No, but one of them is a great big tablespoon of MSG. Then much smaller amounts of things like paprika, dried parsley, onion and garlic powder, white pepper… can’t remember the rest but that’s six. Possibly mace is one, like the outside part of a nutmeg?

SupraMario,

That’s mind bending.

People trying to cancel his magestic self retroactively because he sang Baby it’s Cold with Dolly

NigelFrobisher,

Dolly the sheep?

DigitalTraveler42,

Who is trying that for that? Just sounds like dumb right winger propaganda to generate an overreaction to “cancel culture” as usual to me.

Somehow Palpatine returned

Fleamo,

You know I’ve seen every other mainline Star Wars and several of the one-offs and TV shows but I never got around to this one and I haven’t really felt like I missed out.

dasgoat,

Same. I read about it in memes mostly and at some point I was like ‘alright that’s enough of that’.

Zahille7,

You’re right.

This thing again. Palpatine is in a room full of cloning tanks talking about having unnatural powers. Next scene characters mention cloning and dark powers. It’s just Poe doesn’t know how it happened (he’s not omniscient) and doesn’t much care. Fascism returned and he’s going to fight against it, that’s all he needs to know.

It’s explained but the hot take internet reactions missed it. And then memes were created to brag about being to stupid to understand something that happened in a Star Wars movie that a child could understand.

Somehow you don’t understand what things mean in a Star Wars movie. Congratulations!

rimjob_rainer, (edited )

Somehow all efforts from episode 4-6 were in vain and Anakin wasn’t the chosen one again because throwing Palpatine into the death star core didn’t have any impact on anything. Somehow they made everything Luke, Leia und Han achived pointless. Somehow cloning was easily achievable with some dark powers and somehow Palpatine cloned himself and chilled for a few dozen years. Somehow Palpatine was a father and somehow Rei was his granddaughter.

Yes just like my Grandfather fought in WWII in vain because fascism has returned to our world.

Except the fact that evil can return doesn’t actually mean opposing evil is in vain.

Also, you may be slightly not getting the point of Star Wars if you think that we’re supposed to believe Anakin is the chosen one and everyone is supposed to respect his greatness. Yes this is what Anakin believed of himself, but how did that go for him?

Luke was meant to kill his evil father (or rule at his side), it was his destiny. Luke refused that destiny, how did that work out for him? Pretty good until the real evil Empire (the Disney Corporation) came along.

Star Wars isn’t really about making prophecies come true. It’s about rejecting them and finding a better way.

You’re a Star Wars fan, you’re meant to reject the fascist ideals of past greatness, not conform to them! Have a balanced take on Star Wars, not leave it in darkness!

I know from your point of view JJ Abrams is evil, But only a Sith deals in absolutes.

Nalivai,

Counterpoint: several flashy videos on the Internet told me that space samurai wisard films are bad now because there is a mean woman there and no kinky costumes.

RememberTheApollo_, to memes in So that's it, huh? We're some kind of Suicide Squad?

TV show with really interesting premise that is well written, well acted, with great sets:

Streaming service cancels it after the first season and doesn’t renew it.

Fleamo,

RIP ‘Night Sky’ with JK Simmons. What could have been.

RememberTheApollo_,

I was enjoying the heck out of The Peripheral. RIP.

I was just thinking about that show last night and wondering if/when season 2 was coming out, as it had good reviews, great cast, a good plot, and the dialogue was pretty good too.

Went to the Wikipedia page and found out Amazon cancelled it two months after it’s debut. Two months! They didn’t even give it a chance.

Fleamo,

I watched with my SO and googled it right after we finished it to see when Season 2 was coming, thinking it would be a joke “haha only 2 years to wait for the next season” and it had already been cancelled. Rough.

AgentGrimstone,

Well that really sucks. I don’t even have a guess to what’s going on with that ending.

Zahille7,

RIP Carnival Row. I thought it was a pretty damn good show, with excellent actors and good character building.

It hasn’t been “officially” cancelled, but it may as well be at this point.

Fermion,

Wouldn’t you swap the cat and mouse toy positions? You manipulate the mouse toy to in turn manipulate your cat.

Windex007,

No my cat dominates that toy regardless of what I’m doing

Cat should really be above you

OpenStars,
@OpenStars@startrek.website avatar

Bold of you to think that it is you that is manipulating your cat, instead of the other way around:-D.

Fermion,

So would it go Media -> cat -> toy -> you?

dalekcaan,

I hate how the libruhl media keeps trying to brainwash my cat >:(

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA,

Media -> cat -> you -> that one pesky bird -> comrade worm

OpenStars,
@OpenStars@startrek.website avatar

Hrm, that is how I pictured it, but now that we are examining the situation more deeply, perhaps it might go Cat -> Media -> Toy -> You? :-P

variants,

I think we’ll give you some credit and move toy to the bottom

Oh, whoops - but I’m not going to edit that, just leave that little gem in there to find, when aliens discover the earth millennia from now and ask themselves “what were ancient humans like, on this in-ter-net thingie?”:-P.

The_Lopen,

That’s him. I’ve only ever seen a middle-eastern Jesus displayed in my church building once, but it looked much better than this one. I wish we didn’t use this depiction as much as we do.

There is an entire subsection of the population that eats Long John Silvers. They walk among us. You never know who they are. Your cashier at the grocery store? Could have eaten LJS that very day. Your doctor? Your own wife? They could be Long John Silvers patrons without you ever being any the wiser.

We need to START calling out these people and STOP supporting Long John Silvers.

are you suggesting a list. that we track these 'people'?

e. the no fry list

PP_BOY_,
@PP_BOY_@lemmy.world avatar

Yes. We should make them wear an article of clothing so everyone knows who they are. Like a band on their arm or something. And the good people who haven’t supported Long John Silvers in their life get some rewards for being so pure.

Leviathan, to lemmyshitpost in Damn freeloaders takin' all the jobs!

In fascist rhetoric the enemy is always both weak and strong. It’s a real easy indicator that you’re hearing propaganda.

platypus_plumba, (edited )

Not being political here, just thinking logically. Isn’t it possible for a subgroup of a large group to do X while another subgroup of the same large group does Y?

I’m not sure if these options are mutually exclusive when it comes to large sets of individuals.

This is just logical thinking, I have no statistics and this is not a political stance.

defame,

That was my first thought as well. Assuming a large enough amount of immigrants, they could be overwhelming both the welfare system and the job market. A sufficiently large group of additional people would overwhelm every system, and depending on the preexisting conditions, that group might not need to be all that big

platypus_plumba,

They do a great job of hiding the fallacy by placing a single individual in the photo and saying “immigrant” instead of “immigrants”.

I’m not sure about American law, but something tells me that it’s even possible for an individual to do both things.

UnfortunateShort,

It’s kinda hard to overwhelm the job market tho, at least if the economy is growing. In that case, more workers would likely facilitate growth, since the growing workforce will also have money to spend and create demand. If the market was already very competitive, things would be different, but developed countries are usually hungry for skilled workers. Demographics dictate this will only become more true as time passes

platypus_plumba, (edited )

It’s a pretty complex situation, I really have no position. I just think I’ve seen some funny things like:

  • “low-skill jobs is a myth created by the rich to justify low wages”

and then others saying:

  • “Illegal immigration doesn’t affect the average wage of Americans because immigrants go for the low-skill market while Americans go for the high-skill market”

Which is pretty similar to the meme.

Exosus,

I guess that explains how republicans are incompetent but also easily destroy the country during 4 years in power

JoShmoe, to comicstrips in Little Caesar's [beetlemoses]

Little caesars is just greese and cardboard. Their dough is cardboard, the sauces are greese, the menu is colored greese on cardboard, the windows are cardboard.

OrderedChaos,

Greek or grease? We’ll never know.

CobblerScholar,

Yes, absolutely yes and it is also unironically my favorite pizza. Or at least it was, even they gor hit with the shrinkflation bullshit

JoShmoe,

Ugh we can’t even have greasy cardboard without the economy downsizing it.
