They could be right in this case honestly, because there is probably a minuscule fraction of the preppers, large families, and pre-planners that shop at Costco that wouldn't just use some other type of birth control.

Post-conception birth control in general I cannot see being someone's primary method.

It still sucks, but I buy this much more than I buy that Colbert was cancelled for purely financial reasons.

feeling something at the extream makes it pretty fucking good Art.

Uh, no. A good movie should make you feel something at least close to an intended emotion set, or at least get you thinking about its content.

I'm gonna venture a guess that nobody intended for the reaction to the movie to be someone having trouble thinking about how to write a 0.5 star review for it and then quit and tell other people not to waste their time.

The people watching yet another rehash of war of the worlds are not going to be (for the most part) art snobs. When the audience that would bother watching this watch it and say it sucks, I fucking believe them.

I haven't wasted my time because I heed warnings rather than touching hot stoves.

Oh it mattered, it became a chuckle line used in memes that I couldn't enjoy even at the time because I knew that his stupid, racist bullshit would not be interpreted in a normal way by most of the electorate.

You need strong constitutions to protect from this shit, because people will vote for their own death when they are scared.

Constitutions without a mechanism of enforcement are just a piece of paper. Much of what is occurring in the United States right now is absurdly unconstitutional, but it doesn't matter because the institutions -- that are full of living, breathing humans -- all ignore it.

Tyrants are also usually to blame for the asylum seekers in small boats. The irony knifes me. They're often seeking asylum because they're fleeing a tyrant, and the response of the countries they try to find safe harbor in is to turn themselves into the very type of tyranny they were fleeing.

I'm still waiting for people to realise that we live in corporate dictatorships with the illusion of democracy; you can vote for whoever you want, but the oligarch-financed candidates are statistically guaranteed to win a majority 90+% of the time, coz capitalism.

People having this realization and solidarity amongst the common folk are the only way to we have a hope of fighting this pile of shit back.

It's still nowhere near a guarantee of a win, and it's made monumentally more difficult by the oligarchs plotting to divide us up (using the politicians and social media platforms they own) but it's the only chance we have.

The billionaires who are scapegoating gays and minorities just like they almost always do.

Sure, exactly what Bernie was doing. So like, we agree then that Bernie was correct to endorse Harris even if she became kind of a shit sandwich along the way.

Unlike this guy, who I guess would rather have Bernie tell his supporters to vote for Trump? Not endorse? It's unclear because their position is so mindless, which is why I replied what I did.

Awesome song, was just thinking how it makes a really great test for new audio equipment (especially for the mid-bass / bass part of the system).
