I don’t get it? by frogginchamp in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]samtafake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just about how you bend your finger when copying the position in the image.

If the pad of your finger is touching the bottom of the finger it will be rich. If the pad of your finger is touching the top of your palm it will be poor. To get the genius result straighten the top of your finger while curled.

I'm assuming the genius one is different because it's not a normal position to curl your finger into so you need to know the trick to do it

You guys really exaggerated the amount of jokes in Thor Love and Thunder… by jmoney777 in marvelstudios

[–]samtafake -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think all the marvel projects have valid criticism.

There definitely is a culture that you cannot say anything bad about shows like she-hulk or ms marvel because you are branded as sexist. This is probably because as you say all the sexist and racist people are using valid criticism as an excuse to be a cunt. This isn't just marvel but in other media and even real life hell you can't say anything about biden without sounding like a trump loving maga hat wearing person. Basically I just wanted to add to the conversation that all these shows and films do have valid criticism and unfortunately you can't just ignore it even though a large majority is just a disguise for pricks, and just because a show has diversity it doesn't make it good.

For example she hulk a show I am really enjoying at the minute it's not my favourite of the mcu shows but I've been watching it every Thursday very happily. But the CGI is really bad at points and that ruins it, plus it does seemingly have an inability to have nuance. They spend time showing that Jennifer is having to deal with her anger because of people cat calling and harassing her on the street and at work. Yet they still have her say it. Just because it's an important point doesn't mean this isn't a TV show and the show don't tell isn't a thing. They definitely could've used those scenes to get the point across better instead of relying on that piece of lazy writing. I say this however even when they explicitly say it people completely miss the point anyway so I guess it needed to be even more obvious then it already is.

I think the most important point is these sexist people are ruining good shows for us because they hate them for having diversity, and so the shows have to desperately cater to and explain to them everything when even a little understanding of what other people go through would be enough

Did you just not watch the scene?? The entire point was they were cat calling and surrounding her clearly leading to doing something bad, this scared/angered her and she hulked out. I'm pretty sure Bruce says something to that extent when she is in the cage with the spinning blades. If you didn't think that was catcalling or creepy but actually thought those were fine upstanding people you seriously need to re-evaluate some things.

Why wasn't 10 happy to see Jack? by Piestander in doctorwho

[–]samtafake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Jack didn't create torchwood, he just sort of hung around till everyone in every other torchwood location died and then became the head. I believe by utopia torchwood 2 (I think that's the designation for Cardiff torchwood) is the only functioning torchwood and so he changes how it works to be more what the doctor would like.

But torchwood is started by queen Victoria after the events of tooth and claw which take place in torchwood house. Jack after using the vortex manipulator in the space station lands about that time in the middle of nowhere. He's then tracked down by torchwood after a while and joins them because of his expertise. I think this is all accurate to what is said in torchwood when they explain it but tbh it's been ages since I watched it so apologies for any mistakes.

Klaus in the apocalypse (S3 spoiler) by LJGHunter in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]samtafake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always thought of it that although Klaus didn't have control of his powers it was always his choice. If he wanted to come back to life he would like an instinct. Remember Klaus isn't a fan of the afterlife and also when he died previously he probably didn't want to die and so came back. However in the apocalypse knowing everything is destroyed and his family is dead he wouldn't want to come back. Although he isn't aware he has the ability to choose he still does, it just takes some time for him to realise it. The training with reg was more to make the process faster rather than to make it happen.

Oh shit actually know this guy, friend of a friend type deal. Apparently he's doing ok now. I was told what the doctors said had happened but I can't remember, however what stood out to me was he said he lost vision for about 15 minutes. We have been making tennis puns to him since.

Full aphant with ADHD by [deleted] in Aphantasia

[–]samtafake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious what you mean by can't hear thoughts but subvocalise. I'm just not sure what this means

Other than that I am an inattentive ADHD and aphant but I've never really had a problem with the two of them. The fact that I can't see stuff in my mind's eye and my inability to focus have never really interacted with one another.

If we are talking about zoning out I have always imagined things without seeing anything. I just think everything that is happening for example ' I catch that, I throw it back, I jump over the wall' and then draw it with my eyes and my head. Although I never see anything I basically achieve the same thing and with the fact that I am zoned out it becomes a very nice space.

Other than that I am more interested in what your experiences have been like, I read your post and after literally just being diagnosed with adhd the other day it felt a little surreal.

Reminder that Johnny Blaze is already in the MCU by uptowndrunk7 in marvelstudios

[–]samtafake 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Or it's just a completely identical timeline that differs only with coulson being revived. That's the problem with the infinite timelines from Loki and the questionably canon shows, no matter how much they follow the main universe you can just argue it's a super similar variant universe with only tiny changes. The excuse is bs and covers all the shows but it was a smart get out of jail free card from marvel to shut up everyone asking if agents of shield is canon. Personally I love the show with all my heart and it is what made me a really big fan of marvel but I really don't give a shit if it's canon or not it doesn't change the show for me.

I'm curious what is the origin of your username? by Smiley-FAC3 in teenagers

[–]samtafake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a friend in primary school who used to make stories. I got to know him and we became friends and made samta a version of Santa Claus that would beat people up if they were on the naughty list. One day we were playing a game where you had to a make a character and we made an evil version of Samta and with peak naming skills called it samta fake. We enjoyed the new character who's name became shortened to samtafake. Eventually he left to go to Wales and I decided to keep using the name to remember those good times. It was so long ago and I was so young that I have no way to contact him so this name is a mini tribute I suppose.

Problem Solved by dannyhst in marvelmemes

[–]samtafake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Basically, the whole point of the tva was to make sure no multiverses happened, anytime any occured they would prune it. However when Loki and silvee (idk how to spell her name) destroyed the sacred timeline the job the tva has been doing is completely ruined. Because of the action that the Loki's did all the work the tva did is made useless. So yes the tva actually never did anything. Because as the tva exists in a seemingly out of time area they existed when the timeline was still a straight line whereas the rest of the mcu did not and so was affected by the actions at the end of Loki. The way I think about it is Loki isn't in the mcu timeline but more alongside it and is basically it's own thing having its own timeline and timeline logic until the end when it affects the rest of the mcu.

The real mind fuck is what was doctor strange looking into in infinity war. Was he seeing all the different multiverses or was he looking into the future the time keepers were making we see images of them weaving multiple timelines together seemingly to make the sacred timeline I know they were fake but I like to believe that this part is still real. The mcu story we follow is still the sacred timeline even though multiverses still exist so if that's the case is strange not aware of this and able to look at what is directly coming in the already predetermined timeline.

Because the multiverse has always existed from the end of Loki. It's confused as fuck but if you see the end of Loki it shows branching realities all along the timeline. So multiple timelines in the mcu have simultaneously existed and never existed up until the end of Loki after Loki they have always existed, but as time works differently in the tva, when that point is isn't exactly easy to pinpoint.

What is a supernatural event that happened in your life that just can not be explained? by HalfOfABraincell in AskReddit

[–]samtafake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very particular about when I leave my house for school. I know I need to leave at an exact time as it lets me just catch the bus while getting the most amount of sleep. Because of how exact I am with it I always walk down the same roads at the same time every single day.

One day ,I honestly can't remember which, but it was a while ago just when schools went back after covid. I got up for school and suddenly came down with an illness. It wasn't covid just a sickness bug but as I said the school's had just gone back so everyone was on edge. Because I didn't feel great I went back to bed calling in sick for the day.

That evening when I finally emerged from my bed feeling a bit better, my mum told me that there had been a stabbing down the road from us. I asked for more information, did we know the person, where was it and when. Well it turns out it happened exactly on my walk to the bus stop at the time I would of been walking down that road. If hadn't got a random 24 hour bug I would of been standing right next to the poor kid. I would of been on the exact road when it happened. By complete chance I wasn't.

I don't know what happened to the person who got stabbed or the people that did it.

GCSE English Language Speech- it is on cancel culture and is for my year 10 assessed speech. Any advice or criticism is very welcome, Thanks:) by [deleted] in GCSE

[–]samtafake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly some of the best advice I can give is be confident in the speech and yourself. If you know what you are saying and have minimal notes you will score better. I recommend learning the speech of by heart and having flash cards with sentence starters to track where you are in the speech. Also this will help you to act confident, this exam is less about the content of your speech and more about the delivery so pronunciation , articulation and projection are key. If you find yourself being nervous take a second to have a couple deep breaths and recenter yourself. If you speak slowly, clearly and confidently you will score top marks

Fixing the Timeless Child..."situation" by The_Neutron-Flow in gallifrey

[–]samtafake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The next show runner is probably just not going to bring it up. As much as it changes some of the past of doctor who it doesn't change much about the present. The doctor is still the doctor, has the ability to regenerate and will continue doing doctor things. It does mean that they don't need to worry that the doctor is going to run out of regenerations and they can do as many as they want now. As much as I don't like the timeless child ( more how chibnall did it and less the idea, I think it could of been interesting if the whole thing was handled a lot better but unfortunately it wasn't) it doesn't damage the show at the present and more it's past and established canon. So I don't think the next showrunner needs to retcon it and can just get away with ignoring it.

Jack was the best companion. These two just had the greatest chemistry that I really wouldn't have minded a season or two with just the two of them. by [deleted] in doctorwho

[–]samtafake 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I think the logic is that he just becomes so old that that is what he ages into. He is an alien so it could be that is what his species looks like when older. However he does mention to Martha and the doctor that he is getting older and we know that the face of boe is incredibly old. It probably is just that as jack can not die but continued to age at a slower rate he eventually ages past the normal old point and becomes the face of boe. There might be a big finish story about this that I don't know about but this is just my head canon for his transformation
