Regular psylocibin usage helps me maintain perspective a lot.

Time Enough for Love was my favourite book as a young man. Tried re-reading it recently and really struggled. I feel like the last 20 years of social progress has really dated Heinlein's language especially (less so his ideas). Was a shame.

Joker 2 Electric Boogaloo. I thought it was well made, thought provoking, and a good critique of all the chuds who idolised the first film for the wrong reasons.

The Alters just released, is AA, weird, and very good! Indies are definitely the home for weird experimental shit but I feel like there are going to be more strange, niche games being made for larger budgets as the AAA space splinters and devours itself.

This was going to be my counterexample too. Millions protested in the US, UK, Australia, and elsewhere before any troops were committed and it still didn't help. I dont have solid numbers but I'd be shocked if less than 3.5% of people were involved. They were the biggest protests ever at the time.

I tried to watch it again recently and it looks like absolute trash. I appreciate directors being experimental but at least with old analog formats they scale pretty well with modern resolutions.

He's sucking, not blowing.

Crazy that in his stream with FD a few weeks ago he was adamant that he'd be one of the last people impacted by the immigration/border control nonsense.

I think it just goes to show how, even otherwise well informed people, can underestimate how much fascism will impact them personally. It can be easy to distance yourself until it is in your face, placing you in cuffs, or forcible removing you from your home. I hope he learns a lesson from this experience.

For anyone who wants a non-shit version

Men can be great too, and being a man has lots of perks (beyond even those imposed by patriarchy). Look for allies and you will find them in all gender flavours.
