Logos and Liberation: The Path of Kenosis

Is this a good time to mention that Cheesecake Factory looks like that because the founders are from a small sect of white Sufis

Tweet about YIMBYism and be inundated with racists and “progressives” that believe capitalist economics work just for housing and are little Reagan’s when it comes to building.

If tenants are organizing against their own displacement and the privatization of their public housing it is the job of a 'socialist' organization to support them... not to tell them that they are wrong to fight because *insert bullshit talking points*...

I watched it recently and feel like it might be in "so bad it's good" territory because it clearly really believes in itself while making some highly questionable choices. What makes me hesitant about that though is its production value is too high to pass as schlock.

Watched Megalopolis last night. As a film I’m unsure what I think of it yet. As a piece of social commentary it’s woefully out of touch.

The response to this is the maddest I’ve ever seen Twitter leftists get about Trump. Damn, I should’ve tweeted this BEFORE the election.

Does it count if the whole movie is about a dream within a dream?

Are there any ‘it was all a dream’ endings that are genuinely well-written and that people actually enjoy?

Described Trump as the Last Boomer at the pub last week, and it does feel like that. That he’s a human instantiation of the suspicion many of us non-boomers have that the boomers want their demographic exit to be exactly coterminous with the end of the world.

Part of the reason this is the case is because racial minorities have strong in-group preferences politically. If Wiener was Chinese or Hispanic, you'd see more support.

Of all the criticism you can make of the Beatles, calling them "formulaic" just shows you know nothing about them.

*deep inhale* Guys, it’s The Beatles. Formulaic music that got hyped into genius status by a perfect storm of timing and savvy media, not actual skill. Expert exploitation of trends already pioneered by others. They’re a marketing phenomenon that got called the greatest because they sold a lot of records to herd-mentality teenagers, not because the music itself was ever the most advanced, demanding, or enduring rock ever made.
