We simply can’t leave until we get some wheeeaaat!

Huh.

Wrong turn on 3rd…

This better not awaken anything in me

I’m a big fan of Always Sunny, but not much outside of that.

My take on it is this: it’s a movie about being a nobody with small, kind of pedestrian life goals, in a time when everyone is trying to be famous and we are inundated by media and celebrity. Everyone in the movie tries to make themselves the main character, except for the actual protagonist.

The most essential question of the film, at a literal and existential level, is this: who is this story about?

Fools Paradise. I loved it. Thought it was beautiful, subtle, and weird.

I was absolutely shocked how poorly it has been received. I think most people completely missed the point of the movie.

Yes. This is the silent problem of enormous wealth inequality in the US. As the middle class disappears, fewer people are able to pay small fees to contribute to things like local news, community organizations, and online services.

That’s a shame. Thanks for giving it a try and reporting back!

This is good

Love it. I’ll keep an eye out!

Anybody tried this? How is it?

It’s really about propping up the value of commercial real estate. If commercial real estate implodes, we would have another financial crisis.

Really got’em!

Hah!

This isn’t wrong, but shitposts bring people who meme which brings people who discuss. Have to get a strong user base before strong discussions really kick off.

Lol what? A percentage of their market cap is probably what you mean. A percentage of average net income over the last N (5?) years would be more realistic and still scaled in a way that impacts returns to investors.

Also good!

I have multiple Bluetooth headphones that I use and wear often, and I generally prefer them. But a phone with no headphone jack is a non-starter.

Wired headphones are bedrock.They don’t need to be charged. They work easily across devices. I don’t have to worry about dropping them, or fumbling with menus to connect. They just work, always, immediately. Not having headphones that work when you need them is a huge problem.
