A wife also has the right to know if her husband is cheating. It's not about ownership, it's about STDs. Everyone is entitled to make informed decisions about who they have sex with.

I know situations can be complex but safe sex and informed consent is the backbone of the LGBTQ+ community and I don't think we should throw it away to get some extra dunks.

However, I disagree about the ending. It whacked the movie over the head with a theme-shaped bat until its subsequent paste-form could be anything but misinterpreted.

The ending is often misinterpreted but it's extremely good and subtle in a lot of ways. The speech to Murray at the end isn't meant to be an actual explanation of the character's beliefs. It's Arthur breaking down and embracing a role forced upon him. He didn't kill the three people on the subway because they were awful, it was self defense for the first two and the third because his story wouldn't be believed even if it was the truth. A morally good Arthur would still end with him in prison because the third guy would lie and say the evil clown attacked him and his friends.

It's a lot like Joker's laugh. The traditional Joker laughs at the world, finding some macabre humor in the things he does. But in this movie it's just a medical condition. He's forced to do so and people project motivations on to it. He never wanted any of this to happen but society denies him the opportunity to be anything but the villain.

But they're leaning to their right.

The sauce is pretty good but the chicken is just okay. Most people haven't had a good chicken sauce before Raising Canes. Plus they have some pretty good sponsors like the Cowboys and Post Malone so it covers a wide range of demographics.

Not morally, but the "You agreed not to fact check" was probably a bigger blunder to the American people than supporting per-emptive genocide.

Can you hear this?

Walz felt less polished and made more mistakes but I think Vance lost the debate with 1-2 really bad responses.

Holy fuck curry is amazing.

I thought it would take a long time to make and just be like a normal sauce but this took me 15 minutes and it's the most flavorful thing I've ever eaten. This and rice beats 99% of the meals I've ever eaten.

Let's suppose, hypothetically, we wanted to prove your ears hang low.

debate-me-debate-me

Let's say your ears wobble to and fro. We can deduce from that that you could then tie them in a knot. Following that, we could argue you could also tie them in bow. With both of these things proven by judeo-christian logic, we would now be able to conclusively prove that you could throw them over your shoulder like a continental soldier. If we can say all this, ergo ex facto, your ears do hang low.

 

I'm just doing a head count to see how many liberals we still have on this site.
