I liked that movie. Kind of. I guess it was entertaining and obviously had a huge message but the acting wasn't great, especially from Leo (and Jennifer Lawrence is bad in just about everything but I still like her for some reason), but it was kinda fun if you're drunk.

I like a whole lot of bad movies though. The past week or so I've been thinking of making a thread about that but I'm a giant pussy and only try to make threads that will be a hit.

I'll probably do it soon.

If you do make a Bad Movies thread, link me it. I like bad movies.

Sure but they weren't saying that people with small dicks get laid more than people with big dicks (or even should get laid more). They were well aware that women generally prefer their men not to have micro-hogs even if preference in exactly how big they wanted varied. They were just saying men should focus on intellectual pursuits, not the pursuit of loving. Also the Greeks believed small dicks were better if you were trying to get a woman pregnant because "the semen has less distance to travel from the penis to the vagina," so they obviously they weren't super geniuses.

Bad trashy movies are good. Good movies are good. super middle of the road generic movies are boring as hell. Always better to see a movie where they tried for something inserting and failed spectacularly, rather than one where no one really tried and they succeed.

The next year plus looks like it's gonna be a ridiculous set of twists and turns to arrive at some kind of "new normal" for soc media. Happy to throw a couple hundred bucks plus at liability-avoidance to run an instance through that storm, even if it's just another thing in the long list of year long projects I did and then abandoned to fester on the internet.

That said, there's a handful of content providers I was following who were already on mastodon and so that made me want to sign up to just continue to get those inputs, and at least messing around with standing up my own instance seemed like fun. So, here I am, $250 later.

I always assumed the “ancient Greeks thought small penises we’re beautiful” thing came about less as a formal rule and more that if you were sculpting marble dudes with huge hogs people would side eye you and someone would probably break it off to take home so best sidestep it.

I was quoting what I remembered one of my old history professors saying when somebody asked about why Greek statues had tiny dicks, but upon googling it, the only article I can find referencing it has actually since removed the line. Maybe it was bad research. Idk, it's been ages since I've been in college. I did find this when I googled it though:

quote:

In his play The Clouds (c. 419–423 BC), ancient Greek playwright, Aristophanes, summed up the ideal traits of his male peers as “a gleaming chest, bright skin, broad shoulders, tiny tongue, strong buttocks, and a little prick.”

It’s funny that folks say ”an entire civilization believed X” because some random smallpenised greek goon wrote a play trying to claim that actually, small penises are cool and good! and 2000 years later someone finds this text and concludes that this totally was the norm and popular belief
