Lord, I know I haven't been a good man

Lord, I know I haven't been a good man, but I deserve some sort of reparations for the amount of people who argue with me when I'm not wrong or just repeat my point back at me, badly. Or worse, try to make a joke off my joke but theirs is a parasite that kills the original humour.

In other less pissy news:

Watched Strange World, the 2022 Disney animated movie I never saw advertised anywhere with my friend. We played our game of 'why did Disney bury this movie?' as we watched and found a bunch of examples which spoke well for the movie.

Further, the movie was interesting as it read as the evolution of the sci-fi genre - macho man white grandpa, sensitive but still colonial white son, equity and systemic minded black grandson and The Women Were Also There I Guess (I liked them but they did not get any arcs, which was frustrating but also, I suppose, a sign of the sci-fi metaphor).

Also Splat was like, the Chosen One on his own quest in there. That's my explanation for why he's the only blue one and how he leads to the heroes succeeding in their heroing.

I'm a hour into the film now and I had to pause and come here to remind me about the theory I'm supposed to subscribe to. I see. I haven't seen anything that would contradict it but I hope to find more than that in the second half!
