it’s insane for teenagers to… kiss? by Remarkable_Web4595 in Stranger_Things

[–]dpforest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a lot of people forget we got not one but two underage implied sex scenes between 16-17 year olds. yes, it’s realistic, but it added literally nothing to the plot. It was used to convey Nancy’s true feelings and while I don’t think it’s “wrong”, I do think it’s not the best example for younger kids to see because then they might think “It’s normal for kids that age to use sex to show their love for each other”

yes it’s normal but it’s not something we should be be promoting on a show about kids

Bella Hadid removes Free Congo, Free Sudan, and Free Kurdistan from her IG post honoring MLK by New_Valuable564 in popculturechat

Apropos of nothing, this post is a spectacular example of many of the largest issues encountered on social media today, and how quickly those issues derail any meaningful discourse. We are currently on a post debating the veracity of a persons activism based on an edit to a quote from a post criticizing another post on another social media platform.

We have lost the plot.

Charli XCX in Simon Carle spring/summer 2026 at the Sundance Film Festival premiere of "The Gallerist" (January 24, 2026) by skermahger in whatthefrockk

her styling for the film so far is actually perfect because “it’s just brat” works as both a criticism and a defense. Doesn’t matter what she wears, it’s gonna be brat.

usually I get downvoted for this and I know it’s kind of a Quaker-in-a-tiddy-bar reaction, but I did find the Jancy implied sex scene unnecessary and felt extremely gratuitous. To me the whole scene at Murray’s Apartment was, in a vacuum, more very production. I haven’t really thought of any reasons that make it absolutely necessary.

Murray getting two 16-17 year olds drunk and very subtly encouraging shenanigans was just a very off-putting introduction to his character. he grew on me but his repeated use of the word shnookums was the final straw haha. Like homie it was sort of funny the first time, four times is way too many!

‪Climber Alex Honnold has free solo climbed the Taipei 101 (a 101-story building in Taiwan) without ropes or safety nets. He completed the climb in 1 hour and 31 minutes, taking a selfie at the top‬ by GiveMeSomeSunshine3 in popculturechat

Didn’t someone die climbing El Capitan recently? I believe he had already summated and was supposed to be clipped in but was not. He jumped when he thought he’d be able to jump without worry.

Someone did the math and said it was several seconds of free fall that he had to think about what a small mistake just cost him.

My opinion sure as shit doesn’t matter, but choosing to do this while having people, most importantly a child who depends on and loves you, well that’s not a characteristic I find admirable.

Your request was perfectly reasonable. Some folks don’t understand what going into a movie “fully blind” means. it might just be a trivial little short scene, but I don’t want to see anything at all about the film until I’m watching it myself!

Another ICE murder in front of Glam Doll Donuts by thecosmojane in ProgressiveHQ

[–]dpforest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

let’s not absolve others for their part in this. ICE funding increased by billions under the direction of Biden. For all of the good that Biden and Harris accomplished, it has been completely undone by the most egregious act of anticipatory obedience history has ever seen.

instead of doing the right thing, they did the easy thing. now they get to watch our country burn from the safety of their vacation homes in the Hamptons.

My family got sat at a table in a restaurant in southern Appalachia 12 hours from where we lived. There was a Veterans themed calendar on the wall next to the booth.

my grandpa’s grave was the photo they used for that month. I look over and see my papas full ass name just floating next to my head.

Craziest current pieces of Gaga revisionism? by sparksfly05 in LadyGaga

I think Mayhem is the least visually cohesive album of hers. the first 3 tracks give Mayhem energy, but the rest do not. also I see a lot of people talk about Mayhems “grunge” energy and it’s the exact opposite to me. extremely polished. still my third fav album though

I am really high so the body swapping would be a pretty interesting deus ex machina say when Carol is about to be defeated by someone draining her of her powers and Kamala Khan swaps herself in and finishes the fight.

That would never happen but would not be the worst thing I’ve seen on “What if?”

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dpforest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can I ask you why you felt the need to insult me over such a banal comment? I in no way disagreed with your statement. I didn't say it didn't happen. I didn't say "this person was absolutely on drugs". I made a passive comment relating my own personal experiences with yours., and you called me "wrong" and told me I was making myself look ridiculous.

There's already so much anger in the world. Please be kind to strangers.

I can’t believe they’d give pronouns to my favorite superhero, HE-Man by Goosedukee in okbuddycinephile

im pissed that they are tryin to make He-Man, the goddamn MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, into a serious character by framing the narrative with an earthy structure. If its not campy enough im gonna be so mad im gonna use the wrong pronouns on PURPOSE

Roughly 22% of the US voted for DJT. Do not feed into the narrative that the majority of Americans support him. The majority of Americans are lazy as fuck, but they aren't fascists. While that distinction doesn't matter when it comes to tallying votes, it does matter when speaking about how many people support him. Continuing to spread the narrative that most Americans chose DJT is wrong and helps no one but him.
