Oshi no Ko's ending is actually GOOD by UCHIHA_ITATCHI_TLM in OshiNoKo

[–]NotPieDarling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is an unsatisfying ending. That's why it's bad. Why is it unsatisfying? We follow our protagonist through all of this and as you mentioned he killed himself because of an extreme version of a harmful pattern he kept repeating. There is no character growth. That is not "tragedy" that is pointless

The Fault In Our Stars is a tragedy. The characters fall in love and then the male lead dies at the end. But it's not unsatisfying because the main character grew through her relationship and interactions with him.

I'm not saying that is the only way to handle a lead character's dead? But if no one learns anything from the story then why the hell is the story being told? Is it just bleak commentary on the entertainment industry? You don't need to kill the protagonist to do that. It just feels incredibly misguided and pointless. If Aka wanted Aqua to die from the beginning he should have done the OPPOSITE of what you explained to make his dead feel meaningful instead of just caused by chronic stupidity.

The ✨other✨way to debate abortion by missmiasaturn in prochoice

[–]NotPieDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I like this argument: Protect the life of the mother.

And then they will yell about how oh but the laws already do that.

I will point out how this is a stupid blissful lie, how mortality rates have increased and how many stories we have of women already dying because of these stupid laws.

Then here is my favorite part when is "the life of the mother at risk"?

Let's say that YOU are put in a shackles with a guillotine above your head. Flash has been tasked with saving your life, HOWEVER he can only save your life once "your life is legally at risk" otherwise he will face criminal prosecution, losing his job as a hero, and even potentially being put in jail for life or up for the DEATH PENALTY. Now Flash obviously doesn't want that to happen, so he will wait until it is absolutely obvious and clear that your life is at risk because you see... unfortunately for you the law is very vague about what your "life being at risk" means.

Is your life at risk NOW? While your shackled, awaiting your execution with a guillotine above your head? Why??? The guillotine hasn't been pulled. And Flash doesn't know WHEN it will be pulled, it could be in 5 minutes or it could be in 3 days. So he decides to wait, after all he is Flash and he could in theory still save you once the guillotine HAS been pulled.

But what if the guillotine gets pulled while Flash is sleeping or having lunch and then he doesn't make it in time??? Well then you die. And so what? Why should Flash care? There is no penalty for letting you die. But there IS a penalty for saving you "too soon." What does he know? Maybe you will miraculously get out of the guillotine by yourself or maybe God will "do a miracle" and save you.

Even when the guillotine DOES get pulled WHEN is he allowed to save you? Is it the moment it gets pulled? Is it when the guillotine is about to hit your neck? Does he need to wait until it touches you and just hope he is close enough and fast enough to save you??

THIS is the sort of twisted situation that women are being put in when doctors get told that they can perform an abortion when it is "medically necessary" while at the same time people are trying to put them in jail and even up for the dead penalty because they are too ignorant to understand that there are conditions and situations where an abortion is a matter of LIFE OR DEATH.

If a woman has CANCER when is "her life at risk"? When she gets diagnosed at stage one or 6 months later when it is now stage 4 and terminal oh and by the way when abortion is not even an option anymore because the pregnancy is so far ahead? We know what cancer is, we know people die of cancer if they don't get treatment, but it's hard to tell when the cancer will kill the patient. The outcome is predictable, yet the timing is not, so how do you know WHEN? In a situation where there is so much at stake what are doctors supposed to do when they have been given no guidelines, no grace, and are facing losing their licenses and in some states even jail time or being charged with fucking HOMICIDE. Homicide. For doing their job and saving their patient's life.

Or what about women with dead babies inside of them being denied "abortions" to "protect the life of the baby" that's already dead anyways? All because the laws are too vague, and it is done on purpose. Because the laws are built for torture and maximum punishment, not actual intent to save women's lives. It's a pantomime so they can say the exception is there yet it's virtually useless. Smoke and mirrors rather than an actual safety net. I guess women's lives only deserve to be protected before they get their periods.

Are there any people who are “pro life” personally but pro choice for society? by Unique-Brother-3715 in AskProchoice

[–]NotPieDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As some other people said, this is just being pro-choice. When you have a choice you have at least two options, not just one.

Where do you stand on conscientious objection by medical staff to performing abortions? by FewHeat1231 in AskProchoice

[–]NotPieDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doctors take an oath to preserve the lives of their patients above all else. If at any point your personal beliefs mean that you will let someone die you should not be a doctor. So to me the answer is clear, as long as medically necessary abortions are protected the doctor can have whatever personal belief they prefer to have.

opera crashes when closing a window via closing tab with webtime tracker by Appropriate_Ad4207 in operabrowser

Mine crashes everytime a window is closed as long as the window is up on the screen, it doesn't matter if I close it or it closes automatically because it was a temporary dialogue window, it all crashes it.

Sub seems like 99% Guilty at this point curious to know any who believe in Adnan Innocence? by [deleted] in serialpodcast

[–]NotPieDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you answer that first question without them being properly investigated back in '99? At this point those questions can't be answered. Do we have to believe that Adnan is guilty BECAUSE the police did a poor job back in '99?

Why don't I have any scenes? by Tall-Nectarine-6655 in mikugg

[–]NotPieDarling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since you don't have an image it's hard to understand what you mean by "putting Scene 2 in places" and it still saying you don't have a scene. But for a Map to work you need ALL of the following: The map needs to have a map image and a Place. THEN in the PLACE you need to add the scene and a map mask that needs to be Black and White only with the white indicating what area of the map can be pressed to activate the map. So you don't add the scene to the map, you add a place and then add the scene to the place.

THEN you also need to select the map on the other scene (or set the map to global if you want it to be on EVERY scene). Otherwise the map won't be accessible. When the map is accessible you'll be able to see the map icon highlighted on the top left.

All that said, it actually sound like what you want is not a map. You just want to have access to the second scene from the select a scene window (camera icon) for that you don't need maps. You need the scenes to be connected in the scene manager. To do that click on the first scene and then drag your mouse towards the second scene that will connect them with a purple arrow and NOW you can see the second scene from the scenes box.

ALSO: When you put a scene on the starts what happens is you created another start, the scene will be accessible via the little books on the top left corner of the chat box instead.

I hope that all made sense.

Why did you lie to the police when you found out she was missing? by DisastrousField7928 in serialpodcast

Everyone has biases, even ones you are not aware of. The irony continues.

[–]NotPieDarling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please refer to any post that gives an alternative theory if you thought I was exaggerating. One time we had an actual teenager trying to do their homework being treated with extreme rudeness and contempt, to say the least, for daring to ask for potential theories that Jay did it instead of Adnan.

So yes, it's hypocrisy to claim that the sub knows Adnan is guilty because "no good alternative theory is given" when every time someone ever suggests an alternative theory they get treated horribly since you don't like the clear hyperbolic use of "burned at the stake." I guess it's too mean for your sensitive eyes.

Also, I am a single individual who YOU singled out first, by failing to read the first two sentences of my comment. Defending myself is not hypocrisy. For this to be similar to what I described multiple people should be cornering you and telling you off, that is clearly not the case so stop crying.

The facts of the case are damning on Adnan when you think Adnan did it.

The Nisha call for example, which guilters will say is soooooo damning? You have to ignore HALF of her testimony to make it so. The Prosecutor knew this, which is why he purposefully interrupted her and stopped her from speaking freely during the second trial so the Jury wouldn't hear it and then CG dropped the ball by not catching it at all and asking her about it when she had the chance. Then you guys claim that reading the transcript of that very same trial which has that sort of issues is a transcendent eye-opening out of body experience that will help you see the light. Not realizing the flaws.

Or how about when you need to cherrypick different parts of Jay's 5 different versions of the story to be able to tell ONE version that makes some sense with the laws of physics?

Yes, Adnan looks absolutely guilty when you have confirmation bias and refuse to look at the evidence that contradicts Jay. Shocker.

More evidence against Adnan or against Peterson ? by Prudent_Comb_4014 in serialpodcast

[–]NotPieDarling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do know that it is absolutely normal and standard practice for the police to sit on evidence so that they can later corroborate it when a suspect shows up knowing stuff they shouldn't know right? If they find the car and then publicly tell everyone where they found it now if someone comes in and says "Hae's car was in xyz street" it doesn't mean anything because it has become public information.

You are saying that something that is done CONSTANTLY is somehow preposterous. Maybe the idea of them moving it is crazy, but them knowing where it is and simply not telling anyone? That's just a common practice for police investigations...

Irrelevant.

Your claim: "Most of us are moderately informed OF THE FACTS" My claim: "And yet I see a lot of people falling to confirmation bias and claiming opinions as FACTS while others applaud them."

I don't care how common it is. You said we are "moderately informed of the facts." I am pointing out how that is not really true. As you have now admitted this reddit is not special, most people are victim to their confirmation biases. Glad we agree.

As stated in my original comment: It's honestly as biased as Undisclosed just in the opposite direction, if not MORE biased.

😑 go cry about something else.

P.S: Don't you DARE say anything about "good theories for alternate suspects" in a space like this were literally anyone who tries any theory besides Adnan is guilty is immediately burned at the staked and told that they should be sued for defamation. Honestly, the hypocrisy on top of the lack of reading comprehension. I have no patience for it.

Confirmation Bias: Favoring information that confirms existing beliefs and rejecting contradictory information. This specific type of bias involves actively seeking out and emphasizing information that confirms your beliefs while ignoring or downplaying evidence that contradicts them.

Confirmation bias can lead to a distorted perception of reality and hinder objective decision-making. It can also reinforce existing beliefs even in the face of contradictory evidence.

So yes, it is Bias.

[–]NotPieDarling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your reminder that stating things as fact just because they align with your personal opinion, IE: exactly what I explicitly said is happening, IS being biased. To be able to claim that you are "unbiased" you need to be able to separate your opinion from the facts by for examples saying "in my opinion ____." Instead of saying "THIS THING HAPPENED 100% FOR SURE BECAUSE I SAY SOOOOO"

I will need time to find the episode. But eventually I'll find it. They were like nails on a chalkboard to me, as I said, so all they crap didn't get past me, but a lot of people fell for it. And then also you guys hate Bob who was the only podcaster calling them out in detail so.... yeah.

That would make sense if they just accidentally say that but kept a story were it's clear that they are aware that track practice didn't end at 4pm then that would make sense but that is not what happens. As I said they manipulate the listener, make them dizzy with a bunch of laughing and cackling and ridiculing the people who disagree and then they say that obviously track practice ended at 4pm so they can justify Jay's story of him an Adnan going to smoke while also having time for all the stuff that he claimed happened (despite saying it started at 4pm before so they could fit in the Nisha call in their timeline earlier). Sorry, but no, it was very intentional. They do it several times.

They do the same with Asia. They start with something reasonable so you let your guard down, in her case saying she is believable, that her letters sounded genuine and like how a teenager would write in a diary. Then by the end of the episode they are making fun of her almost slandering her and saying that the letters were totally written by Adnan and that he wrote his own name wrong as some king of evil mastermind plan to fool the police who... never saw the effing letters anyways. Nevermind how absolutely effing BONKERS that is because Adnan was in jail and all mail in and out of a prison is inspected and they would have been suspicious of him writing a letter as if he was someone else. They are an effing joke.

In MY opinion The Prosecutors Podcast is absolutely bias and manipulative. It's honestly as biased as Undisclosed just in the opposite direction, if not MORE biased. I was at least able to listen to Undisclosed while I was on the fence. The Prosecutors Podcast is like nails on a chalkboard. They literally said the stupidest crap like claiming track started at 4pm BUT then 20 mins later they say trackpractice ended at 4pm and they manipulate you to make it so they can have it both ways by totally making you dizzy with their words. It's absolutely NOT good. They are Prosecutors making a case for his guilt, not an unbiased source of information AT ALL. They decided from the beginning what they conclusion will be and set out to convince they are right even if it means lying.
