@lanodan@0xabad1dea “Which of these three currencies - the rial, the drachma, and the bottlecap - is worth the most?” “Answer: ‘drachma’, both because it has the most letters, and because it has the most consonants.”
For a movie that could lean into the horror of the invasive nature of the protagonist’s power, it’s an interesting tack to have people act kinda…nonchalantly? Or, I dunno, like “huh, guess you can see me naked; oh well, not like I have any reason to be ashamed”. #Monsterdon

@thekitmalone It’s also a great (terrible) gateway into reactionary conspiracy theories.
A vanishingly small group whose practices are unknown or weird, must propagate themselves by “devouring” children, will hide in plain sight and pretend to be weak while really wielding so much power that they can direct the movements of nations?
Seriously, how thin is the line between transphobic conspiracies and antisemitic ones? And if you finally fall for one, it’s easier to keep falling.

@hacks4pancakes@morebento Where they’re forced to grow crops, so…literally plantations. His plan to deal with depression is to send people to plantations.
I don’t know what I’m doing, either.I do a fair amount of boosting which, for me, means “this post has value”, so not necessarily that I agree with it.Following is open, no worries if you dip in and dip out. I tend to wait to follow until I’ve interacted with you a bit first.
