@Lalombowski @DrTOMontgomery See? This is what I mean, I can literally say China does awful shit and still be accused of being a shill

@Barkeye52 @DrTOMontgomery Ya'll so ignorant while China destroys the oceans.

Sick of seeing this account spread misinformation: Norway kills more whales than any country in the world.
Last year, they slaughtered ~429 whales—many were pregnant.
Norway ~63% Antarctic krill catch
China ~24% (CCAMLR latest data)
It is misleading to only mention China
David Walpiri@DWalpiri
Whales migrate to Antarctica to feed on krill so they can build up energy to breed When countries like Norway stopped whaling in 80s, we thought whale populations would bounce back & they did Now Chinese vessels are going after the krill without really knowing how much is left

@k1tty_bug @entomemeology Honeybees are only considered endangered in the European wild, they have a managed population in the US due to also functioning as livestock
You also can't evaluate species purely on whether or not you "like" them
English
@Barkeye52 @entomemeology Like wasps? Bth I hate wasps, they eat trash and don’t even benefit certain other species (the Australian stingless bee literally turns roadkill into something better even if their hives look like a biohazard.) also honey bees have been labeled an endangered species

Possibly the most blatantly patriarchal self-insert trope there is (regardless of who you self insert into)

Favorite characters who are like this?
English
@Barkeye52 @entomemeology Over populated and in some cases harmful, like freshwater sturgeon fish, or pantry moths. I would literally prefer honey bees over pantry moths any day.

@mj_silverman @temp6t I disagree, it still has that niche but that niche is getting more well... Niche, and it faces competition with Toxapex for the same role, as well as there being general defensive pokemon like Alomamola that can substitute
English
@Barkeye52 @temp6t Blissey still is the best pure special wall and it would be shocking if it ever gets usurped. It might be hard to fit for most teams, but is by far the best mon for its role

@entomemeology HONEY BEES ARE NOT FUCKING INVASIVE, they’re one of the very few reason we have fruits and vegetables

@smokeyjinn I thought blackwashing wasn't racist because it isn't made for hateful reasons
English
On twitter if you draw an asian or white character with a slight tan they call you a blackwasher

@actualgayrobot @freakenomenon These are the kinds of people that read Catcher in the Rye and immediately go on a killing spree.

i wanted to agree and then op proceeded to make some of the most egregiously disgusting blatant misinterpretations of the story ive ever seen in the replies. you cannot trust anyone
Mini Modu@MinModulation
the way people talk about I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream as some esoteric secret text is funny because it's like 20 pages long. you can read it in ten minutes
English
@freakenomenon The thing that annoys me most is people physically unable to suspend their disbelief that ai can develop emotions. Like irl that's probably true, but so many stories are written based on that idea

@RandyS0725 Wait, so if the dino dies can she link with something/someone else or does her power just stop working?
English
Some have ASSUMED Moon Girl gained her intellect from Terrigenesis, but she's always had a genius IQ.
The power Lunella Lafayette actually does gain from her Inhumans lineage, is a psychic link w/ Devil Dinosaur & swapping minds w/ him, when under emotional stress. #Marvel
Shiny Lapras@Aurelion_Sussy
@ThatComicFan3 Pretty sure her super power is being a super genius. Devil Dino has nothing to do with that btw.

I'm going to admit something here: I'm not sure which shows actually have this structure. Maybe I've just been lucky.

For those unaware, Surf Dracula is the single most accurate description of how our media has become mediocre. Don't forget it. You see it everywhere.

@mj_silverman @temp6t Chansey and Blissey are actually doing pretty bad now. As attacks get stronger resists become a lot more important. Chansey especially is doing comparatively worse because running eviolite means you're not running heavy duty boots

@temp6t Zapdos, Chansey/Blissey, Ttar, Heatran, Gliscor, Garchomp, Lando, Torn-T, Ferrothorn

@dannyjofus @zweiwalker89607 Not really. Manaphy lays eggs, Zerudo Is explicitly from a tribe of pokemon, the anime had multiple Volcanion
English
@zweiwalker89607 mythical would, presumably, be the moniker for 'actually one of a kind pokemon'
English
Tbh there are also implications in the stories of several Legendaries that make it only natural to assume they're one of a kind beings.
🏳️⚧️ Nina 🏳️⚧️@Nina_once_Again
People rly kept pushing the "LEGENDARIES R SUPPOSED TO BE ONE OF A KIND" agenda As we have an esteemed adventurer implying that no some of them are not one of a kind lol

Some C&A strips just be Bill Watterson venting until he remembers it's a children comic and he needs to add Calvin doing a little Ay Caramba in the corner
Cable Beard@llcthecableguy
@politicalmath It took me about 5 minutes working a full-time, terrible corporate job and having kids to realize that Calvin's dad was the hero of Calvin and Hobbes.

Yes they are over-hated and more fun to play than oras frlg and especially hgss
Hidden Power Podcast @ PAX East@HiddenPowerPod
More than 4 years have passed since the release of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl ✨ Do you think these games are over-hated?

@KlyptoKicks > tomboys can flirt too

see? was it really that hard? i'm not asking for much. a different character is all you needed to do, and yet you people decided to blackwash umamusume we already have.
