He's making a general point and you are making it all about Ukraine situation, that isn't what he meant.

He's using the Ukraine situation to justify his point, despite the Ukraine situation effectively disproving the point he's trying to make using it. Kane is, at best, an idiot here.

She sees Veggy and thinks if she gives him the right look he'll put her in one of these topics.

I'm enthralled.Go get a Magikarp and give it a silly name.

How long does it usually take before the later forms of the starters are revealed?

It depends on what Pokemon feels like marketing really. The last stages are rarely revealed beforehand, and its only here or there we get middle stages IIRC.

There's a reasonable chance it won't get revealed until a week or two before the game releases when someone breaks the street date and all the data is leaked.

Then he takes a shot at wokeism by saying people like Putin don't give a s*** about pronouns and safe spaces , they will KILL people. Notice how he says , wake up Sunshine. Like I said , he is suggesting Ukraine is a warning about how serious life really gets with actual bad guys. He wants it to be a lesson to what he views as naive people.

But this is part of the problem. At the moment, Russia's invasion of Ukraine is hilariously failing. The entire thing is showing Russia doesn't have a quarter the Might its been pretending it has, and the naive "left" in this analogy (Ukraine) is showing itself to be vastly stronger than people thought it was. The analogy Kane is trying to make here is just completely wrong.

This isn't "Might makes right", its "your bark is worse than your bite". Kane has a completely incorrect reading of this situation in order to dunk on an imaginary "left" wing boogeyman. It kind sounds like Kane is the weak one.

Resident Evil is definitely a "gamer's game" as opposed to one that's mainstream by your standards. Nobody is buying their PS4 for Call of Duty, FIFA, and Resident Evil.

Resident Evil is mainstream because it has had almost a dozen movies with the same name. The live-action series have their own completely separate niche as a garbage franchise.

... People are probably buying a PS4 for CoD and FIFA though. Though there's also another group for Madden and maybe MLB The Show? Though these groups also likely have quite a bit of overlap.

This. The Souls series is like, the most popular "not mainstream" franchise.

The Grass one is usually what I start with, so its probably my first choice.

Up until we see the final evos and it turns out they all look like furries. Then I'm keeping them in the weird middle stage I guess.

HG has Donphan so it wins. I don't make the rules here.

Like number 1-10 are all pacific islands where there's a huge lack of actual food being produced there and because of it, most of their imports are the really bad cuts of meat that basically nowhere else wants so its where all of the least healthy bits of meat are and so there's a huge increase in obesity.

At least I heard that in a documentary or something once. Not too sure if its true, but it would make sense why #1-10 is Pacific Islands.

When I was buying these games when they came out, I bought White over Black for Reuniclus and Braviary.

I do also like Lilligant, but competing with Whimsicott is much closer.

Luna Lovegood... really?

What am I missing here? I'm not a huge Potter fan, but I thought she was just a kind of weird supporting character who I honestly had forgotten about until this topic.

I heard the movie was a fun popcorn flick that you didn't need to care about too much. Which is exactly what I'd expect to do so well, especially when people are clamouring to return to normalcy, but also too doomer to pay much attention to a lot.

I bet that this movie is going to end up doing quite well. Not everyone wants to watch a "cinematic universe" for every action movie.

Remember when MTG had to hold a whole press conference because she learned the Holocaust happened and it was like, bad?

I'm not at all surprised about this.

I think its just an extrapolation from the player characters always being children. And especially when a lot of the other supporting characters are also generally seen as underaged or otherwise really close (e.g., Misty) it just leads to thinking anyone who isn't very obviously elderly to be really young?

This is my only experience with Gex. Though I think I actually have the game around still, but I'm not gonna play it.

lol even the comments are calling this dude dumb.

Its a bit different if a contract is expiring, WWE didn't fire him, Cesaro left. Still sucks he's going, its crazy WWE never really gave him a chance.

And this is almost undoubtedly a brand new "big AEW signing" in about a month or so. It could even be next Wednesday given the contract expired so there's no 90 days.

Maybe he can be the de-facto face of ROH's rebrand.

At least not for a little while. It depends how everyone responds to Russia's very obvious aggression, and if the NATO (and others) response is significant enough, how Russia will respond to what will likely lead to their already weak economy just collapsing.

We've got some time before the end of the world for Russia to back off, but they don't seem interested in doing so.

The guy is also a Fox News idiot and is spending his time between actually posting news circlejerking about how he doesn't like Biden.

I don't know if I'd believe this guy if it was true.

What's a tankie? I'm not super up-to-date on political online lingo.

From the tweet it kind of sounds like people who think left = anti America, but I'm sure that's not totally correct.

I think most people have more pressing issues to really care if there are gods or not.

Like there are ****ing monsters everywhere.

I mean, its probably technically already started. **** won't be hitting the fan proper for a little while still, but we've pretty much entered it.

Though I doubt we'll be seeing WWII style firefights (with anyone besides Russia + Ukraine) anytime soon.

Leafgreen is the only gen 3 game you could catch Slowpoke in. Meaning it kind of wins off of that.

But otherwise, Firered had better ones.

This is such a weird article. Like it doesn't really provide any evidence that Ed Sheeran is a "Nice guy" instead of a nice guy, it just takes 3 lines from a song and extrapolates the worst possible conclusion they can from it.

This is such an odd hit piece. Like, you can do better than that?

don't

The X1X is actually a bit more powerful than the Series S, but they dont make them anymore. The S is now just an upgrade from the standard Xbox One, but not real close to the Series X.

But the X1X also has the inferior hard-drive and stuff, so all the QoL improvements from the new gen are present on the XSS and not the 1X.

If you are really going to keep a phone for 7+ years the iPhone is probably the better buy for sure.

Its also worth adding that if you plan on using your iPhone for 7 years, you'll almost definitely at least need to replace the battery.

DarkRoast posted...

Yeah, everything but iPhone is USB-C (iPad, Macbooks, etc). And they've already said they're considering moving iPhone to USB-C because Lightning can't meet high-speed charging standards that huge cellphone batteries need now.

I think the reason Apple hasn't gone to USB-C for iPhone yet is they still seem to be aiming to get a portless iPhone.

D

Apple makes very good products for people who don't want to worry about their products. You want a laptop that does all the stuff you need it to really well, and don't want to deal with crap like "is my Windows updated?" or "do I have the right Drivers installed" then you buy a MacBook. If you want a phone that can mix nicely with all the stuff you want, and you don't need to worry about? you can buy an iPhone.

Especially since nowadays, every competing company has just made their stuff more expensive than it needs to be, so there isn't really even much of an Apple tax.

The bad part about apple is every other tech company are also apple sheep, so when Apple makes a ****-tier decision like ditching the headphone jack, every other company feels the need to jump in because now they can also make these blatant anti-consumer moves and nobody will care because Apple did it already and nobody got upset.

Honestly, the villager aspect is the worst part of Stardew Valley. Play Stardew Valley if you like games like Harvest Moon or something, but Animal Crossing and Stardew kind of have different focuses.

Its an alright movie, you can very much tell they gave Zack Snyder free reign to do literally whatever he wanted. You can really tell the theatrical cut really worked against Cyborg, and Ray Fisher being so pissed off about it, given he's basically the main character of the Snyder cut.

That said, it easily could've also been an hour shorter, there's way too much dumb slow-mo, and for some reason Snyder thinks you can't just be a team because you want to, and everyone needs this weird "I work alone" (There's a whole backstory for the Darkseid stuff and Wonder Woman needs to go out of her way to say "The people of earth weren't like, teaming up or anything, they just all got here, separately, for the same reason, to work together, but they were only working together because they were all there and just went "Hey alright", teams are for losers" and the Justice League forms kind of similarly.

And one hamfisted cameo in the middle of the movie literally ruins the movie for me, because its both so completely out of place, completely removes the worth of one of the most fundamental scenes in the movie, and just spits in the face of multiple characters.

Its not great, but if you have the whole night free it's not a bad watch.
