What if I told you that if everyone uses a word the “wrong” way, in slightly different ways, it’s wrong?

Well… she made this video 6 months ago. I simply can’t make sense of it:

Those are not potential — it was a completely new forgettable season from just a few years ago.

But the original series is great — obviously it peters out a bit toward the end but first seven or eight seasons are straight gold.

Hope someone has chimed in with these jewels:

DREAM ON

DEAD LIKE ME

DEADWOOD

ROME

Y’all intense.

I’m using a VPN right now.

I think I’ve seen the character you’re describing. I think my take away from this thread is I need to deepen my understanding here and broaden my experience.

Totally get it. I forget which site led me to Lemmy but the first instance I joined was .ml and from there I moved to .world

I’m a non-tech fl0pper. So what’s wrong with .world?

Good lord… the is a typo in my critique!! Ugh.

I meant: It’s AN opinion.

And… that’s what I get for being smart alecky

When you post a comment and it gets downvotes: it AN opinion. Jeez.

Yeah… I always find it funny how when a cool group that’s to form… that extremely cool, everyone likes them, “ex” intelligence officer shows up… weird… isn’t it? I have seen this movie before.

It is hard to get those labs just right.

So… I have been friends in a writing group with a guy who voted for Bush2… and I have conscientiously tried to be human and humane to him because we go on hikes and movies together and he shares some of that co service ugliness in ways that help me understand the “other” better.

We had a blow out 2016… and we came back from it 2019… and now we know how not to have blowouts.

Recently I shared with him Gloria Anzadua’s HOW TO TAME A WILD TONGUE.

To my amazement he read it. We just had a discussion on empathy. No one died.

Everything about your response here is why Lemmy is my first click in the morning: sober, clear thinking. What I keep wondering is can the rich be held accountable for the damage that they have done? They participated in this fiasco-coronation… they funded it. My head still spins about the loss of integrity in our entire system.

Last night I started reading Against The Machine by Paul Kingsforth… I always wanted to read Decline and Fall of the West by Spengler but this guy actually did — and a lot of other great thinkers that are making this transition feel much less tragic for me and more natural… and reminding me that empires fall but individuals can thrive. Do thrive — with acts of decency.

No one really believes that the vacancies from the deaths won’t be filled by yet another asshole, do they?
