This is terrible but today when I was playing volleyball outside with some friends one of their children (18 months) was sort of ambling around on his stumpy little toddler legs and so we were all trying to be careful and like not spike the ball onto the baby but then he wandered over to his father, who picked him up bc dad reflexes, and then the ball got passed over to the dad and he sort of had a no thoughts moment and instinctively used his child to smack the volleyball over to the next person. Like he just swung the kid and used his legs like a baseball bat. I’m never going to forget his face of premature regret mid baby-manuever right when he realized what he was doing AND the instant he realized his wife saw it happen. Anyway the baby was fine he didn’t make contact with the ball all that hard and he was just mad his dad wouldn’t use him as a club again but I had to sit down because I laughed so hard I cried.

the thing is there’s like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it’s why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids “have short attention spans” but… that’s not quite it. it’s more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.

capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their “own version” of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.

now it’s not just tiktokkers making videos; it’s that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don’t get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven’t googled it, but there’s probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you’re reading this post.

and we are like “hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable.” and the company nods and says “yes totally. here is a different clone, but special.” and we look at clone 2 and we say “nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all” and they’re like “no, totally, we hear you,” and then they make another clone but this time it’s, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they’ve successfully rolled out “clone 89”, the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn’t turning a profit.

and like - take even something digital like the tumblr “live streaming” function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that’s the kicker here: even something that doesn’t have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.

and it all just feels like it’s rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you’re like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say “okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of ‘spicy’ love triangle” and you’re like - hey man i think you’re misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they’ve already printed 76 versions of “city of blood and magic” and “queen of diamond rule” and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie “Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You”.

it’s like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it’s worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like “no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that’s because it was different and new” and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying “well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you’re bored of this is because maybe there’s something wrong with you!”

and no hesitation saying “oh it’s that creepy clown- oh he’s drinking that’s against clown code”

1. ARE YOU NOT GOING TO EXPLAIN YOUR GRANDMA’S PAST CLOWN CAREER?
2. WHAT’S CLOWN CODE??????????????

Clown code.

I call a lot of y'all clowns but it turns out that’s too good for you since even they live by a code.

When I think about American attitudes to parenting there’s something that always comes to mind, but I don’t know whether it’s a real thing. All my life in American films and TV I’ve heard child characters addressing their dads as “sir” or being told off for not doing so.

Is that really a commonplace thing in American families, or is it just a shorthand way of showing that the character is a shitty dad?

calling dads sir, in the US

It’s real and I’ve seen it first hand

I it’s how I was raised

shitty-dad shorthand

it’s real outside the US

There’s still time to increase the sample size!
