"Piracy can't be stealing if paying for it isn't owning"
This is increasingly how it feels, when things you "own" digitally become inaccessible, and when shows which are locked in streaming services can get delisted on a whim, disappearing forever.
Thank you @Illuminatus for this quote.
[Edit: In case this wasn't clear, this is about entertainment and digital ownership, not physical goods]
When you listen to The Verge's podcast and they're legitimately saying Mastodon is a "no girls allowed" club? And we don't want Facebook here because Instagram will bring women here?!
What the fuck is wrong with these American tech pundits? Mastodon is the gayest, transest, most feminine social network I've ever seen. There are so many more outspoken, smart, odd, and downright weird women here than I've ever seen on any other social network. It's fucking great.
I love when I go to put a new book on my to read list, and it’s already there 🥰
It usually means I should read that book next!
The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract.
If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it.
In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.
Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated.
[inspired by “Tolerance is not a moral precept”]
Haunted Mansion was enjoyable enough, but nothing special in my opinion. I thought the ride tie ins were clever, but the jokes didn’t always land, and the plot was mostly predictable.
I know it’s a Disney movie but I would have upped the scariness and tried to do something more unexpected with the plot.
That being said, I’ll take Tiffany Haddish and Jamie Lee Curtis as pshychis any day!
