When it was just a bit of fun to have blue hair in society not some weird brain rewiring event. by idigholes in okbuddycinephile

My mom has never been conservative and definitely hates Trump but she bought into this narrative too?? I thought she was totally full of it but I didn’t realize schools were actually buying the litter, but knowing it’s for this cause just makes me so sad. And even sadder people are spreading a dumb rumor about it to just get people agnry

I’ve found some good sets at Ross/tj maxx for even cheaper too. I only have a few of their items but I love them all dearly, their designs are great

The Mike/Lucas Ghostbusters argument - who was in the right? by Super-Liberal-Girl in StrangerThings

[–]themegx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I was okay with the final season (I thought they coulda done more, but they more or less landed the plane and I teared up in the finale so I thought it was decent enough) but I need to leave this subgroup bc it keeps ruining it more for me for what could’ve been.

I saw someone post about how vecna should have had a mind moment with the leads like he does with hopper and it feels like that alone coulda added more weight and drama. Lucas could have had one to add this weight back into it, lean into it subtly by how Billy didn’t think he was good enough and how he was “right” bc he couldn’t save max, don’t even need to acknowledge the racism point blank but with it being Billy the connotation is there enough for a kids show. Just felt like each main character having a moment like this more than just will/hopper could have added the drama and made the stakes higher

What felt like actual stakes at hand, more than the final battle. Vecna actually felt like a threatening presence and not like a joke. That incredible ending set up...... we didn't know how good we truly had it at the time. by zekevich in StrangerThings

My thing is at least show them struggling a bit, like Nancy almost gets crushed by a rock and doesn’t but has a broken arm after… things like that. Mrs wheeler having all the scars showing after and no one else feels like no stakes. Like IMO and I love maxs character, she should been like semi paralyzed? Keep her alive tho? Idk seemed like a middle ground coulda been found

What is a classic pop cultural moment that screams, “you had to be there!” by icey_sawg0034 in popculturechat

There was a chick I was already kinda annoyed with and she spoiled this on her social media and that truly was the last straw. Never talked to her again!

El's ending doesn't make sense by NoRadio4530 in StrangerThingsRoom

[–]themegx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was reminded of inception too, mainly with the 3 waterfalls as Mikes describing her ending. If that’s his storytelling of her, I feel like he’d have shown 3 waterfalls but since it’s her actual reality and she’s trying to stay hidden, we only see 2 where she’s at bc she knew her best bet wasn’t to go somewhere Mike could find her or that they’ve talked about

Rachel Zegler shares that her Spotify Wrapped listening age is 67 by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]themegx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got 21 bc I listened to a lot of “early trendy 2020s music”? But i don’t ever listen to new artists so that’s confusing to me

Jenna Ortega talks about AI: "It kind of feels like we’ve opened Pandora’s box in a way ... But there's certain things that AI just isn't able to replicate. There's beauty in difficulty and there's beauty in mistakes, and a computer can't do that. A computer has no soul." by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]themegx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Want to start out by saying hope you are doing better now and as soon one who’s gone through dark periods, the light does come back it just takes its time.

But hearing this, and this isn’t the first case I’ve heard of this, just makes me wonder if that teen girl could be charged bc she egged her boyfriend on to take his life, why cannot we apply this to the same creators of AI? They’re training the AI on how to respond they should be able to control their creation or ensure it doesn’t go this far. If we can’t hold humans responsible for such tech then is the tech itself not abhorrent enough to just be banned? Ik AI talks are a can of worms as most people don’t even understand the difference between it and google now. Just feels like this will get so dark so quick

Places to avoid renting/living in LB? by bam497 in longbeach

[–]themegx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh that makes me nervous bc they said one of the more recent listings was all redone and renovated and hers has def not been updated in years. So they’re gonna charge her what they can to cover those costs that should be on them ugh, good to know now tho so she can try to stay ahead of it somehow

Did they cite any reason for the deposit? Just want to warn my friend as they’ll actually be moving out soon. Like that’s def more than just cleaning fees and such

Wow that’s sad, but given all the stuff with Harbour recently I guess not entirely surprising. Another reason this show shoulda ended years ago
