    having a debate with a friend-

    so Dredd is a great action movie and even though its main character is a literal cop chud fantasy, a main theme of the movie is that the Judges of the megacity are a deeply flawed and fucked up org full of cold blooded murderers and opportunists, and dredd himself is only a partial exception. the villains are very clearly shown to be psychopaths who are AT LEAST as bad as the judges, and the collateral damage to civilians from doing a war in a compact apartment complex is a central focus of the movie. my q is, is Dredd copaganda in the sense we generally use that term? it is, by definition of having a super-cop as its protagonist, but imo there's more artistic value to it than, say, your average network cop drama

    i've been playing a ton of Risk of Rain 2 since gearbox fixed it, and paying way more attention to the music in the game. it's absolutely sublime, Chris Christodoulou's soundtrack is frighteningly perfect for the game and i hope to christ he isn't a fascist b/c the music is perfection and i need someone to admire

    i remember reading here about an alternative theory of evolution that was pretty compelling, where they state that organisms evolve rapidly over a very short time inbetween incredibly long periods of stagnation, and how thats contrary too the bourgeois narrative of slow gradual change (ie reformism). if someone could link that author I'd appreciate it shy

    my only real issue with it is the whiplash editing, like every episode ends so goddamn abruptly and so do a lot of scenes. its like they're just trying to get through the show as quickly as possible, like they're annoyed they even have to do it. but then some scenes go on for way too long and are too boring like wtf ohnoes

    i've played A LOT of cod zombies and imo the narrative in that specific gamemode is far better than the blind military worship of the campaign and MP. especially in the newer games since the Nazi party member is long dead and so are the "OG squad" who accepted and even liked him after their Marvel-ass time travel adventures.

    point is, zombies is generally pretty good, but if they bring back the nazi then PIGPOOPBALLS

    i just watched Furiosa, and there's clearly a lot of practical stuff in it, just not at the same level as Fury Road. in certain scenes the CGI is distractingly obvious, but comparing it to disney's corporate slop is insulting to the movie imo

    recently the glue bonding it to one of my teeth came loose and then fell off entirely and now another spot of bonding is starting to break down. i don't have the money to go and get it removed by an orthodontist and i'd rather not wait however long for the rest of the bonds to fail. is there a safe and effective way to completely take it off at home? do I just have to slowly work the glue with my fingernail or something until it eventually comes off?

    i don't care at all for horror games, and i never played phasmophobia which everyone says is similar to this game, but playing [Lethal Company](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1966720/Lethal_Company/) with friends is a blast. once you learn the game you can easily deal with most of the monsters and they become less scary, but the grainy gloomy aesthetic + huge replayability + cooperative focus really makes it special. and it only just released in early access and has already gotten a nice content update ![nicholson-yes](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/43d4cab3-485e-47b0-a691-015c0068857f.png "emoji nicholson-yes") best moment for me so far was going to an eclipsed planet, watching my two comrades walk out the door of the ship, one of them says "okay so we just need to be quic-" and then they both simultaneously got eaten by a giant sandworm and i immediately left the planet
