It’s funny how almost 20 million people less than in 2020 voted this time around (most of the missing voters being on the dem side too); people are beginning to realize we don’t really have a say

Skeletor, we want to vote for you so Vance doesn’t win, but stop supporting Hordak destroying Eternia

Skeletor: Hordak has a right to defend himself

That still doesn’t change the fact that China is persecuting Uyghurs in the Xinjiang province.

But it’s not a fact though? You can’t imagine up some fictional scenario and then just claim it’s a fact; words have meanings

Alternatively I eagerly wait for the day South Korea suffers more under the yoke of the Samsung corporation in the form of a cyberpunk future, where people have Samsung TVs cybernetically installed on their heads and have like Samsung universal remotes installed in their hands; “But they can’t see those TVs!” you cry; it doesn’t matter, it’s cyberpunk baybee! Chest installed Samsung laundry machines!

Um, for those of us only just now finding out about this situation, what’s the AI issue here? Did they pirate some of Dana’s work with their AI, or is she inherently opposed to AI and Disney is just using it in general and that’s why she’s angry?

Full details: some people glean implications from people’s posts, I just want to clarify: I don’t care about AI, I’m just lost on what’s happening here (I only just discovered Dana Terrace exists after only just recently watching the owl house and being told about her other works, so I’m curious about if her stuff is being pirated by Disney via whatever AI stuff they’re doing)

Dude 1 out of 100 people died of it and you think that’s low?

People who get infected may show zero or little symptoms, reinforcing the belief it’s harmless, while others literally die.

Yup, not taking the vaccine is like playing rock paper scissors for your life; heck, even if you win your opponent might leave you with a parting gift.

including even COVID

Of course you are; in fact I think it’s more especially covid than ‘including even’ covid.

I personally don’t take vaccines for everything (for example I’m not taking meds for the common cold unless my fever spikes) but covid had a bad fatality rate and a lot of people came out of it with permanent ailments; it was especially deadly on the elderly.

I agree you shouldn’t take meds for every little issue, in fact if you can you would preferably regulate your diet to treat constipation and diarrhea, but covid is another matter. The vaccine has empirically reduced mortality rates.

This except I had people’s phone numbers so I thought I was safe.

I didn’t know who this person was but reading that article it just got worse and worse; yeah this guy was absolutely lousy.

Does that mean the diet versions are unaffected?

You should check what’s been happening recently; villains in all the anime have been renamed ‘Hamas’ and characters who disagree with the protagonist have all been renamed ‘Hamas supporter’

his father was a tool maker

Wouldn’t both his parents be considered a tool maker?

Guessing they couldn’t think of a way of finagling Russian in there too

I remember having an argument about the little mermaid movie years ago; the guy was complaining that a black lady was cast and I had to ask: “what do you care? You’re not gonna watch it”; he looked stunned for a second and then said “yeah but still…”, to which I had to reiterate “WHAT DO YOU CARE? YOU’RE NOT GONNA WATCH IT!”

Like why are grown men complaining about it at all?! We’re not the target demographic!

I’m currently working in the Middle East and speaking for myself, I’m less worried about dying brutally to a bombing campaign by China than I am by my own government, so that certainly plays a role.

I think if the government put some effort towards PR by making some superficial gestures such as not invading other countries or overthrowing their governments it would certainly help improve our image abroad and I could stop pretending I’m British.

What we really need is to convince the global South that NOT being bombed by China is actually an evil orientalist plot to subvert our kindly brutality.

It’s getting very exhausting telling the locals “Oy yoo lot ain’t neva seen ‘ow ‘orrible dem Choinese ca’ be! Would yoo be preferrin’ youse country, yeah? Would youse be preferrin’ yoo be in one a dem ‘orrifying debt traps, or would youse be preferrin’, yeah? A noice Gaaza remodelin’, yeah? Oi think tha choice is an easy one, yeah? Dem Choinese don’ seem so noice now, do they?”

Speaking like a Brit makes my mouth hurt; no wonder they’re so miserable.

Sharpen their edges and use them as shurikens (or chakrams)
