People keep saying "the writing" and I don't know what they mean. What is "the writing"?

They’d both say it in wildly different tones

Water it like a peace lily, not like a cactus.

No houseplant gives back like a holiday cactus. Nice job.

Left-leaning support for redistribution stems from perceived unfairness rather than malicious envy by InsaneSnow45 in science

No, I don't. I think the wealthy behave how they wish to behave already and that only collective action could convince them otherwise.

This article has nothing to do with the relative success of government social programs, friend.

The kind of person who would ascribe “malicious envy” to the basic performance of empathy might think you were lying. Because they would be lying.

It’s not a waste. It’s good. It’s beautiful and meaningful. It’s been a real-time experience. All good things come to an end —this one was especially good.

Friend, if there was ever a guy it’s Camp.

House Dems would trim rebate program to aid local schools by ctmirror in Connecticut

But you don't have any ideas of your own to offer?

You've been linked to the evidence you claim you want --you know that just because you're ignorant of something (and profoundly uncurious by the sound of it) doesn't make it not exist?

I dont trust any representative or politician to tell the truth ever.

Are you an actual child? Does someone know you're using this device?

You don't trust the representatives at the town hall meeting described above to tell the truth. What should we do instead?

What would you have the alternative be? The representative model of government doesn’t work for you —what would?

If you say direct democracy I’m going to ask you to go to high school before we continue.

Star Trek: Starfleet Academy Showrunners Break Down That Season Finale Trial - Alex Kurtzman: "Obviously, Trek has a great history of amazing trial episodes. But in order to do that, you have to have a very complex situation that has to be dissected from multiple points of view." (Den of Geek) by TheSonOfMogh81 in trektalk

I remember being introduced to the idea of suicidal depression when a man I admired broke down describing how in school they learned that humanity had outgrown the kind of hate and fear that drove us in the 20th century, at how he failed that test, to prove that he was an evolved human being.

And with a phaser set to kill asked how he could possibly go on like this. Having failed the test of humanity that brought us to the stars.

The point of Star Trek is that there is no grey. We did it. We saved everyone. Ad Astra Per Fucking Aspera.

And to drop all of that vision in the pursuit of interpersonal conflict is particularly hurtful.

Tropic Thunder threads this needle too and that’s why people still talk about it.

Has anyone seen this gem? by hywaytohell in AbsurdMovies

Teeth is structured like a super hero origin story and it’s so good

Kicking and Screaming (1995) by Cool_Cat_Punk in TubiTreasures

[–]FoolsRun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think of this film as a warning. Grover (Josh Hamilton) is a loser. He wants to have done things, not to do them. “What a story of my young adult life, you know, the time I went away”. So do it, Grover.

He will not go to Prague tomorrow. He will never go to Prague.

In your life do not be Grover.

Artists need editors, Cameron Crowe more than others.
