I watched the entire thing. I feel dumber and less informed now than I was before watching. My conclusion: both candidates should be gently placed in a field and set upon by dogs or perhaps wolves.

I did notice one thing - in terms of correcting outright bullshit when possible and asking decent questions I thought the moderation was considerably better than the Biden-Trump one and it did not matter at all, because both candidates were doing the “answer the question you wish they’d asked” thing everyone has now internalized as the least risky way to handle these things. Harris did a slightly different version of this where she adds a “I’m gonna tackle that point by point” type preamble before not doing that.

really enjoying it. the s2e7 antics made me want to revisit s1 again.

I have a source with knowledge of the artist and they are convinced they did this in a deliberately fucked up way just to fuck with the royals.

so what is being proposed here? prequel? sequel? “what if” where gollum gets to run off and open a diner?

Thank you!!

I have seen a lot of “oh this is kind of neat” posts on here that I can’t square with the over-the-top Simpsons content.

not that the trial matters at all but lmao at the idea that they found 24 people with (mostly) some kind of media diet and no pre existing opinions about donald trump. no honey you found 24 liars

Toronto’s no better, sadly.

it’s not about that, it’s the fact that most date ideas cost money, and also being on the apps as an average looking man = you need to pay money to be able to shoot enough shots to make 'em worth using.

I have been too broke to date for a while and it sucks :(

the pig fucking episode was its peak. even the rest of that first series was not good

Everyone getting hung up on themes but the best thing about ST is the look and feel, aided by the blend of practical effects and surprisingly solid early era CGI. The behind the scenes stuff on how they did it is worth checking out, though not as amazing a technical/budgetary achievement as Robocop. Verhoeven is/was a whiz at keeping his spectacles visually coherent.

Decided to fly down to amerikkka from klanada for a change of scenery. Spending a week in KY with a dear friend. Definitely going to sample some moonshine. Happy to be somewhere different from home.

I actually had an OK-ish chat with my dad about transness…he’s a huge contrarian and a pedant which makes talking about many things quite annoying, but thankfully he is not on social media at all so he is not completely pilled in any one direction. Once I introduced the phrase “decoupling sex and gender” he was able to at least grasp that, so…baby steps. But who knows where we’ll be at next year.

I remain convinced she is asexual / has never f*cked and the boyfriend press/song cycles are there to convince you otherwise. But then again I also thought the Bey/Jay drama was mostly made up to sell records.

Brexit prompted a lot of treat manufacturers in the UK to cut animal byproducts out of their stuff iirc, have to think there’s more of that on the way

I agree vintage OKC was the least bad option. Loads of text fields so ppl can show off just who they are - very helpful!

kklanada escapes accountability again

idk if this is a bit or not but I did actually sit thru all of loose change final cut on a big screen in a university auditorium and found it to be not remotely convincing. the “truthers” who came out to present it and answer questions afterwards were memorably deranged, lots of energy weapons chatter
