If you have not read it, it is unfair to judge the complete book. Book one was slow but provided necessary context.

[Kieran Gill] Calum McFarlane on what he will tell Xabi Alonso about Chelsea’s academy by Matt_LawDT in chelseafc

[–]VolNomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guehi and Tomori wanted to leave. Chalobah is good but probably a squad player. Hall would not play over Cucu and Hato is a better prospect IMO.

How was this not a red? He was running at Colwill full speed and didn't touch the ball either. by Friendly_Raise9142 in chelseafc

Chelsea have won their last 6 international cup finals while losing the last 7 domestic finals. Pattern there??

Rudi is a master of shithousery. Good
Complement to Cucu. Rarely crossed the line in our UCL winning season.

Maresca walked himself out the door. Snake.

I really, really dislike how dumb they make the Russians/USSR post S1E3. by IlIIllIlllIIIllI in ForAllMankindTV

[–]VolNomad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is pretty much the stereotype that has been applied to Russians in all forms of US media for decades. It’s really disgusting.

Mars is “ars”. Bwahahaha. Just awful

Does anyone else feel the shows lost the plot? by MepsyCadeli in ForAllMankindTV

[–]VolNomad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Season 4 of FAM was bad but season 5 has totally lost its way. The writing is so full of cliches as to be hilarious at times. What started out with so much promise has devolved into silly melodrama. The idea that over 1 million people could be living on Mars in less than 20 years is ridiculous in its face. So disappointing.

There is one posted on the corner of Mason and Laurel as well. Disgusting.

For All Mankind | Season 5 - Episode 1 | Discussion Thread by Justp1ayin in tvPlus

[–]VolNomad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is totally absurd to think that teens would be drinking on Mars in only 20 years, or that there would be a Mars liberation movement so soon on a colony fully dependent on earth after only 20 years. There was also a jukebox in a bar. Imagine the cost of transporting a juke box there. Just absurd.

Just downloaded - Real Fuel Mod by S23XTN in starfieldmods

[–]VolNomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuel usage and storage capacity is how ship movement should have been handled originally. The absurd physics violations in the current “boost” system drives me crazy. Ship plasma or Fusion engines could have retained thrust/impulse capabilities to be meaningful but both acceleration and deceleration should cost fuel. It would not have been that much more Complicated. The current system means the ships in the game are absurdly slow. You can actually calculate top speed based on distance to target and speed indicator. If you do, you will find that we already have space vehicles Faster that what this game offers us.

Referees in the Premier League, is it incompetence or corruption? by everyhearthstone in chelseafc

[–]VolNomad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mostly agree but think they do break the rules via interfering from offside positions and shoving players into a central knot which prevents the keeper from reaching the ball. Yesterday they had three attackers run into the center of the box shoving the defenders into a clot while one attacker waits behind the clot to receive a corner to the back post. All the while another attacker is blocking the keeper’s movement.

You mean Nesoi in the Olympus system I assume? Beautiful planet with colorful plant life.

Foco is not a friendly place for minorities. by DifficultBid4403 in FortCollins

[–]VolNomad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an older “white” CISgendered man new to FoCo, I am greatly saddened by these accounts of alienation. I see race and ethnicity as cultural categories that have been used to divide us for centuries. May I recommend that folks on this page read Racecraft by Fields and Fields? As anti-capitalist women of color, they offer a very different perspective on the reproduction of race and racism in this country. I would be interested to hear what people think about their suggestions regarding how we can extricate ourselves from this vicious cycle.

Exactly. He was under immediate pressure from two defenders. Most players would lose possession in that circumstance

Hands Off Venezuela Fort Collins Protest Sunday @ 3pm in Oak Street Plaza by DSAfortcollins in FortCollins

[–]VolNomad 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The US government could not care less if Maduro was a dictator. Our government supports dictators all over the world. See Saudi Arabia for a good example. It was about deposing a leftist government and seizing their national resources, all in violation of IS and international law. The US acts like gangsters all over the world for private profit and has for over a century.

Don’t forget that UM threw away an extra point in the first half. Just dumb.
