one thing I feel goes a bit missing the America-centric LGBTQ rights conversations about riots and Stonewall is the somewhat different paths other countries took

one of the strangest bits of snark that certain leftists do is lampooning the "most important election of our lives" thing as tired or cliche as if donald trump suddenly stopped being on the ballot at some point in the last decade

@ettingermentum read an article (might have been the Nate Silver one) that said his net approval is still higher than his lowest in his first term (or Biden's lowest) which seems insane to me

@regularaugust I don't think I really know what exactly defines a cult classic but maybe I Saw the TV Glow or Hundreds of Beavers? didn't get mainstream success but lots of passionate fans. or possibly stuff like The People's Joker, Rap World, Bodies Bodies Bodies, Bottoms?

Are there any movies from this decade or even the late 2010s that really “cult classics” in the traditional sense? I feel like that kind of reception and dedicated fanbase for one specific new release doesn’t happen the same way in the social media era. Maybe Red Rooms

someone smarter than me can prob explain how I'm mistaken but the fact that Trump was viewed so negatively in the late 2010s despite his presidency being less actively harmful feels like something

one piece of evidence that the vibe still has not completely shifted back is that, from what I've read, Trump's approval is at like -17ish but both he and Biden managed -20ish in their first terms

@TrueSlazac I always feel like dogmatic cynicism allows u to look wise when ur right and merely cautious when ur wrong so I feel like they'll be looking less stupid than they should

@rowanfornow it's kind of annoying how like 60% of the website's discourse is just pattern-matching partisan truisms

@AnaKasparian I never have. Feel free to continue lying publicly, though. Those checks don’t cash themselves and you aren’t talented enough to be relevant with the truth.

do u think leftists have some sense of embarrassment/jealousy that libs keep on organizing large groups of people to do shit (even if it's mostly just standing around and yelling or whatever) while they really don't seem to be able to muster anything of scale at all

one thing I find fascinating abt trump's presidency is that libs look at what he's doing and go "see we were right he's evil" and leftists look at what he's doing and go "see we were right America is evil"

I might be reading too far into it but I keep getting Tiktoks on my fyp by like, Asian-American people with degrees (PhDs etc) talking about politics in a somewhat explanatory tone, and I lowk find the comment sections sort of uncomfy for a reason I find hard to quite articulate

@hecubian_devil that's how I am with BOTW/TOTK - there are a lot of generally mediocre things in the games but the art and music direction is so good it's hard to care

I know people are like “ohhh wahhh you’re a little baby who likes pretty things” when you enjoy good graphics in video games but I am enjoying crimson desert because it’s pretty. Sue me, I like nice art
