Was it though…..
The last scene of stranger things
Because how did Mike and El meet in the void if El was affected by the machines?
And why would the machines clearly not pointed at the portal affect El?

If you wanna hitch your wagon to an institution that claims the pope is infallible despite being a human then go for it.
Might wanna know that one those popes recently stated that humans are innately good, contradicting the entire need of Jesus’s sacrifice for our redemption from original sin.
His successor also blessed a literal block of ice in the name of climate change.
:dunno:

Does anyone have any ideas about whey such a seismic shift in the depictions of white men has occurred over the period of time since these shows were airing and now?
They quit hiring straight white guys.
The Lost Generation by Jacob Savage
quote:
In 2011, the year I moved to Los Angeles, white men were 48 percent of lower-level TV writers; by 2024, they accounted for just 11.9 percent. The Atlantic’s editorial staff went from 53 percent male and 89 percent white in 2013 to 36 percent male and 66 percent white in 2024. White men fell from 39 percent of tenure-track positions in the humanities at Harvard in 2014 to 18 percent in 2023.
In retrospect, 2014 was the hinge, the year DEI became institutionalized across American life.

Stranger Things has had a lesbian in the main cast since 2019 and it was obvious in 2022 that Netflix made the Duffers write Will as gay so why are you melting down about it now?
Having homosexuals in the main cast =/= homosexuality being the key to beating the main villain.
Will unlocked his powers by admitting to himself he’s gay and he defeated Vecna’s control over him by coming out of the closet :lol:
Don’t act like it’s some minor plot point only bigots would take issue with

So how do we think this finale plays out?
Will and Robin defeat Vecna with the power of gayness
Nancy goes the girl-boss route and stays single because she doesn’t need no man
Hopper sacrifices himself for El
El stays in the upside when it collapses and kills herself
Straight white people are not allowed to be happy together

I’ve read some compelling arguments that AGI is not even possible.
I particularly like the idea that consciousness is a fundamental property of the universe instead of just a byproduct of matter.
