Going skiing on Saturday

Male lead in a film I'm teaching this semester. Big deal being made of it in the French media, including Macron releasing a statement.

Was skiing without a helmet apparently

Grim. The Schumacher effect?

Well at least whoever you're going with will be skiing with a helmet

No idea how normal or otherwise it is tbh - not sure how mich difference a helmet would really make if you smashed your head while going full tilt down a mountain

Why's he dressing like Daniel Plainview?

Funny how Peterson has changed from being seen as this sort of edgy guy who was saying things maybe people didn't want to hear but could back them up a bit and debate well to just fully off the cliff Alex Jones style

There's something quite funny seeing the pair of Rogan and Peterson sitting there just fully off the deep end compared to how they were when Peterson was first on the podcast He looks absolutely horrendous, was he not in some sort of coma for ages?

Why's he dressing like Daniel Plainview?  

Because certain people need him to be their absent dad so he cosplays like their fantasy of what a present father figure would like like. They probably imagine him pegging them from behind in his suit telling them their room needs cleaned.

I'm working on boring preparatory stuff, so just dropping in some of my hot takes every hour or so.  

Nah but I do believe a lot of Peterson's following are young men who haven't had a decent male role model in their life. No issue there, but the fact that JP leans into that to create a cult-like support for himself is quite sinister, imo. I do think he consciously decides on his attire as to how it will play with his followers rather than "I really fancy looking like a manequinn today - lets wear that".  He's successfully selling his own mundane, garbage musings on topics that are totally out of his lane of expertise as some sort of wise philosophing from an old mage and his aesthetic is all about curating that profile.

There ya go, you got a serious answer, but I prefer the idea that he's peggin his cult members up the farter.

Seize hard drive.

Going to pozzy this specifically because I don't know if Fraggle means Peterson or Scott and, crucially, it doesn't matter.

See Jimmy Carr is being cancelled.

It is hard to see the humour in this one tbh

Guaranteed to be the most watched comedy special on Netflix this year. Oh to be cancelled.

[King Kebab]

I found that funny.

[pondlife]

He's just 'said' exterminate gypsies! lol

[The Great Chilavert]

That show came on Netflix on Xmas eve. Why's it taken two months for someone to notice that joke
