A Hell portal? So unlimited free heat energy? Gotham could be generating free power for everyone just off steam turbines. What kind of mismanaged bullshit city is this?

People are just tired of Batman’s sanctimonious bullshit. Fucking invest your billions in the city and get all the other wealthy fucks to do the same. Turn Gotham into a utopia of opportunity and learning. Create a period of Renaissance. You have thousands of millions of dollars.
Crime is a function of economic disparity, not intrinsic human nature.

If you can’t go anywhere, another option is jumping rope. 10 minutes of jumping rope is about equivalent to jogging for 30 min.

The key phrase here is “low effort.” These movies generally take a semi-decent premise and then run it into the ground faster than a nepobaby’s inherited business. That’s why they all end up as schlock and give the genre a bad name.

- Comment on According to the Wall Street Journal, "Wicked" Parts One and Two cost $320 million ($160 million per film). Both parts were shot back-to-back. 4 days ago:
Wicked was published in 1995. Making this movie might have made sense up to 2009, but now? It’s a sentimental cash-grab. Same reason they’re making Gladiator 2.

- Comment on How Self-Driving Cars will Destroy Cities (and what to do about it) 1 week ago:
You’re just making an argument for better regulations and testing. Let’s start with elderly drivers, who are no longer physically and mentally capable of the maneuvering required to operate a vehicle at speed. Anyone over 65 should have to retest on a regular schedule. And when they fail, they lose their car too.
And all of this is an argument for effective and reliable PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.

Listen I hate to pile on here, but your responses are lacking proactive elements that create interesting dialogue. And that can come across as very dull indeed.
Don’t sweat it though. Just consider adding more details without being asked. Adding 2-3 extra, unprompted tidbits in the first couple sentences when speaking to someone might be all you need to escape your conversational doldrums.

- Comment on Haters will say it’s fake 1 week ago:
I’ve wrestled with this quite a bit. And as someone who has only ever donated to one individual’s political campaigns, I still think Bernie has to go too. It’s not that he’s wrong, it’s that he’s just too old to be doing work. The optics are awful.
The larger issue is that the Dem party has been nipping buds before they can even stretch for the sun, for decades. So any real progressive candidates will need to be drawn in from the outside. Which also means the Dem party itself needs to be dismantled from the top, and reconstructed to be effective in the 21st century. Late 1900s strategies are all the Dems have been offering, while losing again and again and again. Bernie has been an Independent since 1978. And that’s largely a function of Vermont. So the question is, how can we affect the political landscape such that living fossils understand they’re no longer wanted, when their entire careers are predicated on egoism insisting that theirs are the necessary hands on the tiller?
So, I’m not saying throw the wizened baby out with the bathwater, but asking an 83 year old man to serve another 6 years is not fair to anyone. And despite his fantastic vigor, it’s a recipe for diminishing returns.

Well Controlled Opposition is a lucrative field, friend. You just won’t find it on Indeed.
- Comment on "The American experiment endures," Biden said. "We're going to be OK." 2 weeks ago:
The beginning and end of Leadership is accountability. The Dems refuse to accept their part in this loss.
The President and Vice President have zero outward indications that this is personally painful to them, at all. If anything, they seem relieved to be passing the potato. If they are so out of touch, or so insulated from the pernicious outcomes of their doleful stewardship of this country, then WHY should voters place their trust in that party again, considering it’s been helmed and staffed by the same obstinate members for decades?
I don’t see Leadership, I see a kind of craven capitulation, at a time when America most need its leaders to have fire in their bellies, and compassion in their eyes.

“I know people are still hurting, but things are changing rapidly. Together we’ve changed America for the better. Now we have 74 days to finish the term, our term. Let’s make every day count.”
Jesus fucking Christmas. Nothing will penetrate his perfect shield of fantasy.
