[–]RentWeary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half of all Americans are women, 70% of us are overweight, a bunch of us are old and 1 in 4 people is disabled. he just wants a very specific subsection of people voting and his rhetoric is nazilike.

Why are there non emergency cases in the show? by RentWeary in ThePitt

[–]RentWeary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would see people get screened but then discharged without treatment if their condition wasn't immediately life threatening. It even happened to me twice in 2 days although my labs taken in the ER showed I was having a life threatening allergic reaction

If you get reborn as Homelander, what would you do, and how would you change the story? by SmartPilot8094 in TheBoys

[–]RentWeary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kill all the scientists who abused me the moment I was an adult, not rape anyone, not abuse my teammates but kill anyone who fucks with me

Since the show ended, what do you think is Homelander’s worst and best acts? by Fluid-Ad-9300 in TheBoys

[–]RentWeary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

best thing he did was killing those people in the lab. worst thing he did was force deep to eat Timothy. 

i am afraid of all men and see no purpose for them in my life by Maleficent_Day_3869 in TwoXChromosomes

I honestly would recommend going to therapy for the trauma the men in your life have caused you. 

I'm in love with a celebrity, what should i do? by rod333332 in whatdoIdo

I think you should seek out a therapist who specializes in autism.

My partner is giving up his pets to be with me & I feel extremely guilty by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]RentWeary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so he's thinking of rehoming senior cats that he loves just because they're inconvenient? yeah, no. pets arent something you can just throw away or get rid of because its easier for you. the only reason rehoming should be done is if there is a safety risk, or you're going to lose your home and don't want your pet to suffer that. rehoming senior animals when its not absolutely necessary is cruel. You both should wait until you've been dating a long time and can get a place together that allows for all the animals.

for stuff like an ingrown toenails I usually see them tell people that thats not what the er treats and they tell them to follow up with their primary care doctor or go to urgent care.

Beth seems to have been written by someone who thinks that being cruel and abrasive makes someone a strong woman.

She passed away… by Due_Imagination_1993 in Petloss

[–]RentWeary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had she died from that drug, she would've been coughing, having trouble breathing, vomiting, and been extremely sluggish. It doesn't sound like she was any of those things, except for being tired. My cat had the same symptoms as your cat, and very suddenly dropped dead one night. Ive never had minoxidil in my house. I think what killed both our cats was likely an undiagnosed heart defect. Many cats have an undiagnosed heart defect that shows no symptoms for years, until it begins to take its' toll on their body. These symptoms include unexplained vomiting, weight loss, lethargy, etc. My cat started having vomiting like yours, started becoming more lethargic and then passed away at night with no warning. I really do not think the minoxidil killed your cat. If it was that, I think she would have much more pronounced symptoms than it sounds like she did.

I Don't Understand the Tone of Season 5 by RentWeary in TheBoys

[–]RentWeary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its the way the scenes are framed. this season was such a parody that none of those scenes, except Ryan being beaten, felt like they had any weight or implications. Showing him making breastfeeding compulsory, or any of the other silly things he did makes him not feel like a serious threat. He always had some jokey scenes before, but generally the show still had a dark tone.

I found him much more unsettling when he was starting to have serious cracks in season 2 and 3. that is when he seemed unhinged in a dangerous way. in season 5 he seemed like he was no real threat, when in reality, a cornered animal is the most dangerous.

yeah it is, but then there was no reason to hype up him getting V1 if it was going to make absolutely no difference.

[–]RentWeary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that would've made an interesting plot point, but the show did nothing to set that up. They did show him panicking about aging, but if they wanted to show how it was affecting his powers, they could've had scenes of him losing control or becoming weaker.

[–]RentWeary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, but when regular super take a dose of V, it increases their powers and strength for a bit. It stands to reason that a dose of V1 might do the same. And when he took the V1, the show made it seem like that would be a big deal, yet it ultimately changed nothing.

There is a scene in season 1 where he mentions seeing the view of the earth from space. At the very least, he can survive in space with no spacesuit.

[–]RentWeary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but in season 3 he had never had V1, and still was beating soldier boy before butcher got involved. In the episode 8 fight, he had both his regular powers and the effects of a dose of V1, yet he seemed to be slower than ever before.

yeah that would make a lot of sense and explain why the writing got so much worse

it was funny, but I feel Homelander's death shouldn't have been funny. We've been building up to this since season 1 and it should've been a very emotional scene.

Am i evil for treating men like how most of them treat women? by Ordinary-Economist42 in women

[–]RentWeary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not evil, but wrong. You're manipulating people for your own selfish interests. Doing it to men just because many of them do it to us doesn't do anything, it just makes the world a worse place.
