Right, but what about the mimic plant? It mimicks whatever plant is near it. And it can mimic plastic plants. https://www.vox.com/down-to-earth/2022/11/30/23473062/plant-mimicry-boquila-trifoliolata

I don't think that's fediverse and I don't think their modlogs show up on Lemmy

Children always looked stupid, you just didn't notice it when you were a child

Tipping rewards the boss. If the workers don't get tipped, the boss has to make up the difference.

[–] exocrinous@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

Bosses are legally required to make up the difference to minimum wage if a tipped employee doesn't get enough tips.

If I tip a cashier, then we're taking money away from the working class to give to the working class, which means there's no net change. But if I refuse to tip, the boss has to make up the difference and the working class gets money from the capital class.

Therefore tipping is class treachery. You're depriving the workers of chances to take money from the bourgeois.

Australia doesn't do tips. I think they're saying move to Australia or you're a class traitor.

Generously described as a theory, accurately described as a hypothesis

Well, if I was gonna have sex with a robot I'd want it to be at least as smart as a human adult. A purely preprogrammed experience sounds like no fun at all, and if it has intelligence comparable with any member of the animal kingdom that member better be human or I'm gonna feel really weird.

Iron Man: they are executives at the same company that developed the tech

Black Panther: the bad guy literally just couped the government of Wakanda

Ant Man: the villain is a former business parter of Pym

Dr Strange: they trained at the same monastery and the bad guy trained for longer

I think these fights are boring most of the time, but they're not implausible. They have plenty of plot justification.

Also the character who copied Hawkeye was a girl who was inspired by his heroism and spent years learning archery and martial arts and still sucked at being Hawkeye when she met him
