Cats are constantly plotting how to take out their owners. Don’t worry, they are to lazy to ever attempt it.

I need coffee I spent a good minute wondering why the fact the repairman was a Pole mattered.

Kaworu is the only Eva character worth your time anyhow.

I didn’t expect to see regular Stormy!

But Hamas is. “From the River to the Sea” is about eliminating Israel. You can’t support Hamas without being anti-Israel because it is in their own laws that Israel cannot exist. Don’t get me wrong I don’t support what is happening to Palestine, but Palestine “winning” isn’t a solution either so long as Hamas is in power.

BBQ sauce. It’s like ketchup but better.

We’re just a small part of the world.

Pretty sure that guy is a JoJo’s villain.

Old phrase, “There’s gold in them there hills”. It was an old quote from idk where, but it got re-quoted plenty of times. Probably most famously in Loony-Toons,

Missionary work ahead.

I seemed to pass as straight to cis gendered people, but like you said they are looking for that macho man vibe and despite my trying they could always see through it. Only gay and bi people ever showed signs of or did question it. I think much of what makes people uncomfortable about LGBTQ+ is because they see things that they see in themselves they don’t like. Society forces people to conform when things are far from black and white.

For example, despite saying that I am bi I have a strong preference towards women. I only crushed hard on a guy once, but never mentioned a word of it and was just best friends with him until we went our separate ways, due to the aforementioned homophobia around us. I wonder now, at this point, how different my life would have been if society was more open. I strongly suspect he wasn’t strictly het either as his wife is pan as well among other things.

The good ones are usually very misguided people, oblivious to what they are really up to in my experience.

I recently came to accept that I am bi. I was puzzled how most of my life I only ever had luck with bi/pan women as I had refused to acknowledge that side of me due to rampant homophobia where I grew up. Something about us just repels cis women in my experience. My wife even had gay friends insisting she was a smokescreen and that I was forcing myself to be with her. Part of my trauma growing up was hearing people have the stereotype that bi people are just horny sluts and that it wasn’t just how they were born.

There seems to be a stigma against bi men in general just as bad as gay men in my experience (I’ve even heard tales of gay men hating bi men). Any straight woman I dated, or tried to, always seemed to be repulsed by me. My guess is that it is in the body language, since her gay friends insisted I was too. Society as a whole is getting better at accepting people but it is still fucked.

Ideally sure, but we are dealing with capitalism. In a high populated area people will want to find a way to profit over every inch.

Look at what people in NYC and north east NJ call suburban, then look at what someone in upstate NY calls suburban. Density is very different. Look at it as a scale. Dense Urban, Urban, light urban, dense suburban, suburban, etc. I am specifically pointing at places like in NJ where it would more likely be turned into a mall than a park.

Devil’s advocate, in a dense suburban setting it keeps that land from being paved over and turned into a commercial zone. But when it is in a rural setting, absolutely.

Exactly, and to add to it, you can’t know the director’s vision or opinion on how the framing should be adjusted. AI can make images easily but it won’t understand subtext and context that was intended. No time soon at least.
