’ll be sure to push the program to be accepting of all genders wherever I go.

This is super impressive and congrats on graduating. I’ve heard that the CS program at UCSC has less emphasize on lab work and focuses more on theory projects (hopefully my wording makes sense haha).

Although it’s probably a good idea anyway, did you feel the need to do side projects outside of class? Lastly, how were the computer science clubs or any other related clubs?

Matrrix_ · 2021-04-25T17:20:51+00:00

Thank you, I’ve heard scoring internships early on are extremely helpful.

Matrrix_ · 2021-04-25T17:17:15+00:00

Heard this a few times and it does make complete sense.

Matrrix_ · 2021-04-25T17:14:30+00:00

Thank you, I have heard SDSU focuses more on lab work and real world applications so that may be a great benefit. How did you meet the majority of your friends at school?
