yeah great ok cool, just mentally swap ‘cop’ with ‘a lawyer’ and you’re done

and she’s not only magically cured but also gets to live the rest of her life in peace with her digitized dead daughter.

Something about Suletta being explicitly in recovery with visible scars and mobility issues and crutches instead of magically being healed by the power of Permet in a finale that aired at the start of Disability Pride Month made me very happy. As did the wedding rings.

Hi! I’m a lawyer. This fits the legal definition of harm. Thanks for playing.

Not to be too blunt, but countries like Vietnam are insecure—in the literal sense of not being especially secure against foreign adversaries. (Compare to the US, whose only land-border neighbors are close allies.) China directly borders Vietnam and has spent a lot of time trying to claim territory that Vietnam…

One of the fundamental principles of every Gundam show has been that even those that have done the unforgivable are deserving of grace. That the horrors cannot be undone, but to retaliate against cruelty with more cruelty does not fix anything. That’s emptiness at the end of every Gundam series and why I love these…

The happy endings part didn’t bother me so much. It’s the fact that everything was rushed as hell. Basically everything you touched on could have been wrapped up better had they had 6 more episodes, taking the final count from 24 to 30, to fully tell the stories they set up. Instead it felt like some exec came in and…

I really liked this series, probably my favorite in years.

I didn’t hate it (I kind of figured they would go with a happy ending, modern anime really seems to hate a classic Gundam bleak ending). I was baffled by the sudden inclusion of Newtype ghosts out of nowhere. Ericht was at least tied to the Aerial. Everyone who piloted a Gundam suddenly being there was a bit out of…

It was really interesting how Suletta and Miorine BOTH managed to bring the conflict to a resolution through a non-violent action, too. Miorine dissolves the company and sells it to groups on Earth so that the SLA has no entity to target anymore and Suletta just.. DELETES all the machines in a way that’s a little bit…

I’ve really enjoyed this series overall, it’s been great. I’m usually meh on non UC timeline Gundam stuff, Seed was god awful and 00 fell apart in season 2 and the movie, but this and Iron-Blooded Orphans were both fantastic!

God damn I miss RARBG...

If our moral compass is completely subject to our income and class status, then there is no morality at all and she should shut the fuck up about her supposed principles.

I’ve got this little indie novel for you, French, very underground, you haven’t heard of it, it’s called Les Misérables, you should check it out!!!

Shocking news: high earning streamers who didn’t need all the extra money they sold out for to a gambling company, feel uncomfortable when mildly called out on lack of ethics, project their insecurity onto anyone calling them out.

Despite what certain people would have you think, people won’t think you’re a weird misogynist incel for shrugging off a movie like, eh, it was pretty mediocre and not for me. This goes for The Last Jedi and the Ghostbusters reboot, too.

Mediocrity is a perfectly reasonable reason to not like a movie. If you think the actor’s performance was bad, also valid. However not liking a move because the lead is a “woke bitch with a flat ass” is not OK. 

So the N-word if fine, but cis is a slur. A+ work Elon. 

I take it you never used IRC, Usenet, Email, or any other form of internet communication?

This is not correct. I am a reddit mod, and none of our tools have been reinstated or are functional. And it’s not for lack of trying. I’m wondering how we’re “landed gentry” if we do all of this for the love of the topics we moderate—hours of work a week (sometimes hours a day) unpaid. Simply to have organized,…
