I often miss normie cultural memes (never had a Netflix account, never read online magazines) but tonight I finally googled Marie Kondo. Wtf why do people let their brains be infected with this stuff

you don't have a netflix account?? we need an intervention (but yes, watching marie kondo did not bring me joy)

I haven’t watched a tv show in years.. and I can’t sit through movies...

what about documentaries? there are so many good ones on there!

I dunno they all seem super biased? why produce a doc unless you’re trying to specifically frame a certain message? the deliberateness of the message annoys me. everyone loves Adam Curtis docs which drove me insane with their charismatic misrepresentations of the past

of course they're biased. everything is, really, even biographies. never watched any Adam Curtis docs, but there's this good doc about an unknown photographer with a bizarre story that came to light after someone found her old photos in a garage sale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finding_Vivian_Maier …

I do think Adam Curtis got one of the best titles ever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Watched_Over_by_Machines_of_Loving_Grace_(TV_series) … Only watched half an episode, not really for me (more or less for the reason Riva said).
