20th century fox is changing it's name to 20th century cinemas, the name it had originally before it merged with Fox pictures in 1936. It's inaccurate to call it as 'going back to its roots' really, because that was a long time ago, and it's not really 'roots' anymore as a 'long lost ancestor everyone's forgotten about really who they will remember only when something good comes up and they can get free cookie points for them'. Still, good for them, because anytime I see that iconic logo in the movies, I'm reminded there's the word 'Fox' in there, which must somehow be related to the despicable news channel and website that publishes pure propaganda trash but at least it's doing its part in taking down the American empire. So that's great. I don't think it's actually intentional though and there's kind of the fact that they'd very happily welcome fascism if they could and are limited only by their robust institutions that they're weakening anyway. Still, if the demolition of an empire means the imperial capital turns into a fascist state, that's probably the price worth paying right? Oh god, these are scary times, make no mistake about it.
And that's the end of it I think. I wrote the previous paragraph completely stressed out zoned out inattentive and um while smiling at and talking to someone I don't know at all, and they said, ohh is there anything else you wanted to say I'm going and I said Umm noo I think I'm sorry and they went and so there I am like always wondering if I should have said something but who knows this is a strange world there are things, people make mistakes, miscommunication is rampant and generally it's an awful place to be out there talking to random strangers not because they're awful or anything but the various mistakes you could make that'll make you feel bad about yourself and things that could have been. To live is to suffer, is life worth the suffering it brings along with it? It's commonly thought that it is indeed very much worth it but sometimes you have to wonder, the embarrassment, the self-loathing and the blaming yourself on not doing obvious things and then sometimes doing things that in retrospect you should have obviously not done, are they really worth all of it. These are difficult questions yikes, I should be around more human beings generally speaking.
