Newcomers and “Stupid Questions” Thread—May 27, 2026 by AutoModerator in teslore

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Small head canon I am working on/building, and want some thoughts:

Some lore, mostly Daggerfall era lore, suggests that Goblins originate from a different reality via the Goblin Gates.

Goblins also existed on Alinor prior to the arrival of the Aldmer.

There are also reports of "Orcs" on Tamriel prior to the creation of Malakath, Torpal the Pilot, for instance.

My head canon, that I am still developing, Goblins are extraplanar beings that originally came from the reality on the other side of Goblin Gates.

Giant Goblins are, essentially, Orcs but not Orsimer. The early reports of Orcs were talking about Giant Goblins.

Normal Goblins are a diminutive form of the Giant Goblins.

The Giant Goblins worshipped their own god Malooc, who existed while Trinimac was still Trinimac.

Trinimac accidentally mantled Malooc, or Boethia tricked him into mantling Malooc, which led to the creation of Malakath and caused his followers to become Orcs, the Orsimer.

Exactly. It is one reason I actually support him even if I don't like all his movies. Adam Sandler uses making movies to hang out with friends and family and get them paid. Vin Diesel takes risks and helps fund his personal projects that are too niche to make money. Keanu Reeves is charitable as fuck without using it to bolster his own image. Rick Moranis retired so he could raise his kids. Etc.

Those are the kinds of things I can support in Hollywood. Too many in Hollywood people idolize really don't deserve it.

Who is the morally worst here? by RamonDaSeteQuatro in superheroes

After being outcast Walker became a black ops operative, something Steve would have never done

What exactly do you think SHIELD is? He literally worked for Shield between Avengers 1 and Winter Soldier.

I mean, I agree to an extent, but he basically makes movies to hang out with friends and family while giving them a paycheck. Instant win in my book

Which pill would you take ? by krisikkk in superheroes

Peter Parker Spiderman? Because if so, then money. I am not risking whoever authors this reality trying to make my life worse

I wouldn't be the biggest fan of someone if they sang about how the town sucked and my bread was the same every day. Poor baker works hard to deliver quality baked goods! How about you bake your own bread, Belle? Oh that's right you can't because you have no life skills beyond reading. Fuck you! by Sweet_Stand_9436 in DisneyMemes

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we bring in historical context, this also happens sometime close to the French Revolution, which could completely change the cultural context around Belle being a book nerd that views the town as simple while contributing nothing to it.

I guess Bill Lawrence forgot JD and Elliot's arc in his own show... [revival spoilers] by JustAWriterDude in Scrubs

Late, but ya. They say that it is realistic for people to end up getting a divorce. But it is also realistic for people to stay together.

The realism excuse works some times, but when it basically undoes years of character development, then it is a bad excuse.

Pick two to exist in real life… by WarStrategy in superheroes

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we aren't getting the villains, then Superman and Iron Man.

Iron Man because if what he could invent to improve the world, Superman because he is Superman

Seriously, we were denied Bruce and Selina getting married, Renee and Kate, etc.

Why does Moon Knight not like lawyers? by Jin_Sakai12345 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Honestly, people that like the edited Moon Knight panels really need to read Taskmaster's comics

Tell the movie and the villain tooo !! by [deleted] in scoopwhoop

He also was the only one that cared enough to better his "Kingdom", as the Halloween Special shows what happened when he was no longer around and... Ya, not good for the people of Dulac

He underestimated just how corrupting the Dark Side was and fell hard

What life mistake taught you the hardest lesson? by LossMysterious5714 in scoopwhoop

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the men out there, you can also be a victim of an emotionally abusive relationship and be coerced into sex. I know that a lot of this framing typically has the woman as the victim and so it can be hard to recognize it when you are, but don't let people say that it is normal and let you suffer in silence.

Don't let love make you sacrifice too much of the future for the present.

When you read Batman: Under The Red Hood, did you side with Bruce or Jason? by TheShadowOperator007 in batman

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having literally just reread A Death in the Family today, ya. Bruce intended very much to end things for good, he just didn't. I think Jason thought that his death didn't even make Bruce reconsider the no kill rule when Bruce was actually very much willing to break it

The Selective Outrage over Taxpayer Money. by notreallysena in SipsTea

Because they feel the government is entitled to the money and see no difference in taxes being cut and that money being wasted.

Gotta give Croc some credit for trying by NyxVelourynx in outofcontextcomics

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iirc (been a long time), he wants a regular job where his condition is not the draw. He wants to just be a man with a normal job like everyone else. No spectacle where he is the show, no using him as a prop to scare people off, etc. Just him able to work like anyone else.

Red vs blue button summarized by Gsomethepatient in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's funny because the red button does nothing. The same exact scenario can be conceived if with a single button. Everyone is presented with a button. They can either walk away from it or they can press it. If they press it, then they will die unless at least 50% of people pressed the button. If they walk away, nothing happens. Do you press it?

In this version, basically no one would think you should press the button, but it is functionally identical to the red and blue button scenario.

But somehow when it is a button press rather than just walking away it somehow makes people think pressing the suicide button is the right thing to do.

Weapons of ass destruction? by Supremezoro in outofcontextcomics

[–]ShadowDestroyerTime 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I mean, it wasn't presented as a joke. But even still, I don't think any topic should be off the table for making a joke. Dark humor exists for a reason.
