I have a loath/hate relationship with creator/social media. Sites like

X, Facebook, and Bluesky are so toxic, I can barely stand to use

them. Still, such platforms can be a good way to connect with others

and find people with similar interests. Or they would be if they

weren't such a mess. Instead, I'm spending more time on nostr which is

more about connection than contention.

I get obsessed by things. Usually, the obsession passes relatively

quickly but it doesn't matter. While I'm in the throws of my

obsession, I dive into so much research. Currently, it's swords and DJ

gear. I can't afford a new sword right now and I doubt I'm ever going

to DJ anything. That doesn't stop me from obsession about them.

With the success of Deadpool, there's been talk of more R-rated movies

in the MCU and Star Wars. My question is "Why?" What does the

inclusion of excessive profanity, nudity, and gore bring to the story?

Star Wars as shown over and over again that mature stories can be told

in the universe without any of the things that would make it

R-rated. Does any of that R-rated nonsense improve the story?
