Yeah. I called it a rorshach test earlier but that was wrong. Its simpler than that. Its "do you understand the friendzone phenomenon or not?" This was blatant, obvious, crystal clear friendzone behavior. And its necessary. People who somehow misread that scene miss something fundamental...

Ah, we're back to Schrodingers COVID! Simultaneously so fake it didn't kill anyone, anywhere. BUT also so dangerous it was reasonable to take veterinary or Indian deworming medicine to prevent its terrible effects.

End of last season and beginning of this one were both really weak and weird. And the hairdresser on this show has way too much creative control. The captain and first mate increasingly look like something from the Capitol in Hunger Games. Its right on the edge of too much girl power, and...

Good thing no one around here ever complains about or criticizes women or those of us whose wives are women might leave (In case its not clear: Sanrith. I'm making fun of Sanrith here)

No, its the retconned explanation shoehorned onto him after the fact. The central disagreement between him and Charles stands on its own regardless of this dumb add on.

would be great to get a non-holocaust magneto. It was always the least interesting part about him and distracted from the much more interesting side of his philosophical disagreement with professor X.

Pretty wild how this board went from "covid is just the flu" (which kills people every year) to "your loved ones didnt die of covid" The danger of a disease can be wildly overblown and it still kills some people, especially the old and sick. Sorry to hear about your parents.

Yeah but they need record profits. Do Americans need regular profits? I mean Americans don't even have shareholders!

you've read this rant before. you'll read it again. because apparently fucking Microsoft will never figure this shit out. I've been using Windows what, at least 30+ years? A shitload of different versions across an asston of different machines. And every so often, perhaps a few times a year...

On radiation: as I recall, it worked like this. Their planet had an extremely strong magnetic field that protected them completely from radiation. They never left the planets magnetic field until the trip to Tau.

This is just unwatchably bad, and thats coming from someone who actually liked the dumb premise and watched the whole original series. I'm not sure if the writers have ever watched BBT. Or understand how humor works on Earth.

It really is a little annoying. I don't think theres a single science question asked in this thread that wasnt directly addressed in the short, accessible book.

Eh. Women say shes hot, but women literally said Michelle Obama was pretty. (I know this sounds insane but really, its a widely held opinion among women). Volumes have been written on this phenomenon. They arent saying shes hot because they think shes hot. Beta Gen Z males say they agree...

I'll admit it sounds like a reasonable way to work around it.

Oh, if they *explain* it thats alright. It surely wont lead to a decade or two of raceswapped casting.
