The finale of The Last of the Mohicans (1992) are basically Michael Mann saying dialogue is optional once cinema becomes this locked in. The way the score keeps accelerating while the editing cuts cleaner & cleaner with every death is unreal craftsmanship.
Boomers seem to forget that fast food used to be a normal, everyday expense for them because it was affordable. You could get a burger easily on minimum wage, it wasn’t some fancy treat you had once a year as a reward for pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.
dumbest person in the world it’s not even close
Colman Domingo spoke to Men's Health about his experience coming out as gay to his family in the 1990s. The first person he told was his older brother: "I told him that I was gay. He looked at me and was just like, 'What?' He just couldn’t believe it. Eventually, he said, 'I don’t care, man. I love you anyway.' And he just hugged me. Then he said, 'Have you told anyone else?' I said, no. He said, 'Alright, this stays between you and me.”’ Her sister found out two days later: "She was pissed off. I said, 'Look, yes, it was really hard for me to tell him.' She said, 'No, no, no. Why didn’t you tell me first?' She was pissed off because she didn’t get the information first.’ Some time later, he told his mother—who accepted it calmly. Twenty minutes later, the phone rings and she says: “I talked to your stepfather.” She puts him on and he says, in his blue-collar masculine way, “You’re a good boy and there’s nothing you can tell me that would make me stop loving you.”’ 🔗menshealth.com/uk/fitness/a71…
Is this unconventional, sure it is. However it works. The guests loved the idea of a flower man and everyone had fun. In my opinion anyone who had anything negative to say should just keep it to themselves. He played his role like a court jester preparing everyone for the main event. I don’t feel he took away from the bride and groom, in fact I think he complimented it very well. I think that any body who is willing to have a flower man at their wedding are cool and chill people. I would totally go to this and I know most people would too. He broke boundaries while having a blast doing it, that’s my take on this.
Boomers and Gen X packed lunches. Not sure why this stuff enrages zoomers. Boomers lived frugally. Going out to lunch was a big deal. Most didn't have long lunch breaks, especially blue collar. You didn't DoorDash, dinners were made at home. I don't even DoorDash in 2026.
My terf origin story: I was on a miscarriage support message board. A poster admonished me for not being inclusive. I assumed they meant because a fetus has a mother & a father. No, I was not being inclusive because I didn't acknowledge that men & those who IDd as non-binary could be pregnant too. Boom, I'm a terf.
