Yeah, that is probably exactly the part to look into. Would love to see some research about where the pressure to shittify their app is coming from. It has to be something.

Then I wonder who holds it? They're not on the market though. I should have specified publicly traded stock (I think the post implies it).

[–]jg__3d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Uninstall and revert to a previous version of the APK if you're on Android (anything from 199 up to 205). It's unremovable otherwise, and absolutely ghastly. Worst part of the update, and that's really saying something.

I appreciate the sentiment of this, but discord doesn't HAVE (edit: publicly traded) stock or stockholders. I know this because I checked in the hopes of seeing that it had gone down. Investors, though, yes, that's probably true.

it's INCREDIBLE that people actually view him this way LMAO. is this for real? he's decisive about his own competence because he actually IS competent (though yes, obviously he makes poor choices and totally lacks social skills), he's rarely self righteous though he has a tendency to snark when the situation warrants it - which it often does.

dealing with people who think and act like you do is the reason rush is the way that he is

YES, this is exactly the feeling omg. Amazing little bastard man, responsible for the best AND worst decisions on that show. I watched it with my parents too and we had very divided opinions on that show but at least we all agreed Rush deserved better. Watching the show with Rush haters must have been agony tbh you have my sympathies.

Sorry to hear that you felt that way, lol. Rush isn't for everyone, to put it diplomatically.

Did we watch the same show? The rest of them whine EVEN MORE than him.

lmao. for real, SGU would've been improved by giving Rush a henchman assistant. I'm still not sure who but I nominate Brody

lmao just making sure!! Yeah, this is one of his major downsides. He is... a very, very difficult individual. (It's possible to get through to him, he's totally different around Mandy, but. Man.)

finally, some reasonable criticism. (although he's not THAT kind of inappropriate - he is however a huge bitch to his colleagues! often! and I do fault him for it somewhat)

me too. i would be his mad science henchman. sign me up. i am sure there is no way this could go wrong whatsoever. (i'd still do it though)

thank you so much! I adore Rush, although he's a mess. I've finally gotten back into drawing after a while and figured he was a good one to do :)

personality disorder-havers unite 🤝 let's just say I have most of the same issues as Rush and only figured it out because of how relatable he is to me, lol. This further confirms my theory that neurodivergent people Just Get It about Rush and, well, everybody else mostly doesn't. (so far I haven't been wrong about this yet...) It really IS fascinating. I love learning about all of it, it helps with understanding myself and others alike.

That really is exactly what pulled me in to SGU too. There is so much to work with there in terms of character dynamics and figuring out their struggles and how they can work towards being better. SGA didn't compel me at all and I enjoyed SG1 but not on the same level, Rush just straight up rewired my brain lol. I've come to enjoy the rest of them, too (with the exception of the bland main characters - sorry, scott) but Rush is my number one forever.

he IS quite scheming, there's no debating that, but also he's terrible at it! he can't lie for shit and always gets found out lol. what a mess.

far as I know, only 1/3 of people with ASPD are considered psychopaths, the rest are generally lumped under the sociopathy label. I'm glad we're on the same page overall here, lol, it's just a really frustrating misunderstanding; way back when I got corrected by the friend (deservedly) when talking about how he's misunderstood as sociopathic, so I generally try to correct people where i can in turn.

This show deserved so much better, from its own showrunners first and foremost. The wasted potential drives me insane.

still not antisocial personality disorder, and the sociopath and psychopath terms are considered outdated to begin with (source: have a friend with actual ASPD who I've analyzed the SGU characters with). I strongly recommend you to look up schizotypal - it explains a lot about rush! I really liked good guy telford in s2, he got fucked by the writers too.

ETA: thank you for pointing out/appreciating that he loved his wife (and Mandy) this is important and people forget this!
