@Duderichy Top law schools are full to the brim with low agency people. The vast majority of graduates become corporate lawyers at white shoe law firms where the REQUIREMENT is to be high IQ/low agency & execute other people's bidding without asking questions

[🍊 bunny 💙💛🍉 @fruitybnuuy]

wait until the english speakers find out about our other iconic phrases like
"dressed like a rat for the grand sewer opening"
"free is a fair price"
"for free even vinegar is sweet"
"looks like shit, and tastes even better"
"place where dogs bark with their asses"

@jacquemusx The first outfit is great, the second outfit is ugly but unfortunately on trend (that's for all of us to collectively reflect on & do better), third outfit is however 'milenial wearing business casual to the club' attire so neither trendy nor timeless imo

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@ejtmanley @Darren_Mooney a) that is the claim
b) it isn't becoming the norm
c) we have a lot more volume of media being produced today, so it's easy to point to a small cluster of the total volume and make generalizations
d) if you want to watch new original movies in the present day, there are tons

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@ejtmanley @Darren_Mooney Yes.... but the OG point was lacking the context that pre- and post- Burton version, there were many carbon copies of the exact same Batman across media. The original post claims 'remaking' a carbon copy of a story is some new form of cultural decline. That isn't the case

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@ejtmanley @Darren_Mooney He mentioned Batman as an example of "new takes on old things", as if we haven't been remaking *carbon copies* of Batman across media way before & way after Tim Burton. My point is we have always remade carbon copies of popular things, it's not a 'new' cultural degradation thing

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@Darren_Mooney You'll lose your mind when you find out we have been replicating the image of Cleopatra across various media programs for literally centuries

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@Darren_Mooney Darren are you familiar with "Superman" or "Batman" or perhaps "James Bond", you should check some of those out. I don't think any new theses need to be written on "new popular thing enters circulation of things that get remade a lot"

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@rissaoffline Omg yes I did read this about a year ago and it clarified so much! Obviously I am biased as a representative of Ask Culture, but I just think it's a much better way to function - and many countries seem to have decided the same and defaulted to Ask Culture on a societal level

@caryatis I have noticed fake-agreeing is seen as a super polite high-etiquette thing to do in the US since I moved here, but tbh I think that's to the detriment of your ability to communicate well with each other! Have witnessed so many totally preventable (and hurtful) misunderstandings

[Pavlina Draganova @ppdraganova]

@caryatis Are you American? Bc this is not at all a traditional etiquette rule in many parts of the world, eg in Eastern Europe (where I'm originally from) it's seen as a mark of care & respect to contradict someone if you disagree, and fake-agreeing is seen as duplicitous, therefore rude

@nicochristie Hi, would love to try this!

[Jesse Peltan @JessePeltan]

Solar in China generated ~1/3 as much as *all* U.S. generation last month.

And it’s doubling every 2 years.

@nikitabier @kurorosage Because it's 2025 and not 2014, your phone and laptop both have the ability to autofill these fields in a split second. Hope this helps!
