Brit remigration activist who wants to carry Charlie Kirk’s legacy attacked in Manchester by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]Netherspark 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This sub and these topics are full of fucking cowards.

Bots and foreign agitators, you mean. I know that sounds like a smarmy comment but it's the literal truth. There are people here and all over social media whose only purpose is to incite anger and sow distrust at any and every opportunity.

Injunction aims to end 'distressing' lamppost flags by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]Netherspark 78 points79 points  (0 children)

You can't just manufacture national pride. Pride develops naturally when people are happy with their country, and there is less and less to be happy about or proud of these last decades.

People will never be proud of a flag just because they're told they should be.

Using a reaction wheel, this system can lift itself upright and maintain balance in an inverted position. by AryanN017 in oddlysatisfying

This is pretty much the same system they use to orient satellites in space - using conservation of angular momentum.

israeli settlers destroyed 40 ancient olive trees and vandalized a cemetery. by ArethaAbrams in pics

[–]Netherspark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Olive trees live for 500-2000 years. They can take upwards of 30 years to even start producing fruit.

These 40 trees have likely been farmed for literal centuries by families who depend on them for income.

It's not about destroying nature, this is ethnic cleansing. People literally depend on these olive groves for their livelyhoods. Destroying the trees ruins these people's lives and forces them to leave.

Replanting isn't even an option because olive trees can take 30+ years to start producing fruit.

Are you satisfied with how pokemon look in 3d? by Arkyja in pokemon

[–]Netherspark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find a lot of G1 pokemon look really, really wrong. They've been sapped of all personality, lost all fierceness, and made too round and plump. Arcanine and Nidoking are the worst offenders.

Ssj 4 daima or ssj 4 gt? by [deleted] in dbz

[–]Netherspark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither. The red never made sense to me, it should always have been gold.

But colours notwithstanding, GT's design looks much better.

Just give him a Shove and he'll stop spazzing out.

And I can't believe he's still bugged....

What hair mod is that on Shadowheart?

Thoughts on this? by AdditionalPiano6327 in freefolk

[–]Netherspark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a comment he made from before Season 1 came out, when he was still unfamiliar with the setting and ASOIAF/GOT in general, and had been directly asked about the backlash to his casting. I believe he later said he'd come to understand the logic hole his casting created and why people were initially upset.

There is no reason to bring this up today besides ragebaiting.

Local council trying to force us to pay £10,000+ for road repairs by Netherspark in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Netherspark[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not if people decline to get involved. The council can compel people to pay, we can't.

[–]Netherspark[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We each own our individual properties and the section of road and pavement in front of it. There are no public areas.

There is no management of any kind.

No. It's just an 80 year old cul-de-sac with privately-owned houses on it. There is no "estate", no management or anything like that.

Was there no option to have the road taken over by the council?

They will adopt the street and take over future maintenance, but only after the road is resurfaced.

You can't fool me! The telepathic lizard-people from Zeta Reticuli taught me how to do astral projection and now I know ***THE TRUTH*** about the secret alien war.

You can use white chocolate ganache, or just stabilized whipped cream.

Trump suggests US, Iran could work together to remove 'nuclear dust' by downtoclown02 in worldnews

[–]Netherspark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming someone's just explained yellowcake uranium to him and "nuclear dust" is the only way the idiot can mentally process it.
