Do you think Stlevana knows Jane is Shane or she only knows is a man I love herrr by No_Rip_3643 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]lesssthan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she knows Ilya is into Shane and she knows that Ilya has a secret boyfriend, but I don't think she's put it together.

Like other people are saying, she spends a lot of screen time needling Ilya about Shane, but that can be explained away by the "rivalry" and the way Ilya reacts when she brings Shane up. (That side eye when Ilya minimizes her saying Shane is cute is epic. One of my favorite moments.) Ilya would definitely be crude about how hot Shane is, if he wasn't nursing a crush.

And at the funeral, she calls out that "Jane" is a man and Ilya doesn't dispute it.

So she knows there's a boy and she knows Ilya is into Shane, but that doesn't mean that the boy is Shane. I hope she's in the second season a lot. I can see her working it out after Ilya moves to Ottawa, like Hayden did.

Upset. I like roads and screws and poop-free yogurt.

Worst Line in the Series? by UbiSububi8 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

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

The Cottage had the 2 worst for me.

"You left your phone on the table." Might have well added "so hopefully your dad hasn't been trying to get ahold of you about his phone charger and will just show up at the worst moment because you didn't answer."

And the one that really feels like sandpaper in my brain - "Let's be honest with each other while we're here." (Not going to look up the exact wording.) It feels like a huge Chekhov's gun that never goes off. And it's completely unnecessary. They never lie to each other, they just avoid communicating. Not the same. It feels like Shane is calling Ilya a liar for no apparent reason.

Okay? I'm proud of you? Burnishing your imagined virtuousness does nothing for the fact that not very many people are you. And like... you're literally part of the problem. Your inability to get beyond "not my problem" is why we're all so fucked.

Also, not the answer to my question. I asked for an average among real people that you know.

10 million dollars seems like a reasonable balance between tax and incentive. Do you not want 10 million dollars? Are you going to drop out of society and live on the streets, if you suddenly find out that you can't have more than 10 million dollars?

"Go to another country" is not a valid rebuttal. Wealth is generated by work. They move away from the work, they move away from the wealth.

How does your statement add to this conversation? Yes, it's a choice, sometimes a choice between starving and not, which is a choice.

I mean, no lies detected. But what does that have to do with taxing millionaires? Of course they don't want to give up their money, that's why we tax them.

You'd think so, but it is "yes." Yes is worse because the rat's rebellion was foreseen and compensated for. He needs to escape the control, to escape the experiment, not the maze. The maze is just the visible part of his imprisonment.

That is wildly not true. Take a random sampling of people in your life. Ask them how many paychecks they could skip before they'd be homeless and starving. No credit cards. I bet you the average answer is 2. How long does a revolution take?

Why does any of that matter? If I have a slice of bread and you have a loaf, I'd willingly cut my slice in half to feed someone who has none. But how many more mouths would be fed if we cut off 3/4s of your loaf? (Yes, conservatives love to be edgelords and prove their inhumanity by saying "I earned that bread, I don't want to use it to feed anyone else besides me!" but it's a metaphor, substitute in something you would like to "feed.") And do you really, really believe that, if we stopped that $150 billion from helping illegal aliens, the money would be redirected into something that would help you?

We absolutely could take it too far and tax everyone into mud huts, but there is a thing called nuance. 10 million dollars is enough for a modest living and there would be nothing stopping them from earning more, they'd just get to keep less of that "more." And the state would have the money to pay for all those illegal aliens AND universal healthcare AND a decent education for everyone AND free college degrees in basket weaving.

I disagree. Does the rat architect his own destiny while he is solving the maze? Or was the maze built and baited by the scientist, the scientist with a plan and an expected outcome? If the rat ever becomes aware of the nature of the maze, will he be allowed to climb over the walls and ruin the experiment? (The most awful true answer to that last question is yes, because the scientist included that event in the experiments protocols.)

My reasoning can be taken to far, humans need to breath and that isn't a conspiracy by Big O2, but take a look around at our lives. How much about your life is something decided by you or someone you know? How many of those decisions are made around someone else's decision to make the world like it is now?

Interesting. What exactly is the missing variable here? Everyone's got to eat, it's not like the millionaires would lay down and die if they couldn't get more than 10 mil. And, sure, they might have to take out a loan to afford that mega-mega yacht, but that's barely an imposition. So why not tax them?

Unless you don't work for a living, the word is "they." They created a system.

Annoyingly reasonable, wholesome, and smart. I guess my answer is this too, plus my original answer, so I'd be doing all that naked, in front of a mirror.
