  • This is the power gem, not the reality stone, in the comics the colors used to be different, and earlier in the story it is reasoned that Drax is too dumb to do more than subconsciously tap the power, so while inside him it should be more inert.

    Although I just checked the wiki to make sure I’m not wrong on the internet, and came across this:

    For some time, Drax tapped into the Power Gem to be the world’s strongest green-skinned simple-minded powerhouse (during a period when the Hulk had much higher intelligence than usual).[15] The Gem usually remained in his stomach, but twice he was forced to regurgitate it from a blow to the gut, first from Gamora[16] and later from Thor.[17] After retrieving the Gem the second time, the Infinity Watch had the Gem installed in Drax’s belt instead.[18]

  • I saw it when I was rather young but I thought it was pretty good, apparently people thought it’s edgy.

    That’s me, I’m people. Same as you, I remember watching it when I was young and thinking it was a cool mature thriller, but I rewatched it last year for the first time and I was honestly a little shocked at how edgy it seems. Like the first 30 minutes really hammer how much trauma Evan went through, and it just felt really heavy handed.

    edit: to be clear I don’t hate The Butterfly Effect, I just remember distinctly thinking how edgy it was on review



  • Calling out the problem is not saying they are irredeemable.

    In one post I read, a user commented that he’s happy with women having fewer rights and left “barefoot and pregnant” by authoritarian, Republican policies, because he wants a cadre of “slave girls” serving him. Outside of the virtual locker room, there are men who have reportedly been red-pilled into anti-feminist mass killings and murdering their own spouses.

    These are the men swimming in the electoral pool. It’s not too late for it to be drained.

    Like, yes, these people absolutely do need to be flushed. Nowhere does that mean they are permanently branded Bad Forever, you’re just making that up.
