I look forward to the eventual combination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with the rising Peloton Cinematic Universe.

Apparently there are many insecure people in this thread that also know exactly what you mean

Trigun Rulez!

Jesus no! This is one of the more inappropriate articles under which to call for violently raping someone you don’t like. What thought process concluded with you hitting the “publish” button?

Sounds great. To your health!

Good call! It’s pretty uncontroversial to me that medical technology has progressed a lot. I might counter that access to healthcare is still really unequal, medical billing is out of control, and that regulatory capture has fueled total disasters like the opioid crisis, but those don’t negate your experience of…

I was writing about what has happened, what could have happened, and explicitly making the connection that what is happening and what will happen is both a function of what has happened and what hasn’t, but couldn’t. You didn’t need to respond to my post and complain to define my claim in terms that are convenient to…

You seem to have not understood my post, perhaps based on me not providing a chart. Here is a website with charts:

I don’t know if you’re reiterating the Steven Pinker position (which I am firmly in disagreement with), but we’ve firmly closed the door on a lot of possibilities of the 90's even if we’ve made incremental progress in some areas.

It’s better to feel, if you can handle it, but it’s a tall order if you are thoroughly traumatized. I really enjoyed this movie - Watching it convinced me that Scarlett Johansson is a really talented actress.

Agreed, it’s a big cognitive dissonance that is sort of at the core of the this website’s existence. One would hope that a website that purports to be steeped in an understanding of intersectional feminism wouldn’t traffic in tropes of exploitative poverty porn.

“I contain multitudes” - Sandra Bullock

Weird - It turned my butler’s second-cousin-twice-removed’s penis incredibly long and thin, like a spool of Bubble Tape.

Has anyone ever actually seen Kevin Hart and Sandra Bullock in a room together at the same time?

“Everybody needs a Yugo sometime”

Going to a Marvel movie is like eating a meal at Chili’s and sneaking the appetizer and dessert in from a Michelin starred restaurant, and while I can’t actually say I’ve ever had a bad meal at Chili’s, personally, I’m not dying to go there.

I can confirm - At the end of the screening, I blocked exit and did an informal poll with my lungs, vocal chords and clipboard, of each moviegoer to find out whether or not they were entertained.

(I wish I had the Chekhov background to catch more of that aspect)

It’s a little hard to know what to make of the totality of the all the particular loose threads of the movie, and perhaps that’s a problem, but I think to boil it down to edgelordism or dorm-room freshmen is a reductive in a way that I think misses the point.

Perhaps I’ll have difficulty convincing you that this is norm-busting behavior AT BEST, but I would get my ass handed to me for such an elaborate display of buffoonery, especially aimed at someone at my job I already had bad blood with.
