It's where women's "liberation" always leads. You don't have to get more than a few chapters into the Bible to know that.

Lord of the Rings. Hasn't been butchered outside one season of one show but I'm afraid they aren't done with it yet.

The number of times that I've heard Galadriel referred to as a girlboss is infuriating. The concepts in the books, especially the stuff on the first and second age, are weighty. The can't be reduced to "swings a sword and yells a lot" or "the force lol" but it seems that's all that modern writers can comprehend.

Go back 15 years. Could you have had OnlyFans? No, because porn was still relegated to the dirty corners of the internet. Yeah it was out there any anyone could find it if they were looking but it was shameful.

Now, porn is pretty socially acceptable. If you are caught with it at work or school you might get in trouble but for the most part, it's a none issue.

Now, we are in a situation where if porn is OK, why not producing porn? And be proud of the fact that you don't contribute anything to society beside images of your naked, young body.

I heard rumors about it and was wondering when it was coming out. Literally was Christmas shopping with my daughter who.loves that kind of stuff and we saw a 20 ft. tall banner about it and she just responded "hmm".

Mine is an out loud boycott of Disney. Have daughters and they are fine to get any of the classic princesses or dress-up stuff.

Modern Disney, though? Family and friends know that it will be returned to the store.

Though legally that might be a bit debatable since they're managing to brainwash girls into thinking this is normal.

That's the crazy part. Imagine going back 10 years and trying to convince people that prostitution would be as widespread and accepted as it is today.

The first step was convincing men that porn is something normal and natural.

Wendigoon does overviews of internet horror content/disappearances/serial killers. Highlights are his videos covering Blood Meridian, Faith, and Uncle.Ted.

If nothing else, he can direct you toward worth-while projects to check out.

I have to watch at 1.5x for my own sanity, however.

Just finished reading Silence. It's about Portuguese missionaries traveling to Japan in the 17th century to follow up with the persecuted church there.

Pretty dreary stuff.

Right? I'm sick and tired of people who see tyrannical or unethical shit and just say "they are just doing what they had to" or "they're just doing their job".

As if being a cog in the machine doesn't perpetuate the function of the machine.

Can you not send remedial, dial-up-like signals over shortwave radio?

The reason for them is because specialized technical fields need them to communicate complex ideas quickly. Especially if you have to use the same few terms over and over again.

Management types adopted this because they think they sound smart like the techies when they spout off a mouthful of acronyms. Bonus points if you have to ask what an acronym means and they can act smug that they knew it and you didn't.

Came here to say this. This principal only works one way. Do not expect progressive "professionals" to be competent despite their political leanings.

Yeah, until you get shut out of every supplier/distributor for "reasons". Do the math ahead of time and come up with a way to mine your own iron and smelt your own steel to ensure that you don't get cancelled.
