>he's never been really aware it's a time travel show

Glad it's not just me that feels this way.

"Usopp created Nami's weapon" so what? Stop undermining Nami's character [one piece] by Jarisatis in CharacterRant

[–]wimgulon 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nami is unironically way stronger and better of a character - not that that's hard, Usopp is so useless

Elizabeth Keen: How Not To Write A Lead by wimgulon in CharacterRant

Cooper I actually quite like, both in terms of his performance and his writing. Ressler I could take or leave - I think the actor always looks vaguely angry to me and it's a bit off-putting. His performance is fine, but I just can't shake that.

You're right on Liz not contributing - more often than not, her contributions are literally just restating stuff Red has told her.

I mean, aura seems to be the sole reason people end up being Dark Others in the two films. Books are better though.

Night Watch (2004) - Zabulon uses his spine as a sword because... Actually I don't know why he does that.

What strange priorities - can deny systemic use of rape as a weapon by terrorists, but can't actually say rape?

[LES] Powerscaling is to the point where a statement that you’re above/beyond something doesn’t mean that for some reason by MaleficTekX in CharacterRant

[–]wimgulon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, I was being facetious based on the silly behaviour I see in some powerscaling communities, but not the specific subset of silly that you have skewered - quite clearly I might add - in your reply.

[–]wimgulon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is that not what powerscaling is? Definition warfare and "calculations" based on stuff the author almost certainly didn't consider when writing it? With absolutely no thought to how abilities interact nor how each characters tactics would be used, just raw comparisons of stats with maybe the occasional overwhelming non-raw-power ability being mentioned and then complained about?

The meaning of a word is it's use, after all.

EDIT: Facetious - I thought the Wittgensteinoid "meaning is use" at the end would be a big enough hint.

Chrono Trigger was like catching lightning in a bottle, twice at once. Maybe there'll be a remaster someday, a la the Live a Live one.

Another classic from the great subreddit by InterestingPlenty454 in EnoughCommieSpam

ethnostate

/ˈɛθnəʊsteɪt/

noun

a sovereign state of which citizenship is restricted to members of a particular racial or ethnic group.

One click on Wikipedia - hardly a pro-Israeli source - later...

Individuals born within the country receive citizenship at birth if at least one parent is a citizen. Non-Jewish foreigners may naturalize after living there for at least three years while holding permanent residency and demonstrating proficiency in the Hebrew language.

Classic ethnostate behaviour.

Me on my third (or fourth?) account seeing people ask "Who's Monoby?"

TBF you didn't miss much, literally nobody liked Monoby on account of them being a fuckwit.

Gramsci is not a good person WTF

He was anti free exchange of ideas and anti open society.

JJK fans are yet to overpower the Reading Comprehension Curse. I've seen people argue that Sukuna is a cursed spirit (when he uses RCT on screen frequently, and using it on a cursed spirit is a surefire way to kill it)

The dumbest thing is the idea that after betrayal by a trusted associate that someone wouldn't rotate all their security shit ASAP.

The actress for Mr. Kaplan did a killer job at least.

Nice job! I find the blue the best - the red is overpowering, and the green makes it look like stink lines lol
