They had already seen the show a month prior? It was a shitty thing to do regardless, but it just seems so spiteful to prevent someone from seeing the show for the first time just so your kid can see it twice back to back.

Wow, those colors are incredible.
I am sure it will suddenly be too expensive for them to safely decommission the platforms.
I had no idea she wrote a book. I love her humor, though! Will add it to my reading list!
We do not want that. We do not want a protector. We want our rights to be upheld and not jeopardized by making them a State’s Rights Issue where they can be dismissed or “protected” by stupid little men like him.
My favorite easy fiction that helps me unwind is Agatha Christie mysteries. There is a reason she is the greatest mystery ŵritwr of all time. She sets up compelling situations and makes her way to a damn satisfying conclusion by the end.
A few of her shorter but still excellent stories: The Secret Adversary N or M The Unexpected Guest 3 Blind Mice Halloween Party Murder of Roger Akcroyd
Also if you like Mysteries I have to plug my all time favorite: 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
It is a great mystery in which the protagonist wakes up with no memories and has 8 chances to solve a murder.
The people I have chosen to spend my days with. My spouse, my child, a few friends. And also daydreaming about vacation…specifically vacationing with all of those people. That would be incredible.
Did not know what to expect when I read the headline, and it used the term scratched. Then, the statement goes on to say a box cutter was used. What the fuck.
“The timeline is always being adjusted, through the work of archaeologists. To quote a now famous Hancockism, “stuff just keeps getting older.” Yes, and it’s archaeologists that you have to thank for that. Stuff keeps getting older because we keep looking for it, and because we keep analyzing it, in the plain light of day, not in somber academic conclaves where we decide what should and shouldn’t be revealed to the huddled masses, presumably living in fear of the next apocalypse.”
Hancock is hijacking peoples attention and funding. The money that went into making this season would have been much better allocated to various archeological digs. That way, more actual work and analysis could be done as opposed to Hancock’s tenuous theorizing. Archeology is always evolving, that doesn’t mean big archeology is lying to you. It just means they are presenting the most logical evidence they have at the time, and when new (well documented and analyzed) information comes along that changes.
Those meddling Google Debunkers!
The belief in the existence of a super-race (or whatever term Hancock uses) is dubious. While the idea on its own may seem harmless, it opens the door for racist idealogies. Everything has to be taken in context, and crackpot archeologists have been making this argument for ages in order to justify later arguments for eugenics.
I know it may appear that Hancock questioning the established historians and “big archeology” is above suspicion, but it is done in an unambiguously dishonest way. He refuses to acknowledge sound logical arguments put forth by multiple well-respected sources and hand waves things away as common sense. Essentially, he is frustrating because his arguments muddy the waters of logical discussions and introduce doubt in a community that certainly does not get paid enough for this shit.
I was torn between the use of misinformation and disinformation. And comments on Lemmy are often speaking into a void, so I honestly did not think it would matter. I appreciate the clarification and agree that misinformation is more appropriate. But agree that falling for misinformation leads to disinformation.
This is the danger of celebrity endorsement. It will bring so much more attention to an unworthy ‘cause’, and so many fans will now absorb this information without critical thought. It is truly a situation where a well-intentioned person does not know enough to understand that this supposed expert is talking nonsense and the world at large slips that much further into disinformation.
Well, now I’m sad.
Why do I feel like in a few years we will be watching a youtube video from the likes of “Climate Town” explaining how all the AI and tech giants were awarded these subsidies and used them to fuck up the world even more? It just seems like there is no way to win and the governing bodies can’t keep the money flowing towards where it is needed and away from the pockets of CEOs.
There are so many interesting games I see that require internet multiplayer and voice chat. I would love to play them with friends but do not want to interact with random people in a game.
Don’t know how it is in the comedy category and not drama.
I know it was discussed last year, but classifying The Bear as a comedy is a bit unfair. While the show certainly has its comedic moments, that shit is a stressful drama 90% of the time. I accept that awards are always bonkers, and comparing art and performances is not ever “fair.” It just seems insincere to put yourself in the same category as a show like What we do in the Shadows or Abbott Elementary when it seems to clearly belong in competition with shows like Shogun or Mr and Mrs Smith.
I don’t think you can compare the acting of Jeremy Allen White in a serious show about the life of a chef to that of Matt Berry who is pretending to be a horny vampire and occasional girls volleyball sponsor/humble neighborhood bartender from Tucson Arizonia. Jackie Daytona was robbed, and I will die on this hill.
How is Fallout a drama and not a comedy? How is this classification decided?
Oh I still have fun playing it when I can! But it’s more of a desperate attempt at survival and less a strategic hunt for the bounty and skilled firefight with enemies. I wish this existed back when I was in college and had more free time to play and friends available to co-op with. I’m so anxious about letting down teammates I’m matched with online.
Feeling wasteful in the between 4 and 6 category. That is, if I am away from home and there is no bidet. That is just what I feel adequately safe/dry with
