Yeah that's the part I agree with, caught up in the gears of the machine shit, for real. But, for me, "Kids today don't appreciate the classics of (art form), all they respond to is (popular iteration)." is just never going to pass the sniff test.

Also, I remember being the kid who read a lot more than my peers and I definitely remember how that was alienating even 25 years ago. I remember thinking how book-dumb other kids were, like how many more words and contexts I was familiar with, I absolutely returned their disrespect based on that feeling of superiority, I clung to it sometimes as I was ostracized for all the other things kids hate about other kids. I can absolutely see a lot of people who were kids who read a lot more than other kids growing up into these teachers and professors, and idk if that's being considered here.

Ppl on the other hellsite losing their minds over this in every imaginable direction lmao

surely the next megastructure will bring us closer to god. trust me guys!

I will genuinely never forgive anyone involved in making The Imitation Game for their absolute travesty of Alan Turing’s story.

He was intensely autistic, and gay, and *kind*.

He mentored people below him in the programme - including women, who pretty much everyone else was crappy to.

He had terrible allergies and went cycling in a gas mask in the country to avoid then, and when he got overstimulated at parties he pulled incredibly daft elaborate “walking into a cupboard” leaving gags to handle them that left everyone screaming on the floor despite the silliness.

He got on really well with kids and never talked down to them. He gave his neighbours his sugar rations on their kids’ birthdays so she could always make them birthday cakes - even when he was being persecuted after the war, even when he was suffering horrible side effects from the tortures they put him through.

He was such an utterly, genuinely lovely human being, and he deserved so much damn better, and at the very *least* he deserved to be portrayed as who he was in the 21st fucking century instead of falling into a whole slew of horrifically harmful stereotypes that erased the fucking gift he was to us all over again.
