It is pretty unique. I’m not a huge horror fan in general though so it was right up my alley.

Nah, I’m hungry right now

I thought it was a great horror film. There’s enough there to be spooky but it’s not over the top with jump scares and other genre specific tropes.

Fine, I’ll give it the tongue test and aggressively mash each bite into the roof of my mouth before I swallow it.

I like it. I’d also like to propose an extension, similar to “cloud” to “butt”, that replaces “AI” with “silicon schizophrenia” or something to that effect.

I see tons of movies they have no idea I’ve seen. That’s the natural result of making going to the theater a shitty experience. I’ll still watch what I want to, you just won’t get any benefit from it.

I would like it if there was a way to pay a studio / director / production company directly for their work on a film. The old ways of monetizing films don’t really mesh with the way I engage with them.

An upgrade for a non-essential item you already own might prompt some of these considerations from some people. The decision to buy that item in the first place usually won’t, especially when you’re talking about essential items like groceries and housing, which is what the article in the OP is referring to.

This is my problem with economics. You’re talking about theory and practice as if they’re the same thing. All consumers do not make perfectly rational choices. Hell, most don’t. This kind of theory only explains how rich people want you to think things work. It’s not how things work in the real world.

Rules don’t matter if there’s no one willing to enforce them. The strongest legal argument in the world means nothing to people who don’t care about the law.

Never in your life? I always assumed asexual meant very rarely horny, not literally never. Is that common?

I suppose that’s one way to rationalize it

I agree, Brian Thompson should never have been allowed to murder so many people with his psychopathic level of greed.

I’m not sure what conversation you think is happening but it has been my experience that everyone is talking about the thing you’re saying no one is talking about.

There’s a user with the name “SatansMaggotyCumFart” or something like that. I think the person you’re talking to is assuming your name is a play on that since it looks and sounds similar but isn’t gross.

Careful, you’re very close to acknowledging that men have problems of their own and we don’t do that. That’s the patriarchy talking.

Not for long. Capitalists about to do more stripping in that caldera than your mom does on Tuesday nights down at the Beaver Barn.

I really like that the link at the bottom of the page says “check out more stuff you should be using” but that URL takes you to a page where the curl article is the only link.

“more coming soon. Or not. I don’t owe you shit”

A majestic site indeed. Bravo sir.

The people you’re talking about in this post are all different people with different points of view. You’re the only one combining them into a single nebulous idea of a person.

Did you miss the whole debacle of “we’ll never cave without ACA subsidies being extended” immediately preceding caving without extended ACA subsidies? That’s far from the only example of such behavior. In fact, I’d say the only anamoly in that situation was the strong stance Dems took before reverting to their usual cowardly selves.

Good luck with that
