I feel like #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld is a film people are going to watch themselves today, and realize that it’s not nearly as bad as the RT score suggests or the narrative around it has been

It’s an Iron Man 2 level film, an enjoyable cohesive film, that’s also a bit messy pic.twitter.com/tlTaEGjyio

I think this is french for

the U-2 is so frickin' cool

Got my surgery finally. Flew over to 90210. Horrible weather. Surgery was extremely uneventful other than me having some variation of anxiety and an upset stomach for a couple hours before the surgery began. It's all local anesthesia - you're awake for it. I talked to the surgeon throughout the whole operation. He told me if I wanted to buy a nice 911 I should do it through a broker and not a dealer. I was able to drive home even though they "require" that you get a ride home. I'd honestly have thrown up if I had to have someone drive me home, I was too nauseous from all the drugs.

Got back to my hotel off the beach and just hung out there all day. I wanted to do a lot of walking but it was sideways raining and I can't get the bandages wet. So, I didn't walk much until it was very late when my pain was surging insanely and the rain had let up. I needed to walk as well because it helped with the nausea and more importantly - the blood pooling in my face. By walking I could get more blood into my legs and lessen the pain. I couldn't do anything more intense at home like squats because that would be too intense on the body and blood vessels. The pain was so intense when the anesthesia wore off - the pain pills felt like they did nothing but contribute to my nausea. I ended up walking about 20k steps and talking to someone on the phone for most of it. It was the only way to get the pain off my mind. We argued about immigrants and what it means to be American.

I am an extremely open person with all of my friends. So, naturally, everyone is calling and watching my stories intensely with a lot of questions. People are weirded out but some say things like, "I can see the vision". We'll see where it goes. The healing process is really painful and it takes a while. I hate surgery for good reason. I'm on my third day of recovery and I feel better now. The pain is much less and I have some appetite which makes taking these pills cause less nausea.

I'm just really glad I'm not recovering in NYC right now. I'm back in SF and it's so quiet and peaceful. I don't have to deal with people yelling, loud butt sirens constantly, garbage pickup at 3am every night for 30+ minutes, etc. I miss living here and the parts of the life I had. There are things I enjoy about NYC but even the air you breathe there is so unhealthy for you. I miss the peace and quiet. I miss seeing flowers, trees, and green grass where I lived. I miss seeing tall redwood trees. I miss the sunshine and not living in shadows.

I still can't believe that I had to get surgery for anyone to find me attractive though. This is the life we live.

I'm not sure why i made this thread tbh other than I think I'm starting to think the idea of having women locked away was by and large a good idea.

What is going to happen when gen beta turns into adults and realize that their parents whored themselves out on OF? No matter how bad people think incels are right now, projections are showing its only going to get so much worse.

I didn't looked at brand and thought the jacket looked cool. The package came destroyed because package that cost more than 500 euro are marked so local Muhamed had to make sure to check if it's not iPhone so the package was open and plastic damaged with fingers.

The jacket is like 10kg, very heavy, looks cool but what genius decided to sell Canadian winter jacket in west Europe, that jacket is super warm. Even for Scandinavian capital cities

You know how back in High School you could send candygrams/roses to your friends and crushes on Valentine's Day? I think it would be cool if you could do that on rDrama. You could buy the person you like flowers or something, and then get a cute Valentine's Day badge Maybe you could even give the option of making these gifts anonymous for the stalkers/secret crushes

Another idea is you could have a scoreboard to see who gets the most roses.

I know it's probably too late to do it this year since Valentine's day is in a couple of days, but maybe next year? Just an idea.

SEC Confirms Game Service Roblox Part of 'Active Investigation

• Agency withholds details, saying release may harm efforts

• Company has faced questions about its reported player data

Responding to a Freedom of Information Act request, the commission said in a letter Friday that it couldn't share correspondence between staffers referencing Roblox, saying it could cause "harm to the ongoing enforcement proceeding."

"We have confirmed with Division of Enforcement staff that there are responsive emails between Enforcement staff referencing Roblox and that these emails are a part of an active and ongoing investigation," the commission said.

Bloomberg News couldn't confirm the subject of the investigation. Roblox didn't respond to requests for comment, and the SEC declined to make any additional comment.

Hunterbrook Media reported in November that Roblox was under investigation by the SEC, citing Freedom of Information Act requests. Hunterbrook cited an October letter from the commission saying it was withholding documents "which could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement activities." Its affiliate, Hunterbrook Capital, had a short position in the shares.

In October, the now-defunct short-seller Hindenburg Research published a report on child-safety concerns at Roblox and also alleged that the company had inflated its metrics, including the number of users who regularly play Roblox games and the amount of time they spend on average on the platform....

The video-game company has faced scrutiny over children's safety on the platform. Since 2018, At least two dozen people have been arrested by police in the US, accused of abusing or abducting victims they'd met or groomed using Roblox, Bloomberg News reported in July.

Shares of Roblox fell 11% on Thursday after the company reported slower-than-expected growth in daily users of its service. It reported 85.3 million active users as of year end.

I didn't read any of it but she is really, really passionate about horses in games. Her entire post history is about horses.

mark fisher predicted the current cultural stagnation and how it would infect people's thinking too: a society where the populace is hyper-judgemental, rigid and rejecting of any true deviance from the norm. but even he probably didn't anticipate just how blind people would be to their own lameness. at the time he talked about how leftist spaces had turned into moralizing purity tests that would suffocate discourse, but this mindset isn't limited to the libs anymore, everyone is in on it now too. the political consists of fake resistance; libs calling people names and nazis (drumpf, elmo), chuds spamming wojaks and pepes like its the 2012 reddit rageface era.

the culture industry isn't exactly new either, but it's impressive how it keeps optimizing itself. the biggest pop culture movement is swifties - the most boring, anti-art, corporatized fandom phenomenon in human history. mediocrity has never been more carefully distilled and refined than in her person. rap, once a supposedly vital genre, is currently making headlines for rappers having small peepees and being addicted to bussy and porn. the best youth culture can come up with is either idolizing already dead millenial culture or mass producing brainrot.

mass culture has been trapped in endless nostalgia loops for years, but even the internet - which used to be a wild, chaotic place - has finally been reduced to either hyper-policed, corporate-moderated mush (reddit dot com) or irony-poisoned wastelands where every conversation either degenerates into the same three wojak memes (ding ding ding, this is where we are right now) or is suffocated by asking of the reader to withhold their habituated responses.

this isn't just stagnation, it's full on social decay. if it took on physical form we could observe the brain worms slowly digesting our frontal lobes. I thought I could deal with cultural stagnation but I honestly didn't expect it would become this authoritarian and that its rulers would be this lame.
