Reality

The Empire Strikes Back is definitely not a kid’s movie in my opinion. The Return of the Jedi is more kiddie because of Ewoks.

Even as a child when I first saw Phantom Menace, I thought it was off. Maybe I would have rated the film lower if it weren’t for the fun pod racing segment and the fight with Darth Maul. I think the Star War prequel trilogy excel more on the editing and choreography of action scenes than actual story telling and drama.

Unpopular opinion for the cinephiles, it would be Stalker by Andrey Tarkovsky for me. It’s overrated and it’s just a bunch of guys talking. I wouldn’t have mind the philosophical talks if it weren’t for the pointless long shots that spanned for minutes. And it is not even clear if there is actually supernatural, or scifi or none of those.

The development of AI is literally stealing information.

I don’t know, part of believing in religion is doublethink. Many religious will say “just don’t think about it” when presented with contradicting information. That’s why religion encourages suppression of free thinking.

Chinese base is in Philippines with Philippine governments permission!

Instagram is full of these boring, lifeless AI written descriptions that I am getting closer and closer to digitally upload myself just to beat these silly AI-written slop. There is no syntax in these combobulations. Like, literally no life. Now I know the feeling of the character at the end of Black Mirror episode “Be Right Back” and why one would want something real. If any tyrannical government agencies or secret police wants to torture someone, reading AI slop for eternity will be the ultimate torture to end all tortures.

Really? I thought The Handmaiden’s Tale is inspired from when the theocrats took over Iran and suppressed women’s rights? And depending who you ask, Iranians are not white.

That explains about my work laptop. I swear that I clicked shutdown before I went on two week Christmas holidays!

Okay, this is actually the most unhinged LinkedIn post I have read.

MAGA: Isn’t my citizenship obvious? points at white skin

For every Mandela who won the peace prize, there is Obama, Kissinger, Machado, Amed and even Teddy Roosevelt…

Indian people will tell you that the “Indian dishes” which are popular in the West are not actually Indian. Tikka masala is British-originated for example. Curry is also a specific dish but the word became a catch all term for any Indian food with curry sauce.

Are you from that part of the world? Are your fishermen being driven away by Chinese navy despite having centuries long friendly relations with Chinese fishermen? Did Philippines allow China to set up base within their maritime shores? Did you guys actually ask Vietnamese and Filipinos apart from prepared reading script?

I have NEVER seen US cheese or ham for sale. Why would I? Both EU and Mercosur produce high quality cheeses and hams, and both places prefer their food a lot less industrialized.

Amen. Even Americans will admit their agricultural produce are horrible and covet Irish beef.

The American bases are there out of the hosting countries’ permission. Weird that tankies never mention what Vietnam and Philippines think of the Chinese navy bullying their fishermen, or China not leaving the shoals that is within the 200 nautical mile from Philippines, despite the International Court of Justice ruling that China’s presence in that shoal is illegal. But you know, got to keep flipping the script as an NPC…

Weird that you did not address South China Sea…

True. I don’t remember what they did exactly, but I remember them being disliked well enough for good reasons, that I made a mental note not to buy their products; not that I ever played any Blizzard games, and I have not played Call of Duty since CoD: World at War.
