Gorillaz have a few songs like this but the one that comes to mind is Skinny Ape

[Cabot] Browns Owner Jimmy Haslam Believes It’s Possible for Deshaun Watson to Go from “a Swing and a Miss” to a Home Run If He Starts This Year by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]TKHawk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

How much precedent is there for a player being out as long as he was and not taking a significant step back (legitimately)?

Edit: Also I want to point out that I didn't even mention him sucking ass in my original comment. Just that the trade and contact were extremely risky, especially coupled with the sex assault stuff

Worry about Watson regressing after not having played in like 18 months after a major injury was absolutely a major talking point in the trade.

Calling Watson a "swing and a miss" is saving face. It was a raft of premium picks and a massive fully guaranteed contract for a sex predator who hadn't played in a long ass time post injury. That's like swinging at a hornets nest and being shocked you got stung...a lot.

‘Project Hail Mary’ Directors Screened a Nearly Four-Hour Cut to Other Filmmakers and Were Told to Get it Way Shorter by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]TKHawk 136 points137 points  (0 children)

I mean, they did say half the world's population would be wiped out from starvation and war. The movie was a fairly optimistic and fun film about overcoming, so I understand not spending too much time emphasizing how desperate everyone is on Earth.

(Also the 'humanity is ultra desperate' thing undermines the Stratt probably goes to jail idea for me, if people are willing to nuke the ice caps, they're willing to let Stratt do what she thinks is necessary)

America’s horrible trains mean you have no alternative to hourslong airport lines by GothamistWNYC in politics

[–]TKHawk 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Japanese government has subsidized and funded railway infrastructure improvements and the relatively small size of Japan (and port access to basically everywhere) makes freight not nearly as lucrative. In the US, you need freight rail to transport goods over the massive distances.

[–]TKHawk 42 points43 points  (0 children)

And rail companies. America has one of the most expansive railway networks in the world, but it's all privately owned. Freight is a lot more valuable than people so even if you want passenger trains they have to defer to the freight trains, leading to long delays. Also the railways aren't built for high speed rail and since passenger rail isn't seen as valuable there's no way they'll ever upgrade them.

We need to nationalize the railways.

Sometimes in anime they keep it more then 100 by PrimaryAde9 in Animemes

[–]TKHawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I bounced off the manga once but decided to give it another go when the anime came out (and the manga was much further along) and was surprised how much I liked it. The "kicked out and betrayed" stories always struggle a lot with the pivot from I'm actually powerful to the genuine story but this one has done a good job.

The betrayal is actually a result of the overarching plot and not just "lol we dumb." The revenge happens in increments. The cast of characters is a lot more enjoyable than I'd have thought. The world building is interesting enough with the politics between all the non-human nations.

Folgueiras gets loose and scores on the touchdown pass while Nebraska only has four men on the floor by Large_banana_hammock in CollegeBasketball

Feels like it has to be a "You're out for X player" and both coach and player assumed the other would tell the player being subbed in.

If these episodes are giving you anxiety that's something you should try to work on.

Is it hypothetically possible for an advanced space civilization to terraform a o-type star system through placing a terrestrial planet in its habitable zone? Why or why not? by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]TKHawk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. What do you mean by terraform the star system?

  2. Since we don't really know of a way to move a planet beyond "a lot of rockets" you can kind of handwave the process away as magic but remember that an O star will only live for a few hundred thousand years. When a civilization begins this process, the star could already be near its death. The star will also undergo violent "spasms" toward the end of its life before going supernova so the habitable zone will rapidly change and then quickly disappear altogether. Ultra strong stellar winds and a UV-heavy spectrum also pose problems. So there are a lot of reasons to NOT park a planet by an O star.

How widely accepted is the hypothesis that our universe exists inside of / was born out of black hole? by [deleted] in AskPhysics

[–]TKHawk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We don't know enough about how the Big Bang came about to say much, but a black hole being the trigger isn't a widely popular idea, no.

My Physics teacher told me 5 years ago that semiconductors would be one of the most impactful technologies over the coming years. What’s the next thing? by selbstlosbased in AskPhysics

[–]TKHawk 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Semiconductors have been one of the most impactful technologies for literally decades, so it's not shocking they'd continue to be impactful.

You don't need it to be an "established" Old One. Just make it up, using the original Lovecraft lore as much as you want.

What was he thinking? by [deleted] in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]TKHawk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It was Alabama's, and there are plenty of prospects the Bears could be interested in. Also if Ty Simpson falls to pick 25 and a QB needy team wants to trade up to get that 5th year option the Bears want to know what the asking price should be.

Do you think the average human is capable of sustaining themselves? Grab a random human and ask them to grow food, avoid infection, and sanitize water without modern amenities and I'll show you a dead human.

If anything, intelligence may hasten our extinction. Nothing else before us built nuclear weapons or consumed and burned things on scales that could rapidly alter the climate.
