Dude you’re not understanding my point. Like I said, it matters how the film/situation is shown to the audience. Yes interstellar is fictional, but it is also about a possible future for our planet. All it does is buy into the trope of saving the planet through space, and show audiences how seemingly cool that would be.

I never said I didn’t like the scene it was set in, I said I don’t like their reaction to the scene. The dystopian cyberpunk I like cause at least they didn’t give up 🤷

Ion what you tryna say, it was honestly a whole lot of nothing. Wtf does “trying to unmix brown pigments” mean? That’s cryptic asf and doesn’t make any sense, wouldn’t it be impossible to unmix any pigment color combo? And wtf does that sort of metaphor even mean?

Look man, what I was saying in response to your comment was that I don’t think it’s acceptable to call the planet an unfixable mess. Maybe it’s easier to start fresh for some people, but that was literally the problem I was trying to point out to you.

I just hate how Interstellar tells the audience that in a climate apocalypse, the only solution is to leave the planet. It’s ecofascism

Who is the mess? Going off world, to me, is the perfect opportunity for billionaire and bureaucratic assholes to try and create an ethno state. Who decides who gets to leave the planet? This planet isn’t a mess, that’s what eco-fascists want you to believe

I thought the bigger issue was the premise. If earth is in a climate apocalypse, and we have extremely advanced technology that lets us bring life to far out planets, then why are we leaving earth? Can’t those same technologies be applied to saving the earth people?

The whole “we have to go space” feels like manifest destiny and the desperate urge of capitalism to expand.

I aspire to love life as much as you do

Is it so bad to know your multiplication tables? It’s lowk a quality of life thing yknow. imo it’s just a good thing to know so you aren’t entirely reliant on the calculator for an answer.

Yeah it makes you drive a lot slower which is inherently safer than drunk driving (even though you’re still under the influence). In my experience, I tend to have way too much fun drunk driving. High driving I’m either a little paranoid or chilled out so I’m driving safe. Drunk driving I get excited and do stupid shit.

Lowk I think the issue is when you’re an alcoholic cause you get complacent. An infrequent drunk driver is still a little on edge and doesn’t want to fuck up. An alcoholic drunk driver thinks it’s normal to drunk drive

Based asf. My friends tell me I drive safer when I’m high 😭

No shit people were asking if you were tired of drinking soylent. To the average person it sounds damn near psychopathic if you get all your nutritional needs from a drink. Lock in bro

I enjoy the taste of food

Are you a robot perchance? Bro seriously are you fucking with me or smtn. What do you mean you drank so much soylent you lost track of how long you drank it. And it’s like some sort of drug that you just go on and off of?

Like if I was talking about eating pasta and I described it as

I enjoy the taste of Soylent, but eating physical food is extremely compelling to me. I did it for months if not years”

everyone is gonna think I’m schizo

Is this shi real 😭 isnt soylent a made up food from a dystopian movie? How do so many people in this thread have experience with soylent

Depends on your feed. rn most people are getting gore lol. Some part of the algorithm got fucked and it looks like liveleak.

Most of the racism I see on ig comedic and self aware. Not that it’s good, but it’s not meant as a far-right agenda pushing racism. More of a “I’m gonna make fun of minorities bc I think it’s funny and I don’t care about politics”

That’s gonna fuck up your stroke bruh. If you want a seat cushion for a rowing machine a folded towel or a piece of an old yoga mat will do. You can buy more expensive rowing specific seat cushions but it’s lowk not worth it unless you’re spending a serious amount of time on the erg (and are still uncomfortable)
