You’re being obtuse about the definition of “go to war”. If they invade your country and you fight back you’re still going to war.

This is slightly extreme. Go tell Europeans in the late 30s and early 40s that there’s no justification for going to war against Germany. There are always exceptions.
Sports subs are the #1 reason I still occasionally check in on Reddit. I’ve removed every non-sports sub. Sports subs can also be sorta “reddity”, but it’s still my favorite place for news and discussion.
Holy shit yes. I thought Way of Kings was incredible, and thought I found my favorite book series. Then the next book was fine, and the third book was so insufferable I quit after 800 pages. Never even made it to book four, which I hear is even worse.
It’s an ill wind that doesn’t blow somebody good.
I think happiness is a misunderstood concept. It’s something that many people take for granted when they’re young, but as they get older it seems to wane and comes with a lot more caveats. Your baseline used to be happy, but now your baseline is more neutral. You spend 80% of your time being neither happy nor sad. The idea of being happy all the time is sort of a farce, and I tend to assume people who claim to be are either lying or stupid.
Happiness is more about taking a step back from your life and viewing it all in one big picture. If you like what you see, then you can consider yourself happy, even if that doesn’t mean you’re smiling about it right this moment.
The story arcs are some of the best I’ve ever seen. I don’t really think any other sci-fi shows stands up to Farscape’s drama. There’s something incredibly unique about this show.
This is one of my favorite shows ever, but every person I’ve recommended this show to has had a weird reaction to it and only made it through a handful of episodes.
People have a hard time with the fact that there are essentially muppets as main characters. The first season is also slightly janky. The production quality really picks up in the later seasons.
I think you need an open mind to appreciate this show. It’s very cleverly written, and very rewarding. But it is VERY quirky and even cringey at times.
I really liked The OA, but I thought the end of season 1 was the absolute worst, most cringe-inducing nonsense I’ve ever seen in my life. I’m not even being hyperbolic. It almost completely ruined what I thought was a great show before that. Haven’t given season 2 a chance because of it.
My wife found an Emerald ring she really liked from more of a boutique style jewelry store owned by a young woman. It had the vibe of a brick-and-mortar Etsy store. We went to a few old school jewelers and hated the experience. It felt like we were being scammed by some slimy diamond dealer.
