  • Yes. Theatre in the park events.

    Very similar, and an acceptable if lesser experience.

    Being truly outside is misleading and i reject it though. For the last 10 years i rarely spent time in a car while at the drivein. I upgraded from blanket to camping chairs to baggy mcbags to a portable hammock

    All set up under the stars. Really cant say enough good things about hammocks.

    That all being said ive been single since i was 29 so your results might vary.

    But i digress. I was truly outside anytime ive wanted to be for a long time. At the theatre that just closed was a grassy area between the front row and the screen. It was by far the best spot in the whole place to be outside laying on your back without any cars infront of you just the people next to you to disturb you, and if you avoided weekends and able to go on school nights you rarely even had that.

    The other good thing about it is you can bring your crying baby or your pets and if there is a problem you have your nice safe car to take care of them or at least prevent them from disturbing others. If you are a respectful.person which in my experience most people have been

    Edit: for clarity i do not have pets or children so those things are observations that were appreciated by me




  • And I’m making the point that failing to fund NASA is what has caused that and not replacing the shuttle system.

    It is not the fault of them if they have to go with hat in hand and beg just to keep going projects that are meaningful.

    Continue James Webb or scrap the ability to get james webb to space is essentially the a type of decision that had to be made.

    I think they made the right call and i want to put the blame in the right spot.

    Failing would be then deciding when they don’t have to that they didn’t want to build rockets anymore. At least that’s how i see it, and I’m not in those circles so it’s just like my opinion man
















  • Just watched the intro. I’m not really on board with the eugenics angle even after watching it. It’s more social darwinism than eugenics.

    Eugenicists as ive always thought of it is an intended or active pursuit of creating “better” humans(or whatever species).

    One factor I see being a difference between natural selection and unnatural selection. Unnatural selection being eugenics, and natural selection being what a result of an environment having an effect on the evolution of a species.

    The intro Primarily sets a path of one group having more children than the other group and i will concede it the intelligent couple having problems having kids misrepresents the rest of the movie while still giving the audience a vehicle to how the future they wanted to craft could happen. And it also is meant to be entertainment not just exposition.

    Would be very interested in an in depth response from Mike Judge and the rest of the filmakers. Would be an interesting use of AI/Deepfake to redo the intro if it actually wasnt intended to invoke a eugenic view of the future
