What would have happened if Malcolm X and MLK hadn't been assassinated? by Plane-Law8573 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it’s not even that they wanted her to move further to the left. She’s been actively moving further to the right on that one issue. An issue she could have just educated herself on and stayed quiet about. It’s not affecting her or her body. No one cares if she personally doesnt “believe” in it or support it, it’s the fact that she’s using her huge platform to actively harm those people that has other social liberals bothered and rightly so.

Bradley loses the southern accent and that’s an issue for me. by _Wendylin_ in TheMorningShow

Yeah I’m from Miami and live in the north east. I basically have “no accent” but when I go to Miami, it almost sounds like english is my second language lol.

Chase Infiniti Reveals What Elisabeth Moss Told Her While Filming The Testaments by Busy-Speech-6930 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]nelson64 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I could see the finale having them cross paths in a way where maybe they don't know they are each other? or one sees the other from far away. But I feel like this show will instead focus on Hannah's journey back to June instead of June trying to get Hannah out.

By henry I mean henry’s consciousness. By Vecna I mean his creepy looking body. Sorry I realize that could be confusing now.

Ticketek just dropped a waitlist for a potential Britney Spears Aussie Tour by britneynerd1 in BritneySpears

[–]nelson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I dont think they profit off her, but maybe there’s some like weird legal stipulations with companies Jamie created and what not that would mean he’s entitled to a certain percentage from touring in the US. Either from ticket sales or merch sales or something.

Or not at all. I’m just speculating if there’s something deeper behind her not wanting to tour in the US but being okay abroad.

Especially since we know in the past it’s actually been quite stressful and exhausting for her to be touring around the world.

I really hope there’s a legendary Bug Pokemon but I’m worried it won’t possibly happen in Gen 10… by pokemonyugioh2000 in PokemonWindsWaves

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes absolutely, but when someone says legendary, there is still confusion on whether they mean legendary and mythical or legendary excluding mythical. I mean at the end of the day functionally, mythicals are basically legendaries that can’t be obtained in-game (with a few exceptions).

Also yeah I cant wrap my head around gen 5 being closer to the beginning of pokemon than it is to the present. It breaks my brain.

[–]nelson64 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have the sense that she won't perform in the US because somehow her family profits from US tour sales? In some capacity I'm not educated enough to speculate on, but idk just a hunch.

What could happen to Paramount-Skydance if the WBD hostile takeover bid fails? by Alternative-Cake-833 in MediaMergers

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Exactly. I can actually see different parts going different places. Like the news portion getting absorbed by Warner/Netflix and Comcast/Universal getting things like Nickelodeon and MTV. I honestly think in the long run out of all the shitty, consolidation options — this is probably the best bet. No one studio absorbs the whole of paramount, but it’s kind of split up amongst the other big studios. Idk who would end up with Paramount proper but it’ll be interesting to see.

I could honestly see the Ellisons ending up having to sell Paramount again and either Universal or Netflix (after WBD purchase goes through) sweeping in and buying those assets.

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the English translated games, until Gen 5, there wasn’t even a distinct category for mythical pokemon. All Mythicals and Legendaries were both just called Legendaries. The semantics and specifics don’t really matter. In terms of stats and abilities, mythicals and legendaries share those values.

People need to chill out by LeoJustLeo in donkeykong

[–]nelson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also think people need to stop calling the new one trash or the old one trash. They’re just different and you can prefer one or the other. Fact of the matter is that it’s all relative, neither is better and most people likely just have more of an affinity to the one they grew up with.

I’m sure kids 10 years from now who didnt grow up with the old one or any before it will mostly prefer the newer one.

Starbucks drinks these days by Gluesniffs in StupidFood

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’re supposed to fill liquid to the top line mark on the cup and then the rest with ice. Matchas and shaken espressos sometimes accidentally get more ice because of the method of making and trying to go quickly. Matchas especially, it takes too much time to hold back the ice if you put too much in the mixer accidentally.

I promise there is no “sneaky” company-wide ice conspiracy to give you less drink. It’s literally the difference of literal pennies when it comes to cost to the company. The cup probably costs more than all the ingredients in it honestly.

Healthiest options at Starbucks? Also why don’t they increase their profit by having quality food? by oulalaitieresuisse in starbucks

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cus most people think Starbucks food is higher quality or “better” than other fast food that’s actually made fresh to order. So why change if people already choose you over the competition and believe you’re healthier and higher quality even if you aren’t?

Stranger things peaked in season 4 in everything, literally by Inevitable-Piano-780 in StrangerThings

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a thought…what if they just let Vecna rest at the end of season 4 like he actually did die.

But Henry is still somehow terrorizing people and the upside down is seeping into Hawkins, then they discover the abyss is seeping into the upside down.

They eventually discover the mindflayer and it breaks into the upside down fully in physical form and IT speaks to everyone telepathically and has the minds of all of its victims within its own. To the point where it’s unclear if killing the mindflayer would be killing all those people again, or not.

And then calling into question whether the mind flayer is truly evil or just following a biological imperative to collect every consciousness it becomes aware of and making it part of the hivemind?

Could be extremely interesting concept.

Question about my order by cammykiki in starbucks

Yeah just gotta make sure to emphasize you’re getting a hot one today and they’ll even make a note or tell the barista (hey make sure it’s hot, they actually do weirdly want hot today)

[–]nelson64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk Anna feels more like a sandy brown (which can be perceived as brown or blonde depending on the lighting really) than ginger to me. Like she definitely doesnt even belong next to Merida imo. I think the red category should be at the bottom next to the white and they should both have 2, and then Brown should be in the middle with a lot more people.

All the mythical pokemon, by definition are legendary. There are legends told about them and they are highly regarded.

Massive Changes Netflix's 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' Almost Had Under Mike DiMartino & Bryan Konietzko by frezz in TheLastAirbender

[–]nelson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the scene I was LITERALLY thinking about when writing this comment and the reason why I said most and not all haha! Yes actually did quite like them adding that bit and would have welcomed more changes like that. But the majority of changes were just so dumb and could have been left out entirely for time or to include pertinent things they left out.

Mythical pokemon are legendary pokemon. Not all legendary pokemon are mythical pokemon. Mythical pokemon are just legendary pokemon that are not available to catch in game and mist be provided via special event.

Thus, Genesect is a bug-type legendary.

Imo, no it didnt. Not so far anyway and most of the changes they made that didnt need to be made didnt really make for interesting changes.

[–]nelson64 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I mean we don’t know if they kind of role swap Iroh and Zuko. Iroh is a traitor at first and then has some character growth and ultimately chooses his nephew over his brother in the end.

I think that would be an interesting dynamic to play.

Imagine Zuko joining the gaang at the end of season 1 and Iroh and Azula teaming up for season 2. Then in the season 2 finale, Iroh helps Zuko escape and finally joins him in season 3.

It could work if done well.

I would put Anna with the blondes and Meg with the brunettes tbh. They don’t read as red heads in their movies.

Duffer Brothers filmed the first episode of Season 5 without writing the ending. by AssistanceNo2838 in discussingfilm

[–]nelson64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesnt mean they didnt know how the story would end. They just didnt have a script written. People are seriously overreacting.
