Media consumption: Boots on Netflix
Oct. 24th, 2025 08:33 amI pay for a Netflix and sometimes I watch Netflix things. I don't watch as much tv as I used to, and sometimes I am a bit sad about that, but right now I read vast amounts of KU slush so... meh?
I also watch a shitton of nonfiction YouTube but I expect ya'll aren't terribly interested in all the things I learned about King Leopold II of Belgium (from my investigation into Why is Belgian chocolate?) even though there are some very interesting parallels (abuse of language, kind of the "Fake News" of its era) to be drawn (pedophile, paid for sex with very young girls) from the facts I learned (enriching self by abusing his power of position) about his reign and some similarly vile leadership we have today. But enough about that, let's talk Pink Marines 'cause that is what this show is about.
( I am not a Marine and I'm not lgbtqia+ and I'm fucking bad at media analysis. Also, there are spoilers, probably. )
