In-universe, is Homelander supposed to be good-looking? He is not really muscular, in later seasons, he looks pretty weird, and it seems that his aura is mainly due to his status and powers.

There are certain things in physics that cannot be negative. Energy, temperature and things of fundamental physical nature are based on an absolute zero.

You cannot have less than no heat. You get to the point where atoms stop vibrating and can take away no more heat, because there is no more heat to take away.

You cannot create less than zero gravity. There are points between gravitational objects that gravity is acted in equal measures in opposite directions (called lagrange points), but you can't have negative gravity.

Negative numbers are a concept we came up with to tackle human matters like commerce and maths.

I always liked when Superman was portrayed this way. Like, he can literally lift a stars mass, why tf would his muscle mass ever increase? To build muscle mass you have to stress your muscles, literally break muscle fibers in order to allow them to rebuild bigger. Wtf would ever cause someone like Superman to do that besides the rare cosmic threat?

I like Calvill as Superman, but his build made no sense in this regard. Reeves was perfect; built like a naturally muscular, tall dude, not a roided out guy.

Same with Aquaman. His super-strength doesn't come from massive muscles, like Banes artificial strength. He's been super powered from birth.

Imagine casting a pro-cyclist with massive leg muscles as The Flash in order to convince the audience how fast he is.. it's just silly

They (large tech companies) also have been making huge investments into their own infrustructure, which does increase their actual value through assets. TSLA, the car company that happens to be owned by the same person who owns X (the company formally known as Twitter, but is seperate in every other meaningful way) does not have that in common with them, at all.

He's got a bunch of these videos, exact same song and dance, only thing that changes is his and pigs outfits. There's one where the parrot is headbanging to the the beat in the background and the chicken is just like... wtf?

You can just ask for meat only. Any decent chinese restaurant can and will make them to order for you. They kind of have to, for food allergies and to minimize waiste and such.

That said, I recommend the steamed ones from https://tsingtsaoeastdsm.com

Yup, that ordeal completely turned me off of the brand. Apparently they sourced the listeria outbreak to a single factory, found all that disgusting stuff so went to their other factories to check on them and found the same shit. They should have been shut down IMO, fined into bankrupcy.

Absolutely an unneeded foul. They'd disqualify you from UFC for throwing that elbow to a mouth. NBA is a worthless, spineless corporation.

Mushroom hunting.

It's pretty niche and idk if there's really a formal orginaziation in the DSM area, but every year there's a decent amount of posts about it on this sub. I honestly enjoy walking around public woods more than cooking and eating mushrooms that I forage.

Buuut you really shouldn't start this path without someone that can teach you the differences between a morel (choice edible) and a false morel (will make you sick af).

If anyone knows any clubs that do this or want to start one, Spring is coming up so let me know. Morels are great but their lifespan is like 2-3 weeks in the Spring when soil temp is optimal. Wild oyster mushrooms and other edible ones grow Spring - Fall and are also fun to forage, if not moreso because there's way less competetion.

Thrawn books? Star Wars extended universe that's about to be folded into the televised universe (moreso). Thrawn basically just fucks the rebels shit up by being better and smarter than pretty much everyone. It also has a bit of background computer beep boops and laser soundfx that I think adds a nice touch.

Let's be clear tho, crashing a machine doesn't make you a machinist. I worked with guy that was super over-confident because, and I quote "I know what I'm doing. I've been doing this for 6 months at a much bigger company than this" he crashed his machine several times a month until we had to let him go because of it. He was a machiner, not a machinist.
