My mind immediately goes to the Ferengi whenever someone says “females” about women.
These are all the questions my girlfriend asks me all the time and I give her the deer-in-the-headlights look.
I really need her in my life lol
I finally know what inspired that weird Futurama episode!
Maybe it’s similar to how tree sap tastes different after you’ve boiled it down to syrup?
Maple sap has a pleasant, very mildly sweet flavor whereas maple syrup is the greatest thing on earth.
I’m not sure I completely agree. Yes there’s always been silly popcorn movies and genuine, thoughful works of art, but the problem is that the movies that focus less on spectacle and more on story and characters, tend to barely scrape by at the box office.
People pretty much only go to the cinema to see big-budget spectacles nowadays, when back in the day you’d go see lots of different types of movies.
Oppenheimer was the exception to the rule. It was such a breath of fresh air because it was a serious drama with barely any spectacle, but people actually went to see it. I see it as a sign of changing times. Marvel movies are increasingly flopping, and people crave sincerity in cinema again. I have nothing against silly comic book movies, but I don’t want those to be the only type of movie I see.
Try Norway. Our electric companies were sold to private investors who sold our electricity to the EU, and then they sold too much so they had to buy it back at exorbitant prices and the public is footing the bill for their dumbassery.
It’s not as bad as it was a year ago but it’s still about 15 times more expensive than it was just 4 years ago.
Runk means masturbation in Icelandic so that adds another layer of hilarity to this
Yall ever just unwind and smoke 20 cigarettes at once? Relaxes your soul, 20 cigarettes does
Sure, I guess we don’t need writers, painters, visual artists, musicians and filmmakers. I mean, what do they do really, enrich our culture and move our souls? Pff, AI can do that easily.
I’ll just build my own cell tower and become my own ISP, checkmate
Billionaires should not exist at all. I saw a post saying that once you earn $999.999.999 dollars you get a trophy saying “I won capitalism” and everything else you earn goes to taxes. We should absolutely do that
Fair enough haha
English is only the lingua franca for now, but that, as well as the English language, will inevitably change.
Well, what other language should be used? Latin is the language of science because there’s no way we’d ever agree on which alive language to use.
If they’re decreasing their production, it could mean that physical media is ending. If so, that fucking sucks because you can’t own anything anymore
Sony owns the blu-ray format. I’m worried.
My home country (Iceland) has the highest gun ownership in Europe. It’s not much compared to the US, but it’s interesting that we have almost no gun violence. The reason is that we have very strict gun control with thorough background checks, mandatory training and psych evaluations. In addition to that, we have a functioning healthcare system and low income inequality. All these things need to be adressed before the US sees a decrease in gun violence.
In a more direct way, there is video evidence of Israeli soldiers delivering briefcases full of money to Hamas leaders. Netanyahu and his cronies want Hamas to be in charge of Palestine, because the last thing he needs is a competent and legitimate Palestinian government.
