You cannot claim to love film, to love cinema, and also believe that all the movies that are worth watching just so happened to be made by people who speak the same language as you. That's ludicrous.

@girldrawsghosts Yeah multiverse shenanigans are obviously a big part of marvel comics and it makes sense to include some of that, but the MCU's hard pivot towards it, i think, really goes against what the original appeal of the whole thing was, as you say. A shared continuity

@bornposting Immediately and desperately pandering to his fanbase so they don't eat him alive for being a massive failure

@ReichlinMelnick I looked up several popular children's books. None of them were even close to 300. *For a reason.*

I was reading multiple 300 page books a week by fourth or fifth grade. My teachers used to yell at me for reading in class, because I’d sneak a paperback under my desk and read pulp sci-fi/fantasy rather than paying attention to the lesson.

@EllipticalMan @achillghost I would love to know which "several popular children's books" you looked up. Were they written by Dr. Seuss?

@achillghost I think this gets into attention span, which children have less of than adults. Looked up several popular children's books: none of them were even close to 300 pages.

Reading long books is the same as reading short books except that you do it for longer

Not since he called the rescue diver who helped rescue those schoolkids a “pedo” has Musk shown how much he can’t stand being reminded how fucking useless he is.

I think it's pretty sad that there's 17 year olds on this site calling themselves "cinephiles" after speed watching everything in the "good movies canon" and it's not really their fault, it's just that's what they feel they have to do to discuss movies with one another.

I think what the Platner situation has taught us is that leftists are actually quite susceptible to the "vote blue no matter who" mindset.

@kleeposting @CallunaVulgaria Perhaps he would need a paternity test because she may actually might not be sure who the father is and needs to ask for child support?

I remembered the meme about paternity tests being illegal in France because they cheat so much that it would cause social disruptions, but then I googled it and it's actually true???

@bornposting And to top it off some people will go on multi-game marathons, running through Dark Souls 1-3, for example, also without getting hit once, going back to the beginning of DS1 if they fail at any point. Its insane.

@bornposting Yeah, its simultaneously awe-inspiring and concerning. It took me 3 days of struggling to beat PCR and I consider myself pretty good. When I see someone who plays through all of Elden Ring without getting hit once I think "don't you have anything else going on in your life?"

@VeraDrew22 I'm still stuck on how you'd wipe your ass with a movie. I feel like the insult doesn't translate out of print

They compromised their moral foundations to argue that a nazi tattoo was tolerable in a political candidate and it turned out to all be for nothing. At least we learned they do have real red lines. It's just that white supremacy is on this side of it.

I'm seeing an interesting spectrum of statements from liberal/leftist commentators who supported platner in the wake of this news, everything from denial of responsibility to sarcastic indignation. Honestly the ones i respect the most are a simple "oops" followed by silence.
