Unfortunately, they probably have seen outside exactly how you mean it, they’re probably dealing with similar issues, and like you, they’re just at work, going through the motions, trying to get through the day, hoping to have a slice of it left over for themselves at the end.

That’s the most insidious part of it, it affects so many of us that none of us has the time, patience, or effort to give others anymore.

I’m just glad that millennials and Gen Z are educated enough to be killing off organized religion.

A big component of earlier generations accepting how bad things are is expecting them to get better in the afterlife.

“It will be fine as long as I’m forgiven of my sins and go to Heaven! Why would I worry about Earth?”

Thank fucking goodness there’s enough education for people to see through that absolute horseshit, a lie fed to the working populace to keep them compliant until the day they die.

(To be clear, nothing against general spirituality. Mostly issues with organized religion and promising eternal life after death, which not all of them do.)

The problem is it is not a generational issue. It’s a class issue. Rich millennials, and Gen Z will be no better than the rich Boomers. They will die believing they are just more special than everyone else and that is why they deserve so much more.

Generations won’t change shit about who is in charge, sadly.

Look I was alive and paying attention when carbon dioxide passed a threshold that is impossible to go back to. (Over 400ppm in the atmosphere.)

That was ten years ago.

Every climate scientist on the planet predicts society will collapse in the face of climate change.

But sure, keep your head buried in the sand by calling other people “doomers” because you can’t be fucked to look up publicly available scientific research.

I hope you are young so you get to see exactly how bad it gets and to question if maybe you were a dumb fuck to ignore it.

Because yes. Yes you were.

Interesting stuff! I’d say the main difference is children are able to be controlled, while we’re dealing with adults who are cunning and willing to stop at nothing to change the system to benefit them and only them. In other words, their Extinction Bursts are capable of being effective, and Just Doing It Harder may work. Especially when “doing it harder” is cheating the system.

Mountain Goats - The Bad Doctor

Kids in the Hall - Bad Doctor

These both came to mind and I couldn’t choose which to post, so have both.

Reminds me of the episode of Joe Pera Talks with You where he talks with the guy who pours liquids professionally for television commercials.

Indeed, so sad when it was cancelled. At least we still have Joe! And his new comedy special is free on Youtube.

Also, Joe is connected to so many cool people (many of them also named Joe) like Joe Bennett, who drew the art for Joe’s bathroom book.

Joe Bennett is one of two creators of Scavenger’s Reign, which I am about halfway through the currently released episodes and it is so good and the art is so amazing. Really reminiscent of the art of Moebius. Nice to see some high quality animation that isn’t in faux-anime style. The original animation that inspired it is also on YouTube and is a little closer to Joe Bennett’s natural style, as seen in Joe Pera’s bathroom book.

That’s too damn thick to be real maple syrup.

Except this literally happened to old single season anime FLCL which started getting new seasons fifteen years later.

Don’t get my fucking hopes up! If only they would bring this back.

At least Matthew Holness had cameos in Toast of London and Toast of Tinseltown.

I’m not sure, although I’m fairly sure it’s from a parody, and not the real film. So you’re on the right track!

To be fair, arguably that is more of a sanitary issue that you don’t want your poo poo particles spreading all over your house each time you flush.

I live in the US, but there’s a lot of media I’d like to watch that isn’t available in the US. Piracy is literally my only option, because I’m not given legal ways to consume that content.

Not all VPNs are equal. Also, even with a good VPN, you still can have your real area leaking via your Real Time Clock.

Honestly, just pirating is a lot fucking easier than paying for attempts at multiple VPNs just to see if I can make an account at the BBC and watch iPlayer. I’ve failed at that more times than I’ve succeeded.

Finally, VPNs are only legal in the sense that the only thing the BBC can do is… deny you access to their content. Similar to Youtube and Ad Blockers. It’s their content, they own it, and it’s fair game for them to try to make people pay for it. Since the BBC is publicly funded, that means me making a BBC account to watch iPlayer via a VPN is probably breaking their “Terms of Service” which means they are legally allowed to remove my account at any time. Because I am effectively using the BBC without paying for it if I use a VPN.

It’s legal, but it’s still a TOS violation which can get you banned by a lot of services.
