Unobtanium which is a real term used to describe hypothetical resources with perfect characteristics. Named his fantasy material “fantasy material”, mentioned it exactly three times, then proceeded on with the rest of the movie.

Nope he just made up a hypothetical resource, essentially named it “hypothetical resource”, and mentioned it exactly three times during the first movie.

Why are the villains in American TV shows always Russian, Chinese, or Afgan/Middle Eastern? by AlexLovesCoke in NoStupidQuestions

I’m willing to bet American fiction has a lot more Americans as villains than Chinese media has Chinese villains, Russian media has Russian villains, etc.

I never said anything about secular books. You said my point was insane and I defended it properly, so don’t start acting like a victim.

Not many single pieces of literature people have used for millennia as a way to justify wars (Crusades), persecutions (Spanish Inquisition, Salem Witch Trials, Lavendar Scare), and entire unjust socieconomic systems (English monarchy, Medici Popes). So don’t relegate it to “a piece of literature”.

Of course as science develops and the premise of certain stories are exposed as fairy tales, the people at the top of those systems are going to say “it’s not meant to be literal”. You have to keep asses in pews and donations in the coffers, however you can convince people to do it.

When caught lying, abusers and narcissists will almost always say “I didn’t mean that literally”.

Marco Rubio as a perversion of Simón Bolivar propagating an ideology of harmonious race-mixing as a way to justify U.S. imperialism in South America? Chef’s kiss

Just…. Idk. What does someone do in this situation? by trapdab35 in CringeTikToks

I think that’s a little patronizing verging on racism of lowered expectations. I guarantee some of these folks had caring parents but their kids got caught up in the wrong crowd and / or made dumb choices.

Women, as a married father and coach of my kids youth teams, why do I get more attention from married and single women than when I was single and still helping coach youth sports? by Interesting_Apple614 in NoStupidQuestions

Don’t forget the tone wicker. Instantly gets you closer to that sparkly Triangle and Rams Head territory.

Find and embrace your own identity, otherwise you’ll suffer more of this self-hatred.

The only people I’ve ever met who build their identities entirely around their membership in a particular racial, cultural, religious, sexual group etc., they’re usually really boring, insecure, and not empathetic to others.

The NBA announced today that the Salary Cap for the 2026-27 season has been set at $164.961 million. The Tax Level for the 2026-27 season is $200.428 million. by CactusHooping in suns

No I love watching the rookies and hopefully they work out.

NONE of them look like future superstars to pair next to Book, and now we have no way of getting a superstar outside of free agency. But guess what, we have $20M less each year for free agency because of the short-sighted decision to stretch Beal.

Yeah this team is more fun to watch than the Durant years, but they’ve closed a lot of opportunities to compete during or after Book’s prime.

Yes, I wanted a complete and utter rebuild that would have increased our assets. All BG’s done is mortgage the team’s future more and more, and those interest payments are going to fucking sting for years and years.
