    The word “carnivore influencer” just set me off haha.

    It’s so fucking obvious is it that these people are paid by the meat industry.

    Like, seriously. NOBODY has ever thought eating nothing but meat was a good idea until veganism became somewhat mainstream.

    It’s reactionary bullshit to keep the profits coming.

    I bet Shang-Chi is going to be the contractually-mandated MCU character to appear in Spider-Man 4.

    They’re probably reworking the Shang-Chi 2 script to be a Spider-Man movie featuring Shang-Chi.

    Really, the takeaway here is: “who gives a shit?”

    When they say “undermined peace talks” they mean “supported Ukraine so they had an option other than unconditional surrender.”

    We’re supposed to believe that after Putin got what he wanted in 2014 that he’ll just stop after he gets what he wants this time?

    No.

    Fuck Russia, fuck Putin, and fuck these bootlickers trying to frame Russia as anything other than authoritarian.

    It beats the heck out of “I voted” in helvetica with a clip art wavy flag. I think the appeal is that it’s stupid, just like American politics.

    If politicians start showing some self awareness more people will vote, and this pin shows self-awareness.

    I dunno, that’s my stoned analysis.

    I don’t think the multiverse is the issue. It’s things like:

    Covid delays fucking up the release schedule. No Way Home was supposed to come out after Multiverse of Madness

    Disney overreacting about James Gunn’s edgy teenage tweets. GOTG 3 was supposed to be before Love and Thunder.

    Disney pushing for content for Disney+ spreading Marvel too thin.

    Chadwick Boseman dying.

    Shoehorning a Black Widow movie that should have been made a decade earlier.

    Johnathan Majors turning out to be a douchebag.

    From the start I knew the multiverse saga was going to be a tool to pick and choose what to keep once they got the X-men rights back. I’ve been enjoying most of it, but yeah I’d like to go back to paying attention to the one universe please.

    It hasn’t even been much of a saga… only 3 of the movies and two shows (out of how many?) utilize the multiverse.

    Edited after smoking a joint: It’s almost like in sports when a team takes a season to rebuild after losing their major players.

    You must be younger than me. I grew up in the 90s and the Sega/Nintendo rivalry was intense.

    I think it was the SNES/Genesis era when “who has the better graphics” started to matter.

    At the time, I was actually of the opinion that the N64 was a step down from the SNES. Sure the graphics were 3D, but they looked like shit even then. Nintendo really fucked up by sticking with cartridges that generation.

    I’m with ya. When it’s gaming time, I just want it to work. I don’t want to be fiddling with settings constantly.

    That being said, I do prefer RPGs and RTSs much more with a keyboard and mouse, so I’ll usually play those on my computer, but that’s not such a problem any more with keyboard and mouse being supported by consoles.

    Nah, it was Coleco/Atari - Coleco lost

    Then Nintendo/Atari - Atari lost

    Then Sega/Nintendo

    Then Sega/Nintendo/Sony - Sega lost

    Then Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft - Nintendo lost, but pivoted to play a different game.

    Then you can throw things in there like 3DO and Jaguar Turbo FX, but they didn’t do so got to be considered contenders in the “war”

    Ok, but Batman is there to protect innocents, not solve systemic issues. I don’t care how tragic your back story, when you start freezing people to death, turning them in to plants, or murdering them based on a coin flip, you’re the bad guy.

    Also, Batman throws them in Arkham Asylum expecting them to get help. Bring it up with Arkham why they keep reoffending.

    Alberta school buses have been late for years, but there’s hope that may change https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/2266344003837

    I'm a school bus driver myself. I'll tell you the issue is that they're short drivers because they pay peanuts. The buses are coming that late because drivers are doing routes after their first routes. All the school bus companies *somehow* pay the exact same rates. There is no competition between them, but "they're trying everything."

    Episode 4 discussion?

    Since there’s no official thread I’m going to write my thoughts in this post as I watch the episode. The animated stuff has never really grabbed me. All this Ezra stuff is like, “oh ok yeah uh huh he’s super important I get it.” “Can I count on you?” - foreshadowing? I like this sith dude, but I feel like he’s going to turn to the light. Rebellion insignia on Sabine’s mando armour 🤔 Jedi bot nooooo! Oh good they saved him. I like this droid. What’s his name? Oh, it’s the 25 year old general again. I don’t mind her character, but she doesn’t seem grizzled enough to be a general. How come her kid doesn’t have head tendrils? Oh it’s Mr. Kim! I always like seeing him show up. Ooooo baddies being bad. Trippy map stuff is fun. Uh oh showdown time. Cool fight. She should have just stabbed spinny-lightsabre guy in the knuckles though. Guess we’ll never know who that guy was. Did we know Sabine had a light sabre or is this a new development? Oh no they’re splitting up! Mr. Droid said not to do that! Can’t they make a copy of this map? Why are they fighting over this one map? Any good data hoarder would have backed it up by now. Oh shit they’re going to talk about Anakin now! Yeah get bent pal, she doesn’t have to explain herself to you. Yeah don’t start wars, bro. Or do, I guess that’s why I’m watching *Star Wars* Oh lightsaber time again already??
