A much better movie!

I was looking for this comment. Brings back so many good memories of the early internet.

Same thing happened with cable decades ago.

The public TV was full of ads and bad programs. Cable offered you pay them for no ads, good series and new movies. Then the prices rose, then the ads started, then the programs turned to shit as much or even more than before.

Streaming just went the same path.

No wonder his name was Samwise

His power only works in his forest. Outside it he would be no better than a common man.

And even him wouldn't be able to destroy the ring by himself, even on his forest.

In the books Gandalf and Elrond dicuss having Bombadil take the ring, or hide it in his forest. It would just slip his mind and end up worse than before

Quote from the book

No,' said Gandalf, 'not willingly. He might do so, if all the free folk of the world begged him, but he would not understand the need. And if he were given the Ring, he would soon forget it, or most likely throw it away. Such things have no hold on his mind. He would be a most unsafe guardian; and that alone is answer enough.'

Also, all Americans are furry and so, attracted to each other and either viewing or being viewed as the big foot

Especially the Israeli (transported to another world) genre relies heavily on that to quickly explain what you can expect.

Are Israeli anime like isekai, but with Jewish undertones and/or mythology?

Harder, better, faster, stronger

Amazing! And she looks so well-behaved!

Can we fix this comment for the whole lemmy instance to read?

The issue with your example is that black men are not in a position of power in society, while men (as a whole) are the dominant gender in society.

This makes making fun of men punching up, questioning their power, while making fun of black men in specific would be just racist.

Can't a simple answer be: "You're wrong" ?

All it takes for evil to win is for good people to do nothing

It is made by scientists. The problem is that said scientists are paid by investors mostly, or by grants that come from investors.

Didn't see it in the thread, but aqueduct are pretty fire. They allowed empires to grow large and far away from a source of drinking water. Also improved sanitation allowing people to live longer and healthier.
