  • Bullshit

    I’m born and raised in Appalachia, my daddy worked in the coal mines and drove an 18 wheeler. Certified redneck enough that I confuse the shit out of my New England neighbors.

    I went out and marched with striking nurses when Bernie put out the call, and I’ve never voted Republican in my entire fucking life.

    OP, you need to learn what a redneck is.




  • The Marvels was poorly paced and I don’t know if that’s more the fault of the editing or the directing. But holy shit the individual pieces were so. good.

    The interactions between the leads, the evolution of the fight scenes to integrate the problem and turn it into an advantage. Princesses and kittens are not my kind of deal, but they were absolutely perfect in this movie and I was thrilled to see them. Kamala Khan being a superhero with a normal, well-adjusted, loving family is one of my favorite things about her character.

    My frustration and disappointment with this and with The Eternals is this had all the pieces to be a great Marvel movie, but the pieces didn’t get assembled properly somehow. I don’t know what changed about their production process, but if they can fix it, they still have good content to build great movies on. Haters bedamned.


  • The original r/196 subreddit had a rule that if you visited the sub, you were required to post a meme before you left. A lot of people tried to follow the rule, but weren’t able to come up with a good post title on such short notice, and started just naming their post after that rule. After some time it became a meme in and of itself to include the word “rule” in your post title somehow




  • free speech and government oversight

    That’s not what I read into this at all, but something far more sinister that I see happening in the world right now. Certain power players using “government oversight” as a disingenuous excuse to attack the means for regular people around the world to speak directly to one another without the filters that favor narratives that the power players prefer, and for regular people to coordinate with one another.

    The Arab Spring and BLM protests scared some people and it’s showing.
