for anyone too young to know this: watching The Truman Show is a vastly different experience now, compared to how it was before youtube and social media influencers became normal
before it was like, "what a horrifying thing to do to a human being! to take away their autonomy and privacy, all for the sake of profits! to create fake scenarios for them to react to, just to retain viewership! to ruin their happiness just so some corporate entity could harvest money from their very humanity! how could anyone do something so evil?"
and now it's like, "ah, yeah. this is still deeply fucked up, but it's pretty much what every influencer has been doing to their kids for a decade now. probably bad that we've normalized this experience"

I've seen a lot of HCs of Tech and Crosshair as twins. I also saw one of Tech and Wrecker being the twins.
But I raise you one! Wrecker and Crosshair are the twins.👀
My evidence:
Edit: I'm well aware of the fact that they're (the BB) the same age and that there's no genetic twins or anything in this case. I do not claim any of the twin HCs as fact. I just had a silly what if thought prompted by the several twin HCs on my dash daily and decided to raise people one. So I know it's not correct, nor does it make much sense. It's just for fun. /Lh

the bad batch s2 ep 3: a dark story about despair and loneliness under the oppressive hand of fascism. characters have to grapple with themselves and the terrible choices they've made or have been forced to make. when the world around you goes to hell, do you decide to leave everything you've ever known, or dig yourself further in, damning yourself?

not surprising but still wild that google added an ai feature to the very top of every single searches that gives incorrect information more often than not. like a beloved restaurant that randomly starts topping all of their food with cyanide one day for no reason. no you’re not allowed to ask them to not top your dish with cyanide this is the future of food
