A good question.
Iremember a post in this thread about a million years ago, pointing out that movie villains are always given complex, traumatic backstories to explain their villainy. But it turns out actual evildoers generally emerge from wealth, comfort and stability...

Can't remember who it was, but a screenwriter posted on Twitter that the most difficult part when writing about a terrorist takeover of a government building is coming up with a plausible way for the terrorists to get in. And then terrorists just... walk in to the Capitol. So sorta like how we have to stop criticising the people who act dumb in movies after seeing how people react to a real pandemic.

Did Trump hire the Cyber Ninjas from Cobra?

Mierenneuker posted:

Where do I even start with this guy.




- He is the leader, a ninja supreme master! But he doesn't even get a code-name.
- Probably a smart decision, since he couldn't think of a better name for his unit than Night Creepers.
- Even though he a leader he clearly works in the field and has probably never heard of delegating tasks.
- He is a ninja, a master martial artist. But he wields a cannon.
- Oh, so the gun can disable computers. But how can you be stealthy if you are carrying a cannon around?
- He wears a bandana to mask his eyes. But he didn't cut holes in it so how is he supposed to see poo poo?
- Slice-proof ninja pants... exposed midriff and upper arms.

Here is some additional lore from the comics:
"The Night Creepers are Swiss bankers who have been highly trained in martial arts, and equipped with cutting-edge technology. These "corporate ninja" mercenaries handles Cobra's bankroll, as well as the organization's most dangerous assassination missions. Unlike the Arashikage clan, Night Creepers would prefer a laser-cut carbon-fiber-composite weapon, to an ancient 13th century blade. They are not united by blood or history, they are only interested in progress and profit."

the original dawn of the dead is pretty accurate too imo

I really need to rewatch Land of the Dead. For a long time, my big problem with it was that the two main bad guys were both driven by an argument over cash, in a world where one guy ran the only city anyone knew of and could therefore print whatever currency he wanted, and the other guy wanted cash before leaving despite having no idea if there was anywhere else to go, let alone anywhere that was using old US dollars as currency. After watching world governements being willing to sacrifice their populations for the sake of The Economy, I really need to see the film again. I suspect my criticism now would be it doesn't go far enough in emphasising how stupid people can be.

The best description of Bibleman I've heard was from David Mitchell, who said it looked like a series made by atheists to make Christians look stupid. Also, I'm no expert on designing knockoff Lego sets to indoctrinate children, but it seems a bad idea to make the baddie's truck look more awesome and loaded with features than the hero's lump of a van.



I guess he needs a van so he has somewhere to show kids his Baton of Friendship.

Wasn't there a conversation about this WRT removing him from the white house if he refused to leave? Something along the lines of "they'll just turn and look the other way while he's removed."
I mean, they're there to protect him from bodily harm, not sitting in the back of a squad car.

Always wondered what would happen if Trump was actually imprisoned. Does he keep the security detail? Are they still armed in a prison?

What's the end goal of this "audit"?

Almost, but not far enough.

I am imagining Donald Trump waiting at the bus stop near my parents house, waiting to take the 771 bus into town for his weekly shop at the supermarket. Him walking through the Supermarket, trying to read the shopping list Melania wrote for him, then carrying all the stuff back on the bus, listening to the old lady Trump supporter who would sit next to him and talk his ear off, only to find that he had got it all wrong. And as such Melania would be sleeping in her separate bedroom. Again.

The amount he would hate that, be physically unsuited for it, and the humiliation he would feel is delicious.

And he has to pay with that card system America uses to further dehumanise people on benefits.

LOL at Gosar talking about Ashli Babbit being "executed" and then other Republicans motioning to adjourn later when Dems are asking questions

Are there possible legal repurcussions from this? Like, it's been determined that the officer who shot her acted within the law. "Specifically, the investigation revealed no evidence to establish that, at the time the officer fired a single shot at Ms. Babbitt, the officer did not reasonably believe that it was necessary to do so in self-defense or in defense of the Members of Congress and others evacuating the House Chamber." So isn't saying she was executed defaming that officer?
