Not to get political or anything, but if the US is to make it out of this, every single right wing think tank like The Heritage Foundation and The Federalist Society needs to be dismantled in its entirety, its source of funding seized, and its existence criminalized so as never to take root again.

I've said before that the core storyline of film noir is "an amoral person meets an immoral person and must, reluctantly, make a moral choice." Europe got ravaged by two wars. People wondered if classical morality meant anything in a modern era. Noir said, "Yes, it does."

Hollywood is about to have a great new shorthand for "antihero, tragic hero, or sympathetic villain with former government/military ties." "GRIMBRO was one of our best assets, until DOGE layoffs did what terrorists couldn't. Country turned its back on him, so he turned his back on it."

if you rewatch the 1980s film Revenge of the Nerds you'll notice it was never about changing the system. It was about taking control of the system. The Nerds have the same ill intentions as the jocks just use different methods.

Most Democrats have made it clear they have no interest in leadership and should all resign so real leaders can take their place; tomorrow would be good if itā€™s too late today.

yup it's because the first one is seen as female-coded and the second one is seen as male coded because all of our politics is just various permutations of either misogyny or racism and usually both at the same time

The ā€œAnd Being Appreciated For Doing Soā€ is also a HUGE part of this. Cis men, as a generalization (apologies to all the decent guys out there!) demand to be RECOGNIZED and FAWNED OVER as Heroes, Protectors, Saviours, and Providers, irregardless of the degree to which they actually do those thingsā€¦

Watching a YouTube doc on The La's and I am reminded that "There She Goes" is an absolutely perfect pop song, and that there are immensely successful songwriters who go their entire careers without writing something as good. Lee Mavers was (briefly) Brian Wilson-level genius. youtu.be/CZXLLMbJdZ4

ā€œNobody couldā€™ve told me that the rule of law would be good for Businessā€ - supposedly smart wall st types, by the dozen

I like how "humanity is divided into 'men' and 'sexual property'" registers as an ethical sexual framework to so many conservatives.

YOUR REMINDER THAT THE HANDMAIDā€™S TALE DEPICTED ENTIRELY THINGS THAT WERE ALREADY DONE TO GLOBAL MAJORITY WOMEN The novelty was just that they were being done to white women please, itā€™s not some startling new ground being broken ok

@bitterkarella.bsky.social So any plans to recap the Sinfest 2024 run? Because it still hasn't done an end of the year arc yet.

this attitude ā€”Ā paperwork is for sissies, real wars are won by Big Strong Men ā€”Ā is traditionally a harbinger of ruinous for defeat for everyone who holds it

brain: beastie boys absolutely could've put something down to the Crash Man theme from Mega Man 2 with ease as it would fit their flow style quite well to begin with me: agreed. got anything useful for me? brain: nope! me: that's fine.
