You'd probably like this one, which shows you how to put them out and how to not put them out.

Ahh, but the 1970s films/music never went away..Thanks to the internet one can access them easy.

I get that. Which is why I�m constantly on a hunt to dig up the most obscure ones. And I�m one of the few people feeling actively grateful for the internet for that exact reason every day. But that doesn�t mean I don�t wish I could find something new, somehow processing contemporary concerns, but with that �70s/�90s vibe. People keep trying, of course, hence the faux Scorsese of �Joker�. But it�s all just off.

This and the dread "gentle parenting," aka letting your kid walk all over you, are both on their way out, thankfully.

same way everyone tries to get their kid into a good charter school. they will eventually try to get their kids into phone free zones. i'm glad phones, even just the shit ones, didn't become ubiquitous until i was in high school.

i actually got my cake and ate it too. it went straight to my ass!

I really hope that this momentum continues.

That would be incredible. I hope I live to see the day.
