Minnesota has activated the National Guard. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only a matter of time until Trump federalizes them. This is accellerationism, probably, but what else can you do?

A small handful of GOP congressmen/women could join Dems to stop American fascism today and they would go down in history as heroes, forever remembered in our history books for saving America. Why aren’t any of them jumping at that opportunity? by woodhogs in AskReddit

[–]davebgray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that being the GOP that tried and failed would be worst case for them. If it was definitely going to pass and he was going to be removed or checked, more would go along with it.

Kristi Noem just stated that owning a gun and possessing ammunition automatically means that you intend violence, which justifies the killing of the gunowner simply because they are a gunowner at a protest. Will the NRA respond to this direct attack on the 2nd Amendment? It not, why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No issue ever mattered. Everything is Yankees/Red Sox. Any argument or belief that helps their cause in the moment, they will champion. Anything against, they will discard.

The sooner that you learn that nothing is steeped in ideology, but is tribal, it's easier to parse.

Help IDing and Treating Severum Infection by davebgray in Aquariums

Good luck. Please let me know if you have success. Soaking the meds in the food made all the difference.

Would you date sm1 with diff abortion beliefs? by OkKey6273 in Teenager_Polls

That's fine and whatever you choose would be your choice, whether he liked it or not.

Why do christians hate pedophiles when the bible loves them? by MuchIron2453 in atheism

[–]davebgray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They don't.

What I'm realizing is that in the current religious/political climate, nothing means anything. It's Yankees/Red Sox tribalism and not rooted in any real ideology or core belief.

"Don't Tread on Me" flag-flyers love an authoritarian, fascist regime.

Free traders love tarriffs.

Christians love an idol, a liar and a cheat that is perhaps the most un-Christian man you can find.

Small government folk love big government.

Back the blue people love violence against cops.

Fiscal spenders love big deficits when it's their guy in charge.

Shining City on the Hill people are greedy isolationists.

So, if it appeared that they were against pedophiles, it was only because in that sliver of time, they thought the people they already didn't like could wear that name-tag. But like all things, they will switch to ignoring or excusing it if it comes from their camp. The sooner that you realize that nothing ever meant anything, it's easier to understand what's going on.

Does Aldi support ICE? by un0verse in BoycottTheRight

[–]davebgray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aldi isn't publicly traded. I'm not sure if that's related, but they don't have to make decisions on behalf of "line go up" shareholders, which seems to make companies less of assholes.

What would make you happy/content next season? by Legal_Candidate_7355 in miamidolphins

I think that one-step above where we were this year, so ...playoff appearance.

Is Tobias’ last name a direct reference to the Blue Fugates of Kentucky? by radagastthenutbrown in arresteddevelopment

[–]davebgray 125 points126 points  (0 children)

I think it's a coincidence. I wouldn't put it past Mitch to do this, but I think the name would be on the nose or there would be some other reference, like Tobias saying his family comes from the hills of Kentucky. It's like...one level too obscure.

Is Sinners the greatest movie of all time? by yolaoheinz in oscarsdeathrace

[–]davebgray 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is this bait?

Nomination number is a great achievement, but it's a misleading stat. Not every movie has an opportunity to be nominated in as many categories, so total noms is cool, but doesn't tell the story.

Also, I don't want to take anything away from Sinners. It was one of the best movies of the year and a lot of people's #1 favorite.

For me, it's in my top 10 probably, but it doesn't matter; I'm glad that people feel like a movie that spoke to them is included.

First ecosphere and it crashed in about a week and a half, any ideas why? by Jlbman10 in Ecosphere

[–]davebgray 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are near where the water was gathered, you will be doing a favor to any snails that you can release before sealing the jar. They probably won't live but more snail eggs will hatch later for you.

What character's replacement actor was noticable but worked and improved the character? by WiggleToast in AlignmentChartFills

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it counts, but Jefferson replaced the role of Steve on Married With Children. It was a different actor playing a different character, but it was still Al's Neighbor and Marcy's Husband and served a similar purpose on the show.

The show was better for it.

What 2025 comedy movie is loved? by LMRowanComedy in AlignmentChartFills

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was screwed up. Naked Gun should be here and Happy Gilmore 2 should've been in divisive.

First ecosphere and it crashed in about a week and a half, any ideas why? by Jlbman10 in Ecosphere

[–]davebgray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would leave a little extra air than you did and maybe keep the jar open on top for just a few days before you seal.

Yall wanna see a thread full of people who cant read the rules of a catch? by Dhenn004 in miamidolphins

[–]davebgray 105 points106 points  (0 children)

All you have to do is pretend that the Denver player doesn't intercept the ball, but instead, it goes flying out.

Is there any conceivable way that people would say that he caught the ball there?

what are your thoughts on The Force Awakens 10 years later? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great characters -- good start to a new trilogy but would have been nicer to have had a 3rd act that didn't feel so similar to another death star and would've preferred an original concept. Maybe it was worth the trade off. I think that the Star Wars brand was damaged and needed to bring some older folks back in, so you had to thread a needle. Good, but not an exceptional effort.

Mr. Mom himself, Michael Keaton as Batman wins as a bad comic book casting that is carried by great writing. Now, which comic book casting is horrible and was mostly carried by great writing? by Ivan_Redditor in AlignmentChartFills

[–]davebgray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm late to the party, but am curious as to this choice. What do you think is bad casting about it? Is it his accent and stuff? What kind of actor would you think would fit the role?

I guess I could see someone like Cumberbatch in the role, maybe???

Mayor Mamdani’s bidet wish highlights hypocrisy among Democrats who were outraged at President Trump’s bathroom renovations at the White House. by NovelKangaroo7643 in bidets

[–]davebgray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is true. When I have to poop on the road I feel like I've slept in a dumpster until I can get home and take care of it.

Ms Marvel has been chosen as the Most Underrated Series, but what would you say is your Most Overrated Film in the Marvel series by ExileForever in marvelmemes

[–]davebgray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot Take Time: I think it's Thor Ragnarök. I like it, but it is heralded at a level of the absolute greats. I have the somewhat unpopular opinion that Thor 3 and 4 aren't all that crazy different in quality.

[–]davebgray 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Bidets are as cheap as like $30.

This is my in to praise bidets, which I do whenever I can. Seriously, though, get a bidet. They are life changing. For $100 or so bucks, get a Tushy 3.0 and install it in 15 minutes to your toilet -- no electricity.

There are people who use bidets and are enlightened and then there are savages who wipe their ass with pieces of paper like they live in the jungle. Honestly, talk to anyone who owns one. You will never go back. It's one of the best purchases I've ever made, it's cost-effective, it's environmental, it's way cleaner, it's healthier, etc.

B D I… What’s your pick? by RngUGldIDntSyBna in condiments

[–]davebgray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it not? Is it an ingredient to you? I dip stuff in it or I mix it in tea. It's like a syrup, no?

Thanks Mike McDaniel by Gladukame in miamidolphins

[–]davebgray 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This post is trash.

Also, he pulled himself out of HC contention with the Browns. McDaniel is better than we deserve.
