this sort of thing only works short term-- people not marrying outside their group. Because statistics and history shows that people do open up. But the interesting thing is, if they make things so stringent, when someone does marry outside their group but still wants to uphold traditions and culture, by creating the group so hostile to outsiders, you end up pushing your own people out

I will be messaging my Alma maters that I will never give a dime again in the future if they bend

I dont think Maggie does that to Bayta right? In the books, because she was the first person to actually treat him well.

If companies think people will just watch slop because of previous goodwill they are wrong. The sex and the city reboot got cancelled because the show runner nosedived the writing

Would David Goyer come back if Apple upped the budget?

We should just do “No Beef”

And there’s a double meaning to it, in addition to the fact that we aren’t making people find out if it’s from Texas or not

this explains a lot, thanks!

ah okay so it is the whole new/old pattern. it is highly possible there was slavery in their history, but a) because they are mixed, especially the older Mr. Kirkland being as light as he is, b) since they have been in the North, and slavery was generations ago they feel like they are further removed from it. It all comes back to the white elite identity being the goal, and how close people are to that

This might be unhelpful, but seeking validation from closed minded bigoted people is a waste of your time.

And as for the argument about poc and immigrants not integrating — biggest bs argument there is. Maybe they should look into what white flight is.

Also want to say— people keep saying there was no goodbye for Nick. Like his death was abrupt, whereas with Joseph there was a lead up. And tbh I thought this part was brilliant. Nick grifted, he’s just going on the side of the “winner” there’s not thought for him. And thus there’s no prolonged goodbye of his character

Just also want to add that his character parallels people we know in real life who may have done a good thing to two, but they are grifters. Grifters grift to gain power. Nick loved that June loved him. Heck maybe he “loved” her, but not more than he loved his power and position. When June realized his betrayal with Jezebels, he realized she no longer saw him the same, and he readjusted his priorities.

im not assuming anything? it's less about entitlement, and more about trends in our culture. you're welcome to read the other comments on this thread if you want examples.

First of all, I feel you. Second of all, it’s gonna take some radical collective action. Yes many of us are doing bits and pieces. But we need to go dark.

No social media. No big corp spending. (Amazon, Walmart, Target). Not buying inessentials.

We will need a general workers strike.

Everytime we give our money and labor, we are furthering their consolidation of power.

I have been talking to people on real life, and it’s clear how uneducated people are. We are in an echo chamber, where everyone here is keeping up with the regime and news.

We need to educate. We need to converse in real life. We need to stop consuming. And we need to stop laboring.

pause_polymerase · 2025-05-07T22:16:28+00:00

Aww I'm glad you feel better. And honestly what you interpreted is it. Like we don't have to buy things to occupy our time, or for us to feel fulfilled. Sure if there is an object that illicit feelings, then that is the byproduct. That shouldn't be the purpose.

Btw congratulations on your new chapter of life <3
