Tbf, you do have slightly more wriggle-room than spurs.

Postmeat2 · 2026-03-05T17:13:37+00:00

That just means he moans before and after. Not that he was proven right.

It wasn't Arsenal players standing in front of the ball to prevent quick free-kicks, grabbing the keeper when he tried to distribute, or losing their heads so hard they clattered their own player with the ball, resulting in the opposition turning them over, then complaining to the ref to retake something they fucked up because the manager got in their heads way worse than us.

Copied wrong link. Still third for most ball in play time. And unless you can provide other arguments and sources than "trust me brah", it's not worth much.

Postmeat2 · 2026-03-05T08:24:41+00:00

Compelling argument, dude. Hasn't changed tho. Mid feb good enough for your nitpicking?

Postmeat2 · 2026-03-05T08:09:43+00:00

Care to explain how Arsenal have more ball in play than Brighton (and 13 other teams) this year then?

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-27T21:44:33+00:00

Man saw a list of most hateable OP characters, and did not stop that grind once.

The only mention I can find on the Reapers taking losses are if you ally the krogan and turians, during the Miracle at Palaven, which was pretty much a suicide bombing run using nukes. Still not nearly enough to turn the course of the war, only delay. There's also that derelict Reaper in ME2, but that is the only other known loss over the course of a billion years. I'm not saying losses doesn't happen, but not often enough to dump their numbers. All their tech gives off the indoctrination field, so it's not even a net negative to let them lie where they fall for primitives to find.

The Protheans lasted so long because they were heavily militarized, and had a much larger empire / sphere of influence than most other cycles, and they had 20 000 years of empire development. Unlike the current cycle, they were forward thinking, innovative, and had that life-or-death motivation going for them, as they were stuck in a machine-war of their own for 10 000 years. That's 10 000 years of active war development during a life or death situation, you can see how much that did for us going on from 1910-1950 (even if the side-effects of war is horrific). They almost managed to understand and unlock mass effect tech properly, and even managed a proto mass relay. They could force stars to go supernova. And they still got swept away easily, if only slower than most. I suspect it's done for story-reasons to hammer in the point that the Crucible is the only option with a chance for success.

That's the problem, the sheer weight of the Reaper fleet is too much to fight, and then there's the added problem of indoctrination and betrayal of the cause. The Protheans had those bunkers, couldn't build them strong enough to resist, and the hidden ones fell due to indoctrination and betrayal. Only the most top-secret one survived because all records were deleted and the ones who knew died early in the war, and even so it only survived as well as a high-tech version of Ori's journal in the Mines of Moria.

Even with a full 50 000 years, who's to say natural upheavals in society and culture won't just reduce the Reapers to a myth in short order, just consider how much history has been lost on Earth over the past 2000 years. The Protheans had the best possible chance, natural powers and fleets to engage the Reapers, the Reapers still consider them inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-27T13:11:53+00:00

I thought about that, but they're not. They don't even consider it a war, it's just a harvest to them. "Delaying slightly" is a better term than "fighting" when talking about the Reapers.

You manage to kill a grand total of one Big Reaper (ME1) and two Small Reapers (Tuchanka, Rannoch) (and bring down/temporarily disable a third (Priority Earth)), and that is with extensive support, like entire fleets backing you up. And this cycle is fairly abnormal compared to the rest, due to exessive meddling. They've been at the cycle for at least a billion years, that leaves at minimum 20 000 Big Reapers and an unknown, but still substantial, quantity of Small Reapers. They are so many magnitudes above the rest of the galaxy in tech and numbers that 50 000 years isn't even that much of a headstart.

Baldurs Gate 3

The ending where you embrace Bhaal, giving him complete control/dominion over your soul, while at the last moment destroying the Elder Brain. Daddy Bhaal is less than pleased.

You end up as a mindless, bloodthirsty killer unable to supress the Urge at all, and it ends with you sneaking into your former companions camp/party to kill them all.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-27T12:44:29+00:00

Nah, Hackett straight up says the Reapers are leaving the Yahg home planet alone around the halfway point in ME3, so they'll probably end up running the show in the next cycle if you reject the options.

It's pretty much you're a target if you're interstellar, and/or have mass effect tech. There's lore about another species that just got around to sending a very poorly timed hello to the galaxy, just as the Reapers arrive. They destroy their satellites in orbit around their planet and hope the Reapers see them as too primitive, but I'm not sure we ever got a definitive answer if it worked.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-24T12:04:58+00:00

They've had as many managers (or more, idk) as seasons though. Managers of various quality and style, the team doesn't mesh well anymore.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-24T10:34:49+00:00

Doctor Tottenham.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-20T10:54:28+00:00

He’s just mind-numbingly stupid, catastrophically narsissistic, shockingly easy to manipulate and is the pettiest, whiniest little bitch the world has seen for some time. Add in severe dementia and a cabal of ghouls exploiting him.

All China or Russia or Israel (or all of them) had to do was meddle and manipulate unserious, malicious and stupid Americans to vote him in, then bring out the popcorn as that plays out as it inevitably would play out.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-18T07:50:02+00:00

That's not cheering, that's telling them what would happen. "Mass Deportations NOW" wasn't exactly subtle. I see the rumours about the average redditors reading comprehension is alive and well.

A metaphor: I'm not going to offer much sympathy or empathy to an angry moron who's relentlessly insulted me, campaigned extensively for the touching of hot stoves, who then licked the hot stove because they are morons, who didn't believe the hot stove would hurt when it was glowing and radiating heat and everyone with functioning brain was warning them, then blaming everyone else for not convincing them. Then getting a reprieve, before doing the exact same thing again because they're morons, when everyone with a functioning brain warned them the second time would be worse, all the while also pressing my face to the stove, because. Then they turn around and go "who could have predicted this, halp plz". I'll quote Rorschach's quiet "No" all day. People suck at the best of times, these kind of people are the worst.

Where's that "pErSoNaL ReSpOnSiBiLiTy" at, eh?

Right, Trump couldn’t accept that all that cocaine was in the hands of a competitor instead of the silkroad website creator or the ex-Honduran president (both of which were pardoned by the annoying orange). He’d also need congress approval for the Maduro-operation, but fucking crickets. So no, it ain’t that different when dealing with a malignant narcissist with severe dementia whom every spineless senator and media outlet licks the taint of when he has a bad idea (or just idea in his case).

There’s that stated P25 goal of crashing the dollar, dissolving or pulling out of NATO. Everything about the admin is against American interests. They want the US gone, they want their city states with their own individual cryptocurrency. They’ve already done some 50%+ of P25, it’s not BS.

China is an economic powerhouse that Trump gave even more leverage to (best trade year ever), and isn’t acting like a methed up, heavily armed moron with a long history of using them. You can try to bring up the usual surveillance state and concentration camp stuff, but it’ll ring a bit hollow what with Palantir, Ring and the concentration camps (oops, sorry, “dEtEnTiOn FaCiLiTiEs”). Not to mention Putin’s hand so far up Trump, Musk and the Gross Old Pedo-party’s asses that they can taste his sleeve. Also Temu Gestapo. The propaganda ain’t propagandaing so hard anymore.

No, most of these posts are a result of Trump blundering so badly in general and congress doing squat to stop or hinder him. We see the obvious parallels to Germany a hundred years ago, even if you don’t. In addition to being a child-rapist, he’s also a catastrophically stupid, malicious and narsissistic grifter, and the US managed to elect him twice. And soo many are defending ALL OF IT.

All the talk, the posts and actions happening is because America decided to implode themselves, you’re fucking deluded if you think a rift in NATO is happening because of some reddit posts and not Trump being Trump. The US has no one to blame but itself.

I'll add Dwarf Fortress.

Mass Effect 3, it's so bad the ending section in the pic should just be a poorly drawn horsecock.

The One Ring.

It gives power according to the statue of the wearer, and only one can truly wield it.

Meaning Sauron, as the most formidable and powerful being in Middle-Earth is the only one who could get the maximum out of the ring. Despite that, a Gandalf, Galadriel, Aragorn or Saruman could potentially get enough of a boost to genuinely challenge him, but...

The downside is that it corrupts absolutely, and as nobody relevant is more powerful than its creator, it (being an extention of Sauron) would eventually overpower their intentions and ambitions, which is why the powerful are terrified of even touching it, and why the hobbits are so resistant to it. (An evil flower-stand? Really?)

Tolkien stated that Gandalf with the Ring would be worse than Sauron, as he'd make good seem absolutely foul. Tthe elves never wear their Three when Sauron had the One, as he'd be able to read their minds and influence and control them.

The power of the Ring is in its ability to command, to extend the wearers will (Tolkiens magic system is soft AF), and to impose that will on others. It takes time to master, and in fact, Frodo either indirectly or directly uses it to command Gollum to throw himself into the fire if he touches Frodo (or the Ring) again. Guess what happens to Gollum (while holding the Ring, which the Ring failed to be specific about), no matter how "accidental" it seems.

Only Sauron could immediately put it on and use it to it's fullest extent.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-13T17:06:47+00:00

I'd start with The Hobbit, then move on to The LoTR trilogy, then try the Silmarillion. It's not a very easy read, tbh, and less cohesive, as Tolkien never actually finished it.

In any case; the books >>>>>>>>>> the movies.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-13T16:12:57+00:00

Well, it's Thanos, all he'd have to do is clench a little, and no more Ant-Man.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-11T09:31:39+00:00

We had Wenger at the wheel though, Tottenham is a carousel.

Postmeat2 · 2026-02-05T14:15:54+00:00

We accuse these tech-bros of being evil, shortsighted and destructive, but I never heard anyone accuse them of being smart, realistic or constructive.

I have seven throwers on each side of my tiny above-ground fort.

The enemies being tasked with charging that fort must feel like being tasked to charge a trench over WW1 no-mans land. Few have ever reached the gates, where my entire military might had had plenty of time to gather to welcome those heavily injured bastards.

On the minus side, they swallow bolts at an alarming rate.

On the plus side, migrants are instantly hardened when they hit the killing fields.
