I didn’t feel like it got lost because of it, especially since it was all still in service of that message. Feminism isn’t just about women either, and isn’t the conclusion of his arc showing that he is kenough and doesn’t need to to take the patriarchal male role?

Saw it yesterday and I really liked it. I think some people are kind of exaggerating how groundbreaking and subversive the feminism in it is, while it strikes me as fairly standard liberal feminism, but I think it was executed about as well as it could have been and I only cringed one or two times. Besides that it was consistently funny, occasionally moving, the plot was compelling enough, and it was all round a fun time. Also bonus points for having a Charli XCX song over a car chase.

I guess probably my biggest gripe would just be that the capitalism aspect of things was approached in a really shallow manner (maybe or maybe not Mattel’s influence going on there idk), such that tbh I almost would have preferred it not touched at all, but this didn’t hugely affect my enjoyment of the movie either because I wasn’t expecting it to really go deep into that.

very secure in their masculinity

Are they?

The reason as to why here relative to elsewhere is probably because people here tend to be more into free software and privacy and things like that, and caring about those things tends to have an anti-corporate aspect, because of the way corporations tend to act, and aligns pretty well with wider anticapitalist beliefs

Also the devs and pre-Reddit influx population are anticapitalist so that kind of helps influence the trajectory a bit

Evil GUI bloat

And when you rmdir it’s a foldirectomy

Arch is bloat, I use Linux from scratch (by the way)

What does this have to do with being biologically male?

Didn’t know people thought this. Anyway they’re definitely missing out because wild strawberries are great, much better than other strawberries imo

Swap your car or plane ride for a bus or train

Kinda hard to do when there’s nowhere near enough investment in public transit

Calling to individual action to solve climate change is literally the status quo

If you use any subs related to eating disorders you’ll probably get diet stuff as well

Yeah, my reddit comment numbers had already been significantly declining by the time all this API stuff came around, even getting as low as a few a month

Speaking of Spotify, I wonder how long it will be before they gut their desktop app for free users. It just feels too functional to be long for this world, especially given how unusable the app is if you don’t have premium.
