Didn’t really expect another Wolf Parade after the last, which was decent but nothing spectacular.

From Up On Poppy Hill is an underrated film. It deserves far more attention than it gets.

I have a pair of Soundcore Life 2 (or something) which I’ve found quite nice. I’m sure these are nice too.

Yes and no. It just really depends on several factors.

15 years ago /= always, but I’m just picking on ya :)

I don’t want to spend a whole lot of time getting mixed up on this discussion because it wasn’t really my intention to stir anyone up, but I will address you response because it demonstrates that whatever it was that you came away from my post thinking was not especially related to the point I was trying to make.

Don’t forget repairing lawnmowers, learning hacking techniques of the 80s, and, of course, cat videos.

No huge difference on some. Philosophically it boils down to the proliferation of consumer culture, which can be a difficult thing to narrow down.

Don’t think too far into my post. It’s a simple-perhaps overly cynical-generalization, and not meant to be taken as serious commentary. 

Well I can’t speak for every other politician out there-some are absolutely in touch with the needs of their communities in a significant way-but I understand what you are trying to say.

The action of asking for power and authority is in itself somewhat disqualifying. 

Perhaps, but something tells me that a National Taipei University law student that cosplays in her free time (or perhaps professionally?) might not be quite as in tune with the needs of average people as one might hope.

Mission Hill’s depiction of an online game is also weirdly forward-looking, even if that was probably unintended. In the game, players can lose everything if they sleep or leave the computer. Other players can come and kill them or even sell them into slavery. In 2000, this wasn’t really how games worked.

I saw Desaparecidos live and it was one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen. Both boring and brief.

It’s a bummer what neoliberalism has done to some feminist causes and activism.

I was just in Russia hanging out with someone from this company. Even though they are in Saint Petersburg, I’m sure this company is full of pretty typical Russians. Their culture is still markedly racist and misogynistic.

It’s almost like there is already a better word: Muffler

It can be both. A diet becomes a fad when companies start to monetize them. This is pretty obvious with low-carb diets because they have been around for a long time and because they are so simple that any effort to monetize them comes across as very forced.

The title needs fixing. It’s unclear that he is explaining that people who didn’t vote for Trump are seen as traitors by Trump supporters 

Can math most of that with available data:

The film had an international release, so it is pretty easy to find these people.
