- Comment on Why'd they stopped making tv shows as good as x-files? 10 months ago:
I mean, I am not a huge fan of the show and didn't finish it. But the first season was stellar. But that aside, reading your other comments it seems like you don't like a lot of modern shows. Which is fine, but personally I find older stuff I watched when I was a girl just sorta meaningless. X files had so many skipable episodes without serving the overarching plot. I'm honestly kinda baffled that you would prefer monster of the week instead of expanse and breaking bad, but you are allowed to think as you please. Just seems at odd with two of the most higely praised shows of recent history.
And I don't super appreciate being called bro... >_>
- Comment on Why'd they stopped making tv shows as good as x-files? 10 months ago:
That's.... not what the poster was saying. Prestige TV extends much farther than the mafia genre, sopranos was just the turning point when higher budget dramatic things were more commonly greenlit.
The Wire, Breaking Bad, Watchmen, The Expanse Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Mad Men etc all absolutely blow X files out of the water. And while I do love X files, the monster of the week format is not even in the same ballpark as those long form character dramas.
I think you might be letting nostalgia blind you to how great television has become.
- Comment on It's 2023/2024 and Roseanne Barr is now more attractive than Madonna. 10 months ago:
Madonna spent years as a sex symbol, which absolutely takes time, effort and very consenious eating. Not to mention makeup, hair and fashion. What I see in her pic is a streamlined and simple to maintain look.
- Comment on What If: No Social Media Anonymity 10 months ago:
That it would drastically harm queer people and those questioning their identity. Social pressure, fear and shame keeps people from asking certain questions or exploring their desires when it's potentially tied to them for life.
Look at the while concept of "queer appropriation" by celebrities. Their entire life is public and ironically while feeling themselves out and experimenting with new presentations, it's ironically met with backlash from some queer people thinking it's a capitalist ploy to appeal to queer fans.
Being able to just ask questions and explore is a fundamental part of understanding yourself. Anonymity is a precious gift, but one that is also easy to take granted.
- Comment on Quentin Tarantino's 'Star Trek' Movie Would Have Been a "Balls-Out Hard R" Movie 11 months ago:
Either talk about the plot, set a production date or stop writing these nothing articles.
I mean, no duh Tarantino would do a Trek movie that has lots of blood. To be familiar with his name is to know that's his style. Just tired of years teasing how great something WOULD'VE BEEN but not saying why.
- Comment on The Insomniac Hack Reveals The Ugly Truth Of Video Game Hype - Aftermath 11 months ago:
It's either journalism, in which you talk about news that comes up. Or it's being a freelance PR for publishers saying what they want, when they want in order to keep in the embargo ecosystem. Game """news""" sites like IGN aren't, never have and never wkll be actual journalistisc outleets, their hype machine.
If the Pentagon papers can be published, then so can a game companies production schedule. 😂
- Comment on It's dangerous to go alone. Take this. 11 months ago:
Honestly I think the pan, mask and the glasses are kind of a curse? How would I ever know if people actually like ME or just the glasses? All of my relationships would require keeping the glasses on, that's just stressful! How would I enjoy the taste of food or ever try new meals if it's always great? I'd just make the same thing over and over while being content, not actually happy. And if I sleep only an hour a day that's just gonna put me out of sync with the world and lead to loneliness.
The long cool down on the penny is honestly it's best feature, gives you room to still live your life.
- Comment on It's dangerous to go alone. Take this. 11 months ago:
I can cook, sleep and shower myself. And I don't need to run or to have people like me anymore than they do.
So lucky penny and then only using a stock market app every two weeks please!
- Comment on Netflix developing over 10 games in-house currently 11 months ago:
Orly?! I had no idea! And also... no interest in actually looking into those games or buying Netflix again.
Thanks for the clarification! ♥ 💕
- Comment on Netflix developing over 10 games in-house currently 11 months ago:
Wait, what?! 😂 Okay, so is this gonna be a cloud based thing, because how stadia was so successfull? Or are these going to be downloaded apps? Or just stand alone choose your own adventure like black mirrors bandersnatch thing.
I'm genuinely so confused what this means or will eventually look like.
- Comment on Tesla recalls 2 million cars with ‘insufficient’ Autopilot safety controls 11 months ago:
Tesla full self driving is no where close to ready and actively dangerous to any one around it, including and especially the occupants.
But the autopilot is pretty convient and useful. I wish they would stop calling these patches "recalls", it's turning the term meaningless.

Oh absolutely, this is a serious problem for some! I've read enough boar attack stories to know they are a legitimate threat. Cougar and wolf attacks are more common in my area, albeit rare overall. But all three animals are all very different than dogs, cats and pigs. Common ancestors sure, but absolutely very different today.
Of course every human has the right to defend themslevss from animal attack. That's just a very different equation than buying bacon at the super market while ignoring the suffering of a pig that never left it's factory farm.

Fake for any of those wondering.
But keeping employees based on how many lines of code they have written, which he did, is essentially the same logic.
- Comment on Godlike 11 months ago:
Beat ya to it. 😉
- Comment on Godlike 11 months ago:
People have actually said this in full seriousness after seeing my username. Preemptive revenge killing against hypothetical pig attacks is apparently self defense.
It is such odd... "logic", clearly working backwards from the point they want to arrive at.

Roseanne Barr

- Comment on [deleted] 11 months ago:
There is literally nothing political about being trans. Just like there is nothing political about being a woman, being black or being gay.
The only politics is the people that want to limit the choices and freedoms of those (and others) . If you see trans people talking about what helped them as "political" then you are stuck in culture war BS.

And...?
Are you telling me that you eatpork as some sort of... hypothetical revenge? Because even in a hypothetical universe where pigs are top of the food chain, it would still be wrong to imprison and kill them.
Which is why doing this to tiger/lion/bear is also wrong. Weird gotcha.

A pig didn't say they would die for you. It was murdered against its will and then you paid the killer to kill more.
