You act like falling is something to be embarrassed about. It happens to everyone, not just politicians or the elderly.
So don't get so defensive then, laugh at it. His head didn't fall off, he didn't fall into a volcano.

I don't know how my mom managed to pull it off but I have an appointment to get my first dose of the vaccine these Wednesday. That's fun.
My mother had her first dose back in january but the second just in april.
The ***part is that wednesday she started to cough and got weaker. Today she did her covid test, and the result was positive...
My stepfather soon should start having simptoms, and so do i soonish.
Good thing though, aside being tired, she doesnt seems that bad. Hopefully it will turn ok.
buy booze and amazing food instead.
also biden will probably laugh about his slip. trump did a toddler walk down a ramp and then went to a rally and spent 15 min talking about how "IT WAS THE MOST DANGEROUS RAMP IN THE WORLD. LET ME TELL YOU WHAT A *** HERO I AM. OK SO IT WAS SLIPPERY, AND I WAS LIKE. OMG NO ONE CAN EVER MAKE IT DOWN THIS RAMP.", just to protect his fragile ego. honestly joe biden isn't my favorite person in the world, but still...
damnit i'm talking politics.
both parties suck. burn everything down!

Yes, lets all laugh at the man falling on stairs. Hilarious.
Isn't that basically the premise of America's Funniest Home Videos? That crap got 31 seasons (and counting). All we're missing is a terrible Bob Saget voiceover.

Actually, thinking back, it's actually crotch shots that have carried the show for three decades.

I don't personally care about any of them anymore from any country, I'm on the black pill side these days. They all suck.
If one of them does something stupid laugh at them, no matter what side they're on. Who cares, actors, politicians, lion tamers whatever.

A surveillance company has created technology via modern cars where they can track you, track where you go and how long you stay in any location. They plan to sell this to anyone, including the us military.
So now, not only can your phone carrier track you anywhere you go (even if you have GPS and wifi off) and again it's their property so they can sell this and give it to anyone they want, so can your car!
Technology is awesome.

Just stick a chip up our butts and put a leash around our necks and be done with it.

I had to explain capitalism to him...
"They" are not going to pay for an elaborate scheme to put a low powered chip in you when they can sell you a device you will always carry with you that not only tracks your every movement but also shows you commercials.

Anyone who ever mentions being chipped. Remind them they aren't important enough to give a free chip to. They willingly pay to have a chip track them already.
If you already give someone hundreds of dollars a month for the purpose of tracking you, why would they give it to you for free.

We used to laugh at China for this kind of nonsense, the thing that gets me is nobody seems to really care and indeed will happily pay for them to be in their houses.
Windows 10, Smart phones you can't take the batteries out of, smart cars, google, facebook, alexa etc. It's not even that you have anything to hide, it's just creepy that they are tracking every single thing you do even when you're not online and just outside in the real world.
As you say, in reality we are already chipped. Many of us never leave our phones at home, we are always carrying them and they're always on and always tracking everything you do and everywhere you go. It's all logged and stored, incase it's ever needed.

First ep of Falcon and the Winter Soldier was totally different (better) than I expected. Trailer was like "this is rush hour". Totally not.

Hi. Occasional discussion of world events is fine. RT becoming the new P+R is not.
Y'all get one warning, and this was it.

I also enjoyed it. I have always been more curious about life after the blip. How if affected the job market, revenue, taxes, etc. Didn't expect it to be this fleshed out in FWS though.

That was pretty soul crushingly
The whole "idea" going forward is going to get pretty real.If they do the whole "dialoging with the bad guy" a lot of introspection of the pros on thanos's calculus.
Dunno, Thanos's plan never really made sense. Okay, so you wipe out half of all life. Unless you also wipe out the conditions that supported the original amount of life in the first place, a sizable portion of all species will recover back to their original number in a relatively short amount of time. If we're looking at humans, it would only set us back to the population we had ~50 years ago.
Unless he planned on snapping more than once and at regular intervals, it was a short-term "solution" at best.

The idea would be that the survivors would realize and not over populate again.
The dirty work would be done and no one would have to shoulder the burden. But obviously that wouldn't happen. See; endgame dialog.

Yes to all of this.
I live in a place without snow/ice and I still want it. It's the kind of steampunk nightmare fuel that is both awesome and terrifying.

Nope, still a stupid plan. Only the intelligent species would think twice about what happened (for obvious reasons) so it wouldn't really affect everything else in the long term. Even the vast majority of intelligent species might not take anything away from it, as how many of them would even know what happened? Poof, half of them are gone, no explanation. It's not like that is going to trigger some immediate realization of the purpose behind it and cause them to conclude that their new population number is some kind of hard cap that must be preserved at all costs, especially given that only a percentage of them would have even hit the point where limited resources were a concern in the first place.

I realize you guys are talking about Disneys MCU,
BUT...
Thanos's plan was to impress Death. He was in love with Death and Mephisto talked him into taking out 50%.
Also, Adam Warlock better be in Guardians 3 GD IT.

A man erasing 50% of all life just to impress a woman? Now that's a plausible motive if I've ever heard one.
