One of my least favorite Queen albums and I still like it more than 90% of other bands

Incredible film. I want to rewatch it someday but I’m too scared

There’s a documentary about him back in the 60s where he says, β€œI’m actually a very good singer, you just have to listen really close”

How can you tell if you’re β€œgetting used to” something, vs β€œgetting cumulatively more annoyed until you crash out?”

For sure. I also take your point that a lot of the people clutching pearls today have apparently been oblivious to a lot of other things that have been going on. I may have accidentally lumped your post in with other arguments I’ve been seeing. It’s possible I need a phone break

It may well be that β€œviolence isn’t the answer” is an oversimplification, but this argument doesn’t convince me. β€œThe Right does violence! Why shouldn’t we??” Because we don’t want to be like them?

Initially read this as, β€œAccidentally went into a spacecraft,” and I was preparing a whole list of questions

What the hell. I mean, I don’t know anything about her, maybe she’s always been conservative? But this is disappointing to learn about anybody

To what end? Ask his boss, Vlad

Ok yes, there will probably be at least a moment of intense relief

I’m not looking forward to it at all. As much as I wish he’d go away, I’m dreading the reaction of his fans, as well as the disappointment of my friends when they realize that his absence doesn’t fix anything. It’s too late; he’s served his purpose

We didn’t just need to read it, we needed to disseminate, explain it, convince millions of people it mattered and get them to vote accordingly. All of which many people tried so hard to do, and yet here we are

It’d be after the β€œs” in this case

You said, β€œWe have to concede there are some really irritating people here.” I’m saying, β€œOf course. How could there not be?”

β€œPublic social-media app with zero obnoxious people” was never on the table

Does everyone have their own Overton window? I thought that was like a collective thing

THE HOST: Opening Statement

One of my very favorite films. This little piece echoes some of my thoughts on it but it’s not terribly deep; would love to read some thorough criticism

Yep. My family heard they were dropping DEI and we haven’t been back since; didn’t need anybody to call for anything

A few hundred arrests per day? How is that even possible?

I’m surprised he’s alive and very confused that he’s nicely dressed and sitting in comfort, but maybe that’s just a show they put on for the cameras?

18.04.2025 04:00 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Exactly. So as little as I trust his DOJ, I rather suspect that he claimed the guy was alive and well because he thought it sounded good in the moment, but he doesn’t actually know anything about it

No, I see what you’re saying, it’s just that β€œtrump is lying” is my default assumption

13.04.2025 17:00 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

It might be BS but then again trump will say whatever is convenient for him in the moment

If you find trump β€œgracious” you’re on the wrong side

No I totally get that, I just don’t see how we’d win

Physically fight? I’m so sorry, I am profoundly ill-equipped for that type of action

Say we do understand this. What are you suggesting we do?

Isn’t this whole situation predicated on us being in a state of EMERGENCY?
