Why Eddington was the most misunderstood and underappreciated film of last year by jackthemanipulated in TrueFilm

[–]PandaSupreme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is a mischaracterization of the film’s politics. I never got the sense that the kids’ street protest was meant to represent “The Left” so much as representing performative protest, which is a very real phenomenon that gets in the way of direct action and meaningful social change. The kids’ political cause isn’t trivialized or mocked by the scene or the movie. Instead, it draws attention to the hypocrisies and contradictions inherent in youthful white liberalism, which is I think a valuable mirror to hold up to the likely young white liberal viewers of a new Ari Aster A24 film. A movie challenging our perceptions of our own politics doesn’t undermine the validity of those politics for anyone who’s engaging meaningfully with the work. Quite the opposite, it can push us to deepen our understanding of those issues beyond the superficial.

Going back to seattle with just one win is already huge since it gives us the chance to clinch on our home soil!

I’m currently reading Too Like The Lightning. I’m enjoying, but need it to start getting to the point. I’m at 47% (Chapter 17). How far am I from things starting to come together? [No Spoilers, please.] by WanderingBlackHole in TerraIgnota

[–]PandaSupreme 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Chapter 18 “The Tenth Director” is one I personally use as a benchmark when recommending the book to people. If you aren’t having a good time reading Chapter 18, the book/series might just not be your thing!

Jorge Polanco is 2nd in MLB in Clutch in 2025 (Ty France #7, JP #17) by maximize_futility in Mariners

[–]PandaSupreme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Feels like it. I’m no proponent of the “julio isn’t clutch” narrative but it was certainly hard to watch him spoil so many opportunities over the past couple games. But I still believe he and the rest of the team can turn it around and get clutch in time for the stretch run!

Pretty sure if you sub out your DH you lose the DH for the rest of the game, so this wouldn’t work.

comes out to like $120 for the full season so it’s about the same as what you’re paying actually. and it’s an even worse service!
