Due to events in my life, I had to go through anger management courses and therapy. When they were finished I continued Stoicism-inspired meditation. Anger almost disappeared completely from my life.

One thing I noticed only later is how I had almost abandoned all social media platforms in the meantime.

That and at some point people that I got to know primarily through social media interaction voiced the fact that my reputation in their eyes grew, although never having been necessarily angry with them.

Is there any way to find information about the company or “director” of the trailer? It is really an amazing work of video and audio editing.

Are you lost? Come with me, I will help you find your mommy.

Except for it being called Blade Runner and not striking any resemblance to the original.

If it came out as it’s own thing I would have called it a good movie, although a bit bland and with poorly written characters, but as a sequel to Blade Runner, no way.

And The Hobbit (respect to Del Toro for giving up before it was too late). And Justice League (even if, after Dawn of the Dead and 300, Snyder never did a good one again).

BR2049 is shit. A mix of uninspired stuff, nice concept art and fan service, with a bad CGI Rachel.

I love Villeneuve’s work elsewhere, but there he really fucked up.

Last time I checked Assange was never a journalist. I think it is terrible what happened to him and I hope I can keep expecting that only from China, Russia, the USA and a few others, but this is false information and actually it explains the whole reason why the USA could very easily apply the Espionage Act in such a way.

As an Italian, thank you! This is the worst of the worst our country has to offer to the world and having a glorifying biopic about it is degrading to all of us.

My “politics” is because I don’t think that any politically relevant (especially for the rest of the world) decision in the US is taken in or by the appointed institutions. And recent events, including the news we are commenting on here, are confirmation of this.

I’ll let you onto a little secret about Europeans: we don’t don’t give half a shit about the US and their “politics”.

You may well argue that we have your bases in our territory, NATO and your social networks influencing our lives, but I see that as our internal problem of still having to grow a proper pair, rather than an interesting consequence of whatever medieval situation you’re brewing in there.

And you wish you were in a cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in a boring one.

I think this could have been the normal evolution of the social network under anyone else than Musk. I repeat, it has always been built this way, for broadcasting. And I am sorry to fire on the Red Cross, but Mastodon is just the same: the only reason it is somewhat better than what Twitter was is that it is novel and barely populated and therefore elicits what in Italy we call mountain path courtesy.

I don’t really see a difference in Twitter pre- and post-Musk. It is literally built for this, for broadcasting with minimal discussion afterwards. I left Twitter a bit before Musk got it because I realized Reddit was better for discussing and obtaining informed opinions. And now I left Reddit.

You guessed it, I am not American.

Nor I have time to spend following the domestic politics of a country that was decadent when it was founded by terrorists (according to its own Constitution).

I am surprised still because this is 2023 and you are behaving literally medieval de facto instituting a new kind of feudalism gibing power to these people.

What’s surprising is that the US does nothing about it

Bad publicity is bad for business. And that’s all the US really cares about.

Let’s look at the bright side: at least it is obvious even to the US that being this close to Israel at the moment is something that is better done under the table.

End how?

That’s what an AI would say!

So I am a nerd and being downvoted for pointing this obvious mistake?

It is like in the 2nd chapter of the fairytale the Israelis and all the others in the region based all their lore on. And it is relevant to the article since in it it’s stated that there were Palestinian flags brought by the protesters.

Journalist really need to acquire the knowledge of Arabs being also a Semitic population. The exclusive use of the Semitic label for Israel and the Jews in general is just one more disgrace in this whole story.
