It’s disappointing how much they cut out of his personal journey and replaced it with long sections of goofy gags. Those were ok, but not at the expense of character development. It did still feel indulgent in how long some scenes went.

Crazy to me that were producing about as many $10s as $2s. I never see $2s in circulation and run into $10s quite often

That’s basically what Amazon did. They did it even worse: they sold many things below cost. They ran their entire business burning cash for a long time (surviving off money raised from investors and later from going public and selling stock), driving other book stores out of business. Once they had enough market share and less competition, they negotiated tougher deals with punishers for lower costs and raised their prices to be at least a little profitable (they still sell some things loss-leader and many things at cost).

I still love the interpretation of this event from the short “Troops” (parody of the old “Cops” TV show) youtu.be/5HO70-Rk3jE

Oh, I’m not saying voting is the only thing we can do. Not by a long shot. It’s just the most impactful.

I feel that.

But just to say it: Because it’s still the right thing to do, and if we didn’t, it would just be that much worse.

There’s no denying the best thing people can do for the planet isn’t recycling, etc - it’s voting.

I grew up a middle class kid in the rich suburbs. That’s so realistic and common it’s practically cliche.

The only realistic part is the rich parents not making the kid out when it really came down to it. You don’t hear about it more because Rich parents get their kids out of drug issues and DUIs like the rest of us run errands on a Tuesday night.

Backmarket will buy it from you and resell it. Just bought an iPhone 13 for my 16 year old. Lots of life left in “old” devices

Considering he’s dead, probably not much.
