Sorry about that transporter malfunction.
Pathological monsters!
Ooof. X? You sacrifice your mental health for the good of the many, Sir. I offer you a Spock for your efforts.
The "obsessively fixate on collecting Transformers and video games" quadrant.
You've clearly never had the transcendent experience of shitting in the woods. Or behind a dumpster at the Circle K.
Then why is the bill about DIVESTMENT of Tiktok from Chinese ownership? The operation headquarters are in Los Angeles and Singapore. I'm beginning to think you don't know what you're talking about.
60% of ByteDance is owned by global investors, most of which are based in the US. 20% is owned by the original co-founders, none of whom have any ties to the CCP, and the remaining 20% is owned by employees, almost all of which are in California. The overwhelming majority of the company is already owned by Americans. This entire thing is all about trying to silence a source of information that challenges and refutes government interests, particularly where Palestine is concerned.
You do know that the overwhelming majority of investment and control in TikTok is already based in the US, and the only Chinese national involved with the app was the creator who already cashed out and retired a long time ago?
Dude looks like the love child of Odo and Burt Reynolds!
Can we take a moment to appreciate how Metroid II really did the groundwork for what Super Metroid perfected? I don't think SM would have flown to the heights it has had Metroid II not taken the risks it did.
Edit: this wasn't intended as a reply to a comment and should have been it's own comment!
I really wish I could remember the name of it, but it's about a lawyer who effectively puts the devil on trial, except it's really messed up in parts. There's this entire sequence involving a girl, a young child, who over time seduces the main character who describes in great detail the experience of screwing this child, only for it to be revealed that the girl was the devil/a demon of some sort whose sole purpose is to corrupt the main character. The majority of the book was great, but that particular sequence was well into distasteful and disturbing.
I think it was called Son of the Endless Night, but I'm not certain if that's correct.
