Nice to have something watch 17 times in the next six months that will threaten to swallow me whole but ultimately enrich my life.

They literally made a movie about how you fight colonialism not by worshipping militant ghosts and hanging on to group based animosity, but by embracing yourself as a living embodiment of the culture you come from. It really couldn’t have been anymore on the nose.

A lot of the other moments are earned within this framework. Not as well as in Season 1 for sure but way better than season 2. I’m seeing so much ‘but no one would be as stupid and weak as Gaitok’ chat without people getting that is exactly the point of the character lmao

So like the incest plotline isn’t about this vapid bro doing something weird. It’s someone who in one sense has boundless agency but only wishes to submit to power and senses that power (his dad) abdicating his position and goes searching for it in a different way because he can only submit

I don’t wanna be that guy but the show has never been about money making people shitty exactly. It’s about the ways that American culture warps the world as it consumes other cultures, and what that does to the inner lives of people. Each season studies this from a different aspect.

It’s pretty amazing the way they’ve been able to look at the economic order set up by the US for the benefit of the US and transform it into a national humiliation. It’s like if Mao spent his energy tearing down the Great Wall.

Political party runs the most disastrous campaign of all time and loses.
This must be the fault of the people who most despise the winners.
Flawless logic.

It’s genuinely interesting to me that YouTube as a platform has pretty conclusively failed to house narrative art at any kind of scale/popularity, but that interpretation or essay content is so prevalent and successful. One element is scale for sure but there’s more to it.

The NYT is actually covering it in an even more banal and evil way than the NYT pitchbot account satirises it. Like this is the LEAD headline on the app right now. They think the most important thing to note is that it defies a fake republican talking point from ten years ago.

There’s no chance he’d leave before signing the new deal, it literally costs him about $50 million that he can’t get back.

The 62% turnout rate is almost bang on the average

2024 was not a low turnout election. There were a few million fewer votes than 2020, which had one of the highest turnouts ever because of full postal voting. There were about 20 million more votes cast in this election than 2016. Blaming the left protest vote is confirmation bias.

And moreover, it’s relevant to bring up now precisely because they’re about to roll out the same dumb playbook they did last time and it’ll lead to the same result

Sure, I might’ve won if we were playing on grass instead of clay and the sun was out, but that doesn’t change the fact that I didn’t win the match in front of me

No one had that question in their heads when they went in to vote. Failing to convince people that your candidate is better means you did a bad job as a political party, it’s foolish to blame the voting public for that. It’s like a tennis player blaming the surface for losing a match.

What so I shouldn’t be mad that instead of mounting a credible challenge against these people the democrats slammed a senile old man and someone with no demonstrated national appeal into the side of a hill? I’d like them to not do that again.

The diagnostics stuff can be useful, for instance if it you’ve got someone coming out to fix it they can make sure they have the potentially affected part. I’d rather manufacturers just built this into the units and provided legible instructions

Maybe the democrats shouldn’t have spent 2 years trying to run a guy who was so obviously senile that it sucked up the oxygen? Especially when your messaging strategy is ‘we’re the cool normal ones’.

Absolutely deranged to say they didn’t cover it when articles like this exist. Fact is people didn’t give a fuck, watching the president shit himself on live TV, they did care about.

I think this gets at one of the central problems with how people talk about AI. The write up of a lot review is ‘low value’ to an overall paper sure, but conducting the lit review is vital to ensuring the author understands what other people have said in the topic. totally undermines the process.
