Oh this is easy to prove. See life is disapointing. If it were all made up by my brain I’d have all the sex and never be rejected and the bank account would have a lot more zeros in it printed in black.

Also I have no impuse control, theres not a reality where my brain would invent pizza and not let me eat it 24/7.

So plastic is made from oil, right? And oil is made from Dinosaurs. So we’re just surrounded by Dinosaurs. Even micro-Dino’s.

Is this their revenge?

Bollocks.

This is absolutely true. My former employer (a big box retail company) reduced my pay while I was on holiday. I had been there for years and accrued a bunch of pay rises - but the company got bought out and the new owners thought they could strip me of these because they felt they were temporary and non-contractual.

I got some legal advice that basically said they can’t do that sort of thing and had a meeting scheduled with HR. I went in with my notepad, I stayed calm - pleasent even - no angry shouting or slamming tables with fists, I just politely asked them questions and wrote down everything they said, then read their answers back to them to confirm thats what they said. I had about 6 questions prepared and by the 4th they were visibly uncomfortable, it was an amazing feeling making them squirm like that. After I got done asking my questions, I dropped the legal advice I had been given on them and it was obvious the answers they gave supported my case very heavily. They panicked and reversed all there decesion plus I got back-pay.

But if the first thing I had done is charge in making accusations and quoting the law I know nothing constructive would have happened.

See the goal is to bury them in their own words.

Edit: predictably the company went bust the next year. So long Office Outlet!

He speaks the true knowledge

Is that… a smokers pipe in a holster?

Another male power fantasy where one man solves all the worlds problems using only violence and everyone around him is amazed.

Oh! And its ok when he does it because he was trained by a super cool secret agent program you guys don’t know about they’re in another school.

They are everywhere. I’m a microplastic and think its too much.

I can’t live, if living is without you - I absolutely hate this song. One of the worst sentiments ever.

Now playing Exmilitary by Death Grips

Thank you for your comment it was thought provoking.

I definitly agree with “The film also showed that Oppenheimer himself was naive, thinking that “better I do this than evil men” assumes you can control what you build after you build it. The politics was the battle for control of the bomb, and the realisation that he lost that control as soon as it was complete.”

But as for how I personally view the event… I went to see a movie and in how I personally view a movie it failed to justify its length and its non-linear presentation.

If I consider the event, I view it as a fixed point in time, something done that cannot be undone and arguing for or against it is tangential. There are lessons to be learned, like what you have pointed out that I agree make a compelling case study. But if that was the takeaway from Oppenheimer, then you just did a better job of telling it than the movie. Short, succinct, to the point.

I did not need Florence Pugh to be riding his dick at a commitee hearing to get that the hearings were uncomfortable, y’know?

I… didn’t enjoy this one. Two white dudes fussing over their reputation across three hours of meetings. In a non-linear style.

The biggest issue I have with it is myself. I wanted a story about problem solving, in this case building, testing and deploying the first nuclear weapon before the nazis and I didn’t get it.

I know I should review a film for what it is trying to be and not what I want it to be but I just couldn’t with Oppenheimer. It felt like it was trying too hard to subvert expectations and keep me engaged with a lame duck parlor trick, and it could have been so much better.

No issues with the acting, cinematography though.

He’s interviewing Mr. Pipes now

Hello Metal Detectors perhaps you can help me: I’m into all sorts of music and I’ve listened to modern day metal.

What confuses me is that Led Zeppelin has also been described as Metal and Heavy Metal. I listened to Led Zeppelin 4 and it has accoustic folk songs on it.

So I guess my question is when did todays metal start to sound like metal? Is there any connective tissue with Metal in the late '60s / early '70s and now?

One?!

You mean one from (almost) every year right? With the average scores from Rate Your Music for comparison? I never leave the house without mine.

…sorry for the wall of text.

I don’t watch TV all that much anymore, I don’t know where to start so I just wait for something to ‘blow-up’ and be something everyone talks about then I’ll know what to do.

I work full time so normally after work I just fall down the youtube wormhole so my shout-out goes to Red Letter Media out of all that.

The only TV on my to-do list currently is ‘Barry’ and ‘Silo’
