I said we vegan tonight.

An aside, since I'm already talking about education. Currently; functionally every teacher in the province is on strike. Support staff too. My brother is actually part of the common front union. The CAQ has been pitching literal jokes of offers to teachers and nurses: pay hikes that don't even...

Alright, let's recap some CAQ history! They passed bill 40: which reformed the school systems, removing... democracy, and instituting functionally all control of policy and curiculum from the department of education in quebec city. It Immediately devolved into lawsuits and screams of...

Soundwave and claw, wheeljack and gadget, Wheelie and penny, The chief and an exasperated ravage cause every situation is just ******* ridiculous. Conversely, every episode ends up exactly the same: Soundwave is begging claw to pay attention to the little girl, and claw is summarily ignoring...

Yeah, but it's not just that autobot don't fly, they also don't tend to take flying vehicle modes either. Literally allowing the war machines to always have a tactical advantage.

And you're entitled to your opinion. At least you're willing to try more than once, which is a refreshing change from the norms of the internet where people don't even partake and judge it anyway.

I mean... just finding the corpses of some of the hostages, and hamas leadership going on record saying "we're going to repeat the oct 7th attack" was enough for me. But given they have a history of violating the agreements they make... yeah. I think it might last longer than back in 2014...

Yeah, but will hamas? I suspect every time the IDF is forced to actually defend itself over the next few days, it's just going to be blamed on militants that were out of control and used as an opportunity to farm rage on the international stage.

I mean... he can jump real high. Anyone can launch themselves into the air, the only question is how well they do it. And there's a "wheeljacks a stoner!" joke in there somewhere.

At least he got out the burr in the rotator.

The way the movie presented it: egon tried to explain it to the rest of them, but they couldn't follow his reasoning, so they... ignored? him. It wasn't very clear, it kind of made it sound like egon had gone as close to raving mad as man who collect mold and fungal spores could, so they just...

In a capitalistic society: corporations owning planets is an inevitability. Because, after all, it's just real estate.

Privately funded space exploration ends in the lightspeed trap, if only because consumerism and profit will always precede technological advancement. Course, publicly funded space exploration might very well end in the lightspeed trap because of bureaucracy and red tape.

For a non-profit to be viable; there needs to be massive amounts of extant "space" infrastructure. We're not there yet, and unfortunately a for profit model right now will be the most effective means of researching and bringing down the costs of space flight. There is absolutely no doubt that...

Shandor's cult had largely collapsed by the first gozer incursion, The biggest problem in afterlife was time, distance, and money... as always. Oh, and the work of a cult that outlived the cult itself.

He hopes to use his wealth and fame to bully the courts and economy into doing what he wants them to do. This has nothing to do with media matter, and everything to do with precedent.

Yeah, exactly. It was a goal he had to achieve, otherwise everything else was pointless. The problem was that he wasn't capable of doing it alone, but by the time he desperately needed his friends and family: he had burned those bridges trying to save them.

My take away from afterlife was that egon tried to get the rest of them to follow his planning, but they were kind of hung up on the business side of it, rather than the existential threat side. Don't get me wrong, I understand both sides of it. "Guys, this is going to kill us all... in about...

Right up until the autobots couldn't fly... Except the ones that turned into planes... and then only in vehicle mode. I don't remember, did superion fly in G1? I know he did in some of the IDW comics, but I honestly can't recall.

I mean... what's the worse that could happen?
