We’ve developed the ability to cure trauma in a matter of minutes.

That’s incredible. What sort of things will it be used for?

Mostly manipulating nonviolent prisoners into being more submissive.

These people are visionless losers on top of being liars and their lack of empathy would be pathetic if it wasn’t being rewarded so heavily by porky

I couldn’t watch much of it. It was embarrassing. I worry that accurately describing the extent to which Biden seemed ill will come off as an exaggeration. Normally they give him something to perk him up and let him speak with his chest for an hour. He just couldn’t get it done last night.

I had a speech impediment until like 10th grade so I feel this in my bones. Everyone used to come up and tell me, “Hey [TheDoctor], say [the r word] for me. Real quick.”

Edit: Did I say “everyone”? I meant my friends. Only my friends did that to me. I’m autistic btw.

It’s had several peer reviewed rebuttals that are damning, however.

You might say, the high-finance equivalent of the guys who come to break your legs.

Me when I’m writing excellent error handling. Think this is bad? You can’t even imagine the errors I’m saving you from.

I’m trying to figure out if I wanna get one of these for the family to share and they look pretty cheap. I like that the ones I see advertised come preloaded with games so I don’t have to do all the setup and downloading. But I’m capable of doing that setup if there’s a better device that doesn’t come preloaded.

I’m researching hair removal and the sheer amount of options as well as the range in price just seems daunting. Why are there $30 devices and also $300 devices? And why would people chose to pay more for a single session than the device costs on its own?

It was the most trans movie I’ve ever seen and I don’t know what to do with it.

spoilersI cried when she aged twenty years instead of going back. And I’m pretty sure the ending means she never went back. What a heartbreaking movie.

I was also really struck by usage of tv screens to act less like corrupting forced and more like windows into people’s essences. The idea that TVs are corrupting the youth is so pervasive even now that the usage confused me at first. I remember seeing the scene from the trailer where the main character is being pulled into the tv, remembering that scene while watching the movie and thinking, “wait, they’re gonna somehow make me root for that happening?”

I think there’s an interesting subversion of delusion happening in general in the movie. In most other movies, but big reveal in the bar would be framed like someone losing their mind. But instead it plants genuine doubt and manages to convince the audience that the world they’ve been inhabiting is not real.

I’m not absolutely devastated like so many people have been but maybe I hyped it up in my head. I managed to avoid spoilers. But emotionally I had heavy expectations for it. I also can’t get it out of my head. It’s just swirling around in there.

I don’t know how anyone can watch it and not see the transness of it, but apparently some people do.
