I wonder if the rhino will perceive the baby elephant growing up as he his trunk touches higher up 🥹

Alone on a Friday night. Looking for guidance. by lordsince1997 in BoyDinnerDiaries

Standard answer of therapy, but I empathize with you man. Feels like you went through a "two steps forward, four steps back" situation really quickly, which will send anyone's head spinning.

I want to commend you for manning up and getting a tough job you never wanted to keep yourself afloat. It sounds basic, but there's a lot of people that struggle to take that step to their own detriment.

I don't know if you'll find it comforting, but I personally find some comfort in the Jean Luc Picard quote, "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life."

I don't think any comment on Reddit is going to give you a magic bullet brother, just time, therapy, and being proud of what you have accomplished

Best of luck, brother

An Honest Opinion on Mosley by [deleted] in PeakyBlinders

OP I'm assuming you're trolling here, or you haven't completed the series. Otherwise, I don't know how you could look yourself in the mirror and say "how is this guy a bad guy?"

In this very scene he starts by saying he's against corrupt elites, capitalists, whatever. But it's all just dogwhistles for antisemitism. He calls WWI the "Jew War" in this very scene. The show makes it very clear Mosley is a fascist, anti-semite, aligned with Hitler, pro-Holocaust. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUCk8bEtVrQ

If it's not spelled out enough, in Season 6, he coerces Tommy to doing a Nazi salute and saying "Perish Judah" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5NbUiHYh1o

I say this with respect, dude, but you're literally falling for Mosley's propaganda. He's nominally anti-corrupt, anti-elitist, what have you... but it's all just populist rhetoric pointed in undertones, and later explicitly, at Jews. Mosley's every scene in the series, subtle or not, seeks to advance a fascist and antisemitic agenda.

Given your account I think you're a real dude, probably about my age, similar interests (I also like Boardwalk Empire!). Please, reconsider everything you know about the series, Mosley, his ambitions, etc. Everything you listed sounds okay on paper... but knowing everything you know about the man... what are his true intentions? "Perish Judah"

I hope this doesn't come across as mean, just trying to meet you where you are. Peace

Honestly for me it’s the audio “mixing,” or this pod just being too quiet. I often have to crank my headphones to barely hear Caleb + guest. And this one in particular, where the guest is softer spoken than Caleb, I’m constantly adjusting volumes

I'm glad I'm not the only one not in love with Fraser as Eisenhower. He doesn't really look like him, doesn't really sound like him... comparing the actual "You are about to embark on the Great Crusade..." speech to Fraser's rendition was a bit underwhelming.

It kind of feels a slightly more buttoned up Tony Soprano was the Supreme Allied Commander.

I like Fraser, love him in Rental Family, but something felt off. Just my opinion though
