Interesting teaser but that isn’t enough to get me invested.

So posted right at the same time as this was another trailer for a new movie.

This has comments, the other doesn’t.

Guess what gets people’s attention? Shit they can recognize and have some idea what it is and will be.

I see this time and again.

I’m not even disagreeing with you, just please help comment on the others and help them get noticed.

Non sequels are being made.

If your society has made so many things illegal that your prisons are overflowing, it’s time to seriously reconsider your priorities.

If only the US would follow a similar path.

The authors themselves didn’t get Heinlein’s Starship Troopers.

His story is told through the lens of one who has accepted the propaganda. The first few pages describe what is actually going on, then we go to the perspective of the teenager who is considering signing up.

As such, the movie is closer to the book than most acknowledge, despite the loss of all the mechsuits.

Yup! The Botany of Desire. Good read.

Focuses on how apples, potatoes, tulips, and cannabis have all been vastly successful at being spread by humans because we find them useful.

Of all the posts I’ve ever seen here, I think this is the first by the creator.

Bravo!

Yes! You’ll see that other parts of the house look dirty and just dust a little, put a few things away, organize…

It’s surprisingly effective to have a little robot buddy!

So DEI now just means the job went to a non-white, non-GOP, not-male person.

Convenient.
