you could say this show is puts on sunglasses the walking dead.

It’s gotta be Nimona. Local boy made it big. Gotta favorite it.

I don’t think Kirkman would disagree. Maybe about the studio, but I think he wants an animated adaptation. I would welcome it. I’m tired of live-action. It’s never good enough. Because animation can do so much more than live-action.

The premise of children stranded on an island, yes. That came from The Coral Island, and Golding didn’t like the colonialism and not-so-subtle Christian themes. He originally just wanted to do a parody of it, with children behaving how children behave. It turned into the Lord of the Flies post WWII as a deep insight of the depravity of man and the horrors of the war through the lens of children. This provided an enthralling contrast indicting humanity and the horrors we wrought on each other. I stand by my original statement. It is within the context of WWII. Peace and love to you, my friend.

Wholeheartedly agree. It was written in the context of immediate post WWII. It was a stark insight into children and humanities depravity for land and conquest.

Fair enough, I would also love to be Nolan jacked.

With that in mind, take them from the adults too lol. I know some adults who are chronically online

Is JK not jacked anymore?

Moreso, they are trying to impress a narcissist to make good on his country’s deal with them.

But they cannot sell them all. Eventually the well runs dry and they will have overstock and the wave will come to shore. The cracks in the foundation seem to be there. But I may be, and probably am, wrong. I studied engineering, not geopolitical based economics.

Ah, fair enough then. I concede.

This is an interesting observation. May I ask why it’s bothersome? I don’t view it any worse than any other adult-oriented show.

I believe any intelligent system will be corrupted, or manipulated for greed. It’s why I believe in complete anarchy. A complete lack of state and authority. All beings equal, all provided what they need. And everyone works with their unique skills for a better future.

Adding intelligence doesn’t make it any better. It just makes the system more exclusive for the powerful. It’s a higher barrier to entry. But the entry is still there.

We both believe in utopias. And we both hope for systems in which human beings aren’t the most vile creatures on earth.

It was a pleasure conversing with you and many blessings to you.

I will fully admit my only data is anectodal evidence from friends overseas.

Edit: I’ll also add, I distinctly remember reading abouy China selling zero mileage used EVs. Which lines up with dumping practices.

I thought the first season was really well done and kept true to the spirit of the pilot. I’ve only heard good things about the latest season, so I assume it’s still on track. Very worth checking out.

To be fair, the kind of capitalism you’re talking about is/would be heavily regulated. In a free-market, which most people refer to when referring to capitalism due to messaging from Republicans, dumping is a perfectly fine tool. Is it ethical? No. But who cares? It’s a free-market.

The guy at my lot said, “you won’t be able to find what you’re looking for; cause even if we stripped everything out, it would still be the MSRP base price.” And I was just floored by that. I walked off the lot, went home and got a PHEV from Mazda and ended up $2000 under asking; had to stay for hours though. Best I could do cause the only comparable cargo and seat size EV was a KIA EV7 (the suburban looking one). I wanted the Ioniq5, but a buddy of mine had a problem with his and Hyundai was terrible to him. Everything else in that size was just too expensive because all the EVs at that level have so many useless features.

They cannot dump indefinitely. That is impossible with current global circumstances. Also, if companies actually invested in EVs sooner, costs would be down already and China would have a harder time dumping. The biggest issue currently is, China can dump for longer than manufacturers can catch up. You reap what you sow, though.

Well, you’re in luck. There’s gonna be three? seasons to be released to total five. You can watch the first two on whatever platform you’d like. Although legally, it’s streaming on Amazon Prime.

Aww man, China is dumping to gain market share for EVs? That’s crazy. If only car manufacturers had adapted to EVs sooner and researched more into better battery technologies, they might not be in this position. Get fucked. This whole, every car has to be super luxorious in America is getting ridiculous. I looked at a rav4 last year and the “features” they included in the base model was mental. I just want my car to go when I press the pedal. Brake. And a CD Player. I don’t need half the shit they put in American market cars. Doesn’t help that I have a large family that needs to travel far, frequently. So, my hands are tied with getting an SUV. I’d kill for a better train transit in America. Next car gets to be an EV though. Cause that’s the sedan.
