The planet is great. It’s the fucking occupants that are a problem.

Awkward direct translation maybe?

I suppose you could bake a brownie sphere in microgravity. That might be hard to get the center cooked without burning the surface though. Maybe a metal ball as a pan that you could coat with batter.

The thing these arguments never take into account is a fate worse than death.

That’s the point you’re missing.

Think about why someone would prefer the much more likely bear mauling to the much less likely worst case scenario with a man. If you can wrap your head around that, then consider why these women had that answer ready to go with very little thought. Considerations of a fate worse than death is something that women live with from the age where they first notice grown men noticing them. That averages 11 or 12 years old by the way. Maybe younger if their parents were a little more candid with them than the generic “stranger danger.”

I didn’t even dislike Skyler because of her personality or the things she did, she was a great character, well written and acted. I didn’t like the time spent on her b-plot when there were so many much more interesting things going on (in my opinion).

I didn’t dislike her at all at first, because I didn’t start watching the show until season 4 was airing. While I was binging the first few seasons if a Skyler heavy episode came on when I was super keen to know what was going on with Gus, or whatever, I’d just continue watching the next episode.

But once I got to the point where I was waiting all week for an episode, looking forward to seeing what happens with the cartels, cops, etc., that was when I found myself thinking “fuck, it’s a God damned Skyler episode.”

I wonder about that. During the deepest part of sleep does your brain have enough activity to maintain a continuous stream of consciousness? If you go through two sleep cycles in a night does yesterday you die, and you from the first sleep cycle who only dreamed die, and you’re a new consciousness in the morning?

I understand where you’re coming from and I’m pretty much an atheist, but if that happened I would at least consider taking a stroll over to the temple.

I stayed with Sprint through years of them being the shittiest in my area because I was grandfathered into an old plan with free nights starting at 5pm. Just taking non-stop at 6pm like a baller.

I see this as a positive. Instead of being fed content to keep me engaged by an algorithm until I suddenly realize the day is almost over and I didn’t really enjoy myself, I reach a point where I feel like I’m done for the day then I make plans, play a game, read, etc.

Now I read the news, fuck around on lemmy a bit, then actually get on with a “real” day.

Then he did The Pentagon Wars, an HBO movie back when HBO still made good stuff. It’s a true story and I saw an interview with the military guy he was playing. Dude said something like: “I checked out the guy who was playing me and in two previous movies he wore tights.”

If you haven’t seen it, you should. It’s a fucking hilarious comedy of errors about the defense procurement process and design by committee.

I watched the miniseries then the show, and there was some additional stuff I watched also but I don’t remember exactly when. There was a spinoff called Caprica, it was good but never got a second season.

Here is a watch order that includes a couple movies and webseries, but it puts Caprica at the beginning. It is a prequel but I think it would be better watching it after everything else like it was released.

Edit: if I remember correctly Caprica either has some serious spoilers or there are some things you wouldn’t understand if you hadn’t seen the main show, I don’t want to say anything more but I don’t know why they recommend it first.

Same here, I think I started it during the lack of new content after the 07-08 writers strike. I thought it would be a mid sci-fi show I would put on for background then it turned out to be awesome.

I think all his delegates would become unbound and there could be a floor fight at the convention if someone steps up to challenge Haley.

Spices x 2. They’d probably be hard to unload without getting robbed, but then you could buy a nice farm.

Everything else would be useless after a short time at best and get you burned as a witch at worst.
