I know. That was the joke. It's literally a quote from John.
It's not quite there yet, but it's not exactly far from it either. It is in the yellow Caution zone for now. Time will tell, though past action is the best predictor of future action, so it would be entirely fitting if they did.
And that existential threat is?
"That's crazy, ya'll ain't even Mexican"
Sounds like I'll be skipping them. I have more than enough of an anime backlog to keep me entertained indefinitely. I was really only curious if these shows were rare 'must watch' things. Sounds like they're not. 10 years ago I probably would have enjoyed them, but my tolerance of girlbosses is an absolute limit at this point.
Statham is really only good in Brit mobster movies. He's pretty out of his wheelhouse in anything else IMO.
Can anything good come from Nazareth?
To be fair, he didn't play the same trick a third time in Hell or High water, which is coincidentally I'm sure the best of those 3 good movies. I don't think there's a single female character in the whole movie with more than 90 seconds of speaking time.
Elizabeth Olsen also kind of reprises the same kind of ingenue role as Emily Blunt from Sicario, but not to the same extent. Can't complain about the choice of actresses.
See, I don't mind that kind of female character as much. Both of them are portrayed as competent within their narrow fields, but are quickly shown to be very out of their depth when shit gets real. They both try to pull the girlboss thing, get physically and mentally bodied by actual strong and competent males, and have to learn to get over it and rely on the good guy strong competent males to accomplish anything.
On the flip side, signs that pretty much spell out "We love the world more than we love Christ" is a pretty convenient tell that more churches who follow that mindset should advertise. Better to openly know them for what they are than be deceived.
That would be a contributing factor, but you can't fix the birthrate crisis without fixing the woman privilege problem. No matter how prosperous and stable an economy is, any nation that allows woman behavior to run rampant ends up in the same birthrate boat.
Getting rid of geology too?
Fucking lol. Pantywaists getting upset over this are hilarious. It's the most PG attempted rape I've ever seen.
It would actually be pretty entertaining to see that list....updated for a modern audience ;)
And by that I mean just updated to mean laws of anime that have been released more recently than 30 years ago. And not hyperfocused on mecha.
I will say that I've believed for a long time that the people calling others glowies right here on .win are the most likely to be the glowies themselves. Paralyzing the right into inaction out of fear is way too effective and useful for them not to do it.
As for the rest of what you said, that describes a lot of people right here and it's one of the things that makes this place insufferable sometimes.
I think some people suffer from basically wanting the real world to be a lot cooler and more mysterious than it actually is. Modern life lacks any of the real adventure our forefathers, and pretty much all human generations, had to deal with. There are no new world's to sail to or wilderness to tame. There are no monsters in the woods or spirits in the swamp. We've categorized and analyzed pretty much everything at this point, and even the stuff we don't know about, like undiscovered creatures deep in the ocean, we still know they're just animals, not monsters. Real life is mostly commuting and screens and sitting down most of the day. A lot of people are reasonably bored with how tame and predictable and mundane the world has become, but some of them combat this by inventing versions of reality where there are supervillains and plots straight out of James Bond lurking in every shadow. I think it makes them feel good to hold this notion that they're not really just some guy who drives a 2017 Toyota to work to sit behind a screen all day, they're really part of a special chosen few who can see the code behind the matrix and all that. It doesn't help that everyone once and while, some part of one of the theories is kind of correct. Epstein was real. The Clintons really have killed people. Hussein probably wasn't eligible to be President, and so on. But they're bored with that stuff, so they have to keep creating more and more in their heads to not be numb to how mundane and pedestrian the world really is. The bad guys we're fighting are pretty much just dweeby noodle armed kooks who do most of their dirty work with shady emails and laundered money. There's no earthquake machine or space laser. Mind control isn't real. But that's too boring.
You don't even have to go that far. When someone asks "how did he get hundreds of pounds of guns and ammo all the way up there??" and you point out that these

exist, you'll get a bunch of downvotes, but no rebuttals.
Very curious that you downvoted me, but didn't actually offer a counterargument.
That doesn't make them not idiots and shortsighted fools.
Their entire career is going to cease to exist. Voice Actors will be the telegraph operators of the 21st century. They can either adapt in some way and try to make some money off of something related to their dying profession, or they can be out of a job. Opposing AI will fail. The technology is too useful, too cheap, and will get too good very quickly for them to have jobs. They can take their 'but I don't want to sell my identity!' principled stance and go apply to be an assistant manager at Walgreens.
Fucking LOL turns out you actually are one of those whiny little reddit vagines. Can't actually offer up a real argument, just little hidden downvote sniping from the background while crying about those poor helpless artists.
Do you have a point to make?
Personally I don't care about the art aspect. AI is just another tool. Just like the switch from pencils and paper to tablets and e-styli, it's another method of creating a vision you have in your head.
For me the real problem with AI is how easy it is to rewrite history and fool the vast majority of idiots. It will be possible to sell literally any narrative with pictures and video to go with it and people won't be able to tell the difference. There will be history books that show scenes of the 1940s in America with blacks, Mohammedans, troons, queers, and women everywhere and the entire idea that reality wasn't like that will be erased. Picture archival footage of the D-Day landings, or photos of the Apollo crews where everyone is an obese black lesbian, and normies in the year 2048 will honestly believe that was real life. In 30 years, everyone will believe Kyle Rittenhouse lined up 3 homeless black single mothers and shot them in the back of the head, and there will be video to 'prove' it.
Didn't you know? Israel is behind every bad thing that has ever happened to anyone anywhere for all of time.
Good on them. A proud nation of with a shared heritage should be hostile to outsiders coming into their country without putting in the effort to respect the locals and their language and customs. I wish we had that here.
Yep. They carefully tailor the definition and signs of something like NDP to only include male characteristics while excluding female ones, then turn around and 'discover' that it turns out only males really have it.
I wouldn't necessarily call it a hollow reference. He was a main character already relating to Andor since Rogue One. Now if they try to shoehorn Boba Fett or Obi-Wan into it, that would be way over the line. Even Vader would be a bridge too far.
