I do not want to hear "Black Dog," "You Shook Me All Night Long," or "Gimme Shelter" for the ten millionth time. If you're going to do Boomer Rock, at least throw some Jethro Tull in there, or Flying Burrito Brothers, or some Manassas - something else. There are so many good rock bands from the era that don't get playtime because the usual suspects bloat up the programming. You're telling me you can't be fucked to sneak in The Sonics once in a while? No songs from The Remains? They toured with The Beatles in 1966, for Christ's sake. Barry Tashian is a good guy and deserves a better legacy. Not to mention that there are really good contemporary rock & roll bands that deserve playtime, but don't get any because they're not popular enough. La Hell Gang was fantastic but no one gave a shit because they're from Chile. Tinariwen is incredible and there is also a nascent psychedelic rock scene in Sub-Saharan Africa that not only sounds great, but would check all the DEI boxes at the same time... but it's Africa, so who cares? Let's listen to the same shitty song written by a retarded queerbait Jew from Missouri instead. Or the same awful "rap" or "hip hop" song that is thinly-disguised European house music. The recent trend of bands re-visiting disco is atrocious and needs to stop.
Federal jobs never stopped getting Columbus Day off. The fact kids had to stop getting a school day off for it because people decided it was pro-colonialism is the height of rules-for-thee bullshit.
Yes. I will enjoy BIG BALLS and there is nothing you can do to stop me
Revenge of the Sith was peak. It also was a shot at Bush. Though I'd argue ironically it fits the Democrats more than it ever did Bush. We literally had a wrinkled up old man on the throne for four years.
The general consensus I'm seeing is while Trump supporters are open to criticizing some of his decisions, most notably on the economy, most conservatives are still in approval of his presidency, probably because he was the better alternative to whatever the democrats were gonna do if they were in charge (same shit as Biden).
And the wild part about this is that those types of moderates and apolitical types will still not vote for the current opposition against Trump. They may not publicly show support for him, but I don’t believe they will actually vote for the same establishment that is currently operating on a disinformation scale where they are actively telling you that harboring illegal aliens and having politicians engage in insider trading is more important the American way of living life.
Trump's social media posts never ever stop being so fucking funny man, I can hear his voice when reading it, it's like a wrestling promo every time he types up one of these.
I know it's a point long made by others, but his impact on the language has been so massive. The contrast to other politicians is honestly unreal. Even a decade later, they're only just starting to swear. None of them has the balls to go full boomer sentence fragments, random schizo caps, full on schoolyard insults for the opps. He's a true poster, and you can tell the man's own thumbs sent it.
it's probably bigger impact than FDR's fireside chats and radio for using the new media to get over in politics
If we are being honest, Zegler’s stance on Israel/Palestine was that film’s nail in the coffin. The second that girl went out and attacked God’s chosen ones was the moment Disney started admitting they messed up and threw all blame on her.
TBF, we know Disney has been hurting for cash, so the screeching did impact them. Why they haven’t course-corrected is another issue that can be chalked up to a variety of factors: No creatives left, back door money, intentional sabotage, etc..
unless i'm mistaken, isn't china the fastest aging nation? their fertility rates are declining faster than korea and japan combined
Yes. Also, that people are susceptible to Russian "disinformation".
I don't give a shit if trump's numbers are lower than old man or king nigger. I know under Trump, that his numbers actually mean something I like, and get this, he isn't allowing in the rest of the world's trash through bullshit visa programs.
I saw pretty much nothing but negativity about the film on a variety of subjects. Seemed like every few months there was some new disaster related to it, like Peter Dinklage wanting to be the only midget in Hollywood or the disastrously bad 'test footage' pictures that came out. But none of this had anything to do with people making 60 videos a month about Snow White, it was purely just due to the production being a clown show disaster.
There's a lot of other things going on that have nothing to do with people complaining on the internet. Studios were hit by COVID, then the Ukraine-Russia conflict, COVID lockdowns and Biden ruined the economy so people have less to spend on entertainment, streaming has taken a big hit out of movie theaters, etc.
Doesn't help that they spent like 20-30 years killing every female they gave birth to.
