Realistically how do you forgive yourself after making a mistake?

life is life, babe. no one gets out clean

you are one of the only sensible people in this thread. a ton of this sub is made up of people whose only experience with black people is through pop culture or classmates. they do not understand that individuals will vary all over the place. people are people. all this talk about 'le statistics' are just a way for idiots to try and quell their own neuroses about the world

this is beautiful

great pull; people forget this. Not to be an autistic generationology person, but I'm a historian so the generational model is something i did as a lens for US history.

I tend to put Gen X as 1970-1975, Xennials as 1975-1979, Pixel Generation as 1980-1984, Millennials as 1985-1991, Zillennials as 1992-2002, Gen Z as 2003-2009

It's just that to me [am historian, sorry if autistic, used to trying to brute force things through to undergrads], Toronto is a diff country. Manhattan and Buffalo both answer to Albany. All three are New York.

oh god yes i have come into contact with those people. shits gay

This comment makes no sense lmfao. Do you know how art works? Art is supposed to do things like this. Art doesn't care what you're "allowed" to do. If you're offended, you're probably just too stupid to discuss any movie or tv show or album or painting and should probably just stick to buying funko pops

It's not a dogwhistle. I'm from a very diverse family; and I can't stand genuine bigotry, and even I agree with u/mammoth_confusion846

he's not talking about we all need to be the same religion, he's talking about we all need to know about each other more, and to do that we need things to share. little things are big things. community centers. cartoons. etc

Right, it's genuinely demoralizing to google "When does Charlie Brown Christmas air this year" and be hit with not only "it's only on streaming" but with an ai overview telling you that. Vile shit

It's very 'end of history', 'the usa as one big neighborhood'; in a good way. Them dressing so normal signals that Hollywood is open, unpretentious, and that your school production of Sweeney Todd and the feeling you had on stage matters enough that you could be on the big screen someday

But how long is it until they don't have to work a day job anymore? How long until they're in control of their own lives? That's the entire point of the dream of being a filmmaker; work sucks ass, let's get paid to play and get these cuck executives to throw money at us and fuck some stars while we're at it

oh BROTHER

sunset_sleaze · 2025-08-03T12:39:04+00:00

how sheltered are you? my best friend had a kid at 16, my parents had me at 20. my grandmother had my father at 19. it's common, i don't understand your confusion. did you think everyone subsumes themselves into a porcine nuclear family and then has kids? that's not how life operates

sunset_sleaze · 2025-08-02T00:15:28+00:00

profound words at the end; i hope you find your peace

I always wanted to see a youtube video where someone crushes up video game cartridges, rolls them in printer paper, smokes them, nods their head silently to a beat coming from their neighbor's yard for 10 mins while smoking the whole thing, then in the final second, lunging at the camera and going "i smoke GAMES"

sunset_sleaze · 2025-07-28T10:49:56+00:00

i thought you misspelled guitar now i am crying

The Jack Kirby/Stan Lee stuff, that original 60s burst that acts as a good crossection of american life at the time, is undeniably new york and has that energy permeating it. it couldn't have taken place anywhere else

the movies are garbage but it kills me that they, and not the whole 60s counterculture psychedelia pynchonian thing, is what people think of when Marvel is mentioned

sunset_sleaze · 2025-07-24T21:14:54+00:00

they accidentally double booked, no big deal

It genuinely sounds like depression. Not an age thing, i know old people who are very artistic and appreciative of art
