worth remembering, David Lynch directed βfix your hearts or dieβ specifically at transphobes. it wasnβt a generic βno mean people allowedβ statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
They truly want you to believe this shit is inevitable and actually better than human endeavor but the one surefire thing that can stop it is not agreeing to the first two things. Thatβs all! That also means not willingly feeding it. Itβs not difficult to avoid using it!
in case you've never seen it, this is Roger Ebert on The Mummy
What I love about Reddit is that you get these wonderful glimpses into completely sealed epistemic chambers on the same site. If you dropped this screengrab on r/AskHistorians I think it might kill someone. Certainly it would cause several ulcers.
Tubi is such a crazy streaming service. Itβs like if the Criterion Closet was in a gas station
Every day of life under Trump is waking up to a headline like, βWyoming is missingβ
@JDfromscrubslol Had a dream there was an emoji like π― except it was only 60. Some post said "popeyes fries be tasting so good (60)" and I laughed so hard I woke myself up
Thinking about the 60 emoji again

hot take? "AI is destroying internet media" is not the story here, it's "AI can delivers slop better than what's left of internet media post-private equity". AI summaries can't replace a @gamersnexus.bsky.social vid. I stopped reading gaming sites when they fired all the writers I gave a shit about
Could an empire in decline do THIS? *launches deeply unpopular invasion cementing status as lunatic-led pariah state, its not clear what kind of move i was trying to do*
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.
Shang Qinghua (Xiang Fei) looking at the viewers screen. The background is cracked, with various characters (SY, LBH, the System, his parents, and peak lords) looking at him unpleasantly.
Woeful little god! Has anyone ever greeted you with a smile?

βBe kind, be involved, believe in your art,β he said. βAt a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesnβt matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if itβs that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.β
Love this from Guillermo del Toro
Psychically connected for maximum annoyance forever <3
My friend and former roommate is visiting us this weekend and there's a real delightful nostalgia to the fact that we haven't lived together in five years and she still manages to get in the shower in the morning at the exact moment I was getting up to pee
I remember learning about the Hays Code in film school and how it made it so that any amoral protagonist had to meet karmic justice by the end of the film and going βwow, thatβs really sillyβ and then once a week I log online and see people argue that we need stuff like that now or itβs problematic
I think he is not consciously thinking about this but shen yuan sure is
yeah he invents it for the thing shen yuan is already doing, the minute he finds out about it
Unearthed this Andalite concept (based on the book series βAnimorphsβ) from back in 2022, itβs very clunky but you can see how the ideas evolved into the newest iterations!
you can sum up Philadelphia's infrastructure pretty tidily by just pointing out that this person didn't throw away their BIG HOLE sign because they knew they'd need it again
