  • I partially disagree. There are creative works that are being made today that are just as thoughtful, inspiring, aesthetically pleasing and engaging as the ones made in yesteryears. Our view of the art of the past is warped by the tendency for the good to be preserved and passed on while the bad is cast aside. However, in the past 30 years or so media corporations have gotten marketability down to a science in the name of creating safe investments, not stimulating art. That approach creates highly sucessful, super visible, and entirely bland slop like the Marvel movies and Call of Dutys of the world. Its not that its all worse, its just that the great stuff is lower profile. In my opinion the advent of high-bandwidth internet has partially counteracted this by making global distribution acessable to the everyman.








  • Loves me an Aldis. I kinda like the limited choices? Sure it can be annoying when I gotta add a couple stops to get the less common indredients or the “no really you gotta get the name brand” stuff but are many fewer avenues for self-doubt in one of those places. They have lots of nifty useful things in that limited time offer aisle, I got a sonic toothbrush for 20 bucks there, so that was neat. The frozen pizzas are pretty good but like actually why are there 20-25 varieties there? Its kinda fucking insane like pizza is the easiest thing to add your own shit to why are there so many different kinds?

    I will say, that a lot of the produce is very hit or miss and the bread all kinda sucks dick unless its that cinnamon swirl dessert shit.
