It still trips me out that visible light, infrared, microwave radiation, radio waves, x-rays, ultraviolet, and even laser beams are all just photons.
Particle radiation is a whole other can of worms. It boggles the mind.

I don’t see how you can be a fan of physical media and still fail to see see what’s special about a community-supported video museum with a huge emphasis on physical media preservation.
Now, is it the ideal solution? Maybe, actually - imagine if the state ran it? They’d refuse to carry certain things. Stuff could disappear if the wrong type of people got into public office. As it stands, they have a huge selection of R-rated, NC-17, and unrated media. They have every genre of film, stuff you simply cannot license anymore, rare and otherwise impossible to source media, and they do it with style.
It may not work as a business model anymore, and humanity’s videography is not sanitary enough for it to work as a fully public institution - I think they’ve struck upon a perfectly workable (if inelegant) middle ground.

You wouldn’t say that about video rental if you’ve been to Scarecrow Video in Seattle. They go way beyond what any modern streamer can do. It’s an institution, and one of the only things I actually miss about the states.

American tax rates need to go 70 years into the past and stay that way until billionaires stop existing.

Yeah exactly. It’s not the real 1995 unless you can get called a slur for not hyperbolically performing your agab like it was a Tony award performance.

It’s just… A plot synopsis is on every book’s wiki page. For free. If that’s your idea of “reading a book”, it’s right there.

Eternity: vast and unsympathetic, big but meaningless, awesome in scope but profoundly empty
My life on Earth: just for me, connected to many others of equal specialness, meaningful because of its finite nature
