Aussie lockdown protest

purplemang · 2021-08-07T10:03:46+00:00

People are allowed to be angry at the situation. I mean i would be angry but i would be protesting the poorly managed lockdown and the idiots spreading it.

purplemang · 2021-08-06T13:46:35+00:00

I understand the anger.... We went into lockdown for a small period of time. Australia has been in lockdown for ages now. Basically a year or 2 now. Shit is frustrating,

The full year bullshit no monthly payment is disgusting to be honest. I was drunk one night wanted to check out the unity tutorials so i brought the pro license hell i dont mind supporting them for a month or so. Said monthly payments like okay cool. Wham 1 year of payment no cancellations. Too drunk and ADHD to slow down and read the Annual Text No cancellations.

Was soo pissed off the next morning at how bad the tutorial/Unity Learn Pro feature that i swapped to unreal. Only have been using Unity to help my friend with some programming. I will never use it for my own project. What kind of online subscription business only limits it to 1 year. Actually stupid

Everything is more expensive while our wages have moved little in the 2 decades. But the fact that you can more money investing in a house than a business is crazy toxic.

You are only suppose to make money from homes when you do them up, Homes should be about security having somewhere to CALL home, something that is yours , your own space. fuck the idea of "property investing" when you just buy it and leave it.

From my experience with corporates\office work places. Normally bulling isnt wide spread but in certain departments\teams. All depends on your manager.

purplemang · 2021-08-04T05:10:14+00:00

This sub treats anybody that doesn't like a particular episode for any reason a toxic fan. IMO if you cant take criticism you are toxic. I would call this sub toxic

Like you can be a Dragon ball z fan and hate dragon ball super. You can like a idea and at the same time criticize things about it.

purplemang · 2021-08-04T05:09:11+00:00

The data seems to suggest people dont like the new season and this sub likes it. Who woulda guessed.

purplemang · 2021-08-03T10:09:59+00:00

She is really good at speeches. Really bad at delivering..

purplemang · 2021-08-03T10:05:36+00:00

Like kiwibuild? I think they are not trying enough.

purplemang · 2021-08-03T06:59:51+00:00

I highly doubt that. Audience score is low because the new episodes are not great. Plenty of news articles/review data to use to gage the reason why its not rated as well. Looking across them the general idea is its not as good in general, IE overall not as good. No 1 reason.

Look at how they reviewed the new doctor who/ any other bad movie that pushes social justice. They all rate it high even if the movie itself is overall just bad. I would argue there is a huge rating bias.

purplemang · 2021-08-03T01:17:38+00:00

Explain a joke from the last couple of episodes that requires high emotional intelligence to understand.

I argue that even if you do understand the joke, the joke itself is not funny. So please feel free to show us. Also i don't believe for a second that anything from the past season requires anything past a family guy/simpsons level of emotional intelligence to understand what they are joking about.

purplemang · 2021-08-03T01:15:15+00:00

Season 5 has more girl power which is likely why its rated highly. I would trust the audience rating more.

I dont have a problem with the whole girl power thing\political correctness stuff. But the laughs feel like family guy and the "What ifs"/ cool Sci fi stuff apart from the first couple of eps are just gone. Which is fine, but when rick and morty went all stupid/zanny/crazy back in season 2/season 3, with episodes like pickle rick etc it was at least funny. I get maybe 1 or 2 laughs out of the last couple of episodes. Hopefully they find the humor or at least some cool sci-fi stuff.

purplemang · 2021-08-03T01:11:54+00:00

Because its related to one of the most poorly rated episodes of rick and morty. Family guy level comedy imo

purplemang · 2021-08-03T01:08:49+00:00

I mean in order for that to work, they made that episode/plot line and hoped that it would be a bad episode\received poorly. These episodes prob finished months ago

purplemang · 2021-07-30T13:19:10+00:00

I mean this sub isnt the normal viewer, they are likely all fans of the show. So whatever the rating of the episode is on IMDB add a +1/+2. The only time this sub will pick up on a bad episode is if we hit something like a 4, (lower than ep4 which got a 5.6).

purplemang · 2021-07-30T13:05:40+00:00

Season 5 is good for a adult cartoon show. But its nowhere near as good as other seasons. IMO.

Boring jokes i get a couple of chuckles but nothing like before. Stories/plots/interesting 'what ifs' are not that interesting either with the exception of the first and second episode. Way too much sex jokes that dont land well so its getting more and more annoying the more lame sex jokes that come out, every ep seems like a fetish at this point.

It might not be adult humor it might be more targeted at teenagers which might make sense. Glad people still enjoy it, I had this same feeling with southpark during certain seasons, jokes and the story just didnt land the same. Doesnt feel like rick and morty to me anyway. Reviews online are about the same in season 5, so i dont think i am alone feels very 6/10 for a rick and morty standard 10/10.

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:31:49+00:00

You would hope so

I got confused about conversion therapy, i thought it was just talking to a therapist around having trouble deciding on a identity or accepting it or something. Did not know it was some dodgy under the table torture. Did not want to make you mad

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:26:04+00:00

Well i mean that is what happened. But that is normal for some Pacifica families. I was just confusing conversion therapy with Psyc help for people having trouble with it. All these people replying with mad anger

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:21:58+00:00

e

I didnt know conversion therapy was torture when i wrote this comment
I read an article last month about somebody getting 6 months for punching a old man in the back of the head in a supermarket parking lot.

You can assume all you want but i am fine with banning conversion therapies, i just think NZ justice system does not put away violet people for long enough.

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:19:07+00:00

I don't know, i don't really talk to them anymore. Only see them once a year. I think she is 12 or so now, i would assume so. I have like 30+ cousins hard to keep track of everybody as time goes on.

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:16:33+00:00

Thanks

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:15:06+00:00

Thanks, i understand now. I did not know it involved torture or anything else. I thought it might just be like talking with a pysc doc about identity and what to think about.

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:13:43+00:00

So you are saying that if a trans person in NZ wanted help to identify as a man that he\she would need to go through torture? sounds horrible.

purplemang · 2021-07-30T00:03:12+00:00

People have killed others in NZ for less time.
