In The Prophecy (1995), Christopher Walken played a corrupted Gabriel who is jealous of humans because God stopped talking to him (?). Viggo Mortensen plays Satan, not exactly sympathetically, but not too unrelatable. Constantine (2005) had a similar sub-plot With Tilda Swinton playing a jealous Gabriel, and of course Neo as Constantine.

I'm not an expert, but I was thinking it probably has to do with muscle memory. If you're only doing "leg day" one day a week/month, then your body isn't used to it, so it feels harder to do.

Gen-Xer here, and I used to hate those furry-tailed rats. In one of my old apartments, one lived in the eaves of my building near my window and used to wake me up chewing on shit all the time. I've worked 2nd and 3rd shift jobs most of my adult life, and have found it hard enough to get other humans to respect my sleep time, let alone some rabid rodents that everyone else thinks are cute. I'm pretty much indifferent to them now, not being a property owner, but I can definitely understand why people hate them.

There used to be a clip on Fu Kung (remember that?) where a dude set up a trap on his back porch with a basket and some bungie cords, and when the squirrel took the bait, the guy cut the tether and flings the unsuspecting little bugger like 30 or 40 yards.

Why is this story getting downvoted? Do the shitlibs here on Lemmy really still carry water for Grampa Joe? And by "shitlibs" I mean you bougie, pretend liberals who wave the rainbow flag while still supporting a warmongering old racist POS. This is what the DNC gets for fucking Sanders over twice.

I agree, but the intended chilling effect has been more successful than not, in my opinion. That and the recent "coincidental" deaths of certain whistleblowers.

It all falls under the subject of corruption, I just didn't want to leave anyone out.

Lawlessness, or more specifically the idea of "might makes right". They just convicted Trump of 34 counts of fraud. Will he go to jail? Probably not. Our Congresspeople have rewritten the laws to allow themselves to do insider trading to enrich themselves to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. There is a profession in this country called a "lobbyist", which is just a professional bribery middleman. The Supreme Court (not wanting to be left out of the so called "side hustle" culture), just two days ago, deemed it legal for government officials to accept "gratuities". I wish this was a fucking joke.

The stat that I had read was that on average Texans own guns at a rate of 4 per person, so for every person that doesn't own any, there has to be someone taking up the slack. The joke is that Texans are a distillation of what America is to the rest of the world: loud, obnoxious, and absolutely sure they're right.

The point I was trying to make is that even though Canadians own a shitload more guns per capita, they have far less gun violence than us.

I used to be anti-gun, until I found out that Canadians own guns at the same rate as TEXANS. We Americans are losing our fucking minds. We're kept at each other's throats to distract us from the fact that the 1% are fucking us all over.

Laptop? How quaint. But my implant that connects me to the Musk Hivemind can project a laptop into my visual cortex to approximate a laptop, though in 2054 the most popular interface is similar to the dildocycle that Mr. Garrison invented on episode 76 of South Park.
