Content creators have to make content somehow

I love how cold and impersonal they call their work. "Content creator" sounds more soulless than advertising executive. Though it doesn't sound as bad as influencer.

Don't read the Black Mirror thread here because you will realize you are actually Cyber Hitler for thinking that all those digital clones being tortured was good.

I think it's supposed to be a little unsettling at least. But my impression was that they weren't 100% virtual clones like in other episodes.

The Wire has some painfully bad scenes like the whole chess game metaphor and when Omar is testifying in court about how guns and briefcases are equivalent and the crowd is all shocked. McNulty's accent also sucks.

Started watching Vikings, does the lead actor get better? I've watched 4 eps so far and he's just....:shrug: It's not stopping me from watching the show because the setting is cool and it's well produced but he just doesn't seem to have much range at all.

Yes. I didn't really love the show until season 2. I went back to see some season 1 episodes a while ago and it's really low budget compared to what the show is now. The actor steps up in later seasons.

So I hadn't bothered to watch any Black Mirror except San Junipero (heard romance and 80's pop figured heavily, must-watch), but recently I watched USS Callister and Hang the DJ. Preferred the former to the latter, but both were fun riffs on the same sort of idea, and more to the point, were less grim than the hype led me to believe about Black Mirror. Which other Black Mirror episodes aren't super-grim? I just ain't in the mood for really dark twists or characters put through the ringer. okay, USS Callister actually gets pretty horrifying, but it's buoyed by being a rip into the nice guy trope, with a bona fide happy ending, and a tremendous performance by Cristin Milioti (who really deserves her own show, she's got loads of charisma to spare).

In my view, USS Callister, San Junipero, Hang the DJ, and maybe Hated in the Nation are the only ones with some semblance of happiness. The rest end badly. White Christmas for example is a waking nightmare of despair and shook me to my core. I love it.

It looks pretty bad on Aziz's part but it's hard for me to believe that a 90 pound twig like him could physically force anyone to do anything. In the article she says he asked several times for a blowjob and she eventually did it. The gently caress? Why not tell him to go gently caress himself. I don't think he committed any crime, the most he did was sort of forcefully put his fingers in her mouth which is weird and maybe he watches too much porn. Unless there's a torrent of other accusers showing this happens a lot, I bet he'll be fine with an apology.

I said Aziz is the one that has to apologize. That said, does she bare absolutely no responsibility for her own actions regarding the blowjob? Overall it's good that people are speaking out and getting the story out there but there's room for nuance too. What power dynamic does he have over her. It's not like Harvey Weinstein promising someone a career for sleeping with him.

With Harvey Weinstein it's one thing. But Aziz is like 80 pounds and shops in the boys clothing section. He's an rear end in a top hat but I don't really see it in the same ballpark as Weinstein or Kevin Spacey.
