I don’t get what’s happening here

I honestly haven’t seen a lot of his movies. He’s doing an amazing job with Penguin so far though!

I watched all of them and it did get somewhat better here and there. The high points were just good enough that I still wanted to see what happened but there was just so much pointless junk that even the big cliffhanger ending didn’t really thrill me… I’d honestly be fine if they just told me how the story ends in an email or something lol

I suspect I know the entire reason this “article” was written, and it’s that the people who love every Disney property are still trying to make up literally any reason why Acolyte was cancelled other than the fact that it was just a jumbled mess of a show.

I love Star Wars, I watched every episode of The Acolyte. It was ok at best. It was somewhat enjoyable but had so many issues with the writing that I wasn’t that surprised when it got cancelled.

I obviously can’t speak for everyone, but this never happened when I was in middle school and high school in the 90s. If someone couldn’t afford the school lunch they had a free lunch program where kids would just go up to the counter and get a sandwich and a juice. No one ever said anything to the kids who got the free lunch because it’s lunch lol everyone’s gotta eat!

Making someone wear a wristband because they couldn’t afford lunch just seems needlessly cruel

According to the listing a big tree fell on it

$500,000 gets you the privilege of getting to tear down the old building and then you get to pay again to build a new house there! What a deal!

I think the boomer who wrote this needs to have a nap. They don’t seem to even understand the difference between gen-X millennials and Gen z and is just spouting a bunch of “kids these days” nonsense.

You talkin shit about Ranger Carl?

They were going to be in a section of the cemetery where soldiers had just recently been buried and so were asked well ahead of time not to film in that one specific area. The Trump team of course ignored this simple request and immediately started trying to film there. The cemetery staff tried to keep them from doing the exact thing they agreed ahead of time not to do and apparently it turned into some minor physical altercation

I switch between Boost for Lemmy and Jerboa. Boost has more features but is a little more complicated to use. Jerboa is super simple and made everything easy but it’s missing a few features I need to use occasionally.

What’s wrong with it?

Not drinking. It’s a habit I started after nearly 2 decades of being a terrible alcoholic lol

My city will apparently get up to 112F with 100% humidity in the summer… Fun

Use them to make a bootleg copy of Duke Nukem to share with your friends. That’s what we used to do with them lol

He basically told all the racists, homophobes, transphobes, xenophobes, and anyone else who feels they’re entitled to more than anyone else that they were right and they don’t need to maintain any air of dignity or even basic human compassion about it anymore.

Look at that list and you’ll see it’s all people who base their whole identity around hatred of things they’re afraid of or don’t understand. That’s what he tapped into, ignorance and fear.

We should be so lucky to get 90s Nickelodeon! No, I think the article said it’s going to be mostly original programming so it’s a safe bet whatever it is will be like Hallmark on steroids

Nothing says “family fun” quite so well as content provided by homophobic chicken sandwich dealers.

You can’t. As more generations are born into a world where 24 hour a day surveillance, constant data tracking, and a monthly subscription for literally everything are the norms the expectation of any kind of privacy will sound like something from a history book.

Soon it will seem odd to people that anyone wouldn’t want every thought and action to be tracked and recorded by our corporate overlords. People who try to maintain any type of real privacy will be seen as misanthropic at best or highly suspicious at worst.
