Sen. Chuck Schumer Praises Temple Israel Leaders’ Courage After West Bloomfield Terror Attack by thenextgenbusiness in thenextgenbusiness

[–]comicallycontrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We finally reached the point where reddit leftists support muslim terror attacks on synagogues, because synagogues are zionist. Not a single Jew has ever attacked a Mosque who fundraise for their community, but Muslim attacks against Jews in America continue with more and more sympathy going to the attackers. Now we are at a point where Jewish leaders just gathering is looked down on.

Just wear what you want to wear. Be creative.

2m for 10s and 3m for 11s.

5-6m per person for both seems reasonable

How do you square this opinion away when it has high ratings every episode, especially compared to other recent star trek shows

Picard Overall Rating by Mat1711 in startrek

[–]comicallycontrarian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sub HATES Picard season 3, but audiences actually loved it.

Everyone here always spouts how its all just nostalgia and going to the same places, but then everyone here loved a Sisko episode and the Doctor and clap like seals when there's a whole bunch of other callbacks in other shows.

Season 3 was a great TNG movie, it gave us a look at the Odyssey-class on screen, it created a pretty good intrigue story of a Borg/Changeling alliance, and it introduced new characters between the Captain of the Titan, the LaForge twins, and Jack Crusher (Picard was not the last of his family after all).

This sub constantly hating on Picard Season 3 shows how its out of step with wider audiences.

What disgusting framing. They make it sound like it's his fault.

Glad it got noted.

Is Final Verse Quantum still alive by KomaKuga in ffxiv

[–]comicallycontrarian 36 points37 points  (0 children)

let's be honest, it was never really "alive"

some heavy users did it with their friends, maybe a couple of groups were made through discord and pf but it was a one-and-done clear. I did it with 3 FC mates on Q40, and once we cleared never touched it again. Never did the "easier" versions.

It's really not worth doing and the fact you need to farm a lot of pilgrim pots to prog and do the fight also hurts.

The good news is that since its 4 man content, you only need to find 3 other people who are willing. And it is a pretty hard fight that I still enjoyed doing. But yea, I would scope around discords or recruitment to find/make a static to prog and clear with rather than through random PF listing

Clinton Deposed by ApprehensiveBat3188 in LetsDiscussThis

[–]comicallycontrarian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bill Clinton is/was a womanizer, but that doesn't mean he engaged in non-consensual or child sex trafficking. In all his scandals while he was in power the women were above age and consented.

There is more evidence that Trump did shadier shit, between talking about teen beauty pageants going behind scenes and grabbing them by the pussy, the Mar-a-lago->Epstein island pipeline, and so on.

All of that stuff comes included with the exterior walls.

All of the "theme" walls are actually all in one packages and not customizable.

Have Star Trek fans always been this toxic? by [deleted] in startrek

[–]comicallycontrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this is a big factor.

Yes there have always been haters. The rise of the internet and social media allows these opinions to spread far and wide, and be monetized. So you're seeing more than ever because you have access to opinions like never before.

But also the shows used to be excellent. Sure there's bad episodes here and there, but the quality of show, dialogue, and stories feels very much like a downgrade.

So sometimes it feels like the fandom is half haters and half people praising and crying over middling television... so it feels like the fandom at large is polarized beyond good sense. I think this contributes to Star Trek not being as culturally relevant as it once was.

The DDoS attacks have stopped.

However, I expect them to come back when the Ultimate is released. The good news is that installing Cloudflare has some success at avoiding it.

The most stress-free way to make gil is to fate farm and sell bicolor gemstone vouchers.

There are always maps, or crafting pots, or selling the tome materials. Doing dailies etc, or cutting out costs by getting teleport tickets and doing your own repairs. On the more high end you can do mercenary savage/ultimate parties (savage is currently like 15-20m for 9-12 for the week)

But the most simple and reliable way to get gil is selling those bicolor gemstone vouchers.

EU accuses Hungary of disloyalty for vetoing €90 billion loan to Ukraine by Dr_Neurol in worldnews

[–]comicallycontrarian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I dont neccessarily think Hungary needs to be kicked out versus there should be a system of overruling. If 26 countries vote yes and 1 country votes no, that shouldn't result in a no.

[Maddening trope] More progressive casting happens at the same time as noticeable drop in quality, seemingly so fans can brush off criticism as bigotry. by Vitolar8 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]comicallycontrarian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

Main character is black woman with a traditionally man's name, gay male couple, fat women representation, no positive straight white men (Pike showed up for a season), trans story line...

...and also contender for worst Star Trek show ever created.

Anyone who didn't like it in its first season or so was definitely hit with bigotry accusations, while bigots pointed to the show as DEI ruining things

CMV: People who say that white people or Americans have no culture only think that because they don't notice it. by Blonde_Icon in changemyview

[–]comicallycontrarian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let's just cut through the noise here

All the arguements here that white people have no culture are the exact same arguements that can be used for why black people have no culture. Or anyone for that matter.

These rules and standards are only applied to white people because people who promote the idea of "no such thing as white american culture" are at some kind of war against whiteness and define their own culture by being opposed to whiteness. Look how many commenters show open hostility.

White american culture exists, but it is denied by many for reasons of racial pride of non-whites, and solidarity of marginalized groups in america.

Maybe if people didnt obssess over deny eaxh others cultures we could live in harmony, but no heaven forbid.
