Cozy to me is media where the stakes are low, usually the setting is comfortable, and tension tends to be longing, whether in the text or felt by the audience

I won't say horror can't be cozy, but I will say that the things that make things "cozy" are upended by horror elements

Absolutely wild that @commandersterling.bsky.social was ranting this week about how the word"cozy" has become pervasive in video games and I see this at my local library today

Poster at the library's video section advertising "cozy horror" movies; it's a collage of original posters for the films The Fog, Practical Magic, Misery, Werewolves Within, Let the Right One In, Hocus Pocus, Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton version), Scare Me, and An American Werewolf in London.

I hope people who run social media sites don't spend too much time wondering why they aren't trusted, as they punish people for using the site's moderation tools as intended

They thought they'd be greeted as liberators, that American culture actually agrees with them and social liberalism was being imposed on the country before.
When they realize this wasn't actually the case, they'll just try to make everyone agree with them

It's interesting just how much more could be squeezed from just one console over time too

Ah "Fur and Loathing". At some point that show just decided to go down a list of subcultures they thought their audience would find salacious. There was that one, a latex bodysuit ep, multiple doll eps, an abdl ep, I think they did catgirl manor one at one point too

I get people worrying that joy in troubled times feels like tacit endorsement, like over internalizing the "This Is Fine" dog, but making happiness keeps the lights on in the world

There will be damage, of course, and a need for massive reform, but an incredibly self serving government doesn't outlive its head of state

Jessica Cheeri @cheerijessie.bsky.social · 19h

Structuring the country around the idea that everything is to pleasure the head of state doesn't hold up in smaller countries, it won't hold up in one the size of the US long term

If the bet this sort of personalismo government is making is that the US is at a stage where not many people are actually relevant to governance, the military is probably more relevant than before, not less

If this was happening in any other country you'd have journalists and analysts discussing risks of state failure

I'm not going to tell you not to be scared, it's scary times, but there have been trans people do well in more hostile times than this

The tonal shift between early and later Gumby is interesting. Nickelodeon just showed them all together so one day you'd get "Gumby dances with musical instruments" and the next "Tilly the Chicken has to escape the Blockheads' battery cage egg farming operation"

They really ought to award it posthumously, if at all

I swear a big bloc of their obsession with college students just comes down to them being pissed that 19 year olds today aren't as impressed by them as 19 year olds 25-30 years ago were
