Reply to TIL in 1962 a General Electric engineer named Nick Holonyak developed the first LED light bulb capable of emitting visible red light. The same bulb was used in the 1964 stop animation animated TV special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer for Rudolph’s bioluminescent nose. by undergroundgeek

I see people blaming the head coach, is this not on the defensive coordinator? What happened

Reply to 1 - Morocco are the first African team to qualify for the semi-final of a World Cup tournament - each of the previous three African sides to reach a quarter-final were all eliminated at this stage (Cameroon in 1990, Senegal in 2002 and Ghana in 2010). Magical. by dragon8811

Lmao just do 2 seconds of research online, any news source you want, idealy middle eastern:
There is drinking in religious countries. There is prostitution ( one night marriages) in middle eastern countries.
Not saying EVERYONE does it. Not judging right or wrong. But do they Practice what they Preach: NO. Just the way no one does.
Cultural sensitivity is one thing, this is just hypocrisy.

Idk I get that they’re different but it’s still an entire season.
Even in shows like Parks n Rec, which I love, I give people a heads up that season 1 is a slow start w an unlikeable protag.
Regardless of how good the show gets, and how well they develop characters - at the end of 10ish hours of tv, it’s possible you don’t really connect w any of their characters , bc they’re rushed.
Also, often the show doesn’t follow the logic, worldbuilding and stakes it tries to establish.
