I don’t care how annoyed this comes off, but if you think 9/11 was an inside job go fuck yourself. You probably also think the moon was fake and Covid is 5G related. There is no point arguing with these idiots, no matter how well you explain the facts they will just pivot to something else. Conspiracy theorists aren’t…

the whole point of this What If episode just became somewhat baffling

I STILL remember telling myself in late 2017 “they’ll come out of this when Dipshit declares war against North Korea for an insulting tweet, right?” And since then I’ve realized, no, he inflamed that completely undeserved sense of superiority and self-righteousness to such a degree that they can’t go back now, because…

It’s all pretty funny until you remember that these people are allowed to vote and every one of their votes counts just as much as yours.

Seriously, online in neutral or left-leaning areas they always bust out that “The Dems drove me away!” bullshit when they’re just some far-right agitator hoping to “pill” somebody.

For fellow non-Americans like myself, I’m going translate this for you.

It’s jazz so there’s nothing stopping them from using the notes he didn’t play.

Well if you’ve got anti-gravity tech, going from “hovering” to “flying around” ain’t that much of a stretch.

I initially thought this was a stupid games/stupid prizes scenario, but the actual story is a horrifically sad nightmare.

Counterargument: He was a big fucking baby from the film world who thought his film cred gave him the right to run Godzilla over everyone who dared push back despite the fact that he knew dick-all about showrunning.

Was pondering this point myself, and then did some extrapolation.

Comparing Week 1 numbers for Space Jam to Week 2 numbers of Black Widow is a bit ridiculous. Of course streaming numbers would drop. The people most likely to pay to stream would do so the first weekend, and they don’t have to pay again to watch it again. The week-to-week drop in the theater isn’t surprising, either.…

Celebrities don’t file these lawsuits because they need the money.  They file them to make a point to anyone else who would be inclined to use their likeness.  No one’s going to do it if they know they will end up having to pay $9 million.

It doesn’t matter if he likes weed or not - seems odd to go into all this detail about his personal beliefs...

I never understood the complain because if something I have learnt in the last decade is that people never move by their own interests, and many of the society decisions and motivations are not driven by own growth but to  harm others, and this is precisely the point of The Purge.

This reflects the lesson I learned from Lost. Speculation is fun, but it’s also exhausting and ultimately leads to disappointment because almost all of it is wrong, which then projects the disappointment onto the show itself.

I’m pretty sure Sylvie set all those charges in order to thin out the TVA as much as she could so that she could get to the Time Keepers. She’d have succeeded in that plan, if Loki hadn’t followed her.

Can’t quite but will comment on the whole “viewers have bigger imagination…” part.

Not to defend the show, which I have similar problems with, but Mobius does mention a “magnified Nexus threshold” to explain how they could now find them in an apocalypse.

I think there’s an argument to be made that irrelevant gendering of categories is unhelpful even at a character level, especially when the majority group tends to be rewarded more, making their award more “prestigious” in terms of actual consequences. In terms of roles, bonuses, and negotiating strength, the “best cis-…
