Off Topic / Netflix does an epic creep moment
« on: August 21, 2020, 10:12:51 PM »
I don’t know what to say about this that hasn’t already been said, other than that it’s Tik Tok: The Movie and “because it’s from France” and “Sundance said yippee” don’t give it a pass in my mind.

Off Topic / Which are worse: Theater Kids or Band Kids?
« on: August 20, 2020, 01:18:14 PM »
I think theater kids are way worse.
They’re either projecting their insecurities on to you 24/7 or extremely full of themselves.
edit: this thread is for fun and stereotypes are a thing

easy to get bored unless you're one of those artsy types.

That’s what I’ve heard from all my friends. I’m kind of a film buff so I thoroughly loved it, but I can tell if that’s not really what the viewer is interested in, it could get pretty mundane

Off Topic / Lucifer is a terrible show
« on: August 06, 2020, 09:43:16 PM »
I started watching it and it has this extremely awesome premise

However, I couldn’t get past the first 20 mins. because:
-Camera work is terrible

-Editing is worse than Bohemian Rhapsody (which is saying something)

-The lead actor has a ridiculously horrible British accent (worse than Benedict Cumberbatches American accent)

-It’s presented in the least interesting way possible

However, I watched the first episode of a show with a similar premise called “The Devil Is a Part Timer” and that was pretty fun

A graph made to look misleading is a graph made to look misleading.
There are no married bachelors.
This is really simple. I understand what the graph is saying, and how it is put together. I think data should stand on its own, not on the pedestal of things that force narratives onto the information.
In the case of the big orange bar graph, the data does stand on its own. However, none of you guys I assume are on the left will admit that the graph is leading viewers to draw the conclusions they want because you agree with the narrative.
Whether or not the information is true is irrelevant.

Chokeholds are pretty common for people who are resisting arrest, whether they should be is another question. Pretty much everyone is in agreement that the cops could have handled the situation better.

A person resisting arrest doesn’t justify choking them to death, but there were many many times in the whole situation that Floyd could have just done what they said and the outcome *would have been different*. It’s probably not that hard to get out of your car, communicate with other human beings, etc.

Once again for the slow people, I think that resisting arrest the way that Floyd did didn’t warrant killing someone, and they got fired. Good.

But also, Floyd wasn’t a complete angel who did absolutely nothing wrong, didn’t resist arrest, and got martyred purely for being a sweet, innocent black man minding his own business like so many others who are slaughtered every day at the hands of tyrannical mentally deranged overlords.

hows that
Take the orange bar graph for example:
-Exactly 0 labels on the Y axis
-The implication that all of the listed racial groups commit crimes that result in incarceration at the same rate
-Placing the data from smallest to largest instead of alphabetical - or by the estimated total of people in that racial group, or by any other means that make sense and that aren’t just “hurr durr me make orange bar look taller”

My favorite part is that the charts are literally made to look misleading
