The "Southern" diet is a dogwhistle. Cut that out. It's meant to trigger shame over our history.
Netflix has been throwing 'Hold the Dark' in my face for an entire week. Finally watched it and I have no idea what it is about. I feel like this recommendation is Netflix way of punishing me for paying my bill late last month.
