I'm sorry I thought I'd already blocked your ignorant ass

You didn't address shit, you said 'were better than theirs' and left it at that.

Your word, from someone who sat in this corrupted chain of command, should be all I need to trust that you're the best? That's gonna be a hard fuck you from me.

Your attitude toward this is exactly why you shouldn't have jurisdiction over it.

So you've already made up your mind and don't care what facts and testimony is presented to you?

I hope you see the fucking irony in that.

Those were right wingers though, the were just trolls that were trying to convince the left not to vote so they would win.

I wonder if you realize you're commenting on a reply of someone telling a story about how one wasnt even investigated and then the rapist was promoted after doing it again.

There's plenty to criticize in our civilian justice system, but that doesn't mean there isn't plenty to criticize in our military justice system. This is one of those things, the military is notoriously bad at handling sexual assault cases.

I didn't mean to imply you were the only one, just that your brief awareness of it was miscategorized.

Well you really missed the entire point of the show and summed up your ignorance of it pretty aptly.

It's about way more than your surface observation. If you've been through addiction then it's probably a show that will really resonate with you. The aim is not to watch adults pretend to be teens, it's to watch people you can sympathize with, go through an incredibly difficult age and deal with a collection of problems that you've had before. If you've been through drug culture and made it out the otherside, you will recognize a lot of the characters as people you've known, or been.

It was, but not for the reason you think.

FATWS suffered from heavy edits to remove a plot about vaccines and manufactured disease during covid. I understand why they did it, but it hurt the show and would have been better left in.

She-hulk and secret invasion are actually good shows that a bunch of vocal fan boys won't stop crying about because marvel didn't do it the way they would have.

She hulk is probably my favorite production of theirs, and ive literally seen everything theyve done. I'm a big fan of bryne's runs from the 80s and the show really nails the flavor of those comics. Shulkie's fourth wall breaking isn't just aimed at the viewer. She would frequently argue or call out writers, artists and editors from her panels. She would break them and dump them off the page. She would question why they drew her in a skimpy costume on the cover that she was never seen in throughout the issue. The show gets that and executes it well. When she goes back to the disney+ screen and crawls through the BTS doc to go find Kevin was perfection. It's exactly what I would expect from the Jen Walter's that I grew up reading. Marvel knew which parts of the fanbase would hate her and made them the villains, of course it pissed then off. It was supposed to. If you saw the forums plotting her demise and saw yourself posting there, you just outed yourself as part of the problem.

Secret invasion suffers from a different problem.

Think back to Age of Ultron. Was that a close adaptation of the titular comic event? No. What about civil war? Not really. Infinity war? No Adam warlock, no Death worshipping Thanos trying to impress his love, so no. They have a consistent habit of naming the movie for the most recognizable, or marketable, event and adapting the characters faithfully while rearranging the story to fit their needs. Which is a good way to do it. I don't want to watch a direct adaptation of most comicbook storyline. I want to see a fresh take on it, I've already read those issues.

So everyone went into Secret Invasion expecting the comicbook storyline, which was stupid. It didn't track with their naming convention or how that story would make sense in the current state of the MCU. Theres going to be spoilers ahead, but the last episode aired almost a week ago so I doubt anyone who cares will be surprised.

Spoilers end her and we enter into my wild speculation.

We know that thunderbolt Ross will be the president, and we know who will be on his thunderbolts team. Who are they? Huh, mostly supersoldiers and spies, and a big change up from their comics lineup. I expect Ritson and the vp will leave seats vacated, through death or betrayal or some other means and Ross will assume command as next in line, however far down they have to go to leave it to him. He puts together that team to hunt down more skrulls.

In short, I think the payoff that everyone wanted will be in Thunderbolts and this was the prequel.

That's awesome! You guys have done an amazing job

I don't care what they do, but I'm not going to encourage anyone to go back there. Certainly not over fucking r/place, that shit was always lame

Are they really that complicated though? He did most of it on television where we could all watch it, and has bragged about it repeatedly, again in public. If someone gets a DUI, while livestreaming their drive and posts all over social media about how they were "fine to drive that night," and "only had a few drinks", that wouldn't be complicated. It would be an admission of guilt that sealed their fate.

No, fuck place and fuck reddit. Quit going back there and giving them traffic

They keep coming back with these headlines, but they all look the same to me, "Trump did thing that we all already knew he did!". Fucking get on it then and charge him

Tim curry is just the fucking best

I just started reading that this week!

It seems like they brought it back to drive up traffic. They know people will put those things on it, but they can edit all they want and going over there to "protest participate" still drive traffic to their site. In 6 months when they tell investors how successful the last place event wad, no one is going to want to see the final picture, they're just going to look at the numbers.

Place was stupid when we were on reddit, its sure as he'll not worth going back for

Yeah there's a handful of intentionally misnamed subs on reddit. Theyve all got their own story of how it came about. The one I always remember is trees is about weed, and marijuanaenthusists is for actual trees

I vote for c

I was a mod on reddit for a few years. There was a very small sub for a cartoon/toy line I liked as a kid and the community was shuddered because there was no active mod. I didn't think it would get much traffic and I was right. Once I got it back opened we'd have maybe 6-10 posts a years, mostly toy collections. It was super low effort to me, I had one t-shirt spam I had to remove and a few comments, so it was worth it to have it open again. It'll close when I finally get around to deleting my account

It's not here, but you can watch the pbs newshour on YouTube for free, or you can stream the audio over your phone (I use spotify, but I'm sure it's on other platforms too).
