I'm bored with the state of movies these days and decided to make a comic about it 4 comments

It's amazing to visit locations around the world in general, I don't think it has to necessarily be tied to movies or pop culture. If you only visit some places because of their significance in movies, you're limiting yourself. Travelling is a wonder in itself, but that said if your passion for movies makes you travel when you otherwise wouldn't, go for it. I'm just not a fan of this boomer mindset that "new technology bad". Though I personally also think old school effects and puppets look dope and CGI is often overused where it wouldn't have to be, it allows for many more possibilities that traditional techniques wouldn't, and is a net positive for the industry. The argument "there will be fewer places to visit" just doesn't hold water when you take into account its benefits.
(Oh and btw I wasn't responding to your comment but the post itself. I know FS is sometimes confusing with its UI so I just wanna make that clear, I was calling the post boomer, not you)

Disney's all about the $$$ and always has been, they do what panders to each market/demographic. If you're expecting anything actually moral of them and not just fake woke shit while the company is unethical in so many ways, the joke's on you honestly.

Gosh that sounds amazing! Reminds me of a pizza they make at my local restaurant, basically this but without the ricotta and they crack an egg in the middle (before baking ofc). Sounds weird but it's good!

Same! It took me learning how to cook to realize just how sloppy of a cook my grandma is. She doesn't understand the concept of making things from scratch and always uses artificial sauce thickeners, store bought dumplings, cake mixes etc. and always drenches everything in oil.
My other grandma though, now her cooking was *the shit* (tm). Everything was always 100% home made, and she had chickens and grew her own vegetables.

Ahahaha true! Growing up my mom always made bland, steamed vegetables (with a few exceptions, for example her breaded and fried cauliflower is the best.) Then I learned how to cook and discovered all kinds of delicious vegetable soups!

I'm sorry. I gotta defend my boy Herodotus 1 comments

Yes! He makes it clear that he's only writing down stuff he was told. He wrote down what he heard and didn't much bother with fact checking. As such, the books are an interesting melange of myth, history and traditions/cultures. I've listened to them as an audiobook, 10/10 background noise while doing chores haha

No I think it's some kind of admission. "Who's the ho?" "I da ho"

Agreed! However, long lasting doesn't necessarily mean happy. When one party is always understanding and forgiving and the other always requires understanding and forgiveness, it might not be worth it.

Ahaha yeah, it sure wasn't his strongest moment. But tbh he's at his strongest when he argues with college students who have no debate experience, because he can keep his BS flowing and nobody will call him out.

Right? She's rolling in money made from selling scam "health" products like vibrating stickers or psychic vampire repellent or crystal vagina eggs. Especially now in quarantine when people are getting mental and desperate and buying stuff that they think can potentially help them, including her snake oil. How can she be sad, of all people?

How a sewing machine works 5 comments
ewqua · 3 years ago
I've actually found out that most of the time I just need to re-thread the upper thread! Idk, as a beginner this is all strange and new to me, that just yesterday the machine was sewing fine and then the next day, without changing anything and working with the same fabric, it behaves like an arse. Thank you for the tip though, I knew about the tension part but didn't realize it could also be a bent needle!

Yes! Gurus and cult leaders especially are super interesting because it's all this stuff we've talked about but to the absolute extreme. It's really interesting to see how they keep their "flock" in line, all the mind games and tactics. And yeah maybe it's a bit macabre of me to be so fascinated by this, seeing as the situations are often really messed up, but it's just fascinating from an anthropological perspective.
Edit: oh and if you want a good intro to Ben Shapiro, as well as to have a laugh, I'd recommend you watch his interview with Andrew Neil on the BBC.

Yeah. Not to group him in with anti-vaxxers, but Benny Shapiro is really good at this. He talks fast and has a very high BSPM (bullshit per minute) ratio, so to effectively debunk him you have to take his speech apart and fact check it thoroughly. Which of course is not something you can do on the go, hence why he's so successful at debating.

The whole situation is so cuckoo. Wakefield performed colonoscopies on the kids, something you absolutely shouldn't do unless there's a very valid reason and all other options have been exhausted, because their bodies are small and the equipment could seriously hurt them, which if I remember correctly did happen to at least one of the kids. Most of the kids in his study, y'know about how MMR vaccines cause autism, didn't actually have autism (or bowel issues for that matter)! He was commissioned to make this lying study by some sketchy lawyer guy. So he lied and lied and lied to get rich and now idiots are regurgitating his talking points.
