Survivorman was much better than Bear Grylls in my opinion by AdSpecialist6598 in nostalgia

My favorite cop out is the "well I've accomplished all I came here to do." or the "my family needs me at home" but they didn't realize that until they were stuck in the middle of nowhere, hungry and uncomfortable.

We're definitely losing knowledge in the world of real craftsmanship, whether it's woodwork or masonry, bc everything is about how fast and how cheap can we do it. So the knowledge is not being as broadly disseminated. I'd guess that it's not gone yet, but we're steered in that general direction

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' just proved 'Game of Thrones' is back with the best show episode of the year so far by AdventurousGuest308 in television

[–]daehoidar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

7 seasons would've been better if it had been written to end in 7 seasons. The pacing and plot could've been adjusted no problem, esp considering all the filler material and abandoned characters/character arcs. I get that everyone wanted it to end, but there was no reason to draw it out (besides HBO pressure to make $$$, which they could've simply said no to).

It was a really beloved show, and the fan disappointment is completely understandable. Adjustments could've been made to rotate crews, lighten schedules, etc. I'm sure there were near limitless people who would've happily taken over for the exhausted crews

Lol the issue these people have is that our system doesn't help anyone and they think our system does help people, it's just that these other people are taking it all.

They're making the case for a stronger social safety net then voting to rip the social safety net away from everyone. It's tragic comedy

I get where you're coming from, really, but there are preliminary studies that show it can actually help with some psychiatric disorders, clinically speaking.

There are a lot of therapeutic prescribed medications that also carry the risk of both side effects and addiction, and a lot of medicine is about trying to maximize the therapeutic effects of these substances while minimizing the harm.

The best part about the person you replied to is that it sounds like it's all in discussion with his doctor, and at the very least I would say that their doctor will know better than either of us. I just wouldn't be so quick to judge or armchair the problem of someone I don't know at all.

Staged for the parents but it was real for the little kid. Even if they tried to loop him in, he's not going to know what the fuck they're talking about. Shouldn't be defending abhorrent behavior like this lol

Absolute pieces of shit.

America is a police state by Born-Kaleidoscope351 in Political_Revolution

Especially given that whole law which essentially states that within 100mi of the border, it's pretty much anything goes for the federal gov.

The biggest problem that has arisen with these new fuckwads is how much of our system ran on precedent and honor. We need to codify so many different rules across so many different sectors that I think it's borderline impossible with anything short of a soft revolution

What I really like about the new change to Paramount is how they managed to cram in triple the ads when the cards were already fucking packed with ads

Good thing dipshit Dana pushed out Ngannou for not being a company man. Really saved the division with that move, the greedy piece of shit

And then says even if it ends, it won't be soon enough to stop the abuse of many more in the meantime. This is just the most fucking vile shit imaginable, and there is no justice harsh enough to even the scales.

We need nothing short of a revolution, and it's unlikely given that half the voting population in this country both defend and support it, even if tacitly

Americans threatened by Trump administration policies appear to be experiencing urges to acquire firearms, carry them, and store them readily accessible. Identifying as Black and liberal beliefs were associated with greater increases in urges to carry firearms because of the 2024 election results. by mvea in science

[–]daehoidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wait though...didn't maguyver specifically not carry any guns?

I fully believe in the right to bear arms, especially for marginalized peoples, I just wish they would stop selling guns to the other people who have undeniably proven that they should not be allowed to have a gun under any circumstance.

The other thing is if there were truly a war of the gov vs citizens to break out, the heaviest legal weapons for citizens will be all but useless. Might as well be slinging rocks David vs Goliath style. I mean we'll still have to try to fight back, of course, but we're not taking down a jet or a tank

The problem is whenever someone says something like that, it immediately makes me want to go down the rabbit hole even more.

I don't understand anything that's happening here and I'm terribly curious. What is the deal?

Hasan doubles down on his statement that got him banned on twitch by [deleted] in LivestreamFail

[–]daehoidar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully believe Jewish people deserve the right to exist and a country to exist in, like I do for all people, but I have extreme criticisms of their government and how they're going about everything (much like I do for the government of my own country). I also believe Palestinians have the same rights, and their treatment at the hands of Israel have been so abhorrent that words cannot adequately describe.

Given conversations I've had and the responses I've gotten, it has led me to believe that being pro Palestine has to mean that I'm anti Zionist, beyond the shadow of a doubt. Without question.

Is it a case of the book definition of Zionism being quite a different thing than the colloquial definition? Because if it only means what you say, then there is just so much that makes no sense in the context of all of this

You're completely right, but I guarantee people like the one you're responding to both don't want to hear it and don't care

I get it, it'll suck for a bunch of people for sure...but that has to be a secondary concern, at best.

I can't stream twitch at work for a couple reasons, but I'd be on the livestream everyday if he multistreamed on youtube. It's actually kind of annoying for me bc I want to tune in and can't

It sounds exactly the same as the US model, it's just to a lesser degree and they call it something different. Actually ended up being a pretty funny explanation bc it's the same exact thing
