I’d say we’re about to enter the cool zone, but I feel like we’ve been here for a while. Guess we’re entering the cool zone’s cool zone.

Do you think western governments realize that there is a slowly growing disillusionment with democracy in their populations and that their increasingly erratic bullshit is feeding it?

You seem like a genocide enthusiast.

Because usually when they reboot it’s very poorly planned and they don’t tell writers far enough in advance. That’s why the New 52 was so confusing with Green Lantern and Batman continuing their pre-reboot storylines while there was a brand new superman, brand new Wonder Woman, etc. If they gave a writer like two years to conclude the story of Batman before a reboot that would be cool, but will never happen because comic book publishing houses are run by petty, nepotistic hacks.

The excuse is that it’s a detective story that’s been running for nearly 90 years and wants to keep running for 90 more.

She’s been an anti-hero for like 15 years. Batman usually gives her a pass.

The curse doesn’t get fixed because the story is about Batman solving crimes and if the crimes stop there’s no more story.

I think this is why he can’t get his head in the game when it comes to giving her a derisive silly nickname. His style requires spontaneity. “Sleepy joe” isn’t something you think about, it’s something you feel. But all of Donald’s off the cuff thoughts on Kamala thoughts are just hideously racist.

Being here and on the bad site, I feel like a weirdo for thinking dating apps are fine. Every long term partner I’ve had I’ve met through friends or at parties or whatever, but the experiences I’ve had with online dating have been mostly positive. If nothing else I got to meet and spend time with the sort of people who I otherwise wouldn’t meet through my social circle.

Pert. Yet supple.

For many people work is 100% of their social network besides their family. They have an unfulfilled basic need that gets bottled up and so gets expressed in unhealthy ways. My boss, who is the only one I hear weird shit like this from, has explicitly told me that he doesn’t have any friends and hasn’t for years. I feel sort of bad for him but then he says shit like gen z is beta and the feeling goes away.
