- Comment on AMC to Slash Movie Ticket Prices by 50% on Wednesdays 20 hours ago:
My problem is there are so few good movies coming out. I’m completely over the superhero crap. I don’t want to see the next random Star Wars thing. I don’t want a remake of a classic film I loved when I was younger.
There are some originals coming out, and that makes me happy, but I think the key is having good movies people actually want to see.
That said I’m interested in seeing Sinners, but I’ll probably wait to stream it, lol.

- Comment on What is anti-propaganda? 5 weeks ago:
This reminds me of the people that say they are anti-antifa.
"Anti-propaganda aims to undermine the effectiveness of propaganda by exposing its manipulative tactics, providing alternative perspectives, or offering factual information to counter biased claims.
I’d pick my battles and try to address the most harmful lines of thought first. Like anything medical for example. Deprogramming is a popular topic online so there are some resources out there.
Best of luck, it’ll be difficult until you find a foothold.

I couldn’t get into any of the LOTR movies. I like fantasy, I like adventure, I like fighting, but those films are boring as hell to me.
- Comment on Google’s Sergey Brin Says Engineers Should Work 60-Hour Weeks in Office to Build AI That Could Replace Them 2 months ago:
My CEO is starting to get ideas. I work at a startup, and recently they have been floating 60-80 hour work weeks. So far it has been an idle threat and is really just their hail Mary play, but big players doing this shit is really worrying as far as normalizing it.
I’m more productive than ever, and the punishment seems to be piling on even more work in order to chase those short term profits.

- Comment on The new Hulu Subscriber agreement just dropped - Don't like ads too bad. 3 months ago:
Hulu was my Netflix alternative. If they start showing me ads I’m done with them too. Hopefully this was added for live events, sports, etc, but I don’t know if they deserve the benefit of the doubt.
- Comment on No good excuse to still be on Xitter 3 months ago:
It’s usually there so people seek out the only fans / subscription content. Additionally for general exposure (ha!), likes and followers.

- Comment on I am in the US and its gotten very political but as pretty much a peon do I just tune the stuff out thinking its fear mongering? Or should I closely pay attention to it? 3 months ago:
The peons will be some of the most impacted, so it is good to stay in the loop. I wouldn’t obsess over what is going on, but a weekly digest of news is helpful.

Breitbart is highly biased and is trying to politicize this fire.
Singh said DOD resources work best when there is a plan in place to make sure they are used the most efficiently.
“You just don’t want to surge a bunch of capability and resources into a region without a full plan,” she said. “So that’s what we’re doing, and we’re working very closely with the state to make sure that we’re getting their needs met.”

Personally I’d find another job first. Once that is secure I’d plan my exit.
If your company does exit interviews I’d be frank and honest about your reasons for leaving. Consider having a quick outline prepared of what you want to tell them. I don’t burn bridges on my way out when possible, but if you can articulate your problems well it might help the next person.
