    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    Get sheep. Hair sheep. Lowest maintenance farm animal ever. Clear brush almost as well as goats. But they actually stay *inside* your fence. Actually, a fence is almost overkill - you could probably just point and say "stay here". Or if you really enjoy chasing farm animals, get goats.

    The Last of Us

    Sacrificing a kid to maybe possibly save humanity, without trying any non-lethal means, or even giving her a chance to volunteer? Just trick her and kill her hoping for a cure? No, brother, thats fuckin straight up evil. Arent you a little old for edgelording on the internet? Sad. The episode...

    Who died? (Celebrity Deaths)

    Which ones do that? Christianity doesnt. By extension I'm pretty sure Judaism doesnt either, so Islam shouldnt. Maybe some Asian religion? I know less about them.

    The Last of Us

    What bugged me about Joels death. Shooting the murderdoctor was a totally justified act. That what made it such a great episode, he killed like 20+ people and every one of them absolutely got what they deserved. But when his captors get all high and mighty about it like oh no you killed my...

    Wheel of Time

    But what you have to remember is these people are retarded. They saw the success of game of thrones and said "ah, the people want fantasy with tits that subverts expectations! got it!" Following the source material faithfully never occurred to them once

    Marvel Universe stuff

    eh I'm sure they're gonna gay it up somehow. but theyre all the right race and gender or close enough to pass. they look the part more or less. it has fan service from herbie to the ridiculous F4 car. really aside from the genderswapped surfer whats there to hate so far?

    Marvel Universe stuff

    That looks good. And I know its popular to hate on the multiverse these days but I still think the decision to start F4 in a different universe was inspired. It let them put together a version thats true to the source material without worrying that the F4 aesthetic doesnt fit in at all with...

    The White Lotus

    Yeah I mean thats the formula. Ep 1, someone gets murdered but you don't know who dies or who kills them. Then they spend 8 or 10 episodes introducing ridiculous rich assholes you want to die, and people you can imagine killing them. So you spend the season hoping its this one or that one...

    Black Mirror

    Hotel reverie was kinda boring for me but I did enjoy how it just non-stop made fun of people idolizing dumbass old B&W movies. Bete Noire was great, top tier Black Mirror.

    The Last of Us

    As OU correctly points out, viewers don't get the option of supporting good shows. Viewers have the option of supporting streaming services. And 100% of the streaming services are promoting society-destroying bullshit on at least some of their shows. Lets not get high and might about...

    The Pitt

    This is true. I spent a week in a hospital with my dad last year while he was undergoing cancer treatment. Horrifying. I came back and told my wife, if I'm ever injured in North Carolina, I don't care how bad it is. You take me to a hospital in some other state. If I die on the way, I die on...

    The White Lotus

    I agree with this comment in terms of the viewer experience, but its a show about rich people at resorts. Inevitable

    1944

    What makes you think they can't re-use tropes? They've been pretending Indians were peaceful and wise and white men were brutal savages in literally every single Indian story since Dances With Wolves. Why stop now?

    https://undark.org/2025/04/08/melatonin-children-bedtime/ This is a good read about the melatonin epidemic for anyone who isnt familiar. No real new info for those already on board. I think this is going to be a real problem. A powerful hormone with multiple effects, manufactured in a candy...
