I suppose that it's kind of a chicken and egg situation that the same folks who claim that if society was to break down everyone would become roving gangs of bandits are also the same people with neither the patience nor knowledge to form communities where farming and such like are a thing. No patience for crops or a self-sustaining community, have to steal from the people who actually were able to get their stuff working.

Same as how people who claim that laws or religion are the only things keeping people from just murdering random people are probably the most likely to start murdering people once they think they have an excuse to do so.

I need you young people to know it was almost never this hot when I was a child. Millennials and Gen Xers are all nostalgic and excited about summer because it was about ten to twenty degrees cooler to experience it back then!

I cannot express to you how FAST it has gone. I grew up in a world that does not exist now.
We're starting on the path to reverse it, globally. You might not know how much solar has EXPLODED in the last decade or two. It's gone from a side thing, a weirdo novelty that was just Not Viable... to whole countries investing in infrastructure.

but we have to keep fighting big oil and fascism everywhere we can in order to keep on this road to a new better less scorching burning earth.

But any time you wonder wtf the weather is doing- THIS IS NOT NORMAL, NO. THIS IS NOT WHAT IT WAS EVEN TWENTY YEARS AGO.

every now n then i think about how native americans as human beings just dont exist in like 99% of mainstream media. in movies or tv shows or books or video games or you know even in porn like we just arent people. when theres a native character theyre like a wild west indian. like truly to ppl we all died back in the 1900s.

even in things like surveys we are often forgotten about entirely, made out to be so small we’re not important enough/statistically significant enough to bother polling or we’re relegated as literal ‘other’s

‘Wonder Man’ Co-Creator Says ‘Contracts Were Signed, Schedules Were Cleared’ Before Marvel Series Was Canceled: ‘This Is Not a Marketing Stu
'Wonder Man' co-creator Andrew Guest shared his reaction on TikTok after the Marvel series was canceled.
Variety

Great way to run a very normal studio that's doing GREAT right now

You know

Like bringing back a bunch of actors from movies that came out a decade or more ago in a desperate attempt to nostalgia bait your dwindling viewership to please PLEASE for the love of god buy a movie ticket XD

Pixar's Layoffs Came Days After Receiving a $26 Million Tax Credit. So I Wrote California Officials.
State tax incentives should create and retain jobs for Californians, not subsidize corporate layoffs.
amidamidi.substack.com

So it seems that Pixar received a tax credit to retain staff, only to then fire them anyway so they could then rehire them for less money on a project by project basis.

Apparently this might count as tax fraud?

i think the marvel vs dc conversation is bad because they're very different animals and i think its very obvious in how they approach the avengers and the justice league, even if you compare it between dceu and mcu, because at the end of the day superheroes in marvel seem to be allied with the governemtn regardless of their cause, like shield and avengers seem to be deeply connected in both fucntion and system because they're lead by a military guy and then the league in itself is funny because literally no one gets paid, they consider it volunteer work, that they operate outside of the planet so they would not be beholden to one state

the Avengers: you don't understand, we HAVE to work with the government. to protect people.

the JL, in their satellite floating just outside of Earth's jurisdiction: lmao ok

Me and my gf are currently reading JLA/Avengers together 'cause its being re-released so I can buy it for her without having to spend a fortune on a trade paperback that we cannot afford and it is hilarious that when the JLA arrive in the Marvel universe their collective reaction is "WHAT THE FUCK WENT HORRIBLY WRONG HERE"

Meanwhile when the Avengers arrive in the DCU the reaction of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch is "Wait what do you mean the people in this universe DON'T want to genocide us for having superpowers???? Building killer robots to wipe out an entire species is actually ILLEGAL here? This is WILD"
