  • I’m black, and I loved Dragon Ball, and back in the late 90s early 2000s when it was airing on Cartoon Network it was pretty much popular with everyone.

    I can’t talk for everyone but the saiyan and Frieza arc in Dragon Ball z really stuck with me. Goku knew nothing about his family his people and their history. Then all of a sudden they show up and reck havoc on his life. Eventually he learns that his people were essentially enslaved and exported around the universe as babies to work for their slave owner Frieza, and when they started to organize they were wiped out. This arc ends with a final showdown between the Goku who now knows his history and the last of his race facing down the slave master Frieza who thought he was nothing but a monkey.









  • Pittsburgh has some of the worst drivers I’ve ever seen. Running red lights and waiting for yield signs to turn green is the norm there. I’ve seen at least 5 accidents caused by a Pittsburgher stopping at the end of an entrance ramp to a highway.

    Unfortunately my car was finally sent to the body shop after 7 years dodging people, and 3 months from leaving the city by a lady who decided to make a left turn from the right lane. Luckily I always have a dashcam running, no one was hurt and the police wrote her a ticket. This lady was a high level Karen, and went ballistic when I asked if she was ok after she crashed into me. Best part was when her husband showed up 10mins later and apologized to me for his, “dumbass wife” who just knocked the mirrors off his truck.







  • I understand, and I definitely don’t fault anyone who likes the show or stuck through it. I just feel like too many shows I’ve been watching lately hasn’t been worth the slog to get through, and it’s been killing my excitement for franchises.

    For example I haven’t watched house of the dragon because game of thrones rushed ending, Picard season 3 because of season 2, and I fell off the marvel train after Wanda vision, falcon and winter soldier, and she hulks endings, all shows that either ending in nothing burgers or wtf I guess we need to end somehow.



  • I don’t think anyone who sat down and watched through the first 3 episodes can honestly say the show is being review bombed. Im enjoyed Ashoka and Boba Fett and I honestly have no interest in wasting my time finishing the show.

    It’s like the nothing burgers of the Disney star wars comics. The Darth Vader series was great, and I love the idea of bleeding light sabers red. But everyone other series leading into the last Jedi was a waste of time, and I bought and read every single one.
