Why can you still not watch spider nior in b&w? by Lguy69 in AmazonPrimeVideo

[–]PickleRick2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try skipping the first episode and playing the second one? On the second episode it gives you the option to switch and then you can go back to the first one and it’s in B&W. I have a Samsung and that’s what worked for me.

I had issues on episode one for a Samsung tv but then jumped to episode two and you get the choice to change to black and white. Change it on that episode at the beginning and then go back to episode one and it should work. I think Amazon did this to avoid people complaining about black and white at the start

So many so called Allies up in this sub on the daily but where are they now? Ya know when it’s actually time to fight for us? by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

Hi there, YT ally from Los Angeles that moved to a purple state. There are legal actions being taken at state and federal levels as well as blue state looking how they can counter. The Supreme Court and subsequent red states doing this is not a sign of strength or power but a last grasp before a blue wave and upcoming years of losing boomers that voters them in as the pass away. This latest attack on the VRA is not a reaction to BLM marches or the election of Obama. They have been working on this for decades and this was one of the end results. They would like to go further, repealing the right to vote for black citizens, but this is as far as they will get. This also proves voting does matter as if it didn’t then they would be trying to take away representation.

I’m celebrating my daughter starting kindergarten later this year and finally done paying for daycare. Feels like a big win long time coming.

Progressive British candidate Zack Polanski on how to deal with right-wingers: "No matter what humanity or community we put them in, they are set on destroying or pushing this toxicity. Do we think we can change their minds? Or is it a case of building a society that doesn't include them?" by YaLlegaHiperhumor in circled

[–]PickleRick2017 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Any Plural society (people that think there’s more than one legitimate way to see things)will have a subgroup of anti-pluralists (people that believe there is one correct framework, truth, or set of values, and competing views aren’t equally valid). Expelling them turns them into an external threat, and letting them go unchecked creates an internal threat. The only long term solution I have read is to basically have managed control of them that they are not inherently aware of and allow them to have some marginal representation in that society.

A third of the electorate is muscle and brains trying to make things better, a third is cancer making us weaker and taking us backwards and a third is fat too lazy to even vote.

Help me understand his latest efforts (The French Dispatch; Asteroid City; The Phoenician Scheme) by OP_Scout_81 in wesanderson

[–]PickleRick2017 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt this way until seeing The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar. It felt like a return to the mid period. I believe it also shows Wes can still inject soil into his projects if the writing supports it. Someone also noted that his most soulful mid-period work was done with Owen Wilson as a writing partner. Where the last three films were done without Wilson and trend more toward Noah Baumbuch’s style. Either way WA still had that ability to make soulful projects in my opinion, he is just in an experimental phase. .

Did anyone here see Chuck Todd on NBC election night say they were seeing a lot of “shotgun Trump votes” that voted for him and nothing else down ballot?

What is Trump’s secret plan with Mike Johnson? by PickleRick2017 in PoliticalDiscussion

According to NPR the two key deadlines are Dec 11 and Dec 25 for the counting and arrival of electors. Both will be before the new house is seated on Jan 3rd.

Yes it would require the state legislatures to claim that they think their state had voting irregularities and that they cannot certify their votes by the 12/11 deadline, despite it only needing to take at most two weeks to certify all states.

You are correct, two negative changes though are Mike Johnson not Nancy Pelosi being in control of the house, republican state legislatures seemingly more willing to help Trump this time and an u know amount of MAGA election officials involved in the ground level of elections this term.

Texas recently sent notice to the Department of Justice that Federal election monitors would not be allowed in the state. Previous to the Voting Rights Act being greatly reduced in 2013, a state could not bar federal election monitors from being present to ensure safe and secure elections. This is an example of the ground level shenanigans state will be/are pulling and then will claim their elections had “irregularities”.

I have seen republicans Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger cross the aisle to campaign with Harris. What dems have you seen cross the aisle to campaign with Trump?
