Nepotism obviously existed before capitalism, and it will surely exist at some level in the next economic system, but it's not an either/or. There are many, many problems with capitalism that would probably still exhibit if nepotism somehow immediately ceased.

You don't vote for president directly in the US, you vote for your state to send its votes to that ticket.

Nothing anybody will explain here will be as good as a quick video. I suggest searching your question into your search engine of choice

"because they take things literally" works better in my humble opinion.

It just needs you.

Advertisers can have that one for free.

Absolutely. It's a public safety issue. Just don't come off as rude and they should appreciate it too

The originals were fantasy. I's not a hot take, it's fact - Swords, wizards, castles, knights, the heros journey. Some of the other shows and media since departed from that. Mandelorean is a western, solo was a heist movie, and most the shows don't fit the fantasy tropes that well. None of Star wars, to my knowledge, fits sci fi at all.

How do you think it works for PC games?

Why wouldn't this be fine? You met at 23. It's not like you were groomed from childhood. Strangers on the Internet cannot validate your relationship with this man. Only you know the details that can inform the decision you have made to befriend him.

Please consider how much credence you give to the opinions of others, especially considering that you feel as though your friendship shouldn't exist at times for absolute nonsense reasons.

Wait a minute. Did I just convince you it's all fine? Don't listen to me. I know nothing. Stop listening to strangers about things they don't understand and think for yourself. You got this.

The post is the exact format chat gpt uses to provide lists. You are right on the money with this one.

Bad physics. Totally pulls me out of immersion.

No, Captain America cannot lean back and hold a helicopter that is lifting off. It doesn't matter how strong he is - he will be lifted once there is enough force generated from the propellers. Basically anything Batman does that involves gravity in the Nolan films is similar.

The magic I can get behind. The mutant stuff or dragons or even time travel in superhero movies doesn't bother me. It's the lack of sensible mechanics on an alleged Earth that I'm bothered by.

Click bait article titles? I get it. Click bait lemmy post titles? Sorry but downvote.

Also my first thought was also the hope of removing tax filing. Oh well.
