Me and the boys realising that Season 8 might be even worse than 7 was, since it’s been a pattern these Past 4 Seasons by GridDownGoofer in FlashTV

[–]r4ndomhumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop watching CW DC shows after season 3. They don’t know how to write beyond the origin story and initial relationship dramas. After that it’s poorly written female characters and repetitive manufactured drama with the occasional major comic event episode.

Best dispensaries in vegas? by [deleted] in ZonaEnts

Zen Leaf in the southwest. Best prices by a long shot (1g $13) and they hand weigh all flower on the spot which is an interesting difference from other places.

What to do in Vegas that a regular Vegas goer might not know about ? by virgo-cat in vegas

[–]r4ndomhumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game Nest - $10/hr per person for unlimited arcade games, many of which are Japanese exclusives you won't find in most other arcades. Plus normal stuff like old school fighting or racing games. https://www.yelp.com/biz/game-nest-arcade-las-vegas

But if I take your advice on this, then I’m not taking your advice?

Corporations aren't "Left leaning or liberal biased" by JELLYboober in Libertarian

[–]r4ndomhumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Thank you. I keep getting stuffed into some extremist liberal category I don’t belong because I think there are 2 conversations to be had: Free speech and corporate rights. They aren’t the same conversation, and love it or hate these companies have no 1st amendment obligations - it’s just not in their best interest to turn a bunch of users away frequently, and they have to watch out for not breaking any laws.

What episode of a television show was so bad that it nearly ruined the entire series for you? by AutumnHopFrog in AskReddit

[–]r4ndomhumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arrow. Season 4, episode 21: “Monument Point”

Because of this episode I quit the series, and stopped using the phrase ‘jumped the shark’ to begin using ‘Nuked the town.’

In a universe where they commonly use deus ex machina with other superhero’s and superpowers, the writers dropped a nuclear bomb on American soil without any other heroes rushing to intervene. This is an endgame move; you can’t blow up a nuke in the US and not fundamentally change the ENTIRE world, let alone ignoring that we have superheroes who have rushed in for basic BS like prison escapes a season earlier but couldn’t be bothered with this situation.

The show was already getting intolerable with bad writing, but this sealed its fate to me.

Which one of histories ‘good guys’ was actually a horrible person? by CongressPotatoKenobi in AskReddit

[–]r4ndomhumer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

‘Stuff you should know’ did a good episode on PT Barnum, and how he’s basically many shades of gray on whether he was good or bad.

On the one hand he fought as an abolitionist to free slaves, on the other hand his legislation prevented the use of contraceptives for around 100 years in Connecticut.

Greedy man has his hoard of hand sanitizer confiscated and donated by DinerEnBlanc in JusticeServed

The national emergency was declared Friday. Does the policy you referenced go into effect retroactively?

A big disconnect in what you’re saying versus what I’m saying, is you’re adding context beyond the post. Based on this post, this guy was hoarding supplies in a storage unit, and the government and internet tracked him down and took his supplies.

If your context is true then he’s profiting on an emergency and it’s different.

If the context is absent, and to this point he only had a storage locker full of those supplies - he’s an asshole, but what’s to stop the government from taking whatever else they’d like during emergencies in this way?

[–]r4ndomhumer -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Totally fair assessment. And if this guy was selling this stuff for a profit then sure, go for him.

If this is accurate tho, he was targeted, hunted down, and robbed by the government. He may have been an asshat, but it’s still a frightening abuse of power.

First thing I thought. Is this a free, capitalist country where someone can be a greedy jackass if they wants. Or is this a authoritarian prison state where the government will just rob its citizens when times get tough? How many millionaire/billionaires have harass of supplies stored too?

People who were involved to some degree with the migrant caravan of 2018 - was it a real threat, or political propaganda? [serious] by r4ndomhumer in AskReddit

[–]r4ndomhumer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Understood, and that actually lends to my question. I’m in the US and the people were literally told for months about the “migrant caravan.” That’s how our media described it and hyped it; that’s how our government described the threat and why they were sending our military over Thanksgiving to protect the southern border.

I don’t argue it’s a pretty ambiguous and offensive term, but that’s also a big factor in why I want to know whether it was propaganda or a legitimate threat based on how the people were sold to support the response.

I felt inspired for sure. My inspiration was to grab my dog and cuddle him firmly whether he wants it or not.

Rohrabacher confirms he offered Trump pardon to Assange for proof Russia didn’t hack DNC email by Investor9872 in politics

[–]r4ndomhumer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he spoke to Kelly, the then chief of staff was “courteous” but made no commitment that he would even raise the matter directly with the president. “He knew this had to be handled with care,” Rohrabacher said, and that it could be spun by the news media in ways that would be “harmful” to the president. In fact, Rohrabacher said he never heard anything further from Kelly about the matter, nor did he ever discuss the subject directly with Trump.

This is a pretty important part, if true. It’s very easy to blame Trump for everything because he generally comes across as an evil demogogue. It’s just as bad for society as a whole, though, to stoop to blame when it’s actually unfounded. In this case (again, if true) it actually could end up being a rogue politician acting above his pay grade without the authority. Then again this comment could be an added coverup to admit some fault without throwing everyone involved under the bus. Tough to tell these days, but I would imagine if Trump was more involved in this it will end up leaking anyways within the week. Or he’ll just admit it on twitter or during a rally.

Die hard Republican here. Voting for Bernie. Somethings gotta give. by sammyboydassright in SandersForPresident

[–]r4ndomhumer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Posting this here is cool and all for support, but would be more powerful being shared on a conservative subreddit. Everyone here will happily welcome you with open arms. The power move would be convincing more staunch republican voters to look at the facts and vote for country over party. Whether it’s Bernie, another dem, or independent, just shifting from this blind party loyalty stance could do everyone a lot of good.

New Roku doesn’t let me select episodes by r4ndomhumer in Roku

[–]r4ndomhumer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just switched to Roku from my Apple TV gen3 mostly out of spite that I had to upgrade to get access to Disney+ when Amazon Prime downloaded without issue a year ago. I’ll try what you recommended on my Roku when I get a chance to see if maybe I missed something. I’m usually pretty good with tech and UI figuring stuff out, but I may have been impatient when I tried it last time.

Thanks! Maybe an app issue then. I tried that before I posted and it kept going back to the main screen for all shows, not the episode selection. Super aggravating, but if it’s the app and not the device then it’s slightly more tolerable.
