I think the struggles of humanity in general are well exemplified in the concept of labour unions, as two simple facts are fundamentally true and sit in opposition to one another

Honestly I don’t see why we can’t combine the two.

That we live in a world where the pretty clear scientific evidence against screentime being combined with bedtime (which I am, of course, assuming is part of why you are eating in bed here, as the alternative is very weird) has not penetrated the social consciousness just drives me bonkers.

To be fair, the above described activity is not analogous with “interview that was actually a sales pitch”, which is what you are objecting to. Some of the commenters here validly assumed there might be a different story afoot.

Knowing that the writers here can afford $450/$550 credit cards makes me feel a lot better about not disabling my ad blocker. That is utterly insane and ridiculously affluent.

Until this very moment, it never occurred to me that being royalty was a job one could just quit

You seem to have selectively ignored the portion you can’t find an answer to...

CAN SOMEONE JUST TELL ME HOW X-WINGS WITHOUT ASTROMECH DROIDS (and for that matter tie fighters) CAN USE HYPERSPACE?!?!?

I just thought they were much more reasonable idiot balls.

This will be the quintessential example of the most grievous flaw in western civilization: that advertising compels people to do things that are not in their best interest with glee and joy. My, we are a simple species of ape.

The studios will tell us to go see this movie, so we shall go see this movie. (I won’t, save…

The more you people talk, the more I want to play this! :D

Yeah, those butter knives just straight up do not work.

The second act of that film (where you think you know everything) deeply unsatisfied me. I was right crabby heading into that last hour, as I just was so frustrated as how the setup to that turn didn’t really have very many options that felt interesting. Of course the back half was fucking fabulous, and I have nobody…

I love this reply. My heart is with trans people, but this fingers-in-ears-and-screaming approach to addressing the differences between transwomen and biological women is infuriating to my brain. I’m completely patient with that - you’re not going to get space for processing the nuance until we can create safety, and…

EV batteries are projected to last upwards of 20 years

Just wanted to say that I recently got to try Aviation Gin and it was quite pleasant. Its namesake and forgotten cocktail, the Aviator, is worth the bother of finding Creme Violette

...you guys seriously don’t have tap at the pump yet?

I have always rather assumed that the upper echelons of all systems of oppression don’t genuinely believe in their ostensible decision making apparatus. That is grist to unify the middle and lower castes. Hence, upper echelon patriarchists don’t genuinely think women are inferior, antisemites don’t belive jews are…

You can have a child, and not have sex with things. Its like the fan rebuttal that “wasn’t he gay?” skipping over the basic fundamentals of how babies aren’t always made with heteronormitave sex...

What was going on with that credits sequence? We barely watched this movie as we decorated for the holidays (and enjoyed it completely, a recommended format for watching this) but I didn’t have the awareness of the films paper thin construct of a plot to unpack exactly what was going on in there at the end.
