And this is why we're facing extinction

IMHO this is a very good example of filmmaking and storytelling.

Pennyworth - explores the early life of Alfred, the Wayne family butler. Tics all my boxes, & great performances across the cast. Binged thru season 1, now onto season 2.

Just started watching this last night (s1e1). Enjoyed it, and will continue.

I love this.  Low-key hate the thumbnail, but I do appreciate his judgemental tone towards zoomers more recent peoples trying to take ownership of the term.

[HiWire]

I don't think he's wrong.

Linkbaity title and thumbnail, obviously, and it's a broad generalization - there is real indie music out there - we post it here all the time, but discussing it as a commercial phenomenon, yes, the music industry sold "indie sound" as a category for decades.

Due to my evidently sheltered schooling, I’m familiar with very little of this.  Could someone break it down for me?

Still, goddamn he's silly and dangerous.

He is absolutely dangerous. He's talking to the Russians and has too much military knowledge of Ukraine's details.

But if you forget about truth, facts, and reality, it's an amazing tower of misinformation, no?

Sure, why not?  It's just an entry level version of Logic (or so I've been told by those in the industry).

I've only watched a few episodes, but it's looking like I will keep watching this one...
