Uh it’s pronounced “Paramount+”, thanks

its a freakin’ superhero movie. You may as well be asking why Luffy could stretch his arms out so far without breaking bones.

Here’s a real question: How could Superman?

I know

He’s super

but

Democrats, the reason we lost is that we didn’t singularly campaign to Republicans in Detroit. That is the only deciding vote. 20 Republicans in Detroit. In 2028 it is TANTAMOUNT that we knock on 1 Republican door in Pennsylvania and 15 doors in Detroit.

I can think of one or two but thankfully I’m doing Friendsgiving this year.

Star Wars Outlaws was a lot of fun. Nothing ground breaking but, it was a decent game.

We need Star Trek: The Nextest Generation where it’s all just horny salamanders making salamander babies that slip into the water real quick when anyone shines a palm light on them.

By technobabblecality, there is also a case for claiming Tom Hardy playing Picard

👀

this (mind you, single country made of disparate states) was only contentiously “settled” about 300 years ago—Europe has had a pretty consistent and coherent cultural thrust for thousands of years, regardless of various clan-based spats, and a consistent build up of infrastructure to match. The US is the product of stolen land, a whole lot of racism and slavery and then being thrust into the center of the world stage right at the point when means of conveyance drastically shifted from ships and trains to planes and cars. the end result is the completely horrific infrastructure of the modern US landscape.

that’s part of it, but also the continental US is massive and divided by two pretty impactful mountain ranges. Not defending our lack of train infrastructure but we came of age pretty much in line with the rise of the Jet era along with our culture of individualism and the massive expansion of public interstate hiways due to one specific president’s expierence as them being useful tools for self powered land based military vehicles so obviously that was prioritized over investing in new rail infrastructure in the interceding years.

Point being, there’s a lot of spinning plates involved with why we are where we are in regards our national rail network—would be nice to hop on an hourly train and zoop from Boston to LA in 6 hrs for like $50 but we also just elected Trump again for incomprehensible reasons so in all likelihood there will be a nuclear wasteland in between those two cities, which will need additional plates to be spun up to deal with.

I can tell you now she will not follow through on this promise.
