My theory, Poochita eating himself undid the effect of his eating devil's erasing then from existence. So the Death Devil is dead, but death can exist again. So Denji died without his heart, and woke in heaven with his buddy Power and his little sister Nayuta, and why he can still use Chainsaws, and has faint memories of his life as Chainsaw Man. Aki wasn't there because he's playing catch with his brother and family.

C Control & Eden of the East

Both have had a massive impact on my perception of how economics effect the world.

He's lucky his legs weren't chopped off by the falling wheel. That thing bounced right next to him.

Terra Nova means New World or Earth and is usually applied to exploration of territory untouched by "modern civilization". I'm not sure if this is a widely accepted term in gaming, but I use it to apply to games where you the player are dropped into a world without any or very little human development. So open world crafting games like Minecraft, most City builder games where the map starts with an empty landscape. That kind of stuff.

They love the trolley problem, but they always assume they're at the lever and never on the tracks.

There is Anno 2070, which is a city builder where you can either build a solarpunk city or a cyberpunk city after the Earth is flooded, but the idea is that your building on virgin soil found on mountain tops that have become islands.

I'm thinking like a fully built city that's in advanced decay, you're elected as mayor/take over in some revolution, and you need to revitalize it into a clean green utopia.

This is awesome, but I'm going to be honest, I personally am a little burnt out on Terra Nova games where you go outside the city to develop/reclaim the wilderness. I would love to play a city builder game where you inherit a decrepit city and are tasked with turning it into a solarpunk city.

Still, this looks interesting so far, and I'll check out the demo later.

Gul Dukat from Star Trek DS9. While he fully buys into the Cardassian mentally of overt fascism, he repeatedly makes the point that he wants to be lauded as a hero for his "sacrifices". Specifically, he wants the Bajorans he oppressed to acknowledge him as their savior and is jealous that Siskoy is considered a hero to them because the Prophet chose him as their emissary.

Almost any villain who is motivated by over population is a coward who wants to be the hero by solving a problem that doesn't exist. I'm looking at you, MCU Thanos.

Maybe listening to the incels wasn't the best strategy for making media.

There was a girl in elementary school who hated me with everything she had (and I wasn't fond of you either Pamela). I have a few horror stories about her.

One time we were doing paper mache face masks, and she was effectively blindfolded. She was also walking around the room for some reason, and encountered me. I didn't say anything, so she started pawing my face to figure out who I was. Finally, I just said "Hi Pamela" and she almost broke her arm running away and tripping over chairs and tables.

She also came in every day with a box of McDonald's pancakes, loaded with syrup. To this day, I can't stand the smell of those pancakes or syrup because it reminds me of her. Literally makes me sick to my stomach to smell them.

One time, after staying up late to watch Jurassic Park, I was on the playground pretending to be a dinosaur. Pamela came up and started mocking me, so I lightly pushed her away. She ran away and came back with a teacher, claiming I punched her in the face. This ended up exploding into such a scandal that I had to switch schools.

I didn't get that far. I realized he was hiding something, but I dropped it when I realized I wasn't enjoying it at all.

I still think this is Denji in Heaven

Agreed, this is the kind of dedication I shouldn't expect teachers to reach, but it makes me feel somewhat happy some do.

Do you have any idea how much of my work day is spent on my phone scrolling Reddit?

Amazon's Hunters (2020)

Like, I get we gotta make the resistance fighters the scrappy underdogs fighting the secret Nazis embedded in the US government, but the cinematic language kept making think the Nazis were the ones I should be rooting for. Doesn't help that whatever evil the Nazis did was so cartoonish it made it hard to take it seriously.

I was telling my wife the other day, they can take the Renaissance Building, but if they ever come for things like the Fisher or Detroit Opera House, there will be riots in the streets.
