People can of course like what they like and dislike what they dislike, but I think that a lot of people who rag on It's a Wonderful Life are barely paying attention to it. See also, to be sure: Our Town.

Truly insightful and lovely.

Can you feel it? A new aesthetic regime starting to break through the slop? This shit rocks

Yes. #vinyl #records

I read this in college and at first thought yeah yeah I get it but I wasn’t prepared for how chilling it was.

"this could have been slop, but it's not" is rapidly becoming a surefire signifier of premium-ness

Not now, haunted Victorian shoes

They’re not beating the ‘everyone’s 12’ allegations

Some of these redactions are almost like modern art

If we are banning cell phones for kids we need to be talking about banning chatbots for boomers www.persuasion.community/p/my-chatgpt...

They're calling it the American Canto of interviews

If my kids wanted nothing to do with me, my first thought would probably not be to publicly decry everything they think and feel.

incredible things happening at the nazi bar

Why is this tiny gesture so funny

If still need more evidence that this shit isn't trustworthy, I don't know what to tell you at this point. Get your information, and your fact-check of that information, from people.

ultimately, no one even grieved Charlie Kirk. he was just another thing for the worst people on earth to get outraged over. and when the outrage of real events wasn't enough, they invented new ones. not even his wife saw his death as anything other than an opportunity.
