Okay, Highlights is goofy. But Reddit quarantining /r/TheDonald today is a sign that the knitting site’s brave first stand is working. It’s okay to ban and deplatform these creeps.

Remember when some smaller company (AirBnB?) stood up to Nazi trump supporters, and that kind of made it okay for everyone else to start deplatforming Alex Jones, one by one? I hope we see a similar “Oh, this is actually okay and doesn’t hurt our stock price” snowball with deplatforming all these crazy bastards.

But that’s the thing. I haven’t seen anything I’ve loved on Netflix since maybe Kimmie Schmidt ended? But I keep the subscription because of the psychological sales tactic whose name I forget. Loss aversion? Basically that once someone has something, they’ll want to keep it even if they would t buy it again right now.

The streaming service business model is weird. The point of a new series isn’t long term viewer loyalty (like the ad-driven network tv model). It’s new sign ups.

I’m a dad and very casual gamer who maybe plays two games per year. I literally bought a PS4 so I could play Spiderman... then sold it (at a slight profit!) once I was done with the game.

Right now, I’m playing old Gamecube games at night while my kids are asleep.

A low-investment product like Stadia is perfect for…

Lol. X-men has always been a metaphor for inclusion, tolerance, and other virtues cowardly boneheads inelegantly label “SJW.”

What about treating Magneto as a bigger threat, a la Thanos lite, and not featuring him in every damn movie? There are so many other villains and characters to focus on.

Yes, that’s the plan. Influencer Darwinism.

“This amazing feat of animation – that just 5 years ago would have been impossible – isn’t good enough because it’s not perfect.”

Spoiler: they fight, Godzilla will be the king of the monsters in the end. 

“Don’t spoil my viewing experience with your opinion in the review headline”

This sounds like Freakonomics for cars, which I love. Would very much love to see what you come up with. (And as a data-focused copywriter/web writer, this sounds like an interesting project to contribute to.) Please keep me updated! -Matt

Elon musk loves cave rescues.

Glad I’m not the only one who’s seeing Tesla’s increase presence on SoCal roads as a problem. This is anecdotal, but it just feels like the Model 3 drivers are... worse? Somehow? Like there’s a combination of arrogance and superiority, but also a lack of skill in their driving habits?

And Rob plays...

 A February movie finally in its place. 

Yeah, exactly. There’s no way it’s less expensive to remake a fucking movie than keep paying tiny residuals to weirdo animators. 

It’s a film that’s such a mess, it makes Nolan’s other films look retroactively worse. I think he’s afraid of it. 

Stop using these bullshit clickbait headline articles. Especially ones that show how poor your data analysis skills are, and inadvertently reveal the fact you probably shouldn’t be writing these fearmongery articles (let alone editing the work of others...).

As others have stated, the research summary is bad. The…

I thought it was, “The United States is the Florida of the world.”
