I haven’t seen the sequel, but the original was filmed in actual F14 aircraft, so I’d be amazed if the cockpit layout was wrong.

There’s never been a point in my life where going out drinking all night has made financial sense. A meal and a beer at a pub, sure, but bars are expensive. And loud. And cramped.

The kids are on to something.

He’s a handy chap, isn’t he?

I think a big part of it is online dating is just how it’s done these days.

But yes, we’ve done a great job of over-complicating something as simple as human interaction.

Is Anon talking out their ass with those stats, or is this actually true?

Does the bicycle support being charged while riding? Or does it shut down for safety reasons?

People who defend modern day Russia, and the many terrible things they do.

Most notably blaming NATO, or “US imperialism” for the multiple countries being invaded.

Yeah, no. If the film takes a stance on an issue, or advocates for a certain point of view, but isn’t upfront about it, it shouldn’t be considered.

Mine figured out how door handles work.

when that opposition to NATO turns into Russian apologism.

It almost always does. They’re a defence pact, which is only activated when a member state is attacked, and the people who oppose them are, without any exception I’ve ever seen, people who think Russia should be free to invade their neighbors.

You genuinely don’t think Russia is a threat to its neighbours, do you?

Riiiight. Sure.

Nothing to do with the fact that pretty much every country that borders Russia has been invaded by them.

And this is why they show up in numbers, or not at all.

I also think NATO is a tool of capitalist oppression,

Yeah, that’s the take I was expecting to see. A mutual defence pact, formed to protect against the very thing Ukraine is experiencing, is a tool of oppression.

Who is NATO opressing, exactly?

That sounds more likely to be world.

So call him one then, don’t just hint at it.

And anyone who disagrees with them will certainly have at least one of those labels thrown at them.

I’m sure they’re pleasant towards you, but the way they act when someone dares to disagree with them is repugnant.

I’m not entirely sure what, to be honest, but they think they did something, and I don’t want to take that away from them.

Also, the cute little insults for Trump and Musk are pretty cringe, just call him a Nazi.

I genuinely think he’s backed himself into a corner with all the illegal shit he’s done, and if he’s out of power again, he’s going to prison.

I don’t believe he wants to stay in power, I believe he feels he needs to. It’s die in office, or die in prison.
