Production was a nightmare and the directors were awful IIRC. The movie is not actually bad and is quite fun. That an enjoyable movie could be made during such awful production issues is astounding.
The Sting@TheStingisBack

I always wonder if actors know they’re in a terrible movie. Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo definitely did on Super Mario Bros. so they hit the bottle. They were drunk for most of the filming. Hoskins said: “It was a fuckin’ nightmare.”

Modern engagement bait looks like this: "The REAL reason for X is Y!" when in fact the reasons behind X are complicated and due to multiple factors. But that doesn't farm enough rage. Just ignore them. They don't want discussion, they want clicks.

@Airaxora Besides hospitalization, most I ever lost was 35 pounds in 3 months. Ate 1000 cals a day and cycled 100 miles a week.

@primerelic Saab 9-5 Aero, or the 9-3 Turbo. After they were owned by GM, before GM sold out. The Ecotecs were solid platforms.

Good post. TL:DR Boomers are wimps with big egos.
Devon Eriksen@Devon_Eriksen_

On the surface, it sounds like Boomers hate you. Or like they have the attention span and logical thinking skills of a goldfish. Neither one of these is true. Their complete dismissal of any of your concerns, and their total refusal to understand your situation or worldview, is actually quite sensible in light of one key fact about them. They're not hateful. They're not dumb. They just have an incredibly low emotional pain threshold. They cannot stand to feel bad about themselves for any reason, even for a moment. When you create a meme like this, or you tell the story of how you are forty years old and can't afford a house because you trained for three different careers and got rugpulled by work visas and offshoring every time... ... then they don't even think about it as a worldview or a perspective or an experience that you have. They don't think about you at all. They think only about the effect on their own self-esteem, which must be parried. You have, you see, told a tale of playing life on hard mode, which implies that they were playing life on easy mode, which implies that they are not wizards of insight and paragons of virtue. That's why they will immediately respond with these incoherent lines about whining and bootstraps and firm handshakes and avocado toast. Of course they don't make sense. They don't have to make sense. The goal isn't to persuade you of anything or engage with you at all. The goal is simply to have an excuse to avoid thinking about something which might make them feel bad. These Boomerisms are magic talismans used to ward off emotional discomfort, in much the same fashion as all the species of plants they smoked their way through when they were your age. I don't see a solution to this. I don't know any way to tell Boomers that Hart-Cellar, CRA1964, DEI, open borders, social welfare programs, anti-racism, gay marriage, gun control, the sexual revolution, etc, were massive mistakes and need to be stopped, while hiding the obvious implication they were the ones who made those mistakes. If we wish to save Western civilization, to make things good enough again that actual Americans can manage to have homes and marriages and children, then we're going to have to find a way to work around the Boomers, because they're never going to get on board.

@BayouBomber @thejonwander I was raised by them... it sucked. Their entire existence was strictly to soothe their consciences. They were gullible enough to be guilted into literally anything. That's why they fall for scams so easily.

@thejonwander It was hard to not come to that conclusion based on the bully like arguments/comments they'd always be making. I've lived with a couple of hard core boomers long enough to know. Doesn't make me despise them any less.

@Confessoverse There doesn't need for anything in this show to be sexualized. The fact that anyone thinks it needs to be just shows how dysfunctional they are.

@revenant_MMXX Recently lost both of my parents (boomers) and I'm not looking forward to going through all the kitchen appliances and piles of crap. Entire rooms full of paperwork, 20 years of tax returns, stacks of unused greeting cards. Blenders, juicers, 100 rolls of paper towels.

When my Boomer relatives started dying, my parents had to rent dumpsters to get rid of all the junk they had cluttering their homes. Many items were actually new-in-box, fancy cooking pans, tons of stuff that was purchased and never even used. There's your "generational wealth"
SkinwalkerActual@nw_wolfrunner

If you've ever helped empty out a boomers garage you know "we were just smart with our money and didn't buy tons of bullshit" is a bald faced lie.

@SharklettVT There were also a lot of guys in my cycling group that only cared about spending money and flexing on each other. I didn't get along with them, either. I wish people didn't have to make every hobby political, you know? Like, just go ride your bike and enjoy it

@SharklettVT I will say this: not every cyclist is like that, I couldn't give two cares less about eco-freak virtue signaling. I ride because it keeps me fit, I like things with wheels, and it's fun. I also love fast cars, so...

Grown men preachers in their 50's shouldn't be using "6-7" jokes to try to appear hip to the kids. Have some dignity, man.

I've thought about this a lot recently. May change my working model to trickle my artwork from time to time to social media, but keep my actual work in more exclusive spaces.

LadyLaurkVT🦊🕊@LadyLaurk·
I've been at war with myself. I think my friends think I'm dead. Because even though my roommates part of the crew, they've never reach out consistently, like they did back then. I've been wandering around, this house. Not sure where to go next. Because my destiny is uncertain and I'd rather tip toe around the minefield in my head. Then talk to the God who can give me the clarity that I so desperately need again. But I'm so desperately lost, I've walked away for a few months. And I want to cry and scream out to Him, but I'm stuck in this feeling of dread and isolation. Nothing like the constant fear of fearing new revelations. I don't want to disappoint Him. I know I already have. But if that means I don't have to face Him,  then I can just pretend everything is fine instead. It's a twisted, sad sack, vagabond way to be. Not living, just existing, it's a mirage of "I'm okay", built on a foundation of misery. I know for sure that this is not what God has for me. But I don't like giving away what little control I have, that I so want to keep. This is no way to live. This is no way to run away. I know I'll have to face Him here or past the clouds at some point someday. I don't want to continue this monotonous cycle I've been willfully living in. There's more to life then this, and I want so desperately to keep believing. Sometimes you faith is stirred. No James Bond to be seen. Sometimes you feel shaken. Even with God on your side. Sometimes you believe the lies whispered in your ear, by that serpent named satan. The same one who led Eve down to question the very God that would never leave her high or abandoned. Please forgive me for looking in ever other which direction. For another savior that gave me peace for just a few more seconds. Please forgive me for the vices I've shaken hands with and got acquainted with again lately. Those false hopes, that sin like dope that didn't make me reach out for a high. Are the same things that keep me in these chains and bound in sin all throughout my life. You don't have to forgive a wretch like me, but you offer your love freely, as a present. This night I denouce these sins, these chains I put myself in, for a love that called me worth it. The love that hung on that tree and died, rose again and came alive. That love that was worth dying for and who can give me everlasting life. Surrender and be Obedient. That's what you said the other night. In that moment that I heard you, I broke down and I cried. I know your here and even though I'm scared to death, you've got me in your arms. I don't ever want to leave again, because without you life is so hard. Without I'm wandering, lost, dumbfounded and afraid. Without you I wouldn't know my purpose or my own name. Surrender. Be Obedient to me. That is what you've said. And all you'll get from me from me now on is, Yes and Amen.
