Second
Thoughts
A home for personal meditations, critiques of art and literature, politics, sketches, and deconstructions that dive beneath the surface of thought. Experiment with form here, relate with current events, read and talk about a book you’ve never read or perhaps want to read, and criticize something, anything, everything.
Movie Studios Think Your Kids Are Dumb.
“Kids’ movies are just ads now” sounds like a lazy complaint until you actually watch what’s being put in front of them.

Because what Hollywood is creating for children these days is walking a fine line towards the latter and parent’s dollars are the say whether we allow it to continue that route or not.
