Actually i *hadn't read it* (even tho i commented somewhere down) cuz the title was too close to other woke pieces (actually this isn't really a woke piece - and happy you wrote something original, not cut-and-paste) so changed the title to separate it.

Is that Blue Öyster Cult?

I just realized that this post got so many views that it got its title changed around. I'm going to write another one on this subject, and I'll give only one clue:

Not sure if "hallmark"

In reply to I saw some of those tweets

Not sure if "hallmark" expresses it, but it does seem to be a signal moment for some. I for one take it a bit personally, as i never felt like or identified as a boomer, especially not my loser brothers, and thought I was doing rockets, not howdy-doody, so seriously don't know what happened to all these entitled non-punks. Yeah, i remember the "promise" of graduation as darkened Detroit factories and a short note on the fridge, "sorry 'bout the birthright and jobs, had to mortgage the house for a cruise, figured you wouldn't mind". Nice that the "greatest generation" kids got to live off the mantle a few more years and then tell everyone how great they were too. My generation (real or perceived) invented data analytics to measure and tell them just how full of shit they were, preferably just by clapping their hands so we wouldn't have to be in the same room.

In reply to Gen X-Men vs culture

I saw some of those tweets but I had no idea how extensive it was, thought the whole thing pretty awesome: pretty much experts at short snark packed with nuance! It might be a hallmark of the generation?

Gen X-Men vs culture

In reply to From X-Men to Mutants: Wokeism grows up

I hadn't read Orion's piece even though I commented on the thread, because as frequently happens we got off on some tangential well-trod argument over the usual suspects. Instead, Marilyn Manson, X-Men, other counter culture fanzine-like dissection takes place for our enjoyment.

More, better, onward - thanks, Orion

Maria Bartiromoro invites a guest to have fun with the cancellation of Pepe Le Pew

The guest from WSJ instead agrees that the behavior of Pepe is not acceptable in 2021

Bartiromo quickly shuts down the segment

Fox Business Network host Maria Bartiromo was so excited Tuesday morning for her big segment on the Looney Tunes character Pepé Le Pew, declaring, “Cancel culture takes on cartoons!”

But that excitement quickly turned to visual frustration when her guest refused to echo her outrage.

As Bartiromo explained to viewers, the upcoming Space Jam sequel decided to cut out a scene featuring the sexually assaulting skunk. She laughed off the notion that the animated character could be “promoting rape culture” and joked, “Bugs Bunny better watch out, they’re coming for him!”

Wall Street Journal writer Jon Hilsenrath, who seemed to not quite believe this is what he was on the Fox Business Network to discuss, decided to shut her down instead of playing along.

“You know, Maria, I’m watching those videos that you have of this and I always used to think that cartoon was funny, but he is kind of grabbing and groping in ways that are just totally unacceptable today,” he said in the segment first spotted by Mediaite. “So, you know, I kind of think norms change over time. And maybe it’s time for Pepé Le Pew to beat it.”
