Ah, finished and served dinner while my wife took a nap, then put all the leftovers away and did dishes / cleaned the kitchen while she played cards. Definitely got some extra husband XP today.
Now pie time.

Dad got me an early XMas present…an IPhone SE
I’m not there but he messaged me and did some basic setup
I’ve never had an Iphone before but my current potato phone is finally 100% obsolete and will no longer be supported so I needed a replacement
I would have been happy with one of those old person phones from consumer cellular or something but Dad likes to go all out

My gut reaction to ANYONE recreating Squid Game will always be 😬. Like, i don't wanna be the "You criticize capitalism yet you yourself own money" idiot or anything but, like... I don't think that's really something you can emulate without a massive dose of self-arwareness. Specifically because "Wow, poor people playing fun games for money" is not really the point of Squid Game.
IDK, i didn't watch the whole Squid Game series. Maybe in the end it's revealed the "dead" people were just playing along.
TL;DR: Mr Beast does a thing that criticises capitalism yet is a capitalism himself. Curious. I am very intelligent.
the rapids are good this season, yeah! They're still my beloved shitty rapids and i fully expect them to do something embarrassing in the playoffs but right now i'm hype mode

considering the website for the show is just a massive merchandise store and the creator is making a originally unplanned sequel cause Netflix is paying him the world I think talking about capitalism wrt Squid Game isn't really as valid as people like to think it is.

broar, the sounds a lot like saying that the creator can't be making a criticism of capitalism because they themselves benefit from capitalism.

I mean more towards that people who say "YOUR MISSING THE POINT" with all the parodies and merch when the creator agreed to make an unplanned sequel for what can only be $Texas amounts of cash
some times fiction is fiction and its message isn't anything more then entertainment.

I don't care if, to the creators, Squid Game is meaningless things that happens for no reason. That just means the meaning a TON of people got from it is there by coincidence. It's still there, though. THere is a critique of Capitalism to be found and it is valid despite the creator's best efforts.
I reject the idea that fiction can be wholly devoid of message because their creators didn't put it in with pure intent.

if there’s one thing we all know, it’s that authorial action and intent is the total arbiter of meaning when it comes to textual interpretation

I ordered ramen from a new place and the broth is extremely meh, not anywhere near salty enough, i ordered it with ginger and they didn't put any in and overall wasn't great.

Knowing what he does for charity I'm ok with this and the work put in is INSANE kudos to him and his team
tl;dr Mr Beast recreated every set from Squid Game and its cool as hell

I quit doing deep reading of texts when I stopped being an Arts and Humanities educator
From now on it’s textual literalism all the time, baby!!
One Hundred Years of Solitude is just about a messed up family
Squid Game is just about a bunch of guys having a bad time
Almost as bad tbh

"The website says it's in stock" followed by them checking the back actually works a decent amount of the time in my experience.
