baby's first Marvel movie!!! (not counting Daredevil season 1, bc it's a series but I love it nonetheless)

I'm so excited!!!

Also, yes, I'm watching Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) while doing mathematics. I'm goofy like that (and yes I can multitask like this, been doing it for a decade now... still don't know how)

also, yes, that is a Robin (DC) little, lego figurine in the background, he keeps me safe and calm

For that people would also need to have media literacy and increasingly.... they don't. Like it isn't JUST that people don't have the range for nuance but their reader/viewer comprehension is stunted to the point it defeats any attempt at critical thinking. And I can't speak for people outside of the U.S. but HERE where there was a decades long degradation of Humanities in favor of STEM and athletics, people are suddenly surprised that literacy is in decline. I noticed for the first time in around... 2016? That people could not even handle subtext and this started bleeding into fandom spaces. That was nearly a decade ago. Fast forward and now this has solidly become part of the culture . I am fully convinced the black and white morality we see being enforced is a symptom of that anti-intellectualism we like to bring up around here every other day.

I am begging people to learn how to accept multiple truths and situational morality instead of this weird hill to die on pure truth stanning culture that appears to be getting more and more popular in fandom spaces. Learn how to identify the nuances, please, I am begging.

Me: You know how when you were a kid and you’d wish that you’d get sick or injured in a way that would justify why you didn’t live up to your potential?

Everybody, apparently: No?

I know that realistically you can only fit so many movies into a list of approximately 100, but I cannot take that "How many of tumblr's favorite movies have you seen?" list that's been going around seriously because there are some truly egregious omissions.

Some of it is very clearly recency bias, which makes me wonder if the op truly wasn't on here in 2013 or so, but you're telling me you made a list of "tumblr's favorite movies" that doesn't include Pacific Rim or Mad Max: Fury Road? Because, like, I was there, Gandalf.

Something I find very interesting about this CEO assassination is that the guy who did it has basically become an American hero.

They're probably quite worried about what will happen when they catch this guy, especially with the level of public support he has. If they catch him alive and he gets to air his grievances, he could unite the entire country against the private healthcare system. It could go to trial and result in jury nullification, which would basically send a message to the American public that catching a rich body comes without consquences.

If they kill him to keep his mouth shut, I'd say people will burn cities to the ground, and it could potentially provoke even more anger against private health insurance. In a powder keg, it only takes one person lighting the match.

I know it sounds over the top, but a figurehead is a powerful thing, and that's what this shooter is. The rich understand it. That's why Blue Cross just magically decided they were going to pay for anesthesia again. Those dead-eyed psychopaths were going to take everything they could until someone shot that guy and that's the gospel truth.

Keep the hate fire burning. Watching their fear is the closest I've come to knowing joy since the Bush administration.
