    The shoe from Nope is just a "bad miracle". As mentioned throughout the movie when some characters say, "is there such a thing as a bad miracle"

    • @Imaproshaman7
      @Imaproshaman7 Před 2 lety +2

      It's also a random chance thing, like a coin landing on it's side. 1 in a million. Him focusing on the shoe and the table cloth being eye level, is what saved him.
      People often focus on something random during times of intense trauma. The shoe just happened to be like that for whatever reason. That's why he propped it up in the display case the same way. He felt important because of it. Like how he thought he could control the alien, too. Also, the shoe was the miracle that saved him, when in reality, it was all just random chance. A bad miracle for sure.
      I feel like people missed that connection.

    i have to disagree with Kayla's statement that handguns are only for murdering humans, they are a very necessary defense tool in some areas where animals that can potentially kill you hunt, like dealing with wildcats or bears, sometimes they can get very close very quickly and long guns are very hard to use in situations like that and it can be the difference in life and death for humans, there are countless records of people being charged by predators and a handgun saved their life

    bruhhh the USPS... I had some handmade merch mailed to me, she missed a number on the street address so it pointed to down the road between two companies, like for example im at 2000 Road, it got mailed to 200 Road, but the companies are at 150 and 250.. I get stuff delivered almost weekly. So the usps courier saw my name, saw an address that doesnt exist but similar to mine, and DELIVERED it to one of those companies INSTEAD of just returning it (or seeing that it was to me, but maybe it was someone new idk). The company apparently kept it and "lost" it, instead of seeing the address wasnt their's and no one at the company with my name and doing a return to sender...
    other time i mix up 2 letters in the roadname and it GETS TO the post office but they were like "This road doesnt exist but is a mispelled version of road a mile away, weird coincidence, oh well Return To Sender! " 🙄

    I sympathize with Kayla. I moved and got mail forwarding to my new place. Then two cards my friend sent me never arrived. Then I get like five different stories from the USPS on why. One person said that anything without my middle initial wasn't forwarded, which is b/s because I got plenty of stuff without my initial on it. When I asked them to track what hadn't arrived, they said that they couldn't because I hadn't used registered mail. I was like, why would I? How was I supposed to know you were going to lose it?

      @MoxieRocker Před 2 lety

      A Libertarian, to boil it way down, is someone who believes people should “pull their own weight”, or “pull themselves up by their own bootstraps”. They typically believe strongly that Capitalism will police itself, organizations shouldn’t be regulated, and governments should be as small as possible without providing any social programs. They’re the “taxation is theft” crew.

    • @MoxieRocker
      @MoxieRocker Před 2 lety

      It’s a lot more nuanced than that, to be fair. They believe in the free market and are anti-aggression, very little trust in current government structures. Typically support guns rights.

    • @shaun7142

      Libertarians are people who generally believe in the non-aggression principle. The NAP means that you can use violence in self defense but you are not allowed to instigate violence. Thanks to this belief, Libertarians tend to be small government focused, since government tends to maintain the right to instigate violence against its people.
      Libertarians can be divided into "Left" and "Right", who believe in a socialist or free market economy respectively.

      @@TheHumanTarget84 Libertarians generally believe in what is known as the non-aggression principle. In that, you are allowed to use violence in self defense, but you are not allowed to instigate an act of violence.
      The Libertarian issue with government is that they often instigate violence against others. The drug war is a great example, since the use of drugs in and of itself does not constitute violence, but sending in a paramilitary unit to kick down someone's door for using drugs absolutely is violence.
      Libertarians are generally aligned with Republicans on economic issues since they (supposedly) want small government in that field. However, they are more aligned with Democrats when it comes to foreign policy and social issues not related to the welfare state, for much the same reasons.
      Not all Libertarians want to use drugs (legality is a different issues), and religion is not a fundamental issue.
