10·3 months agoThe most surprising thing about disclosures like this is how stunningly cheap the bribes are.
Can you do a detail of this? I’ve never made empenada and this looks incredible.

It’s not ethical or unethical—but your framing makes it inherently from POV of some assholes, so it kinda renders the whole hypothetical moot.
People can allocate their assets as they please. Every situation is unique. In your situation, it sounds like the parents were narcissistic assholes with a disabled child.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How Would You Rank Quentin Tarantino's Films?English
2·11 months agoThe older I get, the more Jackie Brown runs away with it. It really is the most relatable movie as an aging adult, where the rest are generally too fantastical by comparison.

3·11 months ago- Jackie Brown
- Django
- Kill Bill The Whole Bloody Affair
- Basterds
- Pulp Fiction
- True Romance
- Hateful 8
- Res Dogs
- Planet Terror
- From Dusk Til Dawn
- Death Proof
Including his screenplay-only credits here.
I have still not seen Hollywood. I imagine it would be below Hateful 8 for me.
Jackie Brown is very underrated and easily his best movie IMO.
Reservoir Dogs is a great film, but in the context of his work, generally overrated. It’s more its own piece of film history than something to be compared to his more mature work.
Kill Bill is tough. I think I could make the argument that it’s easily his best film—but for rewatches, Jackie Brown has it beat handily. It’s hard to rewatch the Kill Bill saga conveniently.
The rest are honestly neck and neck. I think Pulp Fiction is #1 when you’re new, but kinda recedes into itself against his whole catalog.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How is it even possible for Trump to win? How is there so much hatred in the world?English
31·1 year agoHe got effectively the same amount of votes as 2020.
She got 10-12MM LESS than Biden in 2020.
They simply failed while Trump went sideways.

1·1 year agoShe aligned herself with (1) the most unpopular republican vice president and warmonger of our generation, (2) did not distance herself from an unpopular president, (3) did not on any level run a non-traditional media campaign all while watching the Trump campaign triple down on it.
The actual true answer is that it’s only her fault given the opportunity, but she in fact should never have been given the opportunity—Biden should have prepared to be a one term president and give years of lead time for a competent candidate to challenge the very obvious and inevitable campaign Trump ran.
Trump vote totals is sideways. Hers went down 12MM from 2020.
I live in a red state and vote blue. Trump is bad for the country. But the silver lining is that the Dems are now forced to have self reflection that they refused to have four years ago, and hopefully field a legitimately viable candidate in 2028.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When is the last time you changed your mind about something big?English
2·1 year agoI personally split the difference now. I think if the hive mind was completely rational, liberty/ancap must work in principle.
But propaganda, and moreover just how much violence people are raised with even still on average in western households, let alone the insane variance in parenting quality from China to the hyper religious Middle East to the current lead-filled (or micro plastic filled?) brains of Trumpers to the insane gang violence of Mexico and South America to the total rape of the continent of Africa… prohibits there from being any volume of rationality required to make it possible for at least another 200 years.
…except before 200 years we will have needed to solve for all of our global crises anyway to avoid extinction (at least there is a non negligible chance)—and thus some mix of socialism via the state, and the “market” AKA Earth dying, with the occasional bout of rational zeitgeist, is the only way to save Earth and explore the stars.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•In your opinion, what characterizes a good CEO of a medium-sized company?English
2·1 year agoTypically I agree but I believe this was repeat allegations from multiple parties. If it was only one person and it was dropped, maybe he deserves the benefit of the doubt. But fool me twice, shame on me.
That part is less about the justice system and more a likely triangulation of him probably being not so great, at best. Plenty of people got charges dropped or “redeemed” on a technicality who are definitely guilty.

3·1 year agoUnfortunately, that dude was relatively recently charged with SA allegations / rape.
His wife also accused him of beating her.
I believe charges were dropped but it definitely cast a shadow over his public good guy persona.
DOTA splits the difference but it’ll take you 3000-5000 hours to be truly competitive. And everyone wants to be competitive.
When I played DotA 2, a dude who was good also was trying to get me and everyone regular with us into POE.
I took one look at the average hours played on Steam reviews and noped out of there. Also quit DOTA like a week later.

454·1 year agoBecause it’s literally advertising spam. I can’t believe this person would want to ruin the entire good will of Lemmy by pushing their trash.
It simply serves no purpose.
