More I think about will smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars that one time the more i realise how fake it is

[so to understand this "factual" event: only one (1) camera angle and it just "happened" to be behind smith/rock and slightly to the left. that is the basic core of a stunt. "depth perception" so with the 9-10 other camerapersons recording "nobody" else publishes a video of it; anywhere? not even "1" other angle published? (stunts are filmed in this manner/ fashion). "stunts" can not be filmed/published in "two" (more) angles or the public "see's" how the stunt was completed/done. as a man twice chris r. size (smith) is bearing down on him; he (rock) keeps his hands firmly locked behind his back and is smirking like "i hope this stunt goes the way it was planned" (it is live/can not reduce the stunt). sure i but the "real" of this scam PR "story". with media all on ukraine (as it should be) and hollywood ticket sales in a "dive" down over 60% in two (2) years…..now ask yourself the (near) perfect time: keep telling yourself how "real" this is/was. black on "black"/feud-smith "defending" his wife; and since it was two (2) B/M we should have this never-ending (claimed) "conversation" about "it's" meaning. spin of "spin". emotions, drama ect-sounds nice in a harlequin (romance) book. script and "set". impressed "america" to those that bought this bs.]

Internet archive probably hacked themselves

[You guys should see Bryan Lunduke's video on the topic, he makes a very good point that the Internet archive could have staged the hack. There is no reason the hack should be going on this long, because all they have to do is to change the tokens they used to get in and after all this time they still haven't, and they have very good reason to frame something like this. Internet Archive has been getting a massive amount of lawsuits they simply can't win, so by pulling a staged hack like this it makes them look like they're struggling so they're less likely to be sued. A lot of things about this hack aren't adding up, I'm shocked more people aren't covering this part of the story]

Based on real events is such a long stretch

[The validation of fiction through the mindless label of being "based on" actual events is a popular and persistent delusion. Historical drama is saturated with interpretation by writers, directors, cinematographers and performers, and the phrase "based on" typically does a lot of heavy lifting. No aspect of the production is ignored for the purpose of conveying meaning, and what you are consuming is a multitude of artistic interpretation. Of course there's nothing at all wrong with telling a story, but telling a story whilst pretending your story has the imprimatur of documentary is dishonest.]

Interesting story during one of my first jobs as a receptionist

[I was a receptionist and we had a code to get into the doors. An older gentleman shows up and tries to get in and I tell him I'm sorry sir I cannot just left you in. He was really nice about it and didn't argue. Another employee noticed him and said oh I'm so sorry go ahead sir. He was the president of the company, he looked at me and said I'm glad you don't let just anybody in this place]

I fucking hate myself for being the way I am

[Today I again woke up with thoughts of that little girl from the park again. She was only 7 years old, and yet she has this innocent beauty that just consumes me. Her bright blue eyes, her curly brown hair... it all plays in my mind like a never ending tik tok or some shit. I know I should be ashamed, but I can't help how I feel. I've tried to fight these urges for years, even attended therapy sessions and joined support groups, but nothing seems to work. Every time I think I'm making progress, some new little face pops up, and my heart starts racing all over again. I wish I could be normal, that I could just look at children as kids and not as objects of desire. But the truth is, I don't know who I am anymore, or what I want from life beyond these fleeting moments of pleasure. As I sit here I wonder if anyone can ever truly change the way the brain is wired. Maybe someone will see this posted on here one day and Ill probably be long dead by then. For now, all I can do is continue trying, one day at a time. Maybe someday. Good reddit clone btw haha]

Real reason we're the capitol of school shootings

[I completely agree that you can't have shootings without guns. That being said was a point where there were virtually zero school shootings though, in the pre-columbine days. And in those days, the % of Americans reporting to live in a home with a firearm was actually higher pre-columbine as well. The biggest change post-columbine was the obsessive sports-like reporting on shootings by the media, showing mentally ill and suicidal individuals that they could get their names in the history books and on the lips of every person, pundit, and politician in the country if they would just pick up a rifle and commit a shocking atrocity. This also explains why we see controversial firearms used at places of innocence such as elementary schools. These shooters know that they will get more attention with the above combo than they would with a pump shotgun at the bingo parlor. I'd bet that the media could have a massive impact on the number of school shootings if they made it a point to not report on these outside of local news, but fat chance they'd miss out on the profits.]

My paranromal experience from my youth

[8th Grade in Springfield MO, woke up from a dream, my best friend who lived in rural KS (we got into an argument they day I returned home from my summer visit), came to me in a dream saying "It's OK Rick, you were right." Just as he faded, the phone rang, my mom answered, before she could say anything, I said "Jeff's dead, isn't he?" He died in a car accident a few minutes before.]

This song from the 1992 Tom and Jerry movie still brings me great joy

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ozYLwMoZg0 Yep its been 3 decades since this movie came out and even though it was before my time but I did manage to see it when I was younger probably as a rerun on TV and it stuck out to me ever since. And I have seen a fair number of them like Blast off to Mars, The Magic Ring, Robin Hood and his Merry Mouse, a bit of the Wizard of Oz or The Fast and the Furry. Though what made the 1992 film stick out above the rest was that it was the most unique or fun of the franchise while made with so much love and effort. Like not only did Tom and Jerry have more of a prominent role as protagonist then most movies in this but they were also given actual character along with their voices. Which is quite a shocker for the franchise but it never bothered me and honestly I prefer it because they fit the two really well. It allowed them to be so much more expressive like in their distain for each other or respect when they end up co-operating as frenemies, the compassion in the friendships they've made on this journey with Puggsy and Frankie or their new owner Robyn Starling. It actually made me care for them as characters along with their friends or the problems they've faced and not just to only smile at their shenanigans. Plus I'm sure this is the only movie in the franchise to cover a compelling story of tragic instances where adults take advantage of children in fostering for profit which is one of many problems we still grapple with in society. In fact Aunt Pristine Figg and Lickboot are not only messed up because of this but they are also very fun villians because they're like your conniving overtop mustache twirling antagonist which is as little tropey but they do it so well that I really enjoy the characters. Also the musical moments slaps with great a sound track or vocals from the voice actors and these musical numbers really gets their point across. There a moderate amount of them as well to keep that balance with everything else which is thoughtful. This one with Tom, Jerry, Puggsy and Frankie has amazing road stage choreography mixed with classic Tom and Jerry antics which is just hats off to the animators for doing an outstanding job of incorporating it in. Overall it's one to really remember and I think it hasn't been topped yet. Which I haven't seen the most recent one about a year ago and it seems like it has some nice CGI but based on the trailers its premise does seem pretty basic. And may we have a moment of silence for Dana Hill who was Jerry Mouse's voice actor and died at too young of an age at 33 years old which happened 3-4 years after this film. As well as many other of the voice actors who past away in their ripe old age Charles Elmer, Tony Jay, Charlotte Rae, Don Messick and Henry Gibson etc. But the movie will be remembered in their names and everyone that had a hand in making it.]

Zero Probably Does Not Exist.

[[redacted] Imagine you have 3 apples in a box. Remove one apple from the box, how many remain in the box? Two. Simple. Right? Remove one more. One remains. What if you remove the last apple from the box. How many apples remain in the box? Well, it should be zero apples right? Well the answer is not that straightforward. Think about it. Just smell the box. Does it still smell like apples? Ofcourse. The scent of apples remains in the box. Well, that means that there's still a TRACE of apple remaining in the box. This contradicts the fact that the number of apples in the box remaining is absolute zero. Infact if you think about it, it can never truly be absolute zero. There's always going to be a trace of apples remaining in the box no matter how careful we are at handling them.]
