Terry Pratchett's "Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socio-economic unfairness". The best quote I've ever read about why being poor can be so expensive.

Can we just admit that we NEED immigrants for our economy to run, from agriculture to high tech? We’re a goddamn nation of immigrants, aren’t we? Let’s be proud of our immigrant heritage!

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

I thought this could develop into a conversation but it seems I've been blocked from replying. Interesting. Known tropes, sure - people appreciate what's familiar. And backers love a safer bet. But as a viewer, verbatim remakes are so tedious especially when there are so many good books out there.

We don't need more remakes of old movies. We need more MUPPETS remakes of old movies.

Using an AI generated image is the 2020s equivalent of pressing the "demo" button on a casio keyboard and pretending to play the keys.
