Ever heard the criticism about some movie villains being “comically evil and unrealistic”? Well, tell those critics you’re sorry. Like even the MCU villains are realistic enough at this point. Matter of fact, Obadiah Stane is the perfect representation of one of these evil motherfuckers. That’s why he’s the scariest villain in the whole franchise.

Wasn’t there a recent James Bond movie about some guy controlling the water supply, which was less bad than an actual dictator’s plan?

That is a good point worth considering… Though I just think he wants to shove some Fintech in there and thinks the name X is “cool”.

Oh fuck. I didn’t know this was around the same time. I literally tell everyone about how shit FB is and this proves it 1000x.

If you have a daughter or are a daughter, you should hate meta. They’re inspiring a generation of self hating women and they have the data to prove it.

Where does it say that in the article ? I wholeheartedly believe “”“meta”'" would do that, but I didn’t see it mentionned here.
