That is so insane to me. Even if you were a rich mofo, you really okay living in a bunker? Like do they think their life will be just as cushy without the sun or nature? No matter how many swimming pools or tv screens underground with golden toilets or whatever the fuck they put in their bunkers - life without the planet will suck. Humans aren’t meant to live underground for an extended period. There’s a reason my therapists keep telling me to go outside and get some sun and fresh air.

It really brings me down when I think about how many people died due to the orange turd.

How is it defamatory if it’s true?

I guess I just don’t see 10 years as old enough for a reboot. Or even that old for a tv show. I think reboots, I think like She-ra or Saved by the bell or something. Rebooting the office while people still rewatch it heavily just seems weird.

I would like to echo this. Without getting into specifics, beehaw was one of the few spaces taking a nuanced take to a political topic that pretty much kept me from descending into the despair of thinking there was a lot of heartless people out there.

It helped my level of cynicism and I can’t overstate how impactful that’s been.

Humanities isn’t to teach people to be good. It’s to teach people to critically think, communicate well, and understand each other through various lenses. People may be inclined to act more ethically when they do these things however. And can more clearly understand other perspectives.

I mean, I’m sure there’s people’s jobs it is to monitor marketing at these companies? Unlikely they’d go thru the trouble of setting up an ad campaign just to cancel it and claim nazis if it wasn’t true?

I don’t know though, I stay off twitter - especially now.

Reading that article was a highlight of my day. I dislike FB/Meta but at least Zuckerberg can string a sentence together than doesn’t make him sound 13 and going thru a phase.
