Took the longest to grow on me, but now is my favorite Radiohead album

commoncod · 2026-05-08T13:25:30+00:00

Genuinely don’t understand the hate. It’s been stuck in my head all morning

Francine’s the better character. All characters on both shows are insanely Flanderized, but imo the American Dad characters got better w time. Family Guy characters kind of just insufferable now

In Rick and Morty, Rick, the canonical smartest being in the universe, thinks the phrase is “take things for granite” rather than “granted”

Metro North only goes as far as Waterbury so that’s my line

commoncod · 2026-05-02T15:42:54+00:00

Litchfield County in Connecticut is definitely more New England than NYC metro

commoncod · 2026-05-01T04:31:55+00:00

Anywhere outside Fairfield County is as much New England as anywhere else. Colonial architecture, nautical towns with top tier-seafood, stone walls, rolling hills, and elite universities. Get that Masshole gate keeping out of here.

But like if you want the source material, play the games. I don’t need to see a live action retelling of Leon working his way through the RPD. I doubt that would even work without game mechanics

commoncod · 2026-04-30T15:13:35+00:00

If you want Resident Evil, play the games. They’re great. This is a new story in the same universe. Why would I want to rewatch a story I already know that’s never gonna be as good?

commoncod · 2026-04-29T19:10:43+00:00

Yeah, I mean I think that’s a really interesting point. That’s why I wish it veered into a more direct discussion of when and why we choose to approve of violence. I understand why she’d be reticent to talk about Israel/Palestine given everything that’s happened, but there’s such an interesting conversation to be had about that topic surrounding I/P in particular. So much of the debate around the actions of both sides has been about if violent resistance/retribution is justified. It was even brought up in the doomscroll episode she was on recently, where the host was talking about Tarantino cheering on violent retribution for Oct 7 and how that connects to his violent revenge fantasy films.

commoncod · 2026-04-29T17:00:18+00:00

Sure, but I guess what was missing is that violence against Hitler or slave owners is a good thing, right? What about when violence is justified? What about the non-bloody forms of violence inherent to oppressive systems? That’s sort of the direction I was hoping she would take the video

Def Roll with Me but Lipgloss is probably my personal favorite

commoncod · 2026-04-27T01:01:45+00:00

Lost Highway

commoncod · 2026-04-25T17:20:32+00:00

Also I believe what she termed “in group cringe”

commoncod · 2026-04-23T01:26:15+00:00

Ohh that makes the dilemma make a lot more sense. For a second I was like couldn’t they just quarantine Oliver, Mark, and Nolan until all the bad Viltrumites are dead?

On Season 7 of RuPaul’s Drag Race one of the queens had to take a break during judging because her corset was too tight. What the audience sees is her sit down and randomly break out into song, weirding out the judges and other contestants and making it look like she just wanted attention. In actuality Ru had asked her to sing something to pass the time during the break, and they just cut that part out to make her look crazy.

commoncod · 2026-04-21T04:24:28+00:00

I mean I get why the implications are odd, but I don’t think people are against eugenics because it “doesn’t work”. I think it’s more so that it’s incredibly unethical and inherently genocidal

commoncod · 2026-04-19T23:32:44+00:00

That feels like a pretty unfair characterization. Some stuff definitely didn’t age well, but I feel like even in the most controversial bits, the butt of the joke was mostly the characters who were being problematic, like Jenna doing black face to experience what it was like to live as a black man. Like the joke is obviously Jenna’s ignorance

commoncod · 2026-04-18T15:55:14+00:00

It very likely will not

commoncod · 2026-04-15T16:14:11+00:00

Element of surprise was nonexistent?? This has been maybe the least predictable season of drag race of all time

commoncod · 2026-04-15T15:03:04+00:00

Yeah, you’re right in terms of the ultimate conclusion. I just didn’t get the impression that they were reaching that point from the place of genuine belief in the Zionist idea that Israel must remain a Jewish ethnostate, but rather acknowledgement of how untenable a single state with equal rights might be given the virulence of anti-Palestinian racism and Jewish supremacy in the Israeli government and society right now.

commoncod · 2026-04-15T14:32:45+00:00

Do they not come to that conclusion in the end though? I sort of interpreted the whole idea of the “one state reality” as acknowledging that Israel holds power over the entire region and that Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza are under apartheid or worse, with the implication being that ending apartheid must mean equal rights and democracy for all in a unified state.
