#MST3k was influential on me for a number of reasons, but one thing I always like to point to is Joel going, "It's only a movie, you don't have to accept the ending they hand to you."

Like, there's been a lot of tie-in media doing stupid shit on the screen lately, and it's important not to become The Joker about stupid crap like that. "You don't have to accept the (literally anything) they hand to you" is an *extremely* useful idea.

"But it's canon!" If the author wasn't already dead, it would be necessary to kill them.

@CactuarJoe what we talking about

@xerozohar Eh, just generally. I keep seeing stuff that says "(whatever show) has CHANGED THE CANON" and it's like that's cool, Imma ignore that. Good luck tho.
