![A Bluesky user based in Venezuela posted 'I live near a military air base and five earth-shaking explosions were just heart.'

I get disappointed. I get disliked. And I even get the reasons why. But I simply refuse to accept "less popular that the gormless Bob's Burgers-looking freak who immediately killed the Queen and tanked the economy."
That level of personal animus just does not compute with me.

It does feel to me like the Indiana Jones canon is missing a movie where it turns out the main artefact actually isn’t supernatural.
Like a properly cynical entry which probably would have come out in the mid 90s.
