I Love This Movie. A Smart Dark Satire That Still Works For Today.

THE ORVILLE 1.10 - Firestorm

Do you know what you want of social media? I am not so sure myself. I've met some cool people online when I was younger. Now that I'm older with not as much free time, do I expect the same? Not really, but I'm still here.

The Onion wins Alex Jones' Infowars in bankruptcy auction

The satirical newspaper plans to shutter Jones’ InfoWars and rebuild the website featuring well-known internet humor writers and content cre

This is significant. The Onion, who hands down has been one of the best satires available making poignant articles even with humor bought out one of the worst propaganda machines out there. If you really don't know who Alex Jones is, he's the evil guy who tormented the families who lost little kids when they were murdered in their school in 2012. This vile human kept accusing these families of being actors and faking the whole thing to the extent that people who listened to his show, purposefully harassed these families. Even just thinking about this again has me sobbing.

Every time there is another mass shooting, The Onion also posts their now infamous article 'No Way to Prevent This,' Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens.

This guy and his "media empire" deserves to be torn apart. But it's not the end goal. It's just another battle against misinformation and violence in this country. But it's a win.

Anyone else find this time of year difficult? Is it wrong to say I feel a little bit of anxiety thinking about the next year? I want to be excited and hopeful, but I feel a little bit scarred by the past few years. Things have been okay, really. It just feels like impending doom sometimes. The news doesn't help.

I watched the Netflix Wednesday show and was a bit disappointed. Spoilers ahead.

The show had potential. Started pretty strong with aesthetic and character variety. By the middle to end, the characters were a bit cheapened. Unfortunately the main character began to suffer the Bella Swan (Twilight) effect. Meaning: Bella could do absolutely whatever and still have friends wanting to still be her friend despite ignoring them completely for her own desires.

Wednesday just kept attracting all these friends that she never seemed to reciprocate. It's not exactly the same because at least a few of her friends actually tell her off for being a dick, but it still falls short. Specifically, for the character that goes to jail wrongfully accused of murder but then completely forgives her and buys her a phone at the end of the series.

If the show runners wanted to depict a flawed Wednesday, then at least follow through on the repercussions of those flaws on the people around her. She never actually apologizes for her actions either and second season or not, they should've backed that up with the secondary characters not always accepting her shit. As an attempt of character growth, it just doesn't happen and she ends up being quite flat.

The more I thought about the actions of the supporting characters in dealing with Wednesday, the more disappointing the story became in retrospective. The problem I see as this show is pretty popular, there are most definitely people out there inspired by this character and tend to mimic traits.

I just want to make sure that being goth does not mean be a dick.

Me: If witches travel on brooms, what do wizards travel on? Nick: On witches.

Soul Train was such a bad ass show. That's the only other show I'd watch after cartoons were over on Saturday.
