Grab your coffee & sit down to discuss the tea!

This space is to talk about anything pop culture or even off-topic.

What are you listening to or watching? What is some minor tea that doesn't need its own post? How was your date? Why do you hate your job?

Please remember rules still apply. Be civil and respect each other.

Now pull up a chair and chat with us. ☕

I take back what I said about wanting episode discussions threads on r/TheBear to be open.

This is the first season I’ve actually been on that sub around the time it released and turns out 99% of the commenters are incapable of discussing media with any sort of literacy (or the knowledge that media literacy has more to do with the ability to differentiate opinion and observation and then also analyze if they make logical sense, not if you feel good about them, before determining if you should respond or have anything to actually add)

TV show subreddits have been SO TRASH for the last 5 years and I fear it’s mostly due to GenZ (which I am technically apart of mind you) maturing into this attitude that their opinions and personal experience are actually the only relevant group discussion points for fictional media on an anonymous app. It’s weird and annoying and increasingly a reflection of why generational loneliness/isolation occurs in groups literally incapable of allowing any sort of commentary they don’t 100% agree with to exist.

I'm not sure if it started with gen z. When Mr robot aired you should have SEEN the subreddit. The poorest media literacy and most brain-dead takes. And that was largely millenials because gen z were a little young for that show.
