Just vague memories from a random on the web. But IIRC, they were not welcome in part because of corruption of the previous leader's administration, and one of the first things Zalensky did was crack down on that.

Is that the one with the tooth brush scene?

Am I the only person who heard this in the voice of the character in the pfp?

The cost is less from the design and more from the safety regulations. Best case scenario the state just starts making nuclear power plants, it's just not a good idea to mix profit incentive with nuclear.

Yeah, they had shifted for a Trademark strategy a few years before it happened. It was pretty clear they weren't interested in making it happen again, or had finally got pushback from the folks they donated to about it, or something. And if Disney decided to drop it, I don't think WB, with less than half the cash, will decide to try it.

Pretty hard to detect. But.... probably easier than finding the petunias I guess.

There is an argument, but I don't think it's convincing. The single best way to cripple their most deadly foe (so far) is to be less evil and make everyone's lives less shit. They could hamstring chaos by simply ceasing their eternal crusade and focusing on improving the average peon's life. The Imperium as a state only exists because of a "well-intentioned" checks notes.... galactic crusade of conquest and omnicide against any non-human. In pretty much any other media they are unambiguously the bad guys, having other bad guys to fight doesn't change that. They are literally a characture of every evil space empire. We just get fed so much propaganda that it starts to work a little.

To be fair, the timeline fuckery all only started because that tome cop tried to prevent it. He's the reason she's a temporal disaster to begin with.

Pineapple is so metal, fucking fruit that tries to eat you back.

It depends on the story. Some genies were evil and imprisoned to stop dicking around, and would screw over anyone who they offered wishes to. Some were nice and imprisoned by nefarious folks to extort wishes from them. These ones would usually monkey paw assholes but not kind folks.
