  • Cats (2019). The story is good, the music is good, the casting is good. People made it a huge meme cause of the CGI, but even that is pretty well done. It has a beautiful story, and if you’re a pet lover like me, it really makes you emotional. Its also fucking insane. The entire time you watch it, you just go “people spent years of their life and millions to make this”. Its a very surreal experience. I’ve also haven’t met a person who has watched the movie and didn’t like it.

    To be fair, I haven’t met anyone who has watched the movie


  • Some people with autism annunciate words differently. It’s not being pronounced (for the most part) differently, it’s sorta like an accent. Of course this isn’t the case for all autistic folk, considering a big part of the condition is ‘masking’, so mimicking even speech patterns is almost engraved in our brains. But for some who don’t care for masking, or are less adept at it, they tend to have a variety of unique speech patterns.

    For myself, I’m a victim of misplaced rising or sinking tones. I go up or done on words or parts of the sentence that just doesn’t make sense. I also pause where people don’t normally.

    As for actual words, my annunciation is just terrible. I over annunciate some syllables, and slur or combine others.

    Also I say can’t like c + ain’t. Cain’t.








  • Thats a bit of a glass heart take. I, personally, don’t think animals should suffer before they’re slaughtered. They should live happy lives up until then. But we’re predators just like any other carnivore.

    The only difference is that we have stronger emotions and the ability to consider the consequences of our actions as well as empathy for other beings.

    But if you like meat, you’re not being a baby. If anything it’s the opposite. You care less about the animals than the meat it comes from. And I don’t think that’s wrong. That’s just evolution.

    We’re such strong predators, that the majority of humans will never even kill their prey. We cage animals and slaughter them to feed our masses. And as long as we do that ethically (which we’re not. I’ll admit that), I don’t think it’s a bad thing, it’s nature.

    You wouldn’t deny a lion it’s prey, so why berate fellow humans for the same thing? Instead the focus should be on ethical and sustainable ranching and farming.

    I wouldnt mind the first kind if they didnt have a playbook to defute every single one of your points in a manipulative way. I really don’t give a shit what you support as long as it doesn’t directly involve hate or oppression, and as long as you don’t try to shove it down others throats or try to insult people with opposing views every chance you get.

    I imagine a lot of people over im hexbear are chill. I hope so at least. However, every encounter ive had with them, feels like the conservatives over on reddit. They try to ‘own’ you with loaded talking points, and bad faith arguements.

    Oppressive nations tend to have powerful armies.

    Nobody is defuting that the USSR fought off the Nazis and had the biggest hand in their destruction.

    But just because they fought a great evil, doesnt mean they were " the good guys". It just means they fought a great evil.
