A scant couple hundred thousand more brain cells and we’ll be there.

Cheap shot, I’ve never dared a soap opera myself.

Murderbot.

Murrrderbooooot.

800,000 brain cells played pong.

Creepy.

That’s murderbot’s ancestor.

Jackson added, for sure.

Kagan no way.

Kagan has sided with conservatives way too many times with the “look, their conclusion is poorly reasoned and unconstitutional, but you can technically get to the conclusion constitutionally from a liberal perspective if…” and then she sides with the conservatives.

Poking around in legal details can be fun, but she can be a professor while we get someone taking action on the court instead of siding with employer-imposed religious mandates over employee bodily autonomy (hobby lobby), supporting the “Muslim ban”(trump via Hawaii), and crippling contract law so that class action lawsuits can’t be brought against corporations over faulty or illegal contracts. (American Express versus Italian colors).

Kagan is not helping people, get someone on there who wants to help people.

What do you like about genocide?

Time to legally immediately replace every Justice except for Sotomayor and Jackson.

Thanks, I seen this post a few times and then reality bites just hit me after my brain had ruminated a bit I guess.

Yea, and now there’s the swingback glorification of selling out.

Financial success in and of itself shouldn’t be shameful or exalted, I wonder if there’s a movie showcasing that exaltation of personal commercial success the way reality bites showcased the shame.

I can’t think of one that nailed it the same way.

Reality bites(1994) portrayed the paradox of the newfound “horror” of selling out in the 90s by achieving goals you set our for yourself.

That nailed a specific part of american culture for most working people in the country.

Waiting is also weirdly accurate because on the production side you need actors to focus on portraying a particular personality trait to define the entire character, but that applies in real life to restaurant dynamics, one salient personality trait sort of defines who each person is, like it makes it easier to work in a group if you know that that guy is the stoner or that guy is the cool dude or that girl is the bossy one.

Kids(1995) got suburban entropy pretty solidly. Gummo is kind of in that category too, although I can’t confirm because I never lived in the boonies.

Tuesday Fiasco

I haven’t heard about this, thanks.

Great call

The clutter from everybody is much more educational and enjoyable for me than the clutter from a handful of people.

Hahahaha, Those are real out loud in the world has.

I identified with this statement.

I’m so happy for you.

I blocked them a while ago, lemmy seems more open without the clutter.

Who’s bones of the Moon though?

Dang it, he just posted an awesome video that I love.

Well…probation it is.

Thanks, good to hear from a local.

You mean they’re getting airtime to voice their views?

Which fascist views are being adopted?

Haha, awesome, that rocks!

This one guy invented “the laff box”, a fairly complex machine with a wide variety of laughs that you could put together however you wanted to, and it was so successful in getting the audience to laugh that every show used it.

And that one guy would often be the only one who knew how to operate it, and could basically play a piano of laughs to suit the mood or whatever for any tv show.

It’s a pretty great story if you’re interested

Haha, nice, that sounds pretty good.

So they wouldn’t have significant political power, but they would have a political presence at all, which feels threatening?

Haha, nice.
