I Believe in Santa

This week, we artificially extended the Christmas-tacular because Eli is still upset about having to do a non-Xmas movie for the live show.
corporations are not your friends. i say as a long time die hard nintendo fan

No she just means he looks like the CGI donkeys from the latest remake, I believe.

It just kind of felt like it was dragging. It felt like there were a lot of undeveloped plot lines that just became what the movie would focus on now and if it resolved instantly? great, if not? Oh well. I don't want to spoil anything so I'm trying to be as generic as possible.

I'm very confused by what Cara thinks the donkeys in Pinocchio were. I'm not sure she means to be comparing the guy in this movie to kids who get magically punished for misbehaving.

I'll totally shit on Disney adults, no lie. I like some of their movies, but don't simp for a corporation.

As a Canadian, it's kind of weird to hear people react to this as new information. Like, I've known that you don't call native Arctic peoples that first word for basically my whole life, as it's been treated as at least rude or inappropriate since the 2000s.
Not trying to hype myself up for woke points or something, just thought it was interesting that it's almost like a culture shock that a lot of Americans don't know that.

Really? That's so disappointing. I love the silent version and had hoped for something similar with more money and better photography.

You're very welcome! I could go on all day about sexual violence against indigenous women, but I won't. If you're interested, though, here's a brief article on this particular expression. There's also a really disgusting example of this myth in the novel The Manchurian Candidate, of all things. https://www.bustle.com/articles/95784-what-does-eskimo-brothers-mean-heres-why-we-need-to-stop-using-the-offensive-slang-term

Will you guys be doing nosferatu? It's kind of religious and completely awful.

I didn’t pick up on any mean-spiritedness. She just seems sort of worn out by the difficulties of dating men, which makes sense when probably 60% of them think she should have fewer rights and opportunities than them. I’m worn out with men, too, and I am one! I think she’s pointing out that a woman can’t be as selective when the potential pool of respectful men is so small.

I think it is a bit, and it is also true Cara seems to have very specific tastes in guys. Lots of people don't share those tastes and there is someone out there for who you are. But The judgemental view of Tom is pretty well justified considering the guy IS a bad partner.

FYI, “Esk—— brothers” is a racist and misogynist slur based on the colonizer view that indigenous women are communal property. This was a funny episode until that popped out. I will not be debating this, so save your virtual breath.

It looks odd, but my dad’s wheelchair accessible kitchen has all the cupboards below the counter, except for a few open shelves. The oven and microwave are low as well.

I think, or at least hope, it's a bit. Much like Eli does, but not as obvious. But I can see how it can come across like that.

I literally only use them for things I want to keep but barely use and are too big to keep anywhere else.

I'm still waiting for them to watch Joshua and the Promised Land for GAM.
I loved when they covered El Arca (Noah's Ark).

Damn, I would've loved to hear them tackle that monstrosity. I also wish they covered more animated fare in their bonus episodes.

I just want you to know I appreciate you posting this in a way that doesn't assume bad faith.

I don't mean to make too much of comments made on a fun comedy podcast, but some of the stuff Cara was saying felt a bit mean spirited? Like I'm just a dude out here in a new city trying to find love and the thought that the women I've dated are thinking of me like that is kinda disheartening

As probably the only Sharon on this Patreon, it’s totally jarring to hear your name that many times. There aren’t that many of us.

Only if made ex nihilo; if Santa imports raw materials, or makes them out of snow, it's Transmutation.

Oh, my gosh! I have a friend, female, early thirties, who still believes in Santa and it is awkward!

So I cannot believe that I was the only one who saw this. In the milk and cookies scene right before she gets the iPhone you can see soot cgi effects coming down into the fire. In the movie santa is real and thinks the kid should have an iPhone.

From the description of the plot, this is not "Rapsittie Street Kids Believe in Santa".

Most people don't know e*kimo is a slur. I literally already had the article saved due to a recent discussion about it. When I heard y'all say it I figured I'd send it to y'all too.

I once read a few comments about the movie version of Crazy Rich Asians where women commenters were glad that the female lead is an economics professor instead of the usual glurge.
Also the thing about timestamps is real and why the comments are usually disabled on YouTube videos of kids doing gymnastics.

Santa Shows up, But it is not Saint Nick, but odin as the guise of Jolner the Yule time god, demanding a blood sacrefice.

Is this the Rapsittie Street Kids christmas special or is this just something that coincidentally shares the title?

Hopefully we can start the new year with “Mazes and Monsters”, where a baby Tom Hanks tries D&D and goes absolutely bonkers
