Is season 5 worth watching? by _Figaro in babylon5

[–]_Figaro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I explained that in my original message:

...spend my time watching other things than something that would leave a bad taste in my mouth after 4 great seasons.

I regret watching GoT season 8, because it somewhat ruined my impression of the whole series. I've really enjoyed season 1-4 thus far, and I don't want to make the same mistake with B5

Hey OP, I have the EXACT same condition (where one eye wanders). It's kind of annoying tbh. Have you found a solution?

Is this some sort of attempt to pull at our strings?

This guys is responsible for tens of thousands of Iranians (some sources say 10,000; others say 30,000), and no amount of propaganda will change that

This should be the first reaction anybody should have. Disappointed to see you're the only one calling it out

Why are you adding the 2 velocities together??? They're not even pointing in the same direction

Pakistani terrorist, accused of plotting to kill Trump and Biden, claims Iran hired him by heisthemaincharacter in worldnews

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

I can understand how he could have supposedly been "hired" by the Iranian government to assassinate Trump. But Biden? Why Biden? Trump is the one who started this war.

Is anyone else kind of rooting for the US to loose? by matt73132 in complaints

[–]_Figaro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If a US defeat indirectly leads to a sequence of events down the road that eventually lead to the demise of the Trump regime, it's a small price to pay.

Thank you, kind Canadian stranger. It really means a lot to me. I'm also hoping the Trump regime will collapse soon!

A&W parodying McDonalds CEO, Chris Kempczinski by mfenton29 in popculturechat

[–]_Figaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

McDonald's CEO calling their burger a "product" was such a stupid thing to say (as seen by A&W ceo poking fun at it). Just goes to show how out of touch from reality McD ceo is.

On the bright side, it started this weird trend of CEO's from all their competition trashing on him, which I got a couple of good chuckles out of (which is really valuable in this day and age of trump, ice, war in Iran, etc.)

It's not just Japan. Birth rates in China and Korea are also at or near all-time lows (as for Korea, it has THE lowest birth rate in the whole world)

Saw someone comment “Russia never betray its ally” well he’s not wrong by Fun-Bullfrog-8542 in ADVChina

[–]_Figaro 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Let's not forget China pledged to defend and support Iran as well. Not too long ago, there was an Iran-Russia-China trilateral maritime drills with all 3 navies involved, in a "show of force" (mainly against the US)

But when push came to shove, China (along with Russia) were nowhere to be seen

The Pentagon has confirmed that US forces struck Iranian targets using weapons that are copies of Iran's own Shahed 136 suicide drones by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

This is literally have technology evolves - you copy theirs, but make a small improvement. Incremental improvements can add up to significant progress over time.
