I just had to find out what Moms for Liberty was. My life is a little worse for it, but at least their naming conventions have changed 0 since One Million Moms.

Yep, the worst kind of story. "Be careful what you wish for, because you might get fine print."

Main characters: make wish Monkey's Paw: gives wish and something else Main characters: Oh, the problem was me wanting the reasonable thing, not that I trusted a really shady entity in asking for it! Me: May I leave this planet now?

As an aircraft crew member, I can confirm: it is all vehicle types, it can be initiated by the vehicle or the ground person, and we all love it. Not really sure about the community size, it's not like I've ever known anyone I waved at.

So many people going "opposite sex does X in relationships" and me just being like "you could stop dating people who do X" and they always look at me like I've sprouted horns. Like seriously, people who do X in relationships don't need to be enabled to continue uncriticized

Uncritical, naive, gullible... no, I think credulous works fine there.

I know Lemmy is tech heavy, and that still passed completely unnoticed.

ROFL! I'll see myself out.

Similar. Riding on rollercoasters, watching wholesome cartoons, and reading good fiction don't feel childish to me, they just feel like well-deserved fun. Why associate that with childhood, when childhood lacked freedom?

I wish it was the latest. This animal abuse has been going on a long time.

But even the prequels are speaking directly to Lucas's feelings about Bush-era politics and the erosion of democracy, where the originals straight up talked about Nam and WWII. Idk, I guess I could understand the Andor hate if I hadn't had a lot of years of people trying to make Star Wars be about the space swords. No cohesive plot, no commentary, no thought provocation, just one cool moment with a space sword leading to the next cool moment with a laser gun. Andor was like "hold my beer." So refreshing.
