I didn’t realise he was the son of the miners - the classic 1970s English artistic upbringing.

If someone doesn't cheer or tear up at ride to ruin and the worlds ending, check the pulse.

I think they had a song about going through the desert on an anonymous equine.

The fact that it’s rated so high but they didn’t bother to just put it at number 2 slightly annoys me.

Accepting that you’ll never agree with every choice in an arbitrary list... I disagree with some of your choices! But the only ones I feel worth a quibble are ‘Country House,’ which is a shit remake of ‘End of a Century,’ ‘There’s No Other Way,’ which is just shit (and if anything from ‘Leisure’ is essential it can’t…

Found the American.

Incorrect, the Dutch Protocol was developed in the 90s and has been getting rolled back throughout Europe after systemic reviews.

No I supported my friend converting to Catholicism, as clearly stated. I just don’t fuck with anyone who’s anti-queer (and a bunch of other stuff). That includes my Muslim friends (all cool).

So, you’re against Catholicism because of both real and perceived LGTBQ+ bias in the religion, but frown on “Islamophobia,” a religion that pretty has some pretty strong feelings about LGTBQ+ themselves. 

I got a few comments about being able to cut my mom out of my life. I’m combining my replies in this post, since it all boils down to this:

As a programmer I know a lot of the upper ascii characters but that knowledge is mostly useless - Until now!

Fuck and no. You cannot call yourself an ally unless you are willing to use every button on your keyboard. I’m on the fence about special characters, though, so I obviously need to do more work.

I have no skin in this game, in terms of her work. I watched the first movie in a theatre, at a company event, and thought it was fine for kids. (I was out of the target demo by that point.) I never read the books.

I disagree. Stupid people need stupid lies and there are a lot of stupid people. Ethical and social arguments don’t work on people who can’t understand them. So you scare them with Hell and damnation.

I’ve read two versions. Narratively, it’s somehow simultaneously disjointed and overindulgent dogshit. It’s a massive, convoluted fucking lore dump that’d make Tetsuo Nomura blush.

I am an atheist and am excited to learn that, apparently, it now qualifies me as an “edgelord” as well. I also got whiplash from the way this article seemed to keep pivoting back and forth on whether the author thought it was the worst take, a legit take, a weird take, etc. 

I’m sorry, but what makes his take “edgelord”? Are all atheist takes edgelord?

See I have the opposite experience. I also rarely use Facebook, though I do scroll through my feed a few times a day, but I have made like MAYBE 3 posts in probably over a decade. Most of my family is sold right, though not anti LGBT/abortion hard right, I follow a couple of celebrities’ or celebrity groups, and just…

“We’re marching on the Capitol, Qanon Shamon”

I’d have gone for an old standby, especially prevalent in the classic Simpsons reviews here:
