One of the most satisfying moments in CARS (2006) is when Guido finally gets his chance in the pit. The movie spends so much time hyping up how fast he is that when the moment arrives, he somehow exceeds the hype.
We gotta start throwing rocks at Sony until they let this happen or something because the universe would feel so much more complete if Spider-Man was allowed to appear in the shows

I genuinely think a lot of millennials are reaching the same conclusion at the same time.
We grew up watching technology make life better every year. Cell phones. iPods. Smartphones. An app for everything. It felt like the future was arriving right in front of us, and we couldn’t wait for what came next.
Then somewhere along the way, it changed.
Everything became a subscription. Social media became algorithms. Every day feels like another once-in-a-lifetime event. The things that were supposed to save us time somehow ended up demanding more of our attention than ever.
We were sold convenience.
What we got was a world that feels faster, louder, more expensive, and somehow less human.
And that’s why so many people I know dream about a completely different life now. Not more technology. Not more optimization.
Just a quiet job, a flip phone, a small town, and a place where life feels real again.
Tried to recreate this in front of my fiancee but the citizen didn’t move so I just said “Watch this” and ran over someone in a wheelchair with the Batmobile

This is what we imagined the future of tech would look like, instead it’s just using up all our water supplies to generate a picture of spongebob with grills and a nike tech
The Billionaires don’t wake up at 5am. Teachers, nurses, bus drivers, etc., wake up at 5am. Billionaires wake up whenever they want because their wealth doesn’t come from their own labor. It comes from the labor of people who will never be billionaires.
