i really hate that shit where they intentionally cut the movie in a really shitty annoying confusing way just to make the story ostensibly more cOmPleX rather than just writing something good and relying on its strength like a normal good film
Essentially the people have the ability to go backwards or go forwards in time. To go back or forward in time you need to go through an entrance, red means forward, blue means backwards. Their weapons and bullets have the ability to do this by themselves. The bad group wants to acquire the original source of this power and rewind the entire earth to undo climate change, the good guys believe this would destroy the world instead of saving it. The protagonist is the creator of the group in the future, but sends his associates back in time to recruit his younger self and put an end to this group. The main way they attack in this movie is by one team attacking at one point in time and another team attacking backwards in time. Eventually, the bad guys get all parts of this source and begin the process to reverse all of Earth, but the protagonist wins in the end. This is when its revealed he recruited all these people in the future to save the world, making the ending also the beginning.
I kind of understood it, until the ship scene near the end, when there were two Debickis going FORWARD in time, slightly offset from each other. If they can do THAT, why not do it all the time? Why make people go backwards in time, breathe inverted air, and none of the protagonists have a grasp on what’s going on anyway?
What pissed me off is that in a time travel movie where the end is also the beginning, the climax should be the opening scene again (the theater assault) but now viewed with more information showing how the whole loop tied up.
Instead we just got some bang bang explosion shit because someone gave Nolan too big of a budget and he he was damn determined to use it after being inspired by his rewind button on his VCR.
I was going to say Snoop times Willie Nelson, but then I realized that would just be a permanent catatonic state, which isn’t very conducive to the creative process…
It’s anti-semitic to ask you to stop killing children who lived their whole lives unable to leave their borders and were not even born when Hamas was “elected” in their reigon?
Is it anti-semitism to advocate to stop a “war” which you waged against a besieged province inside your country which you are controlling their water, electricity, food, fuel, and all natural resources, and starving amd killing and crippling for all life children and women who are over %70 of the victims?
I mean that was definitely my complaint. Dude. You want a denim keyboard make it happen, this weird low effort crap mangled generated image crap ain’t it.
Keep image generation for porn. Leave my shitposts real.
I live in America. Where does the notion that Americans don’t queue come from? For most things where people are served one at a time and more than one person wants to be served, people queue.
It comes from living in America and being around and previously working at places that may have a system where lining up would work well. Granted, the area I’m at has a large tourist population but that are mostly all Americans from out of state. It’s anecdotal evidence. Maybe just my city or something.
@yamapikariya I feel like there's a distinction to be made between Americans _visiting _a city and the people that live there.
For instance, when I lived in the SF Bay Area, ques for services locals used were efficient and well-ordered unless jackass tourists were involved. IIRC (it's been a while), everyone standing on the BART escalators would be on the left, leaving the right half of the escalator for people in a hurry to walk up or down the stairs. But mix in a few American tourists and it was just willy nilly people everywhere.
7:00 AM? All locals, everything is good. 1:00 PM? Good fucking luck.
Tourists also don't seem to understand or CARE that the city they're visiting has to run somehow, and they meander around on the sidewalks oblivious to everyone else like they're in a theme park.
TL;DR - - Americans know how to queue, they just don't do very well when they're out of their element in unfamiliar places.
Honestly I’ve met some British tourists who didn’t queue very well on vacation either. There are just so many more Americans tourists in many places that we overwhelm many other countries asshole tourists.
I’m not trying to say Americans aren’t shitty tourists we are most definitely shitty tourists.
In fairness, we queue when bollards are put up, maybe even based on paint on the ground. It must be declared though
We lack the natural instinct to queue though. If you have an ingress or ticket booth, lacking direction, we form a mob that filters in rather than a queue. At best, we might queue at a store opening if there’s many hours to wait
That’s my experience, too, and we got it from the British. Sure, there are line-skipping jerks, but they’re socially frowned upon. Compare this to somewhere like Germany where people were constantly skipping lines and nobody seemed to care.
Jesus fuck, you wonder why everything smells like mildew, it’s because they ball up in the wash and don’t rinse properly, and then they stay balled up and damp in the dryer.
I pick them out of the machine and put them into a dryer or set them out to dry. Seems to avoid part of this particular problem.
If we’re out here handing intructions, you preferably shouldn’t uses a dryer for your stuff anyway. It can damage them. Especially everything that’s supposed to be elastic.
But then again, I don’t always follow that rule. Some stuff with an elastic band I’ve put in a scorching hot dryer for close to a decade and it’s fine. Some garbage shit lose the elasticity after a year or so even though you’ve washed them at 30 and don’t ever put them into a dryer.
Do you wash only a single fitted sheet or duvet cover at a time? Because the problem still happens when I wash my fitted sheet and normal sheets in the same load.
That can happen, but I find that if you separate the sheets as they are going in, and kind of scrunch up the fitted sheets and duvet covers so they don’t start wrapped around the flat sheets or blankets, then they are far less likely to ball up in the wash.
I had a roommate in college that would wrap his sheets in the fitted sheet (along with other laundry) and throw it all in like a package. His laundry always smelled like mildew.
Or just get some laundry bags. Its honestly so much easier to just shove the offending item in a bag, throw it all in the wash, then I don’t have to care about it until I take it out of the dryer. Come in handy for other items that love to ball up and evade washing.
