  • If you could give a dead actor one more movie, made at any point in their career, what would it be?

    Jump

  • Don't sleep on "A Knight's Tale"

  • Besides taxing wealth, which other options exist for reducing the wealth gap?

    Jump

  • A real, functional minimum wage across all jobs (close the loopholes around tips, piecemeal work, etc). Have it pegged to inflation so it stays a living wage.

  • Introverts of our era spend their time on their computers, but what did introverts do before? Like when literacy rates were lower (pre-1950s)? Or before the printing press?

    Jump

  • Spending the day working in a field, in a factory, etc you don't do a lot of socializing.

  • Are there video media (e.g TV shows, Movies, anime, video games, youtube videos, etc...) with a majority of the dialogue in an fictional language?

    Jump

  • Some of the DVD/Blu-ray versions of "GalaxyQuest" have the entire movie dubbed into the weird screeching alien language as a quirky bonus feature.

  • Guess What’s Not Outlawed in Peter Thiel and Don Jr.’s New Olympics?

    Jump

  • They're creating their own events, separate from the official Olympics

  • Microsoft actually cooked with the minecraft live

    Jump

  • For free.

    How many other games give you as much free "DLC" at Minecraft, year after year? And the game was lower cost to begin with.

    If this was any other game, every one of these updates would be $10 and/or the whole platform would have gone to an annual subscription a long time ago

  • Firefly, the shinest damn show in the 'Verse

    Jump

  • How Simon broke River out is pretty significantly different, that's the biggest one. A few other small things.

    And I refuse to consider "Serenity" canon for other obvious reasons.

  • Firefly, the shinest damn show in the 'Verse

    Jump

  • Between the Joss factor and the fact that the heroes are obviously based on "lost cause" confederates, who today are all racists hicks, it's hard to watch now. But it's soooo well made.

  • Firefly, the shinest damn show in the 'Verse

    Jump

  • How can it be canon to both the show and the movie? The movie wasn't in the same canon as the show.

  • ‘Maybe we should go after you’ Trump threatens ABC reporter asking about free speech

    Jump

  • The article never mentions Australia. The reporter is from the American ABC. Everything mentioned here, including Disney, the $15 million, the reporter... all American.

    No one here is talking about Australia except you

  • Ben & Jerry’s co-founder quits and accuses Unilever of ‘silencing’ social activism

    Jump

  • I don't think mega corporations have been resistant to social activism only in the last couple of decades. It's been true since at least the days of the robber barons of the early 20th century.

  • ‘Maybe we should go after you’ Trump threatens ABC reporter asking about free speech

    Jump

  • No, it's not a different ABC.

  • Ben & Jerry’s co-founder quits and accuses Unilever of ‘silencing’ social activism

    Jump

  • Shocked Pikachu face.

    He sold out to a massive corporate conglomerate and they don't support his social activism.

    Who could possibly have seen this coming.

  • ‘Maybe we should go after you’ Trump threatens ABC reporter asking about free speech

    Jump

  • ABC has been owned by Disney for decades. Are you confusing them with CBS who just went through a merger?

  • Music related YouTube channels to understand and appriciate music more

  • Hadn't seen Polyphonic before. Looks great. Subscribed!

  • You just described addiction as a mental condition. People can use anything as an unhealthy coping mechanism. It sounds like you've probably correctly identified it as an addiction. Now you can treat it like one.

  • People can become addicted to food, too, but clearly can't stop entirely. There are comparisons.

    That said, I'd say this is more like work addiction or shopping addiction where stopping completely for a time is possible while you detox, then see what feels right about reintroducing healthy versions in a safe way.

  • Find groups then. It's not exactly the same, but 12 step groups are an excellent, free option. Honestly a great addiction recovery plan often includes both individual and group work.
