Honestly, I do not understand why local offices have to take a stand… I saw an LAPD post saying they are monitoring the situation in Iran and Israel. Like wtf LAPD going to do. 💀
its because modern day people are so out of touch with reality, they expect the authorities to solve every little thing in the world which hurts their sensabilities, reality be damned.
They should monitor the weird inner police gang violence they have. Lol
I mean, theoretically they are one of the few municipalities that do have the resources and manpower to do something, but legally speaking they can’t do shit so you’re totally right, why are they monitoring something a world away lol
Most LA cops don't even live in the damn state.
It's called pandering.
When you're A COMPANY running 80% OF THE WHOLE MARKET, YOU. ARE. THE. THREAT, not the other way around, lol.

I think the show Arcane by Riot Games had the perfect release model for a series. The show was 9 episodes long and they released 3 episodes a week and basically every 3 episodes were basically an “Arc” within the season.
This was a great way to let the show digest for a week to talk/think about it rather than just binging it all at once while also giving you more than just a single episode to watch. You can spread the episodes through out the week and be ready for the new stack of episodes to drop.
The arcane release schedule was fantastic. Because it appealed to both sides and made it feel like you were watching a movie every time
@@OhShuckaroos Exactly!!
@@OhShuckaroos as a binger only, even i loved it. 3 ep at a time everyweek is perfect. 1 every week? by the time in back into the story its already almost over.
Nice. Been work shopping a cool idea for an interactive VR show with some friends. I'd pretty much settled on 9 episodes with 1 released every five days throughout October (horror show) finishing with a double feature on the 30th but I really like that 3 episodes at a time approach! Less confusing for the audience lol.

It's wild how often people threaten murder at public meetings. Recently heard a guy casually threaten to murder his neighbors if the City repealed the ordinance against overnight street parking. I wish we had better mental health services
100%
Don't be a fool, they might be just hateful and evil
@@liul being hateful and evil is an illness. Creating more robust, connected communities with easier access to individual help is one of the few things society can do to address evil.
What's your agenda? Why did you want to comment? Are you implying the foolish action is to conflate evil/hate with mental illness? Why? It's almost like you are implying it's naive to want to help? What do you gain from this perspective? Why are you invested in spreading misanthropy?
@@liul They may be. However, many people need mental health help, significantly more than you think. Yeah, evil people certainly exist but we shouldn’t be too fast to judge.
It's not just mental health, it's the internet. It's a damn echo chamber, everyone is hearing exactly what they want to hear and they're emboldened to speak and act on previously shameful acts.
Any lawmaker calling for vigilante justice needs to be out of office. You can’t claim to be a fan of law and order while also calling for people to be above the law

The sextortion happened to a buddy of mine, and in a panic, cause he knew he couldn't afford the ransom, he started calling all of his family members to let them know they would be getting a video of him touching himself by a scammer and not to open it! 😭😂 The worst part is they never ended up sending the video 💀
the ole switcharoo
"Yeah Aunt Cheryl, I am just _really_ going to town. You know what just don't open anything from any numbers you don't know for a bit. That's a good tip."
"Hey Frank. You're gonna get a video of me and my couch in a day or two from a random number. If you could just not watch that one I'd appreciate it."
I'm a teacher. My school district's superintendent actually introduced staff to a school-focused AI app that is meant to help teachers save time so that we can focus more on the kids. Over the course of the year, it has helped me with setting up units, creating lesson plans, making games that help facilitate student learning, and overall just making my classroom a much better overall experience. Just the fact that it made it easier for me to actually stop working at 4 pm rather than working until I go to bed has been amazing.
What is the app?
Also curious about the app
Such a good point! Just like any other tool, it can be used for good or evil.
Makes more sense to regulate and control it, encourage proper use and understanding about it.
AI should get half of your pay then
@@LynnHermione Mina youre too cute to say something that dumb. 😂
Gotta love how the cops can basically bulldoze your house and be all "Nah, wasn't our fault, sucks to be you" but if an officer gets struck during a protest, now the dude who organized it is now completely on the hook for anything out of his control. If it were in a book I'd call the author a hack
Couldn't have said it better. Great point.
On this point, they said that the rock caused “brain damage” - it was a cop, how can we be sure it wasn’t pre-existing?
Think it's called accountability.
@@SkinUpMonkey "Accountability for thee, and not for me."
Serious question: How many cops are in America and how many are freely bulldozing your houses?
I never thought I'd see Philip cover Warhammer 40K news
The warp calls to us all.
It was already getting bad in my local group. This is embarrassing
Which means a lot of people are getting their introduction to it for the first time thanks to this video.
It feels so surreal when he covers super niche interests.
I'm not fully surprised- Phil has covered niche community topics quite a bit in the past. Last year January, he covered the OGL mess with WotC.
I'm not in the Warhammer world, but I love being informed on the hobbies and interests of other niche communities.
I absolutely adore the fact that after the big story about ticketmaster and live nation, seat geek was the sponsor for todays show
I was thinking the same thing lol
When I was in middle school I had to read the book “She said yes”. It’s about the Columbine shooting following one girl on her journey before she was killed. Her mother said the last thing they ever said to each other was “I love you” as she left for school. From then on I made sure to tell people I love them, and to not be precious with those words, even when it might be embarrassing. Thanks for the message at the end of this episode ❤
Unfortunately, that book was a lie. The girl in question never said yes, it was a different girl. Christians then hijacked a dead girl and turned her into a martyr.
I was a victim of sextortion just two years ago. I was 32, Being 3 years removed from divorce and incredibly lonely having zero luck on dating sites. I succumbed to this and It was probably one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. I had zero money and was absolutely terrified of my friends and family seeing that stuff. Dude even got on a video call with me and showed me my families facebook profiles up on his computer. My heart was racing but I eventually hung up the phone and basically nipped it in the bud before it could get worse. Called my mom my brothers and sister and my closest friends. Had to have the incredibly embarrassing conversation that I fucked up and was being extorted and if you see my face and other things from a random person to not trust them. I wanted to jump off a freaking bridge.
I was lucky and thankfully have thoughtful and kind people in my life. They gave me nothing but support and cracked a couple jokes to make me feel better. I can only imagine how terrible it could have been had I not the support I had. I was lucky…
This stuff is a problem and I hope it gets fixed.
Or, you know, if we all just collectively decided that normalizing sex and sexuality is not some sacred, precious, prudish thing to be shamed over but a natural part of being human, common, and should be safe, consensual and frequent.
With no shame, you can’t be exploited
you handled it like a pro tho. Big props for that
@@FrankAaronwhat a braindead response lamo 😂 OK enough youtube for today
@@TheScriptPunk? I think you responded to the wrong person?
@@MiamiMallAlienthat seems kinda mean-spirited, and for some people sex shouldn’t be some sort of shameful and should be able to be discussed openly. I feel like Sextortion would be a very different situation, but I wouldn’t shit on that dude for having a different view.
Ticketmaster/Live Nation needs to be forcibly shut down. They told the govternement back in 2010 when they merged that their merger wasnt going to create a monopoly. They own hundreds of stadiums and the sole sale of tickets for those stadiums as well, ontop of their ticket sale practices.
What right does anyone have to do that?
So, you want to leave THOUSANDS without a job?
Totally agree monopolies shouldn’t exist. And as someone who was in the music industry live nation is a problem
Broken up and shut down. They shouldn't be able to own stadiums AND be the only place where you can buy tickets. They broke up Microsoft in '99 for way, way less.
@@elisefisher1717nah it gets split up amongst other companies so arguably creates more jobs and competition. Last I checked that’s a good thing
I’m not actually a huge fan, but my favorite retcon is probably how Tolkien retconned the ring after the first edition of The Hobbit. Since The Hobbit is written as a memoir from Bilbo, Tolkien added a note saying that in the initial telling, Bilbo was too ashamed to admit the truth, but that it was now restored. Essentially he safely wrote a retcon without it being a true retcon.
It was still a retcon in other regards. The chapter Riddles in the Dark was almost completely rewritten. The magic ring Golum gives Bilbo was carefully remade into The One Ring, yes, but the chapter also totally reworked Golum from a quirky, less sinister character into the Golum we know and love today.
It was a hard retcon. And yet, it's completely accepted.
40k lore has always contained numerous inconsistencies, both large and small. To me, at least, most of the people complaining about this change are less concerned with it potentially presenting another retcon. They just resent female characters entering a de facto all male space, much like how they resent women becoming more visible in so-called "nerd" spaces.
@@DisorderlyFashion from what I gathered, the way Gollum was rewritten also fell into the “Bilbo was ashamed of how things went down” excuse.
@@DisorderlyFashion Retcons aren't inherently bad; most of the 40k lore was retconned and reworked into the core of established lore by the 4th edition. It's that this retcon is *dumb*. It's not to serve any plot, to make contradicting lore make sense, ot to introduce new(old) tech to maintain congruity with new rules or mechanics -- it's just putting girls into custodes with no consideration.
And yes, the most vocal group of outrage is going to be angry virgins; that doesn't invalidate actual criticism.
@@Rroaj The thing is, no one cares about ANY other retcons. the Warhammer lore changes all the time. the only reason this is so controversial is because they've decided that this retcon is "woke".
@@archermadsen7744 I don't believe you actually care about 40k if you think no one cares about any other retcons. complaining about retcons has been roughly half the discourse for as long as there's been more than one edition.
As a kpop Stan, we've been dealing with these ticket issues for years. During the pandemic they held my BTS Atlanta tickets for 2 years and then refunded me directly before releasing tickets for their new tour. it was heartbreaking to have a ticket and then have nothing when you have to fight for tickets so violently
That's why you're calling yourself a K-pop stan and talking about BTS tells me you're probably not going to listen but that could not ne helped. the way that happened was because of the rules on cancellations. BTS would have 100% honored those tickets if it was legally possible to do so
@@LynnHermione I'm a kpop stan, not just an ARMY. I listen to dozens of groups. what does that have to do with how I experienced the company handling my tickets?
I didn’t wake up today expecting Phil to start explaining 40k lore but I’m glad he did.
I know lol. But got to say it was piss poor writing by GW really, they could have handled it so much better. Plus totally ignoring the Sisters of Silence.
I was gonna say, not all of us are tearing each other apart. Some of us are already dead inside from basically the same thing when Primaris Marines came out.
my thoughts exactly LOL
I’m even more surprised that major kill is done with the change. All I’ve seen from that guy is the discord leaks
@@Hogun13 are you suggesting that the makers of warhammer might not be great people people? I dare say I'm shocked.
Most aggrivating Retcon? "Somehow, Palpatine survived..."
But he didn't. He died. The Palpatine you see isn't the one from the death star that Vader killed, it was a clone made from his DNA.
Snoke is also a clone. There was a cloning lab on Exegol, this was explained in the movie.
You need to think about WHY it is worded that way... Look to the second half of The Neverending Story for a clue, and pay attention to what is said in the final scene of Rise of Skywalker.
The Disney Star Wars movies do not count.
Mine was how they changed Luke
@@philippeamon7271It is worded that way because they were shoehorning an established villain into a story where he didn't make sense.
They offer an explanation, it is not a good one and we as consumers of the media have every right and capability to identify, acknowledge, and criticize the cheap and lazy writing that they provided.
My favorite retcon has to be in the second Jurassic Park book when Dr. Ian Malcolm is suddenly just alive again and the protagonist. Highly reccomend.
19:50 in regards to the Warhammer retcon thing, one of my absolute favorite retcons in any story was in Destiny 2: The Witch Queen. They intentionally retconned the entire backstory for the Hive (one of the main antagonist alien races) by saying it was all a massive lie, and used the fact that it was a lie to evolve the narrative into making them unknowing victims to millions of years of manipulation. It not only opened the possibility of an uneasy alliance with Savathun, one of the most persistent threats we fought in the series, but also showed the immense level of power that the real antagonists have compared to them. Characters described as gods who commited universe-wide genocide across countless planets were nothing compared to Rhulk and the Witness.
Thanks, I loved Destiny until just recently.
I'm so fed up of Ticketmaster having a monopoly on live events here in the UK. Last year I went to see my favourite band, and the cheapest tickets were £95. The *cheapest.* I remember when I used to be able to buy the tickets directly from the venue, and there the most I'd spend was about £40, and that was for VIP tickets. It's becoming more and more expensive to see artists live and I blame Ticketmaster. The band I went to see even gave some loyal fans who really couldn't afford it free tickets because of how bad the pricing was, and they didn't want their fans who had been going to their shows for 20+ years to miss out. So yeah, fuck Ticketmaster.
While I'm sure ticketmaster have a massive hand in the price hikes, I also think that artists these days aren't making money of CD sales and aren't getting much in the way of royalties off radio/streaming and so have to exploit whatever revenue streams they have left. Case in point, Taylor Swift made more money from selling merch than her actual music
Since the pandemic, I refuse to go to anymore concerts. It like the prices went from reasonable to _only if ur rich_ and no artist is worth going into debt for.
@@mcbean1 Ticketmaster is ripping off the artists too that's why they mainly make money on merch.
@@mcbean1 CD sales almost always just went back to the record company. They usually survive off of merch and ticket sales. Nothing has changed there
@@GanjaCoyote yea that's why I said ticketmaster have a massive hand in it...
For the Holy Emperor, I wasn't expecting Inquisitor DeFranco to talk about the retcon
One thing I like doing when watching shows like Fallout is to watch CZcamsrs analyze or explain or show easter eggs. Dropping the entire season makes that incredibly difficult for them.
I shared the Warhammer section with my husband who loves Warhammer and he spent a good amount of time explaining lore to me and why it makes sense. His final take was "I don't understand why we're upset that they gave us muscle mommies"
Your husband is a saint, keep that man safe at alll cost 😂🎉
Your husband is a saint, keep that man safe at alll cost 😂🎉
Exactly my thought! Muscle mommies for the win. Like wtf is even going on
I mean I was kicked out from a session for having them painted in pink....but well
Within Warhammer, factions involving women already exist. The Sisters of Battle have been said to have been around since 1997 and the Sisters of Silence were said to have made their debut in 2003.
I’m a newcomer to the franchise so I do not know the full ins and outs of it. However, based on what I’ve seen, the sisters do not get much investments into figurines, novels or lore compared to the Space Marines (Warhammer poster boys).
It’s not a complaint about how “Warhammer’s gone woke”. No. It’s a complaint about how we have these perfectly good female exclusive factions that are just as cool as The Space Marines and the Custodies, but they’re getting sidelined by a retcon that nobody expected or truly wanted.
Also please tell your husband to develop an argument beyond the “Muscle Mommies” bit. I’ve only seen p*rn addicts unironically vouch for this claim and your husband is presumably too good of man to be associated with those type of people 🙏.
Because there aren't female custodians. There never were. The sisters of battle have their place in the game and it is separate to the custodians.
It was so surreal hearing Philip say "By the Emperor" and "Heresy"
My least favorite retcon is when the new head writer of Doctor Who said that the Doctor is NOT actually a curious misfit who stole a fleet vehicle and ran away to travel and help where he could, because ACTUALLY he is an unknowable god from a place beyond comprehension who already has and will outlive the universe
No more character development, and no more stakes. ☠️
I stopped watching dr who after Matt Smith, when did they make that change?
Yeah timeless child is pure garbage
The Timeless Child is the WORST thing for the Doctor I hope it gets retconned
Same, brother.... Same.
I’m with you
My husband and I who have two boys under the age of 6 love the old one episode a week. There are days/nights where we just can't get to a show, and of course with the internet we try to wear blinders so that we don't get spoiled because we just couldn't watch the show fast enough.
We also love the deep dives, fan theories, and the anticipation for the next episode. Instead of consuming it all in one go and then that first time feel is gone, the weekly new episode gives the impression of savoring something and getting those endorphins longer and being excited for longer.
Before kids we DEFINITELY consumed everything we could as fast as we could, now we like to take it a bit more slowly and have discussions on each episode.
No, thank YOU Phillip for being here keeping me informed every day. You and your team mean more to more people than you can imagine ❤
Honestly I wish stadiums were forced to just handle selling their own tickets. Why these third-party price hikers are needed in any way whatsoever baffles me.
Because Live Nation has them by the contractual balls. They own most if not all of the venues they sell tickets to and force those venues to funnel to their systems. It's a functional monopoly where the prices are insane and our outrage falls on deaf ears as they hedonisticaly bathe in all the money we have been forced to give them for over a decade.
@@AcilandreF You are not forced to give them anything. Prices are set and people can choose to either value the ticket at that price or not. It's not different from any product on the market. If an iPhone is too expensive, you buy a cheap Android. If the cake at the bakery is too expensive, you buy a doughnut or you just don't eat dessert. You don't have a right to entertainment. It's a privilege to even have that available. The reason these guys are rich is because the customers don't have enough self discipline or maybe, just maybe, the prices being set are correct and reflect how much people value these experiences.
Stop saying you are forced when talking about entertainment or luxury items. Nobody forces you. When Netflix raises prices, nobody forces you to keep paying the subscription. You can watch CZcams instead or read a book or play the harmonica or meditate. Entertainment is not a right. Stop treating it as such. Actions speak louder than words. Don't pay if it's too expensive and if more people adhere to this and start being rational consumers, then prices will be forced to drop if they don't reflect the cost of production. Last I checked all these events are fully booked, meaning people are indeed willing to pay these prices, and so, if we give the consumers the benefit of the doubt and treat them as rational, then it means they value this entertainment that fking highly and nothing is unfair.
I recommend studying micro economics. It's fairly simple and explains how supply and demand work for specific things. Clearly the demand is so high that people are paying these crazy prices. I see this as a completely fair business. If you can sell something for more and people will still buy it, you'd be really stupid not to do so (unless it hurts you as a brand enough or loses too many long term customers). Prices drop when people stop paying if it makes sense for the product/service being sold. Instead of complaining about them, stop paying. It's much more effective.
Btw, I know the frustration of buying tickets. Last year I bought tickets to an event in London and in 5 minutes everything was sold by bots and people who queued for over 45 minutes prior. Most tickets started reselling on third party websites for the main event days for much higher prices. It was slightly annoying but honestly I didn't mind. I went to the cheaper days that weren't sold, very good prices and had a great time. If everything is sold it means the event is successful and is more likely to keep operating in the future. Win-win for everyone (the more success - the more competition - the lower the prices).
Nobody forces you to do anything except the government. Ticketmaster isn't forcing you to pay 2,000$ for a ticket. They are offering you that deal. You can decline and move on to what you can and are willing to afford.
@@SiMeGamer thats some 1st grade copium youre selling, completely ignores reality
A bot stole your comment (@ CatherineSWittrock)
I think if that girl was arrested for threatening the counsel. That politician should also be arrested for calling for violence on protestors. Both call for violence. Both should be treated as such
I'd like to remind everyone who is interested in 40k lore that there is an entire subfaction of Chaos space marines specifically called "Noise Marines", who follow the Chaos god Slaanesh who in turn can gives out gifts such as changing the sex of a space marine to female or hermaphrodite (supporting trans people). This has existed as part of canon for a long time, and in fact any Slaanesh follower can receive this gift. But you might not know that, because Warhammer has been actively shoving this faction and chaos god under the carpet in more recent times, even refusing to create models or writing any books for this bit of lore. Warhammer as a company will happily retcon this for Custodies and happy tout itself as virtuous, but still deny Slaanesh any representation. What a move.
On the other hand the only trans representation being like, hypermurderous sensory addicts in league with Elf Satan is not great either.
@@arcee9810 Tbf everything in the 40k universe is fucking insane. The "humans" are arguably more fucked up than the Chaos gods. At least the Chaos gods treat their subjects with some care in their own fucked up way. To the imperium of man everything and nearly everyone is expendable.
But I get what you're saying. A better retcon would be, imo, that these female custodies are trans men. It would keep the faction a boy club and it would be inclusive.
Anyway, blood for the blood god, skulls for the skull throne.
@@Omnifarious42 Your outstanding heresy aside, and on that same token, transwomen in the Sisters of Battle might rule too except it would probably cause even more of a ruckus than the current thing.
“For the Emparor of Man Kind! burn the heretics of chaos … “ Taint of Chaos has tainted 40K
Outright telling someone you’ll murder them - and that you _hope they die_ - when trying to make your case for supporting a ceasefire is one of the most stupid ways I can think of to make a statement.
One of the biggest rules to follow is not to escalate. Do not start what you can’t, or don’t want, to finish. Something tells me that woman wouldn’t have been eager to go through with what she said. Or hey, maybe I’m too cynical and she really would catch an attempted murder charge, who knows with stupid.

Make the pacifist call or I’ll be violent towards you is honestly a horrible approach, no clue what she was thinking. But ironically I’m sure she hates it and finds it barbaric when politicians as seen in this same daily dose of news call for violence. The end goal is that people stop getting needlessly hurt and or killed, so why keep spilling blood to achieve that?

Retcons in various fandoms have been going on for a long time. But it isn't just "retcons" per se. It's how the filmmakers treat storylines & characters. For example, Star Wars was very polarizing for MANY reasons, particularly The Last Jedi. Before the film's release, you had tons of videos of CZcamsrs diving into theories on who Rey's parents are, who Snoke is, & what's gonna happen with Luke Skywalker. The Last Jedi killed a lot of that momentum for viewers & it literally destroyed the fan base.
How is he covering this 40k retcon controversy, but doesn't say ANYTHING about Akira Toriyama's passing over a month ago? That man impacted the whole world in an astonishing way!
Believe it or not. Warhammer is an old universe. And now it's expanding even more. At 2024, it's way bigger than any sci-fi and fiction combined.
Which is why this "woke" thing has angered many people including women and LGBTQ community themselves who hate that.
Only one who is supporting this move is someone who doesn't know lore and just want muscle mommies, doesn't care and third SBI type woke community
Morgan Freeman voice: "But unfortunately for Ms. Patel, she would quickly discover that a City Council meeting was not the same as a Call of Duty lobby..."
Yeah, I get why she's pissed off but holy shit she couldn't have found a dumber way to express it. Public death threats are a good way to get arrested, and a great way to not be taken seriously.
@@andyb1653 If they didn't take her seriously they wouldn't have had her arrested. I'll admit, most activists these days are terrible at strategy, but believe me when I say that her being arrested won't decrease the likelihood of things like this (and things even more impactful) happening again. She said what A LOT of people want to say and vocalized what a lot of people want to do to their government officials. All it takes is someone smarter than her to have the same mindset and more of a willingness to act on it. There are more people like that than people want to believe.

@moonlightauras1 I don't doubt this.
The question is, if they were to act on such things, would things get better or worse?
Because the tricky thing is, when people act on such things, they usually set the entire house on fire trying to cook marshmallows. Dramatic, flashy and memorable in the short term, but a much steeper price with less to work with in the long term.
Not saying people shouldn't stand up for themselves. The American Revolution is a testament to that.
But if a person or group is going to take matters into their own hands, they better have at least 15 contingency plans when shit hits the fan.
When keeping it real....goes wrong
Few years back I worked at a rehab hospital. One of the patients attempted to end his life following an extortion scam. Could see first hand how devastating the impact on him and his family ended up being. Good that they are going after these scammers.
Nothing worse than losing your money and feeling like an idiot/stupid. That’s how casinos exploit people too, they make you feel like a loser for losing and prey on the insecurity of wanting to win
Listening to Phil talk about 40k is my new favorite Audiobook.
I definitely prefer week by week over a season drop. And it's purely because I love community discussion. It's exciting watching an episode drop and then heading to CZcams, Instagram, texting a friend and being like "OMG, that one scene", instead of "Did you finish the season already? What episode are you on? Okay let me remember what I wanted to talk about. Alright, that's it I guess. Can't wait for next year's season " OR WORSE getting spoiled well before I've finished the season. Of course not all the shows that season drop have discussions that die out quickly, but I personally enjoy knowing that I'm having, like, a community sleepover talking about this show we love for the next two months. WandaVision and Loki comes to mind as awesome eras of community building.
I get why somebody would like that, I on the other hand prefer to just watch when I can and how much I can watch in the time I have available at that moment if it's something I watch alone, could be half an episode, could be 1 or 2, could be binging the entire season , or make it a nice family evening watching a few episodes in a row. I prefer to wait untill all episodes are available, but it's so much harder to avoid spoilers with weekly releases because of the discussions after each episode.
So i'm 100% in the camp of release all at once please, as is my wife as she is always disappointed when it turns out we started watching something that isn't fully released yet and we will have to wait for the next episodes to drop
Supreme court basically killing the right to protest in 3 states is highly problematic. And why stop there? Land of the free or land where only some are free?
Exactly. It’s funny that the far right conservatives don’t find this problematic
@@DiamondFlame45 it isnt. maybe dont break the law.
That's not what happened. They just didn't say the 1st amendment protected someone if they organize a protest and it gets violent. The specifics about the case could be problematic, but their response is not.
Well just remember that it cuts both ways. If you see a far right protest start up, claim you're part of the group, and go hog wild.
@@chrischika7026 How is their right to organize breaking the law?
Speaking as a HS teacher, there is a key difference between use of AI as a Tool vs using AI to avoid/shortcut learning. Many students do not know the difference. Students do not realize the impact on their own futures by cheating through school.
Ai tools can be helpful when used ethically (ex: Spellcheck), but I also hope that school districts don't replace teachers or aides with a robot that doesn't understand human nuance. From personal experience, i can totally picture a district saying 'We don't need aides for Special Ed/English Language Learners in a classroom because they have an AI aide.'
Also a HS teacher, my other thought here is who will teach these students how to use this tech ethically? It will be us and I’m not thrilled about that.
Our jobs are already overwhelming and there is already never enough time. What we really need is tech classes that are required. Kind of like the keyboarding/computer classes from yester-year. Back when computers were new to education and the internet was in its infancy.
It was so strange to me that first story because rarely with two opposing sides do I end up thinking almost the same thing about both sides, which is 'Damn, therapy in America needs to be a lot better, more accessible, and less stigmatised."
While the power each person holds is also fairly opposite of the scale from one another, people in a healthy mental state do not make these kinds of declarations publically, the fact neither of them could keep the frustration on the DL and directly threatened people's lives fairly suddenly, it's not a good sign for their impulse control, and poor impulse control can snowball into disaster much quicker than we would imagine.
I love how you said you were an outsider looking in, but your 40k knowledge was pretty good.
Most hated Retcon is the decision that the entire Star Wars Expanded universe was no longer cannon.
There was a TON of established lore, stories and content that people loved that were essentially nuked from existence.
Counterpoint though, way more of that EU was unhinged garbage than people like to remember. For every Knights of the Old Republic or Heir to the Empire there was a LOT of things written into the canon that made the lore confusing, unapproachable, or just plain weird. I'm not going to pretend Disney or LucasFilm narrowing the scope of Star Wars lore was a move for the fans, but they've definitely shown that all the good ideas (Thrawn, most of KOTOR, the Emperor's wacky experiments) are going to be reincorporated (slowly) into canon while keeping the rubbish ones out.
It was never Canon, and Lucas notoriously hated considering expanded universe content as such. He thought it took away from what he was actually trying to do. So, Disney just did what George was going to do if he had written the sequels.
@@MrBradyR It was canon, it just didn't matter to Lucas, and it was setup in such a way allowing him to change it at any time. This "hate" thing is also complete nonsense, he worked and consulted on a ton of EU projects like The Force Unleashed, awfully unusual thing to do for something you don't want and have ultimate control over...
Disney also didn't do "what he was going to do", because if he hates the EU why would he reset it? Why wouldn't he just end it? This doesn't make sense.
EU was almost entirely garbage.
I totally understand buying Star Wars and not wanting to be forced into this. They bought the IP, they do what they want with the future of it.
You don't have to like it, you don't have to consume it. Nothing was taken away from what was previously made. You can still read EU books, you can still watch the original trilogy.
40K drama really wasn't something I would have expected to see in the Phillip DeFranco show ever. The whiplash from that segment was strong.
The positivity and love I get to find after today’s show is my 4yo’s very first tee ball practice. Not news worthy but nice to look forward to at the end of the day.
I live in Maryland and grew up on the eastern shore, one of the most vital links is the Chesapeake Bay Bridge which connects most of the shore to the rest of the state. I say this because if protesters ever shut it down I can imagine the residents there will be enough to remove them themselves.
Please don’t get mad at me I am just making an observation.
One of the most frustrating things about the sextortion scams is how little social media companies care about it. I can't tell you how many times I've reported accounts with very obvious markers of scammers and got back "Our bot looked at it and decided it's fine. No further review!" They care more about user numbers than about protecting users.
I’m relieved about the two sextortion arrests. Last year a 17 year old boy in my province was the victim of a sextortion ring. The extortionists were able to access his contacts and had already begun sending the images he had sent them to his friends and others. He took his own life as a direct result. His parents were the ones who found him.
That's terrible
yeah when i was in college a kid in my organization sent nude pics and they sent it to the ORGANIZATION INSTAGRAM and said if he didn’t pay $3000 he would send it to everyone on our following list.
well he didn’t pay and they did it. they kid dropped out of school and hasn’t left his moms house in 3 years.
Damn, that’s messed up…
That is horrifying. I feel so bad for his parents.
This happened to my boyfriends friend and if he had been alone and not had us in the next room to tell him how to handle it, I have no idea what would have happened to him. He was ready to send $9,000. They had made a group chat with every single one of his family members to send the videos
Something also to consider with the Live Nation story is that scalpers are such a huge problem, and there aren’t enough safeguards in place to deter them. One of my favorite bands, Sleep Token, is coming to Red Rocks Amphitheater in May and right as tickets went on sale, they were all somehow immediately sold out, even with queues and pre-sales in place. Tickets are still around ~$300 per ticket. Not as bad as The Eras Tour by any means, but having to pay literally anything more than a maximum of $20-$30 for a concert ticket is absolutely ridiculous.
I ended up finding a ticket for almost $200 after fees for Sleep Token. Excited to go, but very upset about how much it was.
This is one reason I've given up entirely on attending live gigs.
If it's a rare - possibly once-in-a-lifetime - event, then I'd consider paying a bunch more than normal, but for your everyday concert? Not so much.
I was just talking to my buddy about the binge model the other day, especially regarding the fact that watching an episode requires the same amount of time as watching a movie. As an adult with responsibilities, it's nice to wind down with a good show at the end of the day, but the pressure to watch 6-8 feature films worth of content to avoid spoilers and keep up in fandom conversations is rough. My friend said he likes the idea of a huge drop of content being there even if he doesn't have time to get to it all. In recent years my husband and I have gravitated more toward shows with shorter episodes. Even when a getting a full season, it's nice to not have to pick a good spot to pause content we're enjoying.
The fact that a woman would brazenly make a threat to kill people at a city council meeting and not realize that would get her arrested is an indictment of the education system.
Not really, it's an indictment of our society. Where the wealthy and powerful few get away with saying such garbage, but the second one of us peasants does we get the full force of the law.
@@ToxicAudri Yep. I was publicly educated and know you can't say stuff like that without getting arrested. It's a multi-tiered justice system. That's the problem.
She’s not even an American she’s an immigrant bro xD
Yeah, no, like what the other guy said. We see politicians saying this kind of thing all the time, sometimes resulting in literal attacks and deaths, and see no consequences.
The woman is not the brightest bulb for saying what she did, but there is truth in that our politicians and talking heads have been ramping up rhetoric for years and get away with it. Selective enforcement is a real problem.
@@ToxicAudri So weird, I never heard of any rich people going into public hearings, making these kinds of comments, and having nothing happen to them. This has nothing to do with wealth and trying to say such diverts from the topic at hand: Don't be Stupid, Stupid.
It is INSANE to be threatening to murder your city council. Especially over something that even if they did do, would have an extremely small impact on your cause.
its unhinged and she deserves every charge

I think also to remember too Phil, with the weekly episode drops, is that we grew up in a time where an entire season was 20 something episodes and lasted from a September to May schedule. I think the last show that I remember that I watched doing that was "This is Us". Most shows now are about 8-10 episodes, 13 if you're absolutely lucky. So, at that time, you had a one of your favourite shows you could watch each night of the weekday. Now, with the shorter seasons, especially with streaming platforms, it's nice to watch your show that you like after work/evening down time and not have to wait a week, since the build up is also a lot faster, VS a mid season bulid up and a season finale build up.
So, I have to say with the longer 20 some odd episodes seasons, I'm fine with the once a week model. And the shorter seasons, I dont mind all at once. Once a week for Shogun, for example, each episode is such a cliffhanger, that it can feel like a bummer to wait for the next one lol.
It's a small thing but I love the acknowledgement of "Tuesday evening, Wednesday morning," because I'm part of the Wednesday morning crew and I regularly have the show be like my morning news run while making/eating breakfast. Thanks guys. 😊
Same! I like to wake up in Thailand to Philip DeFranco!
Agreed he posts very late for me so I often watch it in the morning :)
Ms. Patel is an example of bringing an online mentality into a real world space. For those of us who grew up largely without constant access to the Internet our brain to mouth filters seem to work a whole lot better.
Do i think she personally plans to enact terrible violence? No. Do I think it has become commonplace in online spaces to be blase about extremely violent statements? Yes.
("Eat the rich" etc.)
Unfortunately, this is the"find out" part of f-ing around.
I do hope she gets a jury of her peers, good representation and a lenient sentence.. but honestly, especially in today's climate, you can't let remarks like that slide.
I agree that it's the internet reaching the real world, I just hope she gets the full force of the law.
Reminds of that “in Minecraft” guy
The reason for the more violent rhetoric is because more of us are tired of playing nice, trying to win within a rigged political system.
Yes, people are using such language because they are fed up, it's clear our elected officials do not serve us, they serve the wealthy class of America.
I don't get why she would think she can say anything like that to a public official and have no consequences like bruh
Notice how the violent rhetoric from that story came from an elected official and a leader in the national government, and the violent rhetoric from the left came from a random person in a random meeting that was put on national tv
My favorite retcon has to be what they did with the Battletech TV show from the 90s. It was weird and biased and full of memes, but instead of removing it, it became in universe propaganda for one of the factions. Amazing.
*19:42**: In Doctor Who, the Doctor's entire origin story being rewritten in 'The Timeless Children' episode.*
*That genuinely hurt! It turned a character that became special into a character that was born special, and it destroyed tonnes of established Time Lord lore.*
As an English teacher, Ai has been dreadful. It’s my first year and I keep saying how I wish I was a teacher 5,10, 20 years ago because it was not as bad back then. I have to talk to six students tomorrow because they used AI on a test essay, an essay they were allow to use notes, slides, and their books on. The saving grace (if it can be called one) is that they don’t know how to use it. They put the prompt in and boom done. Some copy and paste, others take the time to type it out word for word, but some are starting to just use a chrome plug in on google docs. I have coworkers who have been doing this for years shifting to writing papers by hand to avoid ai plagiarism. As a first year teacher it’s gut wrenching because I’m putting in so much work to find, create, and build resources for them to use just for them to not even try. Then when it comes to having this discussion I have to have all this evidence to back up my claims. I’m spending 3x as much work and time proving they are using ai that there are days I debate just giving them the grade they didn’t earn, but then how is that fair to other students? On the bright side AI is still dumb to a degree, quotes and details are not present. It’s a shallow summary of events made to look nice with perfect grammar and fancy words that my students wouldn’t even be able to define unfortunately. At least this time it’s easy to see because a character in Romeo and Juliet has two different spellings. Ai uses one we used the other in notes, quizzes, slides, and our version of the text. But it’s getting better everyday to the point where everything will need to be written by hand again.
Several college professors I work with have switched back to using bluebooks for tests in class because too many people are plagiarizing.
My first year too. Social studies. The way I have adapted has been extreme micromanagement when it comes to essay writing. Thankfully I teach 6th grade so that’s necessary anyways, but they have to submit paragraph building blocks before they write their whole response and final essay, so I see their writing 3 times minimum (I don’t usually grade it, just give short verbal feedback I don’t have that kinda time). Google form lock-down times writing as well for my 8th graders.
Part of what has to happen is homework and take home projects need to be handled differently. They need to count for less of the final grade and more quizzes/tests should be incorporated because it requires actually understanding the material to complete. Beyond that, some work will be easier to complete with the use of AI or google, but that needs to be looked at on a case by case basis. Coding, for example, is made easier w AI and google and your ability to be resourceful is more important. All the same it’s a tricky situation and we haven’t really figured out what to do yet as a society about AI.
I'm an English teacher to EFL college students in Korea... and the amount of plagiarism/translator use makes me always suspect my students. I'm going to shift to analog too for this reason
Is it possible to motivate them to research and write it themselves by telling them it's like how their favorite CZcamsrs do their scripts for long-form investigative video essays? Idk, are kids watching those? I know my generation and gen z seem to really enjoy 45+ minute deep-dives, but maybe younger kids don't, so it wouldn't motivate them. Could be worth a shot?
In middle school, someone tried to blackmail me using “webcam footage of me naked”. The whole scheme was so stupid. They hacked into my school email account, and because the setting used by the district were so strict, I wasn’t even able to get google notifications that someone logged into my email. We also weren’t allowed to enable tfa.
Anyway, the person hacked my school email, then sent an email to me from the account, claiming they had proof I’d visited porn sites and they’d gotten footage from my webcam too. Threatened to spread everything to all my friends and family if I didn’t fork over bitcoin.
The funniest part to me though, at the time my personal laptop’s webcam was broken. Also, there’s no way in hell that even the tamest porn site was unblocked. My district had cool math games blocked for god’s sake.
Reminds me of the time years ago I got a Facebook message trying to extort money from me, claiming they had pics of me from my webcam. I lol'ed and replied that my out-of-date desktop PC had no camera, so they could go kick rocks. Of course, I should've only reported them without directly engaging, but I was naive and so amused by the irony I got careless. Don't be younger me, folks! Don't respond to these things if you get them; just report & block.
got that same email. i'm ace and my desktop never had any camera, it was quite funny.
The real crime here is your school blocking Cool Math Games ☹️ That site was my childhood
You’re the best, Phil. I’m so glad you’re still here doing the thing after all these years. 🥰
It is very interesting to see the reversion back to the episodic style of video media releases.
I'm a science teacher in a school in Europe and my head of my department has volunteered the department to try to integrate AI and VR tech in our lessons. While I have nothing against the integration of tech into my lessons and I actually welcome it, I am finding that what we currently have actually gives me more work than saves me work as me and my coworker have to program everything ourselves as there's nothing out there for us to use for the level that we teach (11-14 year olds). Whenever I've used AI or VR in the classroom I'm always reminded of the warning "They will remember the experience but not the lesson" and this has proven true in all of my Tech lessons as kids love the novelty but when I quiz them the next lesson they can't remember what they learned and it's driving me mad because its wasting so much of our lesson time and my own planning time.
I'm sure there's a future for AI in education but it dont think it's currently at the right level for it to alleviate teacher work load right now, it only adds to it.
😂
yup, the tech should be integrated to make teachers lives easier and free up more time to work with students. The general population is making the exact mistake about AI that they all make with calculators. They think "why do we need to learn math if we have a calculator" and now its "why do the kids need to write essays when they can just be taught to effectively use AI" but the way to effectively use a calculator or AI or any tool at all is to start with strong foundational knowledge. Which means learning to do math by hand and learning to write with your own ideas and with a strong understanding of grammar.
More people need to be forced to watch elementary and middle schoolers do any single task and they will realize how much prior knowledge you are operating on that you think is unimportant. You might think that hammering a nail into something is pretty self explanatory but watch kids use a nail way to long or way to short or not take time to line something up. The only reason you can do a simple task is because you learned from your own mistakes already, someone taught you, or you were able to use prior knowledge to apply it to a new situation. There is no skipping the basics to jump to using and advanced tool.
edit: I will often tell kids who won't stop complaining that we can for sure have an assessment where I test their ability to use a calculator. I give them a simple problem, they type it in, they all get it correct and say "yay you all passed the calculator assessment! which is wonderful because it frees us up a bunch of time to learn how to do calculations by hand or that a calculator won't help you with!" :p I could imagine myself doing the same with writing essays with chatGPT. Cool you all wrote an essay in 10seconds! Now we have lots of time to learn how chatGPT did that ;p
How exactly are you attempting to include AI tech in your lessons?
AI technology is incredibly complicated, so I imagine it would be very difficult, to abstract it to a level that 11-14 year-olds can understand.
Is the aim for them to create AI, or to use AI? Because I can see the value in teaching them how to use it, and create new things with AI, but teaching that age-group to work **ON** AI, might be a tad ambitious. :)
Most hated retcon is the Spider-Man story "One More Day" where Marvel Editorial undid Spider-Man's 30+ year marriage to Mary Jane because the editor didn't think that a married Spider-man was "relatable".
I hated when they brought him back at the end of Ultimates run just for the world to blow up. Took a lot away from his sacrifice.
Married Spider-Man isn't relatable
@@AmericanbadashhSure he is. He has a gf, somebody he has loved his entire life. Why wouldn’t he marry her? There’s nothing unrepeatable about that. It seems everyone these days wants their fictional characters to be as miserable as they are.
Worst retcon of all time and worst way for JMS' run to end.
The current issues seem to want to take that title, paul is the worst thing to happen to the comics since "one more day."
I had to paused during the segment about protesters. The fact that the PD is so blatantly hypocritical, that an officer was hurt when people were protesting MURDER committed by that department, and that first amendment rights are being stripped over it?? Nauseating
I am a teacher at an independent school. AI is a tool, and just like any tool, our students deserve to know how to use it and use it properly. I teach computer science and I find that explaining to students HOW ai works right now really helps them put into perspective why it shouldn't be used to do all their work for them. I find that schools are shifting more to skills based learning as opposed to purely content knowledge since ai can cover that, but whether or not my student know how to do something it cannot. It is an interesting conversation to have right now. I think the way classes and assignments are structured is going to change vastly in the next few years.
Phil talking trash about Ticketmaster while having a sponsor of seatgeek will always be funny.
During the AI Personal Assistant for Students story, I couldn't help but think of the Pixar Movie WALL-E and the children being taught by a Robot... "B is for Buy N Large, your very best friend..."
“And remember kids Ed loves you” … really? It’s so dystopian.
Worst retcon was the removal of Expanded universe stuff from canon Star Wars. There was a lot of good lore there.
Is it just me that saw the perfect edit of 28:11 when Phil swings his hand away the Fallout poster. Small detail but looks so nice imo.
Ah the irony of a SeatGeek ad on a piece about Ticketmaster; SeatGeek are enabling ticketmaster resales
I laughed out loud when that seatgeek ad played. A little tone deaf much, Phil??
I really like Phil, but there have been many times over the years where the sponsorships have been really questionable. I wish he would be a bit more strict about what sponsors he takes on, because it does eat away at trust for a news show, when the ads seem out of step with the trust the news segments try to build.
If that woman was arrested and disavowed for her violent rhetoric why doesn’t an elected official face the same?
Thisssssssss
Cos his fellow constituents agree with him and are willing to back him up in saying, "Oh he didn't mean it that way." Meanwhile, that young lady who spoke out in anger is being made an example of and the people who claim to be rooting for the same cause immediately distance themselves from her. That have and the have nots, and what not.
Rules for thee but not for me
Because it’s an explicit threat on a public official. Why are you acting smug like you make a valid point here?
Because you guys allow it to happen. You think those in power would arrest themselves? You guys need to think a bit
From multiple shows that I watch or love I can say that model of one episode per week fits much better into a life of being an adult with responsibilities. I have a night I look forward to where I maybe splurge and have a nice meal. I get to watch my show and I don't try to squeeze in other activities for the night. I watch the youtube videos about everyone's predictions for that nights episode and everyone picking out easter eggs after the episode airs and there is discussion about the episode and what will happen in the next episode. These videos are not long and I can spend as much time on forums and watching these extras from the cast, directors, producers, youtubers, etc. as I wish to get into the show more or simply watch it before I go to bed at my leisure as something to look forward to. I also personally remember details of each episode when I watch it this way vs binging it.
With a series dump I do not have feel like the option is there to watch one episode a week as youtubers and discussion forums go over the series the next day. . .I mean they say they stayed up all night and I ask myself if they have a job bc I can't stay up all night and still function the next day. Taking 8 weeks to watch Fallout. . . .everything would have been spoiled and only one youtube channel is going over the series episode by episode and everyone else is simply breaking down the first season. All discussions are about the season. 8 weeks from now no one will want to have a discussion with me about ep 8 and the commentary may include "Wow, you are just seeing that now?" because it was two months ago for them.
I appreciate Phil putting the Cotton and Patil comments back to back
So when a public official calls for violence and for people to be thrown off bridges that's okay and just theoretical
But when a student speaks her mind in the small moments of visibility she has to the people of people with ACTUAL theoretical violence(mass protest and murder of officials is not historical in our country PERIOD)
She is arrested with 500k bond??
As an avid concert goer, I’ve hated Live Nation/Ticketmaster for years. When their method of fighting scalping was to create their own system to scalp tickets and make money, I gave up on them ever caring about their customers and the artists they work with. They trap bigger venues into always using their service so that decently priced tickets can only be found in the smaller local music scene while bigger names are being overpriced more year after year.
was watching this with my mom in the room and the only thing she had to say was "does he actually talk that fast or do you have it sped up?"
i appreciate your fast talking phil
The vast majority of shows I watch sped up to at least 1.25. Phil is not one of them, he's naturally 1.25
My mom doesn't speak English and she despises Phil, all she hears in her words "fast gibberish"
The other day I was watching an episode while on break at work. One of my coworkers asked, "Does that guy breathe?" 😂😂😂
@@EliHooke Phil is too slow. I speed him up to 2x.
He speaks quickly but also popularized the use of “frequent cuts” to remove dead air and not need to redo long takes.
I was a victim of sex torsion last year, the person attempting to extort me showed me a picture that they took of their phone with every single one of my contacts in a large group message, they had sent a message to that group chat saying that they had something to show them. I for the life of me couldn't figure out how they managed to add every single one of my followers into a single DM. But whatever they were doing to enable that should be blocked by Instagram because if somebody were to do that, it is incredibly easy to follow through with those threats whereas if they have to do it manually and add everybody one by one, it doesn't block it completely but it definitely makes it a lot harder. Thankfully I was able to get ahead of it and I sent a bunch of messages out to everyone that I knew basically telling them not to interact with that person and that they were trying to scam me which seemed to have address the issue for the most part. And I don't know if they ever actually followed through with sending anything. I have to say though making the choice to block the scammer rather than continuing to talk to them and trying to get them money was a very hard choice to make.
AI in classrooms is something that my mom is currently working on. She’s a elementary school teacher, and has become one of the lead people at that school that is learning about AI and how it can benefit teachers and students. It’s been really interesting to hear about how she’s given presentations to her coworkers on AI and what it can do for them. New York schools are tight in my opinion, that this is going to become a more and more common thing in everyone’s lives, so we should all (teachers and students alike) be learning about it
Ok, coming in hot with this take, there WERE female space marines in 40k, back when it was known as "rogue trader" they were retconned out by Games Workshop when the female space marine models were the worst selling models in thier very small range at the time. The market spoke and they streamlined thier production.
A lot of choices are made for production reasons, meaning cold hard cash.
Purity seals, the little wax sealed ribbons on imperial forces were put on models to cover up troublesome areas in the casting mold for more money, easier
Keep your eyes peeled for "Noise marines" or "emperors children"
And rule 34 is going to go crazy with this.
I personally do not give a hoot about them making female custodes, it's fine by me and I don't see it too damaging to lore, just a lazy way of introduction. BUT Custodes are not Space Marines, not even close, just as a "um actually" clarification.
I forsee a lot of rule 34 "death by snu-snu" 😂
I dont like female space marines, nor the excuse of "it was like this in Rouge Trader"... becuase... Orks had pouches when they became Feral Orks, and Space Marines at that time were just drugged up regular humans, and not the gene-manipulated super humans that we know today.
Unless clarified, I dont think anything from Rogue Trader should be considered canon unless specifically stated to be so. Like in Second edition when genestealers were retconed from being just a random animal to being part of the Tyranid fleets. Ya' know?
Also dont take this as "Weh Weh weh femoid spoose maroons BAD!!", because I dont hate the idea, or the people who want them. They're just not for me, personally.
also there were already women fighting as inquisitors or assassins. on the one hand it makes sense that the primarchs genes would only work with men, but on the other hand it would also make sense in warhammer to have a desperate faction experiment with female recruits.
Just bring back the grim dark
As a longtime 40K player I find this whole kerfuffle to be absolutely hilarious. A few things to note about 40K & GW:
1) The lore of 40K is the textbook example of the Unreliable Narrator trope.
2) The lore of 40K has ALWAYS been in the service of selling more toy soldiers. Everything GW does is in service of that singular goal.
3) The Sisters of Battle can’t have men in that faction because they exist as a result of a loophole in an edict that says the Imperium’s state religion can’t have “men under arms”.
4) 40K is satire. A prime example is that one of the main faction leaders is a thinly veiled joke at the expense of Margaret Thatcher.
On the female Custodes front; as a small 40k channel nearing the 1k mark, and as someone who has played for decades at this point. People getting upset haven't read enough of the books. I'll be talking about it my pod on Wednesday, but the long and short of it; is they've always been implied to exist. We've just never had it directly shown.
That Guillotine lady is absolutely wild, like dawg she said we're gonna go to your house and get you. Yes it is common to feel extreme emotions for your cause, but you always have to stand tall professionally or your tantrum will ruin the face of the cause you feel so strongly for.
Still seems like the Israelis are more violent considering they are doing a genocide
This behavior just like blocking traffic's only going to make people hate your side. Even though you're on the right side of things. They're going to disagree with you on the principle of what you're doing. People are stubborn AF and this is not going to get them on your side. In fact, it's going to drive them farther away from your side.
The point is to make our political leaders scared of us, if they fear us, they dare not cross us. As it stands they do not fear us, they know as it stands they hold all the money and power and we are powerless. Our government is tyrannical, it doesn't serve you or me, it serves the wealthy business owners and the investors, it serves the wealthy class of America to the working classes determent.
she forgot that real life isn't the internet.
yeah having been on platforms where chronically online leftists are, this 1000% feels like a case of “teenager who has a mile long DNI/BYF and has not touched grass since COVID started”. I’m just wondering how nobody organizing with her didn’t see that BEFORE she took the stand.
It doesn’t matter how much self control you have to not binge. If all your friends/coworkers are binging, you won’t be able to interact in discussions. Simply bringing up the topic will risk you catching spoilers.
There are studies that have suggested that a weekly release actually leads to a more complete understanding of the series.
It's probably also because you get to remind yourself bits of it every week. The same way when you study a shit ton in one day for an exam you'll forget everything within a week
Weekly simply creates more zeitgeist. Which benefits everyone.
I'm the complete opposite. I forget everything if I wait a week between episodes. That said, I wouldn't want everyone else to be forced to consume media the same way I do. I usually just wait for a show to finish and binge it then.
On the 40k Story- The most notable and pandered to faction, the space marines, are canonically all men and there are 2 major factions and several sub factions in the game that are all Men. To top that off there are men in the sisters of battle army like the missionary and preacher models as well as Kyganil a named character that can be used when fielding the sisters
As an actual educator, this fear of AI is ridiculous. I remember when it was first brought up in a staff meeting (in my very relevant field), I stated: Photography didn't replace paintings. If you are worried about plagiarism on an assessment, write one that it would be hard to plagiarise. I do that. Reflective and process explanation writing is possible in all academic courses. The assessments just need to change. Educators can't be lazy about it. I wish I had an AI assistant for my students to answer the easy questions they could access themselves but get flustered and miss so they ask me. It wasn't that long ago that higher education educators had secretaries...AI could bring part of that back and give us time back to make better student learning experiences. AI is absolutely nothing to be afraid of and anyone who is yelling that is afraid to reskill themselves. There isn't a huge monetary cost barrier to do this (most things are free including a lot of AI tools). Technology changes but people are always needed to harness it and to go beyond it.
I agree overall, except for the last half of the last line: If there will ever be a thing where people are no longer needed for harnessing, it will be AI.
Reti Pattel threatening murder is an example of how our loosely regulated online behaviors and speech are seeping into our real lives, and people are no longer aware of the consequences of real life behaviors.
This is tracking back to your stories on out of hand pranks, doxxing, stalking trends, minute madness trends, and even today having another person in the same story calling for real life acts of violence through internet veils.
It’s like pointing a realistic toy gun at the cops and being surprised that they arrested you or shot you
The absolute worst retcon for me was when Chris Chibnall rewrote the Doctor’s backstory from Doctor Who as basically Time Lord Jesus, when the whole show up to that point, it was emphasised that he is just an average person of his race that decided to run away
changing The Doctor from being the representation of "when a person chooses to add good into the world" to "the chosen one, born to be great and do good" is such a catastrophically bad read on what makes the character work by the crew.
Did they actually fix that in "The Giggle"?
Didn't they turn him into a little black girl that isn't even a time lord. I hate the term woke but.. that's so sad it's comical
which season/doctor was this? I kinda stopped watching after the 11th, though the 12th doctor did look like it had some interesting episodes.
@@Mythda it really is, I hated when Naruto went that route, it went from "underdog proving everyone wrong" to "the chosen one bound to win" and it just left a bad taste in my mouth.
I agree, fully dumping shows for binging deprives is of a much needed community building and connection opportunity.
As someone who watches the show the morning after, I feel so seen by your intro now. 😄
Hey guys, I'm an Arkansan and I want you guys to know that we are NOT violent or hostile folk. In fact, my friends from out of state, and my partner from California, all claim we are nice, polite, and docile. Ironically, my partner who is black, Jewish, and trans receives LESS open/public bigotry here than when he lived in California. Tom Cotton is a mouth-piece for the Twitter faction of Republicans, not Arkansans. I protested in 2020 for BLM and ain't shit happened, so he can keep running his mouth with his empty lies making the rest of us look bad.
That dude could not convince me that you were. I know when it comes to it, he'd probably piss his pants rather than stand and fight for what he wants like he so suggests.
Keep being you!
Wait people live in Arkansas? Aren’t you guys like the discount Kansas?
Stop the 🧢
Thanks for reminding us of this
Its important not to judge entire groups based on one crappy person
We know Arkansas has great people who care
@@craigewen7542 how in the world is me defending my state from a loony fuckhead "virtue signaling"? Weirdo.
Meet Ed is 100% about data collection. What better way to profile a consumer's potential spending habits by looking at patterns since childhood.
I never thought that Phil would talk about Warhammer 40k and get so much of explanation correct, but here I am, and I loved every moment of it
I love that my Golden Boys now also include Golden Girls
One thing to note that the writers of the books and other lore involving the Custodes actually intended to include both men and women among their ranks, but the higher ups in GW at the time were a "boys only" club about a lot of game. So the writers sprinkled in stuff throughout the books and codexes for future reference.
A lot of bigoted fans are pointing at a text describing how the "Lords of Terra would offer their sons" to the Custodes, but seems to ignore the text that comes RIGHT AFTER that says "whole clans would offer ALL of their offspring" and how "only the Custodes themselves truly know the requirements for recruits"
To be fair, it doesn't help that GW also nerfed the crap out of the army, and made almost every unit completely useless to play now..
The whole thing has really highlighted the ugly bigotry in the game that pushed me out in the 90s. Only in the last 10 years have I gotten back in to it because I have amazing friends who just wanted to enjoy the game and have fun. The gaming space has changed a lot in the last 20 years, but there are still a pockets of bigotry that refuse give women and POC folks a hard time just for trying to enjoy the game too.
I don’t play Warhammer, but one of the most frustrating things to me is when people who don’t understand a world don’t value lore. Lore and consistency in a world is the basis for immersion and escapism. If the rules of the world can be presented as coherent and plausible, it allows you to live within the world and expand it within your own mind when companies retcon it reestablishes the world as just a hollow device for corporations to make stories.
The story about the woman threatening violence towards her city council reminds me of how 'death threats' in internet discourse (recent example: Palworld) can instantly poison the well for either side of the conversation.
Cause as soon as someone from either side threatens someone's life, your side loses any and all credibility to the other side of the discussion and to the people on the outside of the discussion.
yep and it just lets your opponent justify calling your cause violent and dangerous
Oh yes violence is always bad right? There's never any rational good reasons for violence right?
@@ToxicAudringl there is *imo* a very big divide between liberals and conservatives on this. To average liberals, yes violence is almost always bad. To conservatives its often justifiable.
@@ToxicAudriI mean. I don’t know if saying “I will unalive the local city council that mostly deliberates zoning laws I have never cared about” will do much of anything to actually support palestine.
If you’re going to cosplay as a radical leftist for pointless internet clout with people that will never do any direct action in their lives, at least pick a relevant target to pretend to threaten for the 15 minutes of fame.
@@ToxicAudriIn that case it wasn't.
I guess Ms. Patel never heard of the phrase "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes". Yikes.
not saying she didn't do anything wrong, but using the small brown women as the example for "a extreme threat to public safety" when you have literal pro nazi protests being protected by the police maybe it's a bit indicative of who they want to make an example of for what
@@duman173she openly made a direct threat of violence and death, and said she would go to their homes, all while on camera and in front of a large group of people. She didn’t even make it sound like it was a “possibility”. It was direct. I think if anyone had said that, they would have been arrested. Regardless, it’s California so she will be out with a warning in like a week.
She said the inside thoughts out loud.
@@duman173 you also have pro Hamas protests. they have the right to do so even if you dont agree with them. especially because you dont agree with them.
@@duman173 So we should classify threat level of a person by appearance? What a perfect way to deal with crimes!!!!!!! Just awesome.
Wow, I don't think I've ever commented this much on a single video in my life, lo.
Phil, I've finished rebirth, damn near at 100% and I'm about half way through hard mode before I crashed.
I finished my 1st playthrough on Dynamic difficulty at around 123 hours. I did every side quest (minus 1) and did every mini games (except for the hard modes on 3 specific series). I explored every nook and cranny, did everything in queen's blood, finished world intel including the proto relic stuff, and of course the story.
As someone who loved OG, enjoyed the movie, played all the spin offs, read the books, and etc REMAKE and much more so REBIRTH does an incredible job of expanding the world, character, lore, and everything. There is a series of main events around chapter 7 that I think most will call "filler" but for someone who genuinely loves these characters and I was so happy for the side track and getting to just spend more time with them and their personalities.
REBIRTH is done beautifully in this regard.
I will say though immediately diving into Hard Mode after my 123 hour time sink in "normal/dynamic" I definitely burned out. Especially since HM battles are a lot more difficult. BUT there are a lot of really great features /settings that become available after beating the game the first time will make redoing a couple chapters to see certain scenes much more manageable.
OMG the captions! I'm dying! I was like wtf is the "Hong Shoe"??? Some kind of Asian cobbler famous for falling asleep?? NOOOO!
He was doing the 'honk shoo' snoring onomatopoeia... haha!
I’m a high school teacher… my school alone has a chronic absenteeism rate of 45%. Over 1000 students are chronically absent.
Better than getting shot. You’re country is broken 😢
Do you mind saying why you think it's so high?
how does stuff like this even get that bad? Don't parents get fined or go to jail for not making sure their kids go to school or something?
That is a huge school! My HS had 600 students, jeez
Wow, 45% is insane. This sounds like a collapsed system. Aren't children required by law to go to school where you are? How does this number get so high?
My favorite "retcon" was the change in the D&D racial Yuan-Ti Lore that they made to make them more diverse. Basically prior to the Ret-con, Yuan-ti were 100% evil, no ifs ands or buts. But with the introduction of yuan-ti player characters this was harder because some people loved Yuan-ti but not the evil part. So wizards basically said "hey Yuan-ti have cults, rituals, but you know what they also have, other factions that don't do those crazy messed up things and can have civil and respectable culture as well. You would have thought the world ended with some "purists" but the reality is D&D has ALWAYS been play how you want to play and the change really only said "yeah you want 'good' Yuan-ti, go for it!" Still the backlash was wild, overblown, and stupid. Same as this custodies "drama."
