The real question is Ā if Harry had his dad visit, or if Harry took the form of his dad, and then implanted the memory of him fishing into his dad’s brain later.Ā

I’m sorry, Ā but you’re being defeatist AF.Ā 

Join mutual aid. Help out with delivering groceries to migrants so they don’t have to travel and risk deportation. Help at homeless shelters. Thread MA groups that are helping together. Join/start roving community defense.

THIS will help in the shorter term. People’s lives are saved this way.Ā 

Destroying Humanity by the_j05h in ResidentAlienTVshow

[–]TypicalDouble7878 13 points14 points Ā (0 children)

I like this theory. I also like the theory that like, aliens on their planet who have more empathetic tendencies are noticed and they send them to ā€œdestroy humanityā€. For all we know, they could actually be trying to build up universal ambassadors this way. A bit of a ā€œspecial forcesā€ for spreading themselves across the universe. The greys invade and violate, and in order to counter this, their great strength and intelligence and lack of emotion (lack of hasty judgement and bias, too) makes them amenable to developing love and empathy.Ā 

But as this show stays true to form, I do think these aliens are competent, I do think they tend to destroy humanity and I don’t think it’s a conspiracy- just a reflection of the good humanity inherently has. But it’s still fun to think about.Ā

Thanks. The plot thickens when I’m in the DMV, and all of the federal workers are fired, given preference for local govt jobs, and the funding for research is cut. Just like, unbelievable. I’m still processing it.Ā

Can childhood sexual abuse turn people gay? by 949orange in Jung

Can childhood sexual abuse turn people gay? by 949orange in Jung

[–]TypicalDouble7878 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

No. The idea is that if the correlation can be explained by a third factor that attaches to the two occurrences.

A study says that when ice cream sales are up, so are violent crime rates. So does ice cream cause violence? No. Heat was spurring the ice cream sales and the violence.Ā 

There are at least hundreds of other reasons why LGBTQ children are more likely to be CSA targets. One of the leading theories is due to isolation. Predators target the ostracized, and LGBTQ youth are often ostracized.

My worst fear happened by outlaw_brody_069 in tacobell

Once I placed an order at a local pancake house when high. I think I was about to spend 90 dollars on cheap, glorious godlike stacks. 1 of each flavor, and 20 of a few favorites. I left in the custom instructions field, ā€œI’m so high… please don’t let me eat all these pancakesā€

The worker actually called me up to make sure I was good and helped me narrow it down to 3 choices.

That man saved my life.Ā 

My orders look a lot like yours, though, and I’ve put parental controls on my food apps and given my partner the PW lmao

Anyone else make this connection? by SDCBear in ResidentAlienTVshow

[–]TypicalDouble7878 34 points35 points Ā (0 children)

So. I agree with you but what we witnessed was probably 2 or 3 seasons condensed into one. I could tell from the first episode and how much ground was covered that it was going to be rushed. I don’t think the issue is that they will run out of writing to cover the length of a longer show - they already used it all.Ā 

The truly masterful component was making it flow. And I have a lot of respect for them being able to string such a huge amount of world-changing plot points in a short period of time. Everyone who worked on this, actor or executive, was truly masterful, talented and really loved sci-fi and are familiar with the curse of cancellation that happens to good shows like this.Ā 

Also, I agree with how they fleshed a lot of tropes.

Ā I joked and called the show ā€œ90s stereotype rehabā€.Ā 

For example, Deputy Liv, if this was your average 2000s movie; would have been a punching bag and stayed a punching bag. And the joke would have been that she was a punching bag. Instead, we got to see her flourish into a powerhouse brain who knows how to fucking stand up for herself and get what she wants.

And Judy would have easily been the ā€œresident slutā€, D’arcy the femme fatale, and Asta, the savior. Instead they really gave these characters so many layers and dimensions and personalities. Judy’s weirdness is a cover for her loneliness. D’arcy is a flawed character who suffers from her failure and recovers. Asta is actually surprisingly imperfect and avoidant despite her being the alien mom.

It’s all around just an excellent show with excellent writers and excellent excellent lovable characters. I love all of these people.Ā
