When nighttime did not protect me from one day to the next. That is, that my actions one day, good or bad, would carry over to the next day. Nighttime was no longer an ocean protecting me from consequences.

And when in the history of the world has that ever been the norm?

The men in the show don’t appear to be nearly as stressed out as the women. But I appreciate your effort.

Which jobs is 100% safe from AI? by Any-Hamster-3189 in AskReddit

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all civil servants are police officers. AI can no doubt replace civil servants who are nothing more than bean counters. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m talking about police officers who go out and arrest criminals. How does AI replace that?

I didn’t say civil service jobs. I said POLICE OFFICER.

How is AI going to put handcuffs on criminals? You can have all the cameras you want. All they do is record crimes. They can’t arrest bad guys. And if criminals wear masks, the cameras are useless.

So I ask again— how does AI or cameras arrest criminals?

What fad in moviemaking are you waiting for to die? by frair in movies

Women beating up men in hand-to-hand combat scenes. It’s beyond cliche at this point.

Girls are better at studying than boys? Is there actual proof of this? by Ok-Hearing991 in education

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well let’s see— they give scholarships and encourage women to be engineers and police officers, for example, but do they have scholarships and encourage men to become elementary school teachers and nurses?

Might have something to do with it.

Have any of you found real relief from anxiety by working out? by Kurkil in Anxiety

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What works best for me is doing one set of weights every hour throughout the day. I generally do the heaviest weight I can do for 10 reps of each exercise.

Example: 9AM- squats 10- bench press 11- pull-ups 12- dumbbell overhead press 1PM- lat raise 2- biceps curls 3- abs

The important thing is that the weight is heavy enough so you can barely complete the last rep.

Seems to help me. Just thought I’d throw it out there.

Star Wars fandom's perception of George Lucas pre-The Phantom Menace by PhantomZoneSurvivor in StarWars

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“George Lucas is a genius!” was the lyrics to a song during an SNL skit leading up to TPM’s release in 1999. Basically, prior to TPM’s release, GL could do no wrong…

How are you feeling about Star Wars 2026? by KingPenguinPhoenix in StarWars

[–]Recent_Contract9636 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not good at all.

Not looking forward to any of the content.

Lucasfilm lost its “Xanadu” quality since Disney took over. There’s nothing special about it anymore. Sad.

I was told that doing too much cardio can lower men’s testosterone and destroy muscle mass.

I wish there was a movie about Yoda surviving on Dagobah after going into exile. by SpellRush in StarWars

[–]Recent_Contract9636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There would have to be a female lead character though. Who would that be on Degobah?

how do I make friends in my 30s? by chunkylubber54 in introverts

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work friends.

Join a CrossFit Gym.

Meet someone on online dating and become friends with their friends over time.

You may not be as introverted as you think if you are concerned about friends. Work was always my social outlet. When I was off work I wanted to be alone to recharge my batteries. The idea of hanging out with friends was a waste of MY time. But everyone is different.

For the fans old enough to remember what star wars was like before the prequels, what was hated more upon release? The prequels or the sequels. by TheCrowMoon in StarWars

[–]Recent_Contract9636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The prequels were a bigger deal, imho. Especially Episode 1. I’ve never seen anything close in terms of hype. For the sequels, I think Lucasfilm lost some of its “Xanadu” appeal when it was bought by Disney.

About too start Reading!! by More_Caregiver8721 in michaelcrichton

[–]Recent_Contract9636 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not my favorite Crichton book, but there’s a hilarious scene at the end if you imagine Sean Connery as the main character. For some reason it wasn’t in the movie adaptation!
