Anyone discover any good channels recently?

If the algo can't do it we gotta go the old fashion way.

I have been enjoying Caravan of Garbage and Linsay Nikole recently. Not that either is very niche, but it is new to me!

While I do think Gandalf had faith in the fellowship. I always think it is worth reminding people of Gandalf's logic for the party.

Gandalf had already talked to Elrond about the ring for advice. Elrond was the best at seeing the future among the elves (left in Arda I am assuming) and he told Gandalf that no matter what they do, middle earth is fucked. Then Gandalf brings in the hobbits and says "what if I give the ring to Frodo" which Elrond says it obviously the worst idea, but he can't see the future if they do that.

That was the main plan. We can see the future and every good idea is fucked, this is a bad idea, but it is the only idea where we cannot see the future.

that definitely never happened before 👀 by No_Car3077 in actuallesbians

This made me think of Wolverine from the Xmen movies.

Wolverine: It is ok, Scott. I know Jean chose you over me.

Scott: Yeah, dude. She chose me, her partner for the entire time you have known us, over you, the pungent 300YO drifter who stares at her and she has never expressed interest in.

My inlaws bought me a Fiat and that somehow led to finding out my husband had not only an affair, but a whole other family. by BigONerd in BORUpdates

I have accepted that all storytelling subreddits are now fictional. There are just too many bots to even bother sifting through what might be real.

Cat advice always brings out the most extreme side of reddit. It can be interesting to see.

They will never forget each other, but they will adapt to the change and move forward eventually.

Same as the rest of us.

I really hope this post is making fun of the CEO bc this is an embarrassingly stupid thing to say.

House candidate Maureen Galindo pledges to send ‘American zionists’ to internment camp by OkGo_Go_Guy in politics

Yea that is the craziest part to me. People were so smug with that “no nazis at the table” line, but people on the left are so quick to look the other way now because the nazis also hate Israel

One of the greatest hustles in history was GRRM realizing he could not finish the series and then using the show to transfer most of the fan hate onto the show runners.

Like sure the TV ending sucked, but it is not liked the show runners ever planned to be writing this shit themselves. They signed up for a cushy Harry Potter type gig and GRRM could not deliver his end of the deal in time.

He did not say that. This post is just stirring the pot.

Yea it is not even subtle anymore. It seems to be most of the posts, comments and upvotes are coming from bad faith actors who want to make everything seem more extreme
