I would say the opposite. The video posted here seems to imply that the default state of film viewing is enjoyment, and that not enjoying a movie must mean you didn’t really get it. It’s good to watch movies and dislike them. It’s also good to feel like a movie sounds dumb and not pay $15 to see it.

Meanwhile, in the real world, huevos rancheros are nice and using a bidet at home is a step up. It’s good that immigrants bring their cultures with them. It makes America better.

Hot take: I disagree with this. I think it’s because it’s so expensive to see a movie in theaters now that it’s rare for people to take a chance on a movie they don’t know if they’ll like. It’s much more of a crapshoot whether I’ll like a movie if I consciously opted to catch it on streaming.

I am a second screen person and my favorite thing about Pluribus is that it’s so good I put my phone away every time. There is something to actually look at on the screen. It is good enough that I actually care if I miss appreciating some aspect of it.

The annoying thing is that as a Good Tote Bag Enjoyer, in an alternate timeline where Target did nothing wrong… I would go there on Black Friday just to get a free tote bag.

Part of me thinks the reason the media is always so in the tank for Trump is that “Could This Be The Week Trump Becomes Presidential” is such an evergreen pitch. Other presidents just are presidential, and there’s nothing much to say about it.

My whole life, for better or for worse, I was taught that democracy, pluralism, and the liberal political tradition are the most important contributions of “Western Civilization”. Then some 14 year old Jordan Peterson fans came along and decided it was buildings with columns.

I’ve been saying this. Red states can feel free not to hold elections if they don’t want to. Then they won’t be represented in the House in 2027. 🤷🏻

What I especially don’t get about these types of posts is that we’ve been in many, many wars in US history, and we always had congressional elections during them. Just saying “oh there aren’t going to be elections next year” is an extraordinary claim that needs at least some backup.

I like both historical fiction and Oscar bait and even I only vaguely know what Hamnet is.

I know I’m old because I remember a time when there was no cost of doing business with a US presidential administration. Unless it’s 1928, you’re the United Fruit Company, and you’re real pissed at labor unions in. Colombia.

Standing up to academic freedom when it’s Charlie Kirk coming to speak on campus or a 60 year old white guy professor sexually assaulting students. Complete capitulation at any other time.

I guess my point is that it’s not “fewer”, but a serious minority of the population. The risks of horseback riding pre Industrial Revolution are more comparable to flying a Cessna. In Ancient Rome, being able to keep a horse made you literally upper class.

One thing I think a lot about is that, except for maybe some aspects of the 19th century, most people were mostly not dealing with horses that much unless they were a stable hand for a rich person. Your ass was walking.

20 years ago, Walmart did doorbusters where each store would have like 2 flatscreen TVs marked down way below retail for a lucky few who waited in line all night to have a chance to buy them.
Now they’re doing the same thing with pasta.

The sentiment that unites all TERFs, whether the British liberal variety or the US religious right variety, is the absolute horror about people getting to decide for themselves who they will be in this world.

It is kind of wild that 65 boxes of Mac & cheese costs like 10% of a flat screen TV, though.

The alternatives to PB would be working class, for people who trade their work for a wage, and owner class, for people who derive their wealth purely through ownership of the results of others’ labor.

Petty Bourgeois is a term that describes labor and ownership under a capitalist system.
To keep it simple, most small business owners are petty bourgeois. Artists typically aren’t, but craftspeople can be. Also if you’re doing less art and more business, you definitely are. 1/2

No it’s not. I took a “Bible As Literature” course and we used the New International Version, which is the modern day literary translation IIRC. KJV has some nice poetry but isn’t great for actually understanding what is in the Bible in modern English in the 21st century.

Because that’s not even the translation of the Bible that is used nowadays, unless you’re a weirdo Christian fundamentalist. And even most of those say they do but actually don’t.
