Which is amazing because George of the Jungle could do it.

It can be amazing, but eventually they end up killing everything, and the next big step happens. They end up killing death and various angels and gods after a certain point. That sounds like an anime set up now that I think about it.

There are a lot of campy episodes when they ran out of things to kill. My favorite was the shape shifter who likes horror movies. It becomes like watching Capaldi in Doctor Who. Great actors, some awesome episodes, but the rest isn't up to the standards it should have.

If you actually know the cultures and stuff being talked about, it's obvious the creators just looked at a Wikipedia page briefly and then wrote a script. Sam hein is my prime example of that. There can be some really good episodes that don't quite get it, and then there are the bad ones.

Basically, it's a great show but they run out of things to kill and women think the main characters are cute. You can enjoy it, and recognize a bad episode pretty quickly.

I think that's one of the reasons why so many films fail. They try for a mainstream edginess, and it's quite bad.

"The most common guy is a rapist somehow!" "Yeah, edgy, twisty, look at me being edgy."

It's the practice kendo swords of edgy. All the right parts, no ability to commit suicide.

This is all from the point of view of people caught with a mindset in the 1970's. I am finding articles about how Apple will win the Metaverse war.

You graduated from Costco? Yeah I know, I can't believe it either, luckily my dad was a graduate there.

It turns out one game is just a Skyrim mod.

I knew it had to be something like that, but never heard the other side of the story.

I like to think about the Renaissance. It started after a bad period, and had a lot of feuding city states, but was healthier and more prosperous than before.

Seattle calls the major businesses the empires. You can tell who runs what based on the architecture.

Yeah, I've had other folks tell me this. I only saw it at Uwajimaya in Seattle.

There does seem to be some confirmation bias and selective choosing there. No study is this cut and dry.

Yes, that's why I found the real link. I meant no offense.

The county Seattle is in is named after MLK.

This explains all the articles about the new creators of the game being unable to play it because it's too scary...

There has been a lot of tech held back to slow things down. An engineering friend of mine has pointed out they can't slow down anymore and it's going to rubber band.

My dad is a doctor. We have a rule in my family that we can't talk about upcoming tech with him because he thinks his job is over. Of the doctors I've known, he's actually really knowledgeable if a bit kooky.

So, the smart doctors are scared and the rest haven't figured it out.

Tell him to read Medea and then watch zlDiary of a mad black woman.

The problem is, if you read outside of the hate white people books, your opinion changes. They are demanding that we only read their books.
