It's bad but I'll never not laugh when someone's response to someone's death is "hope they're okay"

@awl It wasn't terrible, really. I found it disappointingly mediocre. One of those "I'd like it better if it was bad enough to laugh at" things. More of the same, more or less. And now I'm wondering if it would be worse to say a film sucked or a film was pointless...
-
@scribus i’d go with ‘pointless’ simply because ‘sucked’ indicates an invoking of reaction to it. Like Thankskilling I sucked. Thankskilling III was pointless.

So I understand Brexit voters were largely halfwits at best.

@scribus They’re the end result of a 40 year campaign by what is essentially state run media (or to be more accurate, a media run state) to overturn the previous referendum we had on joining the EU in the first place. Turns out it’s really easy to gaslight a populace when you spend decades ensuring they’ll never have the tools required to verify your claims.

@ceruleanspark it’s like the independentists took a page from the Bolsheviks who started that campaign in the ruins of the Russian empire

@ceruleanspark Boy oh boy am I glad America won't ever face a problem like that.

So, i wachted yesterday on nickelodeon an Ad of a music group named "beetles for kids". As the beetles songs so family unfriendly that they need to have a version for kids?
I am music illiterate, BTWSunday, 22-Apr-18 23:31:29 UTC from web-
@mushi No, I think it's more a matter of the Beatles being so kid-friendly that it's easy to make an adaptation. Also, licensing the rights to use Beatles songs is harder and more expensive than licensing the remake rights and then licensing the remake for use, so if you're already doing a cover you might as well special purpose it.

Colin Powell. Condoleeza Rice. Hillary Clinton. John Kerry. These are all people who SHOULD have visited North Korea but didn’t. Who are we sending instead? A boatload of celebrities.

@mrmattimation Discriminating against people with no training, experience, or qualifications is ABLEISM!! D:
-
@mrmattimation i’d have no problems with celebrities visiting countries in order to strengthen ties with them if they helped to dispel the stereotype of the fat, rich, greedy American. Too bad in most of these cases that’s the opposite effect.

@mattskala @mayuutann maybe verbs like plan, start, want are about intention or being at the beginning.
-
@mcscx i think over time the general (-ing conjugation for the most part) has become more acceptable in most cases than the full infinitive (to -).

I’m conflicted about Mike Pompeo. On one hand, I hate Mike Pompeo and I think leaving the President with no functioning Secretary of State in the middle of his second year would be really, really funny and exactly as humiliating as it should be. BUT, I think leaving the President with no foreign counsel, especially at a time like this where we’re on the verge of a diplomatic crisis in Syria, Russia, China, Japan, Iran, AND North Korea, would be rather irresponsible and dangerous. I think either A) Pompeo needs to be confirmed, or B) Trump needs to nominate somebody else ASAP. The second thing is not going to happen, so it’ll have to be the first.
Friday, 13-Apr-18 16:53:47 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation this constant shuffling of cards the administration seems bent on doing really isn’t helping those crises anyways but having such an important slot emptied is way worse, I can agree to that.
-
@awl It really comes down to whether you would rather have a potentially incompetent asshole in the position, or have NOBODY in the position and essentially guarantee that all of our current problems escalate.

@mrmattimation as horrible as it undoubtedly would go part of me wouldn’t mind seeing a Scaramucci comeback

http://rainbowdash.net/url/871859 The theory behind this opens up new possibilities and ways of thinking in philology. Did cave-art help develop spoken language for ancient humans?

@snail Robot9000
Basically socially inept, sheltered people bitter at the outside world that thus ignore it and focus on their own online community.
In any case, does having a main character that is morally reprehensible really make a work of fiction bad? Say for example, suicide squad is about worst of the worst criminals going on a mission. Does having that kind of cast as main characters make the entire franchise horrible and disgusting? not really. Sometimes the characters are awful and don't click with the viewer, it's my case with inglorious basterds which I can't watch as I see it as a celebration of the whole spectrum of crappy human behaviour. That doesn't mean it's objectively bad in every way.-
@nerthos to be fair with Inglorious Basterds’s case that’s most of Tarantino films; at least is how I’m starting to see them.
-
@awl I've always seen his movies as the cinematic version of tracing. If every shot is some kind of homage, what is he, himself, actually doing?
-
@scribus that’s a viewpoint I’ve heard often when it comes to his works as well. (He himself is debaucherising cinema lol)

Ah hell, Spring here IS snow flurries. It’s just that for the last few years we haven’t had old drifts last this far in to April.

I was starting to think Spring might be coming back to Minnesota but it started snowing. No accumulation, but it’s getting old now that I ride to work and to school.

@awl In fairness, they probably only got half of it. I'd already made sandwiches for today, had some toast for breakfast over the weekend. But I still woke up to far less bread than when I went to sleep.

Saw a post on Tumblr about how Hank Hill was transphobic. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think the idea that a 40 year old straight white man in suburban Texas circa 1997 was transphobic should diminish your enjoyment of the show.

@mrmattimation well he also verbally abused his son and friends but back in those days that’s why it was funny
