What is your most lukewarm take?

Something that's not super controversial, but you still really stand by it.

You are assuming the corpos didn't just buy the rights. Cause if they did, the creators got paid already.
Why did they buy the rights from the creators, tell me. Go on. Think a little.

Got any of those?

Yeah seems like there is about a 5% loss in sales for new movies and negligible loss for everything else according to that source. Notably the source does not say that piracy increases sales but of course it didn't why would someone read a fucking source before citing it. I mean it's not like the source addresses specifically what questions the source attempts to answer and the results they found in the opening fucking paragraph.

I once made a seafood and butter sauce pizza for a highschool gf. Hated it myself but she still talked about it years after we spit. Pizza and Sandwiches are the peak of human civilization
It’s no coincidence that most pizza shops also sell sangwiches

I don't like puppies. Also unrelated Christmas. I'm a kid's cartoon antagonist ready to happen.
I get that. The idea of Christmas is nice, and I like that it's a day off for me, but it is just a lot of extra stress. I'm not even Christian but there's still just so many societal expectations.

“Brutal honesty” motherfuckers just want to be mean. Also they can’t handle honesty from others at all.
Almost nothing worse than a thin skinned bully. If you can't take it, don't dish it.

Kudos to you, I did intentionally ignore that point for brevity. No point in addressing it if noone was going to followup on it.
It is going to take a lot more piracy, like 500x to make buying the rights not a lucrative investment. So at present it just reduces their gains. In the long term it actually made it so that they stopped buying rights, then they might go back to royalties or something to reduce thier upfront investment. That would actually be good overall for both us and creators as it would increase the chances of the creator making out big early in thier career when something small takes off. Creators themselves are more likely to invest that early money on higher risk projects which will lead to more variety in the overall offerings and more new creators being able to make a living creating. -
Pizza is one of the best food forms we've ever come up with. I don't even care if you use wildly nontraditional toppings, like a chicken vindaloo pizza or a chili dog pizza. Just put the shit you wanna eat on a giant dough, cook it, then cut it up and eat it. Genius.
chicken vindaloo pizza or a chili dog pizza.
Go on, I'm interested...

One of my siblings just... doesn't like pizza. All of the individual components are fine in other dishes, but not together. I don't understand.

Any home that doesn’t have central air conditioning should at least have a dedicated circuit outlet by each window. It’s like home designers are trying to make people sweat.
I moved out of my last shitty apartment because the entire thing was wired to two 15amp fuses. If the Fridge compressor happened to kick on while I was cooking on the electric stove and had like the microwave also going it would blow a fuse. My new apartment has circuit breakers, but things aren't much better. The stove and fridge are on their own circuits. However all of the outlets are on a single breaker. If I try to run the AC in the bedroom at the same time as the living room it trips. It's rage inducing.

I like putting black cardamom in my chai
cardamom is one of the secret ingredients in my chili. I also use cinnamon and whiskey in the recipe.

You can't just make up words like that

The fevered dreams of a madman, for now. But if in some sitcom plot, I ever inherit a pizza place form a long-lost uncle, those will be called the Dave Lister and the Blue Hedgehog respectively (I have to assume Sega is more litigious than the BBC).

I've been doing a lot of batch cooking lately, and come to the conclusion that everything is a soup.
Pizza is just soup on top of bread.

I'm okay with piracy. I think a lot of people feel the need to justify it with phrases like "it's not stealing it's just copying," among others. To me that seems like being in denial about the moral ambiguity of what you're doing. There's so much free media out there you don't need to pirate the stuff that isn't.
Personally I'm okay with being told I'm a thief and am scamming the creators who worked hard on a product. Idc I'm broke, bored, interested in your thing and can steam it in HD from a website instantly. No login, no ads, no worries. I'm a pirate through and through and part of being a pirate is being morally bankrupt lol.
btw if you ever have a Christian hounding you about it tell them "Jesus pirated fish and bread, and you support him" and watch them think through how to still disagree with you (they will never change their opinion) but support jesus no matter what

People have their minds turned from 'learning mode' to 'i am correct' mode wayy too much
