I feel like you're just being wilfully ignorant and hyperbolic. These days I don't have the energy for folks like you.

Can you explain a bit more? I just finished the article and I came to the opposite conclusion.

I just pirate whole seasons and then burn them to blu- ray for long term storage/old time's sake. I love having my media compartmentalized on discs.

Good on you, seriously.

I like how instead of putting in even a little effort to understand why the charges were dropped, the bootlick is so strong in you that you somehow came to such a delusional conclusion.

I guarantee she was a vocal bigot and only got in trouble with Nestle once it because clear she was a PR disaster. Bigots like this can't control themselves and definitely have red flags.

I approve this comment.

You'd think by now cars would have some sort of safety feature to alert parents of this. Reverse cams are the norm now, surely it's not too much to ask for some sort of passenger sensor + temp monitor?

Seems like an insane reach to say if this baby didn't die from that incident, they'd die from another neglect related issue.

Personally, I have a hard time judging parents in this position and I can't say I'm a fan of them being charged. All the system cares about is the illusion of justice served in the form of traumatic retribution via prison.

Prosperity for who?

I think it'd be cool if new/not famous actors were given big roles like this. It's a joke that RDJ got this role and Hollywood has the same issue as Washington-- bunch of old people who can't wrap their heads around going with new talent instead of the same tired old actors.

When a movie markets itself around the fame of the main actor(s), I can't help but think it's gonna be more hype the substance. But when a movie has some very lesser known characters but knocks it outta the park, I like that a lot more. Prey is a good example of this.

MCU movies and all that stuff are just a cheap ass cash grab and decisions are made based on profit viability more than anything. Just so painfully formulaic.

I like On Taking Pictures a lot. Nice podcast that really sparked my interest in photography about 10 years ago.

I try to stay away from political podcasts these days because I'm just too burnt out.

I'm glad you're pushing back. That person didn't address any of the valid points you've raised and I can't stand when people respond and do that.

Arranged marriages usually come with all kinds of sexist norms the women are expected to follow. It's normalized when it shouldn't be.

Given the fact that he's a staunch believer that women should stay in violent marriages instead of divorcing, you may be right.

Why is it that libertarianism seems to have a long history of primarily attracting white men? As a POC, libertarianism strikes me as one of the most ideologically selfish political philosophies that is the furthest thing to being conducive to solidarity. I damn sure don't trust libertarians and I've seen TONS of racism in libertarian spaces/clubs online and in-person.

There's plenty of bastard racist, sexist and transphobic libertarians out there and it's dismissive/inaccurate to chalk them all up as QAnon types.

Alternatives constantly break, like NewPipe. There's something really nice about using offline media with no chance of connection buffering issues.

This isn't about training, it's about hiring trigger happy assholes who aren't at all interested in de-escalation.

The guy's a complete clown and I find it funny how conservatives who never stfu about single black mothers give guys like Musk a complete pass, despite the guy having something insane like 11 kids and being such a blatantly obviously absentee father, clearly because he cares more about the pursuit of money and clout than caring for his kids.

I feel old playing TF2 these days. I still don't know what "skibidi" means.
