I mean it kind of needs to be both. But it’s hard to find a compelling reason why kids need their smartphones fully accessible during class.

Who cares? Let them have fun.

Memes like this, at least to me, mostly accomplish two things:

  1. some people get to enjoy mocking a group of people that align with their values in more ways than they don’t.
  2. some people feel dissuaded from doing anything.

We don’t know when small actions added up will make a difference or perhaps even lead to bigger actions. But I just don’t think, as a general rule, we should sit at our computers mocking those who spend their time doing something productive or at least attempting to make things a tiny bit better.

So in this case: help get Pikachu a firehouse. Or go find a squirtle to help. Perhaps you have a better solution on hand and you two can work together. Either way, pointing at him and mocking his attempts to be helpful, even if they maybe won’t solve the issue, just doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.

I have an 8 year old iPad that can still use Amazon video and can still run Netflix, and google drops support for these computers as early as 3 years. I’m not an Apple fanboy but that is absolutely ridiculous.

The first public crack in the armor really came in 2019 when he inserted himself in the Thailand cave rescue effort in the worst way.

Let's not gloss over the fact that he started calling people "pedos" for not liking his rescue idea.

Everyone should go over to Firefox as well as advocate against this.

This is “memes.” Are you expecting Dostoevsky?

Which is why these union negotiations are so important. Sure, that will probably happen. But if SAG-AFTRA says they can’t be used on union shows, well, they won’t be lol

When I first started in film any time I had a SAG actor there were requirements I had to adhere to for their pay and hours, no exceptions. And I live in a right to work state!

You shouldn’t make any assumptions that depend on Reddit functioning properly or there being any logic to its disjointed systems lol
