The Internet is good sometimes.

Wow crazy, people think that the movie is entertaining and fun and not a deeply serious anti-war statement? It must be because they lack "media literacy" and not that every aesthetic feature of the film is screaming that war is exciting and dramatic.

"Media literacy" is merely the debased, desiccated, hectoring little brother of the jewel of human consciousness, arts criticism.

yessss good video

I feel like the confederate flag is a decent analog where for some its taught more strictly and for others its glossed over as something with ""nuance"", but like, we were certainly taught about nanjing and comfort women in 9th grade

also for clarity the reason i made the initial comment is bc i feel like most white people in this day and age DO know if they're even the least bit tapped in, its definitely not as focused on as german nazi imagery but we did learn it in my school, but I was also in AP for whatever that's worth.

yeah even just her putting the full image with no warning in that video where she's talking about why its soooo hard to cover it up makes me like???? like yes you are a victim but that doesn't remove the greater context here. its very self absorbed

gotcha, didnt see that. the comments on the other hand trying to coddle this woman about it were genuinely baffling

Only saying this bc I feel like its important context that this was a woman raised in a cult and not just randomly ignorant, hateful, and wildly orientalist

not saying this to defend the woman's attempt at getting sympathy/not getting it removed bc I found that to be.... crass, but specifically it's the symbol of the Unification Church, she explains in a different video she was raised by Moonies and didn't learn until much later.

OpenAI designed the affirming tone of ChatGPT to goose engagement because their business model depends on it. Blanket affirmation and encouragement is how we get people turning to ChatGPT as a therapist AND how we get suicide instructions, deepening delusions, and this shit. It's the business model.

absolute fucking ghoul

this post being how i found out she's jewish 🫩

her name is cinnabon btw. or bonnie for short

oh theres also rathskeller for more upscale kind of place. if nothing else its a cool building to walk past. i cant say i really remember anything about the food from the one time i went there but its a landmark, ive mostly just been to the beer garden but idk if thats open this time of year

there's also bottleworks on mass ave if you want to grab something and walk around there, food court type situation in what used to be a coca cola bottling plant. & lots of cute local shops on that street

more personal to me, riviera maya is just north of indianapolis. i used to live down the street from it in hs. it got priced out of its original location and is now in an old cheeseburger in paradise building. wouldn't say its anything particularly special but it means something to me.

if youre looking for something more upscale, st elmos is kind of the only one i know of really worth it or unique to indianapolis.

there's a local fast casual chain called Yatz that does cajun food, im sure some nola people would scoff but i always get some when i visit my mom n its tasty

if you want something kind of more divey and historical, there's the steer in. i think guy fieri went there ¿ great patty melts and milkshakes.

a lot of the stuff i used to love as a kid is gone between the rapid development/gentrification and the pandemic, but that one is still there

im obsessed w my kitty cat shes the sweetest cutest girl in the entire world

correct answer. dont eat this if youre on a road trip unless you want to have to make a lot of stops

do you eat meat

An elderly and kinda scraggly looking calico tabby cat is lying on a black and white striped pillow, although her butt has been slowly sliding off for a while and is now half on the bed, half on the battery power pack lying on the bed. She is curled up in a tight ball of roundness with her face tucked against her back paws and her tail.

Breaking news: roumd

that whole 'this country isn't ready for a woman president' line is really upsetting because it shows exactly how neoliberalism works, redirecting blame from issues of policy (or lack thereof) onto a flattened, vague type of sexism in a way that ultimately doesn't even challenge sexism!
