Just Stop Oil supporters found not guilty in petrol pump case
  • The damages a small group of people can do to a few gas pumps is far far less than the damages they are trying to prevent. It's terrorism in your head because the corporations are operating "business as usual", but business as usual for a lot of industries is eco or economic terrorism on a mass scale. If rules only exist for the poor, we need to find a way for society to course correct those who will continue to do the world harm.

    How else can we make a difference? Calling a representative? Voting? Sure, but our voices are farts in the wind compared to ThE aLmIgHtY pRoFiT mArGiN, even for politicians

  • What's your thoughts on Sony pushing PSN down on PC gamers' throats?
  • Make it a carrot, not a stick. I signed in with me gog account for cyberpunk 2077 just fine because I wanted a jacket and it was 100% optional

    I'm so sick of companies doing things to maximize numbers rather than for the sake of making the best experiences. Capitalism doesn't work, our data is worth more than our loyalty now.

  • Soap operas are able to keep a coherent storyline though
  • Yeah, thank you, I think that's a great way to describe it. Do you think season 5 was significantly worse in this regard? Or perhaps I'm just remembering it better since it just came out.

    Either way, I totally agree with you. I wasn't able to connect with any of the characters or storylines because they were so hollow and superficial

  • Do 9-5 jobs still exist in the U.S.?
  • I work in tech. Most people I work with pick their own hours but are in office during core hours (10-4), some (like me) will do a pretty strict 9-5, I've seen some do 6-6 (eew). There's def a type of people who do more hours to try and get ahead or impress, but I don't think it's worth it.

    I think if I ever worked somewhere with strict arrival or departure requirements I would leave. I'm an adult and work will get done, too much external control will strangle that.

  • Soap operas are able to keep a coherent storyline though
  • I liked seasons 1-4 quite a bit. I was never against the more inclusive and emotional trek, but season 5 was way too over the top. Every episodes arc was about being 'good enough' and knowing yourself and love/friendship. After watching the finale I was legit angry, season 5 easily gave me GoT Season 8 vibes, or Wheel of Time season 1 vibes, just wrong and for the wrong reasons.

    Hell I even enjoyed the heck out of Prodigy and still found this season of Disco too ugh

    I feel like a jerk, thinking it's too 'woke', but I don't think that's really it. Idk if I'm smart enough to find the right words, but boy was I upset after watching the finale.

    That was like 2 minutes of laughing randomly and embracing awkwardly. Wtf.

    Cool gazelle at the end tho. Better than Avatar 2
