Hopefully the big studios doing shit like this leads to a resurgence of true indie cinema. I won't hold my breath for it, but I'll hope.

Common misconception.
July and August were renamed. The original names were derived from five and six. The extra two months that threw everything off were January and February. When 5-10 were named January and February didn't even have names, it was just that cold period when there was no planting or harvesting. There were a bunch of other changes to the calendar over the centuries before we got where we are too.

He didn't fuck with anything. For them it was money well spent. Think of all the things that used to be coordinated and all the information shared on Twitter. That's gone, or at least seriously degraded, that's what they bought.
Lingua franca dude. I've never heard "hit the wall" used outside the man-o-sphere. Maybe not exclusively incel, but incel adjacent at least.
He's hated. But in a way that makes you want to see more of him.
I imagined work as a building with a big neon sign out front that said "work".
Yeah, they kind of had a point until they busted out the incel-speak at the end.
Careful with that. If you're not making estimated tax payments on your dividends (or other capital gains) every quarter or increasing your withholdings from wages to compensate, and you owe too much at the end of the year, you can get hit with penalties and interest.
For most people the quarterly dividends in their brokerage aren't enough to trigger that, but as your savings grows and quarterly dividends become significant they might.
Yeah, certainly seems fake. But I can conceive of someone that's NB, fluid, or something else who is unable/unwilling to admit that to themselves or choosing to remain cis presenting for social reasons deciding to present as a woman due to a micropenis.
But yeah, fake.
Very true. But that's different from not deserving the proceeds from their work.
If I mismanage my money and am completely broke when I hit retirement age that doesn't mean I don't deserve the pension I've been paying into my entire career.
The dude is 81. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect to be able to retire long before that. Entertainers generally don't have pensions, so earnings from their copyrighted material can function like one.
I have no problem with copyrights held by an artist lasting for the life of the creator. But copyrights maintained by corporations or other entities indefinitely, especially after the death of the creator, are bullshit.
The 52-week high is just under $80. That would be intra-day though, maybe it never closed above $65.
