for the self-obsessed pedo creep who apparently wrote 'the professional' as a thinly veiled allegory for his own inappropriate relationships with young girls, i'm now squinting very hard at the movie about someone named luc-y who attains godhood and then bestows enlightenment/sentience to the human race

Will always find it very funny that the dominos pizza guy has been known as a huge booster for fundie politics for literal decades now but people act like the notion of unwoke chain food branding began and ended with chick-fil-a

If it has a drive thru, you are almost certainly helping global fascism by eating there.

The best part of the later books is how much lewis hates the older sister because she was more interested in socializing and dating than make believe and there was not allowed in heaven.

The books didn't interest me as a kid so I've never known anything about that series beyond that there's a Lion and I guess it's meant to be a Christian allegory.

I dunno. My mom loves the books and she has always been a socialist. She hasn't been all that religious either (I'm not baptized and neither is my siblings). I generally think you should be really loving careful about saying that fiction dictates behavior. Alhazred has issued a correction as of 11:39 on Oct 26, 2020 |

Zvahl posted:republicans_vs_democrats.txt The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley feudal ties that bound man to his “natural superiors”, and has left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous “cash payment”. It has drowned the most heavenly ecstasies of religious fervour, of chivalrous enthusiasm, of philistine sentimentalism, in the icy water of egotistical calculation. It has resolved personal worth into exchange value, and in place of the numberless indefeasible chartered freedoms, has set up that single, unconscionable freedom — Free Trade. In one word, for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, it has substituted naked, shameless, direct, brutal exploitation.

Jennifer Lawrence turned 18 in August 2008 and is from Kentucky, so it's very possible that the first vote she ever cast was for Mitch McConnell.

Some Guy TT posted:I thought the movie series stopped because nobody liked it and it wasn't making enough money There was also the issue that they had run out of books in the series where the Christianity Metaphor could be easily smoothed into inoffensive non-denominational feel-goods. The remaining books were: Why Islam is totally lame Aslan turns to the reader/screen and says "Yes I am literally Jesus" while saying Atheism is of the devil. A retelling of Genesis where Nuclear Weapons are original sin invented by Satan. How Muslims saying they worship the Abrahamic God is a dirty lie invented by Satan, but the good ones can still get to heaven by accidentally loving Jesus, Narnia is destroyed by invading Muslims, and the Apocalypse happens and Aslan sends a bunch of cute talking animals to hell. This is also the one where Susan isn't in heaven because the rest die in a train crash on their way to help Narnia but she stayed home and so is still alive on Earth. I think Lewis was going more for "She cared too much about materialism and so stopped believing." Instead of "She was a filthy Whore!" but I can totally see how that reading is plausible considering the rest of the book.

Most of those sound pretty bad but isn’t the bolded one kinda like Episode 8 of Twin Peaks: The Return aka Televison’s Apex?

There are segments like when they travel through Charn (a dead world where all life was wiped out by

I like how the article suggests that lawrence's bootstrap story of paying her own way to New York was probably bullshit but can't be bothered to research lawrence's actual background and is just kind of vaguely speculative about this skepticism

I also found it funny how the jezebel piece cites american hustle as evidence of lawrence's secret chuddery when winters bone the movie that made her a big name is quite literally rural white poverty the movie Dollars to donuts her family still loves trump and lawrence herself is only declaiming him for social reasons
