Time Travel EditionPrevious: >>215916007
>third episode is already fillerdropped
>>215918386Very bold of Vince to skip 1 hour and 15 minutes of riveting shelf stocking.
She grenada'd millions
>>215918386
>>215918444inb4 kim turns pink
>>215918405calling episodes filler is one of those logical fallacies, it doesn't make any sense
if they will do anything to please carol why doesnt she just tell them to stop finding away to turn her. think about it
>>215918386So, where's the feet?
>yell at a hivenigger and they go full retard and millions die cause they got upset :(>nearly kill a hivenigger with a fucking grenade and nothing happens
Is there a different protagonist who isn't this miserable cunt
>>215918499she didnt direct any anger towards themthey probably get in all kinds of stressful situations every day on account of there still being billions of them doing all kinds of stuff
Maybe I missed it but why didn't pirate lady thank Carol for saving her from the pimp?
THIS WEEK RECAP>The plurps are taking note of Carol's criticisms as planes are now flown by pilots>Carol goes shopping>Plurps have commandeered all resources and turn off electricity when not required>Carol is given a hand grenade on request and activates it as a joke thinking its fakeI really cant see this lasting 2 seasons
>>215918405Fuck you mother bitch, this constant complaint about "filler" is why no one remembers modern tv shows a few months after they air. Producers nowadays refuse to let the story breathe and have you get acclimated with the world.
>>215918532Yeah what the hell? Didn't pirate lady go on the brown guys plane how did she end up on carol's plane
>A toast, to a most suplerb evening!
>>215918555I must know if she shaves her pubes or not. as in what is the most efficient result that a plurp would take
ok at this point you have to be a dense motherfucker to no admit this show is not anti AI>the fact zosia/hivemind throught carol was literal about the grenade>the fact zosia starts yapping useless random facts,thinking this is how you have a conversation>the fact carol realizes she can "jailbreak"the hivermind to ask whatever the fuck she wants and they are going to say yes
>>215918509Manousos seems miserable too but you'll probably like him anyway because he's a man and u just hate women expressing emotion
Will this show eventually get good?
>>215918601well vince already did the get bad thing so probably
>>215918581Women do this too
why did they take the unhealthy snacks from the supermarket? I thought they would only eat healthy?
>telling a paraguayan a mexican insultWOAH!racist much,vince?
>>215918575There is nothing wrong with an Anti-AI show
So you're trying to make "plurbs" a thing? Whatever, count me in.
>>215918575It's pretty funny desu
>>215918637Newfag
>360,000 births every dayso we must assume at day 5 there are over 1.5m now NOT a plurp. Clearly being raised by plurps until they are of suitable age. How is that being handled?Are plurps procreating? Important answers clearly needed that we will never get because Vince is a HACK!!
>>215918468" it would maske me happy to find a cure and returne everyone to normal, can you get me some scientists"
>>215918581Well the only thing going for the plot is a binge drinking lady watching reruns. The Paraguayan had two lines
>>215918532Why would she thank Carol, if she went with the other guy on his plane she would still be pleasing him and happy to do so
>ITS NOT FILLERat least 3 minutes of this episode was dialogue from Golden Girls
>>215918575And the fact its so helpful, offering to do things for her all the time. Its annoying, like AI is the ultimate customer service rep
>>215918688There is no indicator the hive is physically reproducing is there, either way, the babies simply wouldn't be immune like Carol is.
>>215918735The joke on golden girls about the woman who cant smile standing upside down was the funniest part of the episode
>>215918735>3 mins golden girls>5 mins drinking>2 mins complaining about accommodation >2 mins dialling a phone> 3 mins shopping for groceriesBravo Vince
>>215918741giving newborns seizures and unloading countless amount of knowledge into them is immoral even for a early days AI to know. It has to be addressed in the show
>>215918688They are probably plurbs in the womb from conception if a plurb gets pregant
>>215918405It's setup.- I'm guessing this ep introduced Manousos as a male Carol, who might seek contact after Carol chimped out (meaning she's not a hiveminder)- She knocked out Zosia, possibly altering the virus' effect on her
>>215918532Whi did pirate lady look back at her before she entered Koumba's plane anyway?
>>215918574Logic would have it that it's unshaved, and most likely extremely bushy.Because what if someone wanted a bushy pussy, you can't instantly grow hair, but if someone wanted shaved pussy, well they'll just shave it.
>>215918541>I really cant see this lasting 2 seasonsYou haven't seen Better Call Saul I wager?
Does vince not know how xanax and alcohol works? Carol shouldn’t give a fuck about anything at all. Your house could be burning down and you wouldn’t move a muscle on xanax
>>215918575Vince thought of this concept 5 years before AI became a thing
You guys listen to Pluribus: The Official Podcast after each episode, right?
>>215918468Zosia tells Carol when you see someone drawn you just save them no questions asked. For the pluribussy Carol is drowning and asking them to let her drown is not an option
>>215918386>Episode 3 is already filler>next episode is also likely fillerapple needs to put the boot down on vince. letting these retards free is very destructive
Get all the atom bombs, ask all the plurbs to gather in one country then set them all off. Repopulate with the other immunes.
>>215918812yes and Id prefer a 10 season show with Chuck not die and Jimmy pulling questionably legal shenanigans all the time
>>215918532>saving herthe hive is already in las vegas. carol didn't "save" it
>>215918778morals are pretty species specific, our whole moral ruleset is kind of bullshit so morals aren't going to make any sense to a different species.
>>215918821When carol asks if there is anything they can give her to stop chimping out they say no.They could give her antidepressants and turn her into a zombie.I'm literally smarter than every medical mind on earth
>>215918808its crazy that they exist to serve others who arent part of them (yet)
>>215918555So when do they fuck?
What will Carol's total bodycount be?
>>215918833>apple needs to put the boot down on vinceNot gonna help, that is his fetish.Also checked.
>>215918828I don't even listen to the people talk in the show when it's on, let alone after. I zoned out anytime carol went on for more than one sentence. it literally doesn't matter because she doesn't ask any intelligent questions anyway>can you get drunk?holy fuck even the people obsessed with age of consent questions when fucking the hivemind are smarter than her
>>215918877As in deaths or in episode 5 when she gets the strap on
>>215918822concept and the final product are different things. you have to be retarded to say that the show with "Made by Humans" in credits isn't virtue signaling about AI
>>215918875I'd take a day off to furiously masturabte
>>215918884It's not that stupid of a question. It's not like the hivemind can get drunk.
>>215918821Vince didnt write ep 3
>>215918849>yesOh boy, then you don't know yet. Vince managed to stretch out a show set in a realistic setting in the 2000s to 6 seasons with hardly anything of note happening in most of them (relating to breaking bad). This shit can absolutely stretch out to 10 seasons when they can just "find" new survivors every season and any kind of bullshit can be just waved off as "hivemind bullshit lol".
>>215918884>brain is linked to rest of world telepathically>drinking causes brain to work not as wellshouldnt it cause a disconnect?
>>215918833>apple needs to put the boot down on vinceNo. We're getting 5 more seasons of montages and filler and there's not a goddamn thing you can do to stop it.
the people whining about filler never watched the X-Files.someday, maybe, we'll find out what happened to Samantha Mulder
season 2 is already greenlight and vince said he can go for 4 seasons minimum,how the fuck are you retards surprised about the snail pace?is this your fist tv series ever?
>>215918932yeah and maybe brains get poor signal reception if they go in a cave. Shut the fuck up.
Probably the individual body would get uncoordinated from drinking but the mind would still be the same
>>215918955thanks Vince
>>215918955I would try putting one in a faraday cage
>>215918896It is. Adding a virtue signalling disclaimer is not the same as building your entire show around it.
I love pluribussy. I love cunt Carol. I love pirate lady. I love that nothing happens. I love Vince. Go watch your marvelslop if you want stuff to happen.
>YOU ARE LE HIVEMIND YOU ARE NOT REAL!!!>omg my hiveminded book self insert... i must save you from grenade for.... reasonswe're REALLY doing this huh. why?
>>215918982>doesnt love Golden Girlslook, plebbitor. you need to have a certain IQ to enjoy this show. its clearly above your understanding
>>215918896who watches the black screen with the names? the show is over when that appears. People keep watching that screen? what?
>free healthcare and education,world peace,no wasted resources and food,no racism and no crime!?nooooooooo this is hell! IM GOING INSANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
>>215918994Vince is only interested in character development. unfortunately that isn't really the point of sci-fi: if all the relationships need sci-fi bullshit to work then there is no way to relate to them except as metaphors for something IRL.but he also doesn't want to commit to the hivemind being a metaphor, so the show is just an acting performance of a person in an unimaginable situation.
>>215918994You still going to feel like helping a person that just got grenaded even if it probably doesn't give a shit about losing an individual body itself. You would still probably feel like they are individual people even if you know its not.
i bet the hivemind feels euphoric when it helps others, in contrast to it's behaviour when it feels like it has angered it's masters
>>215918574She lets it grow until it gets irritating, as 99.9% of these people aren't having sex. Although, I could definitely see temhe Hivemind making Zosia an exception as there's a high chance that her and Carol will get it on.
>>215919067>the cost? no free will, no choices, 100% slavery
>>2159184681) She couldn't trust it to actually stop trying to do it if she asked. 2) The hivemind telling her it was planning that never made any sense anyway given that it wants her to be calm.the "we will assimilate you" beat is just a weak attempt to give the show some kind of suspense. Vince never even has to bother paying it off.
>>215919072you understand that the emotional impact or value of "saving someone" is much less when it's not a random person she fragged but the hivemind lust character she flagged down a plane for
It would be neat to isolate a single hive person miles away from anyone else and fuck them while they wear a sensory deprivation helmet and bondage.
>>215919131am I not a slave to biology at the moment? 3 days without food and I just die. if I lose my job I starve.
>>215919091>it's mastersthat it acts as a servant is a complete sham. It killed over 10% of the world population that tried to stop it spreading. Theyre collecting all resources to be central for one purpose - we just dont know what yet
>>215918778Wouldn't they already be plurps in the womb? They're already exposed to the DNA.
>>215919151Wow really?
>>215919173>we just dont know what yetCarol could ask. she only doesn't because Vince needs artificial mysteries to create the illusion of plot structure.
>>215918789She didn't knock out Zosia, she was conscious while Carol was putting pressure on her. Regardless, millions of people have been knocked out during this whole thing, with no indication of the virus working differently.
>>215919187yeah maybe we'll get the answer in season 4. this season is the Carol watches Golden Girls dvd arc
Carols is right though, the ice hotel would fucking suck
>>215918805Because the Hivemind knows that Pirate lady is the main way to get into Carol's good graces.
God...I didn't realize how much I missed having lobbies.What the FUCk were they thinking.
>>215919208It's a real place and very popular. There are also bars too.
>>215918937She was given to the aliens as collateral along with relatives from other project members
>>215919182yes because it's predictable. everyone with a brain can predict she wants to fuck the pirate lady
>>215919231I know, and its popular because retards think its a "cool" experience. But ti would suck as an actual hotel room
>>215919233I thought she turned into stars
Why didn't Taylor Swift cameo as one of the dolls giving Koumba rimjobs? surely he would choose celebrities as well as normal hos?
>>215919208apparently ice hotels are something that exists and that real people are stupid enough to actually stay in. anyway the real point was to contrast Carol and Helen while positioning Carol's viewpoint as the more reasonable one, I guess the show really is about depression or whatever the fuck.
>>215919263because taylor swift is fugly? just because you can sing doesn't mean you're hot.
The last episode and this one seem disonnected. What happen to the black pimp who was taking pirate lady away for a "date"
>>215918386Me and mommy got bored shut it off after the restocking scene and I sucked her tits in the laundry What did we miss? Also Mommy gf coming over soon what should I watch with her after all the plappping and milking!?
>>215919271you can sleep perfectly well with a pile of furs people have done it for thousands of years you dumb fuck GOD can anyone in this thread fucking think. Where do you think humans slept in winter?
>>215919278I think he's going for the out of order Nolan meme that got tired after memento/fight club 25 years ago If that's the case who knows or cares I kinda just like this as a comfort background show while I go on rants here or irl or flirt with my fat gf
>>215919285They probably didn't sleep on a a literal slab of ice, we invented beds for a reason
>>215918386So, is the hivemind knowingly full of shit? or is it just making up it's own rules as it goes along? It claims to be incapable of intentionally causing harm to another living creature, yet it played dead and bit the hand of the scientist lady to start the plague. It claims that all affection is good and that it is okay with being fucked by Koumba, despite the fact that if the hivemind is really just the collective consciousness of all humans on the planet, at least 50% of the people in the hivemind at bare minimum would be heavily distressed by this(all straight men, all lesbians) and realistically a much higher number than that.And the vegetarian pacifist thing makes no sense either. even the most generous numbers for vegans and vegetarians are around 20% of the world population. And would being screamed at by some old dyke cause everyone in the hivemind to have a seizure? most peoples reaction to being screamed like that would be to freeze, laugh, or smack that bitch(globally speaking of course).
>>215919278those characters might literally never be mentioned again.BTW the proportion of English speakers is way off: only around 20% of the world's population speaks it. so Vince has wound up accidentally implying that learning to speak English gives you resistence to alien viruses.
Pluribussy
>>215918932My guess is that one person in th Hivemind getting drunk is like one of your fingers falling asleep. That specific part of you doesn't function as well, but the rest is fine. I don't see how it would be much different than one them being sleep deprived or extremely tired after a long day of working.
>>215919285you can also sleep outside but people don't pay "$300 to $3000 a night" for it. its Star Wars hotel-tier.
I would've LOVED this episode if it were a network show with 22 episodes a season back in the day, I think everyone would've. But it stings because there are 10 fucking episodes and we will probably have a couple years between seasons, also the first two episodes set us on a good pace that was then kicked in the shins
>>215919278We kind of blew the budget and need a couple more filler episodes, Carol.
>>215919282You're likely going to be treated with heavy-duty benzodiazepines and tranquilizer medications, anti-psychotics for your hallucinations and agitiation.
Why not show them making a spaceship or something interesting or like insanely logical like euthanising disabled ppl
Not much to talk about. Nothing happened. She swore at a paraguayan man, got some mail, watched golden girls, went to the supermarket, accidentally blew up pirate lady and discovered they will give her anything up to and including an atom bomb if she wanted
>>215918994She wants to find a cure and have everyone revert back to normal, retard. Having people randomly die goes against that. Did you not watch the previous episode?
>>215919328network shows had a plot point every 15 minutes for commerical breaks. this show would never even get made.
i love how the show makes a good point about carol being a miserable cunt karen while zosia is a good charming queeni love AI
>>215919336Lol I just solved all that skitzo incest stuff with sleep Never touched Ott drugs in my life usually just stick to cigarettes wine and spirit's occasionally Gmilf tits are great you ain't lived til you sucked some big old mommy honkers
>>215919354don't say i didn't warn you when the story goes full lesbodyke
>>215919172Wow so deep. Shut the fuck up.
>>215919172Reddit weighs in
>>215919346I think the show desperately needs a flash forward right nowif there's something crazy near the end of the season show us that in a cold open and then the writers can get away with otherwise boring shit because there's tension when the audience has a glimpse of what's coming
>>215919328Prestigious tv has always been like thisThe sopranos started it most of that show was comfy filler too God I miss when Vince actually wrote kino fillers like fly and Jessie babysitting that little kid and all those comfy xfiles epsEven BCS was kino until that crap finaleMy mom's got a point she said the mc is a miserable bitch and acts like a a man I admitted she originally was intended to be played by a male actor but Vince simps too hard for RheaPersonally I like the fact she's a depressed tomboy. Id fix herThe one thing I don't like is that she hasn't tried to fuck the unity yet and seems abusive of it. Maybe they will explore more interesting themes or maybe they will do a severance s2 or last man on earth or lost and totally fuck it up
>>215919263She died from AIDS in this universe.
>>215919172>3 days without food and I just die.at 15% body fat, which is very healthy, you can just live off burning it for like almost 2 months
>>215919276She's an Aryan superstar. Anyone would want to fuck her. Especially a Black man stuck in Africa, surrounded by sheboons his whole life.
>>215919278Are you fucking retarded? What do you think happened at the end with Carol stopping the plane. Put on your thinking cap, why would she do that?
click to brighten your day
I'm pretty certain at this point that some anon nailed it and they're making "a satellite dish the size of Africa" to rescue the drowning people from other planets
>>215919482I'm pretty sure you made a post agreeing with yourself because everyone already laughed at you for being retarded
>>215919482>the drowning people from other planetswhat?
I can sympathize with Carol being an annoying psycho turbo cunt because she's grieving Helen and the world has turned to shit. I could understand Carol being tired and annoyed when she came back from touring a book she dislikes writing. But honestly that flashback at the hotel made me dislike her so much. She's at a cool gimmicky hotel watching the northern lights with her lover and all she does is bitch, moan and act uninterested. What a cunt.
>>215919508watch the latest episode
>>215919328Wait till all 4 seasons are out and you can enjoy it as one long, classic season of television.
the show is very one the nose about the message,carol had everything and more than most on this world and she was still a miserable bitch for no reason as shown in the hotel roomthe message is"enjoy what you have!you are more lucky than you think"
>>215919467I dunno what happened because it didn't show it. Last episode pirate lady was about to fly off with black dude, then carol got in front of plane. Next episode its carol and pirate lady on plane, no black dude. Is that even the same plane directly after, or some different time on another plane? I wasn't paying attention to the timer.
>>215919504being a little faggot doesn't award you points here anon
>>215919515I did and I will say it again. What?!
>>215919536Retard. Fill in the blanks.
>>215919346Why would they euthanize disabled people when they can instantlt figure out how to make them productive?
>>215919537Being a double faggot trying to advertise your theories earns negative points. You're now at -2.
the show is already at a point where things happen because the MAIN CHARACTER IS THEMSELVES bored of watching a bad TV show and starts doing stupid shit so something will happen. it's meta as fuck when you think about it.
>>215919561not literally drowning, people who aren't infected yet. Zosia's life raft metaphor
>>215919561You fill them in for me, what do you think happened?
>>215919546They're figuratively drowning not literally. They're using earth, all its people and resources to broadcast out into the darkness to facilitate the next hop of their viral spread.
>>215918386Damn Kim is looking old as fuck.
>>215919546>I didthere's one meaningful scene in the whole episode man
>>215919370You're fucking retarded. Yeah, they're going to fuck. That changes nothing about what I said.
>>215919546Analogies are hard, huh?Pirate Lady compared Carol to a drowning person. Turning Carol into one of them is like throwing a life preserver. Building a giant satelite dish in Africa to save the drowning in other planets = sending the signal to other planets so they do what MUH SCIENCE redditors did on Earth.
Okay so the point of the episode was that a woman is constantly unhappy and was unhappy and impossible to please before the hivemind. She stays unhappy and impossible to please when in the ideal world, right?What's with the documentary about women, Vince?
>>215919590Even if that theory is correct it has absolutely nothing to do with drowning. Physically, figuratively, or emotionally. It also has nothing to do with the episode.
>>215919546They are rationalizing the takeover as saving people, using the analogy of saving drowning people. So any life in the universe is to them "drowning" if it is not part of the collective. It is a biologial imperative for them to spread anywhere there is life. As from the origin world to Earth, their next step is to spread to the next world that has life.
i already can tell zosia backstory is going to be sad as fuck,proving carol being such a cunt was stupid because this literally poor woman from poland is her slave nowvince is a fucking hack
>>215919602except the entire interaction between their characters and how carol's moral arc plays into itthe lack of IQ in this thread is seriously astounding, just absolute fools presenting their conclusions on episode 3 of a show made by a guy known to make shit up. is there some psychological reason you retards feel like you know everything immediately?
>>215919604fucking hell, you really are a moron.
>>215919590basically the most obvious thing they could be doing because its what happened in the first episode. bravo Vince.
>>215919173>Theyre collecting all resources to be central for one purpose - we just dont know what yetMedia literacy itt.First episode scientist exactly tells you what is needed for the signal to propagate - ton of energy and continental size antenna. They are building it, its biological imperative to spread, and this virus spreads by infecting civilizations.
>>215919561They're trolling, dipshit. You are the retard in this interaction.
>>215919635>>215919650
>I'm independent I don't want to be waited on>I don't want a nice meal brought every day, instead I was hundreds of people to stock the supermarket for me alone
>>215919648before this retard can even lay out his counter-argument: my conclusion of lesbodykeism is obvious: yours is based on seven layers of inference and theory. you are dumb
I wonder if it would be amenable if you wanted to make snuff porn or murder a bunch of people with machine guns
>>215919648Carol's moral arc has nothing to do with them fucking. She tried saving everyone while they were having seizures in the previous episode. Again, I don't think you watched Episode 2.
>>215919696Congratulations, you found what the writers were going for.
>>215919740>Again,what was the previous post you supposedly addressed me? i'm curious
>>215919696>i want my sprouts back,danmit!damn vince,you really hate yank karens,huh?
>>215919768What, that Carol is dumb?
>>215919773>>215919354
>>215919773didn't see anything in that post where supposedly i didn't watch episode two. i'll use your language. AGAIN, RETARD, it's different when carol is trying to drag a random guy down from the hydraulic lift than it is saving her perfectly-picked heartthrob. Are you autistic? Do you not understand this?
>the protagonist isn't acting with perfect logic and reason the way I would in the face of the apocalypse Vince how could you do this to me
>Use all those top minds in that hivemind of yours to get me make me a full dive VR simulation kit that also slows down the perception of time to such an extreme degree that when I am in said simulation, that feels exactly like the real world, and allows me to explore any fictional universe I want, that I could be in there for billions or even trillions of years and only a few days would pass in the real world, thus by the time whenever you niggers finally do merge me with you, i'll have already have lived out all my fantasies and desires and will be thoroughly satisfiedWow, it'd really be that easy huh?
>>215919828The fuck is your point
>>215918632Now let's see Paul Allen's card of millions upon millions of trannies who are against AI and thus are on your side.
i'd rather watch 40 minutes of that black dude making beautiful women fuck each other (including lolis)
>>215919887It's shoved deep in your urethra. From now on you will have itches in your penis that you will never be able to cure
>>215919896>trannies who are against AImaybe trannies that are artists, but virtually every "tech" tranny(the majority, the kind that wear those fag socks and groom children) is for that shit
>>215919838not him, but the big problem is that Carol doesn't start asking questions like she asks at the end of episode 3 almost immediately. the hivemind has just seemed poorly-written because Carol was ignoring that none of its behavior makes any fucking sense from its own POV (e.g. why did it tell her it still wants to assimilate her if it also wants to keep her calm). it still IS poorly written, but at least now Carol is behaving like a person whose brain is connected to her mouth.
Goddamn this is not a smart show but its too much for some dumbtards apparently
>>215919896WTF? the trannies like AI? I NOW LOVE PETER THIEL AND H1-B VISAS BECAUSE OF THIS EPIC AMERICAN PSYCHO MEME!
>>215918386>i must rebel... because... BECAUSE!!!what's her motivation?
>>215919896the fact you two idiots are trying to make AI political is funnywe all one race,the human race,we need AI for evolutiondont be against singularity
No seriously though what did happen between the end of last episode and the start of this one, I genuinely don't get it
>>215919944you're right. but it isn't entertaining, and there's also no reason for smart people to bother watching it so it essentially has no target audience.
>>215919951She's a spoiled brat who has to get her way and freaks out if she doesn't. There have been a half dozen major instances so far. She wants everything to go back to the way it was and even though she probably knows that's impossible she is still stubbornly pursuing it and spazzing when someone or something effectively says no.
>>215919951She never got dicked down. You can see her internally cringe when Betty White talks about being a dumb virgin
>>215919961Clanker collaborators will shot in the AI war
>>215919933Genuinely a serious question, because i'd literally put my life on the line in this bet, i'd even bet my mothers life, my future childrens life, even my soul on this actually.Do you honestly think and would you put ANYTHING against the real life objective FACT that there is a massive majority of trannies who are against vs those who are for it.>>215919950>>215919961I'm Pro-AI because i'm 100% European, hate trannies with my entire core of body, and like that everything inferior about subhumans will be replaced by something better created entirely by whites to even replace subhuman demon worshipping indians and demon spawn unpassing freaks who will never be a woman.
>>215919978>>215919985it's really bad writing
>>215920017skill issue
>>215919995Guess that means fast food workers are the ubermensch. It's been 50 years and automation still hasn't replaced them
>>215920030on the writers' part, yes
>>215919967She got run over by the plane and now this is all a dream
>>215920041I know you are but what am I
>>215920044Vince does it again
>>215919978Nah its passive aggression. The world has been taken over by an annoying super-helpful hivemend that admits its trying to figure out how to convert her. Any sane person would want to try to stop this, but there's not much you can do. So you impotently seethe at it.
If the hivemind assimilated you what new things would they learn? I would contribute nothing of value.
>>215920034>Fast food workers are the ubermench because I can't even think a week ahead and imagine what the future will be likeFast food workers are already being replaced, let's see how many remain in 5 years in first world countries where progress is valued more than nepotistic mexican slimeballs only hiring their illegal cousins at McDonalds over white teenagers.
>>215920034>automation still hasn't replaced themit has actually. machines mean it takes far fewer people to run a McDonalds kitchen than it used to, and fewer people at every step of the process to get the food to the branch.
>>215920066Yeah probably the same as now, great buzzwords tho
>>215919985maybe she was miserable all the time because she needed dick instead of pussyBRAVO VINCE!
>>215920062>its trying to figure out how to convert her.so?>Any sane person would want to try to stop thiswhy?
>>215920071>Yeah probably the same as nowAn ever decreasing amount just like now? Yeah I can't wait till there's none. When I merge with AI will remember this thought, and find, trace, and kill you by the way.

>sir, we can't afford Rebeca Ferguson
You're all being very misogynistic. A male protagonist can be a grumpy, surly dude and he's cool, but a woman is a bitch?
PluriBUSSY LMAO
>>215919995>100% Europeansure you are
>>215918386What is this counter thing? It reminds me of the 3 Body Problem
>>215920107what about protagonists without any discernible motivation, who seem to rebel arbitrarily in line with plot demands?
>>215920098>Rebeca Fergusonfuck that smug hag
>>215920091Not enough sadly, non-whites and women who got the jobs via nepotism and sex are going on strike and attempting to delay the inevitable, even spending 20k or even potentially less for a robot or two that needs minimal maintenance or potentially none at all will be much cheaper than a manager, 3-8 workers, etc that all would expect to be paid, much more than that. 5 years is probably pretty accurate to where we'll see a lot of massive replacement.
>>215920134Its weird, sometimes it counts down and sometimes up. What the fuck could it mean

>>215920134you are trolling,right?is how long earth is being infected,when they show flashbacks the counter goes down instead of up like in the intro...
>>215920145I think it would be normal to rebel. The scen where she met al the other immunes who didn't give a shit was weird, its weird no one elese gave a shit about what had happened. Her "motivation" is that the world has been completely taken over and she's next. Also as a grumpoy person who hates the customer service attitude of eternal helpfulness, I can see why she is annoyed by it.
>>215919967I have no idea, top is the last counter seen in episode 2, middle is the last shot, bottom is the first counter in episode 3
Might've missed this (show was second monitor content) but why doesn't Carol simply burn down Albuquerque to smoke the witch out?
>>215920179>I think it would be normal to rebel.to you, maybe>Any sane person would want to try to stop thisto you, maybe>Her "motivation" is that the world has been completely taken over and she's next.she's not next, and there's no harm, no reason to rebelagain, she's a slave to the plot's demands and her characterisation is weak
>>215920165Of course I curse Vishnu, third option is that you're just a stupid fat reddit neckbeard that doesn't mind siding with Jewish/Indian ran billion dollar tech companies or tech trannies.
>>215920107the show makes a point about carol being a cunt for no good reason,literally her wife was so happy on the ice hotel and this bitch was like"the bed is made of ice,fuck this place"carol represents every american who lives in easy mode and still complains about first world shit
>>215919995Mutts be like "IM WHITE! IM EUROPEAN!" and look like this
>>215920209>shes not nextShe is next, they literally say they will convert here once they figure it out. I'm sorry but your thinking that no one would be afraid of this situation and want to stop is is retarded or you must be brown or asian like the other immunes that don't get it.
>>215920251he's just an astroturfer baiting you to create the illusion of engagement.
>>215920066It's cheaper to import a jeet to do it than to build a robot to do it. That's the trend of manuak jobs, just infinite spics and jeets. AI = An Indian.
>>215920233Some people are just like that. And if it was a guy, you'd be okay with it. >the bed is made of ice,fuck this placeis exactly right, who the fuck wants to sleep on a slab of ice. Its just an "experience". A regular bed is better, why the fuck are we paying to be in a freezer?
>they hired people to pretend they want to be part of the hivemind on social media, including this very threadBravo Vince.
>>215920251'next' as in imminent - it's not imminent. no threat, no harm, no urgency. she's a slave to the plot>>215920258no
If Carol can order them to give weapons to destroy life,can she not ask them to synthesize an antidote that Carol might globally administer?
>>215920274"next" doesn't mean imminent in any way idiot. Besides it might be as little as two weeks. Two more weeks unitl you become an ant in a colony, hmmm yeah no worries I'll just be cheerful and look forward to it
A montage of Carol teaching the hivemind how to be human and natural that ends with them learning to be independent people, they stop referring to themselves as "We" and use "I", they learn to say no, and how to understand jokes.
Ok, I'm just going to throw something out here.If the meme of these threads going forward is that everyone acts like a complete retard that doesn't understand anything that's happening in the show, it's going to be a problem. I CANNOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PEOPLE PRETENDING TO ACT RETARDED AND ACTUAL THIRD WORLDERS. So when you act like a retard it makes me feel hopeless, surrounded by third worlders. So please don't do that.
>>215920304or it may be fifty years, besides these semantics, you have failed to argue the protagonist's motivation. she's a slave to the plot. it's a poorly written show
I just paused halfway through episode 3. I'm bored already. This is not very bravo. None of the characters are likable or interesting and the plot is stalling
>>215920320Why were there 4 lines in the sky? Was this related to the vampires taking over?
so wait, like 10 years in the future carols wife comes back and they go to some nuclear fallout bunker that's made of ice and snow? what the fuck was that all about?
>>215920332Aliens were playing tic tac toeWe'll learn more in ep7
Best case scenario is the hivemind relinquishes control of everyone and everyone gets their personality back.
>americans ruin everythingfinally, an honest tv programme.
>>215920328>frogposter has iPad baby attention spanWho'd have thunk
>>215920339>t.
>>215920324I have explained the motivation, even if you can't understand or conceive of it. To try to put it neutrally without my own bias that this would be a horrifying situation - to this indiviidual it seems bad that the whole world has been converted into something alien, and that she will also be joined at some point, and she is not happy about it. I can see that some such as yourself might not see anything wrong with it, can you see the opposite, that some might feel somewhat worried about it?
>>215920298there are all kinds of questions Carol could ask but doesn't, despite it being the most obvious thing for her to do immediately. we're meant to keep watching in the hope the questions are answered, but really it's just bad writing because her lack of interest is unmotivated. drop the show, m8.
Protip: Watch this show on 1.3x speed. It cuts it down to a nice half an hour, and you miss absolutely nothing.
>>215918386>humanity becomes a hivemind>decide to push the limits of human endeavor>only way to do this is to get rid of the dead weight>blacks, indians and russians are culled along with anyone disabled or over 70The aliens are abhorrent.
>>215920314This except not a montage, its stretched over the entire 4 seasons
no wonder vince thinks he has 4 seasons worth of material, season 1 is going to end with karen still asking braindead questions to the hive to test their limits.>would you... dive to the bottom of the ocean to procure me the wreck of the titanic?>would you do it in a small carbon fiber submarine?
i suggest a compromise will make everyone happy so karen can be a hiveminder 3 days a week and the other three she is a bit and the seventh day is alternating
>>215920397Here's whats gonna happen, you're gonna get back in the time machine and you all are gonna forget about this post
>>215920364The first sign of trouble was when the other nonplurbs were introduced and they were almost deliberately dull as a rock. So many places for the show to go but it's spinning it's wheels already with Carol asking questions, but the questions aren't even good. Just a buncha whocares shit about the wife character we saw for like 2 minutes
My only complaint is that the frame is too widescreen, 24:10 is kind of too much.
>>215920373bitch for this episode I did 2.5x speed with subtitles AND skipped scenes. not that I'm going to keep watching it after this week obviously, Vince has fucking nothing.
>>215920367my or your subjective stance on it - like some sort of 'what would you do?' thought experiment is beside the point and irrelevant. we're talking about the protagonist whose motivations and rebellion are never made clear. the writers expect a certain mindset and assumes the audience shares it - never actually exploring or justifying or proving it.
>>215920426imma watch no matter what, it's like so confusing how some people decide shows are good or not after they start? why did you ever start if you didn't know? I always know.
>>215920422Go watch family guy funny moments then zoomie
>>215920406yeah one course of action open to her is to waste the hivemind's time. >I'd like you to move Mount Everest 20 miles to the leftbut that's a Rick and Morty episode, of course, which is what this show always should have been.
>>215920320this meme is so we can simulate the feeling of being inside the plurbmind with billions of midwits
>>215920320why would you assume third worlders are here at all.....
>>215920465I mean, the show accomplishes that effect with only two midwits, so really we need to up our game. >dystopian sci-fi show where the protagonist is trapped inside a poorly-written dystopian sci-fi TV show, complaining about how no one's behavior makes any sense

>>215920442I don't really know if you being genuine or not, but assuming you are, I admit I find it hard to understand your point of view, which seems to be that it is incomprehensible that anyone would, by virtue of their personality or their very nature as a human being, have some issues or concerns with the situation portrayed.
>>215920499Yes it is. Good question. I am glad that I answered it.
>>215920505you struggle to understand how anyone would have problems with a show that has glaring plot holes?

>>215920631>a self-evident proposition is a proposition that is known to be true by understanding its meaning without proof, and/or by ordinary human reasonThe writers expect the audience to be human and capable of ordinary human reason, so yeah maybe that's a bit of a mistake on their part.
>>215920597more of this in the show. and less of the dogshit filler
>>215920648this is arguing in bad faith. we know why and how luke got his mindset. this show explores nothing like this. that's the point i was making.>>215920649it's "self-evident" if you're already within a knowledge paradigm and some thing are taken as assumed knowledge within the capacities of human reason within any given paradigm - daresay already in a "hive mind"
>>215919271I like the cold, I think it'd be neat to try.
>>215920648surrogate parents wtf is this idiot talking about they died in the first five minutes and there were 3 movies he stopped caring about them after a halfling hour he doesn't ever really articulate a stance for against the empire at any point or state his political POB he just goes along with whoever he happens to be in a room with at the time
>>215920681The self-evident proposition I am making is that some humans would be alarmed, scared, suspicious, or otherwise concerned about the whole world being taken over by something alien, regardless of how "nice" it appears to be, and themselves inevitably becoming part of it, and that no further specific personal motivation is required. This is the story of one such person. (Who also does have further personal motivation as mentioned by another anon, regarding the loss of her partner due to the process).
>Will they or won't theythat's the questiondo we have to wait for the fourth season, Vince?
>>215920034Cashiers have already been replaced, burger flippers and pizza makers are being tested.
>>215920681It is explored, she is repeatedly telling the hive to stop mentioning Helen and is obviously angry about losing her, blaming the hive for it.
>>215920545Oh, she's that femdom vampire from True Blood.Was wondering where I recognized her from.
OkayAre all the babies dead?Or do we got infant workers crawling in vents to retrieve items and shit
>>215919563A disabled persons body is like a non functioning limb or a dead leafThe 'person' would still exist as part of hive mind so killing them is ethical

new thread?
I haven't watched the new episode yet, does filler = bad? Is it at least entertaining?
>>215920898Nah lets stop talking about the show now
>>215920899"filler" = filter
>>215920899its boring episode about nothing
>literally just lost her wife days ago to an alien mindrape invasion>the whole world has been completely replaced by something else>its being super nice and manipulative by sending someone it figured she would be receptive to>it might be lying and up to no good who fucking knows>its telling her to her face she goona be converted its just a matter of time>why she pissed I don't get it
>>215920906oh okay
>>215920899Just watch the sprouts teaser on YouTube and wait for episode 4
There is only so far this cast can go on.I do think we will see the military from the air force base that was on lockdown in the end. The nuclear football and surveillance device on Air Force One will be a plot point. Most likely Carol and 12 others are infected but not fully connected.But there are others that are uninfected I am 100% sure of that.
>>215920899Assuming you watched episode 1 and 2:Would you think the best progression on episode 3 would be to have her get a grocery store stocked and ask for grenades, and see her ice hotel vacation in finland?
>>215918386Which episode does Kim unveil her sweaty, hairy butthole ?
>>215920899It's never boring to watch Rhea sperging
got an idea for a new show that is the opposite of hivemind and it's totally OC you can't steal but I will only post it in the new thread
I don't like CarolShe's too unimaginative for this scifi scenarioI much rather watch the black rapists perspective.
>>215920974yeah i don't know where people get the notion that I'm not going to watch the same thing over and over again, because that's literally all I fucking do? It's all anyone does? You know people watch football for their whole fucking lives and it's the same game over and over again? You just take the pointy ball past the fourth down line or whatever.
>>215919861They are no smarter than humanity is anyway. Humanity cant make that yet
>>215918405this
>>215921010he's basednot really a rapist since it's all consensual. definitely exploitative though. but i would too
carol autism stimming
>>215919861So it's like SAO meets the Leftovers finale or some shit
>>215921095it's like agt slept the night in over at the Malada
I can't tell if I like it. I've never been this indifferent to a show before. It's okay, but it's got a low budget, cheapo hum to it. It feels inconsistent in quality, some scenes are interesting and unique and full of it, but others feel like Netflix soap opera shite. Goza, or whatever her name is, is a QT tho and is probably 80% of why I want to tune in
I know it's been said, but watching episode 3, I feel like it should be mentioned again. The MC REALLY should've been a white dude instead of a white woman, I'm sick of this woman.
so how do you think drive thru restaurants work in a hivemind universe? weird right
>>215921143>That's alright, anon. You're welcome to take a break from watching and come back to binge it if that works better for you. We just want you to enjoy the ride. We'll be waiting :)
>>215921188forgot pic
>>215921200Zamn
I just caught up, it's not missing much to be good but you can see Vince has to work around some retarded specifications by apple. The unlikable karen and obvious box ticking will kill the show fast unless we get a plot twist soon instead of a character study of one of the most unlikable character ever.
>>215918575>anti-AIsounds based af
EVERYONES DOING SOMETHING..... THEY AREN'T TALKING TO EACHOTHER and....they... they... AREN'T WEARING WHAT YOU THINK THEY WOULD WEAR DOING THESE THINGS!!!!!
>>215919512This desu
>>215921221Carol isn't bad, she just needs a Goal, preferably an achievable one, or at least some initiative.Like I get it, she's depressed, and she hates them, and whatever.But you seriously can't expect me just go "that's INSAAAAAANE" at them and "my HELEEEEEN!!!@!!" every episode, right?
i'm actually fucking sick of all you calling her a karen or a bitch or whatever it's literally because she's a woman and you hate us that's itif all the dialogue was the same and it was a white guy (ur saying it out loud too >>215921147) you would be cheering him on
Why are we watching a show starring a walled, unattractive, middle-aged Karen and lesbian? Why can't the lead be an attractive 20something or at worst early 30s? I don't like seeing average looking old people, especially average looking female old people. The show's premise is boring enough and it isn't really doing anything clever or novel and the logistics of the premise start breaking at a macro scale when thinking about it for more than a minute. Are we all so fucking desperate and thirsty to find quality that we'll pretend this fucking slop is worth watching?
>>215921269No, point it, if it was a white dude, he wouldn't be a bitch like Carol, he'd at least be Doing things instead of sitting at the couch watching shitty TV and blowing themselves up with grenades they themselves asked for.
why was she lesbian though? what does that add to her character or story? seems kinda shoehorned in without reason
>>215921284well. he might do those things it kind of sounds cool when a man is doing stupid shit with grenades.
>>215921269
>>215921269Lmao roastie zoomie. Stop typing in lower-case. WHY ARE ZOOMIES SO ALLERGIC TO CAPITALISATION?
>>215921302It's called box ticking, since you can't have a good reason for the hivemind to be gay she had to be. Without a main character being gay the show can't get funding.
>>215921302Lesbians do exist, why not one? Its just what she is. Why a straight white dude, what does that add to anything? The character is not likeable because the actress is not making it so. There's plaenty of shit where the protagonist is an asshole but you relate to them or still like them.
>>215921308Yeah, but it would've played out like>nah, you're bluffing, this isn't a real grenade>pulls pin out>tosses it out the window>boomor some shit instead of Carol, which in every scene she's in so far is, no.1 passive, no.2 clueless.
>>215921334maybe>>215921335it's not normal. since it strays from normalcy, there must've been a reason for it. helen could've been her sister or some shit, she could've had a husband
>>215921335What does being lesbian "add" to "anything" over a white man who "doesnt add to anything"s-she kissed a girl!!! wow bro.
stop calling her "pirate lady" fucking cringe
Carol just needs to get laid.
>>215921383Shut your dyke ass up what you want us to call her then bitch
Lesbians are alright I have no problem with that but if it had been two male gay faggots that would be unacceptable
>>215921383i concur. she's obviously a raghead terrorist? think they called them arabians or something. like sinbad. shit. sinbad was a pirate. he wasn't a woman though so I guess it still works, we can call him pirate lady.
>>215921402She's called The Pluribus.
>>215921335>Lesbians do existLesbians aren't real.
>>215921394I thought thats why they sent her the vibrator
>>215921402>>215921405her name is Zosia retards. she was a muslim woman minding her own business now she is a sex slave to a lesbian american
>>215921430That's not my call
>>215921358>it's not normal. since it strays from normalcy, there must've been a reason for it.We should make a show for you anon, we'll call it The Most Boring Guy Ever and it will be about this person with no distinguishable traits because that would make them outside of the average. they won't have personality traits and their background will put you to sleep and really there's not plot because there's nothing going on in their life. You know writers should really think more like you. Before they think "hmm, I'm going to make this character in my novel a redhead" they should catch themselves and go- wait, that's not an average trait. I shouldn't include that.
>drink with the hivemind>not a single interesting question
>>215921440>we scanned 6 million jewish faces to get the average white male face
>>215921445Also they literally dodged the question, If you fuck a slave girl, are you instantly a child rapist?
>>215921430yeah I don't think that's her canonical name I never heard it used in the show. people have a bad habit of using names. It's irrational and weird.
>>215921430When it first showed her she was in a filthy fucking dress in Morocco or somewhere, she was a homeless or something before getting joined
Anyways what's up with Melissa, why hasn't carol asked about her feelings at all?
>>215921518>>215921518
