"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by magical mystery tours..."

Tons of people worked insanely hard to make it work as well as it does, particularly writer/director Brian Duffield and stars Katherine Langford and Charlie Plummer. So if you're interested in an allegorical-existential-teen-romance-splatter-horror-comedy, give it a try!

True enough. I've given up predicting what will happen, but I certainly know there's a lot of people in military leadership that are disgusted and embarrassed by this.

I can guarantee many of the generals and senior officers have children that live (and thrive) in these cities. It's like they think everyone in the military is some city-hating yokel.

Friendly reminder that I block people who post some variant of "it won't matter because nothing matters" on sight. Not even because they're wrong, but because I find this habit of saying the most tedious and predictable thing as if that makes you an edgy truth teller incredibly grating.
