  • looks like 2000-2001

    It’s… compelling in a really bad B-movie sort of way. Like the idea is great, and some of the scene design and concept is really cool, but it’s genuinely hard to watch in a lot of places between the acting (Cleo herself has a screaming habit, at least early on - I don’t recall if she grew out of it, and is dumb as shit imo) and that it’s clearly meant to be a sex-appeal-hook. Basically fishing for Xena fan crossover, but done so poorly it basically flopped.

    Fun to watch, but don’t expect too much :)


  • In my area, which is a fairly low cost of living area, I know exactly one couple who do that. They have their home and apartments where they work.

    They are literally millionaires, and their primary home is literally a mansion. As in just sold a ski condo a couple years ago, one of several properties they own, for 10 million profit kind of millionaires. (And yes they do bitch about taxes and safety net programs for the poors. Frequently.)

    A lot of people around me do have “winter homes” in the south or “lake houses” further north, but that’s seasonal/occasional rather than something they use every week, and it’s mostly retired people who got money and residences when that was an easy thing to do. And most of them rent out the space when not in use.













  • It’s not naive, it’s a lie meant to change the conversation and distort the opinions of people who don’t know better.

    If the person representing the government says it, it must be true, right?

    They aren’t saying that for people who know better. They don’t care about people who know better. They are saying it for people who don’t. Those are their supporters. Those are the people who can be made into supporters.
