Trump filed lawsuits over jokes, tweets, and news articles, but not once over any of the countless allegations of child rape. I feel like more people should mention that.

Street bologna is a great shorthand for AI slop.

Look folks gen AI videos are out in the wild so if you weren't already being careful about sharing rage bait videos then now is a great time to start

If you can't trace a video back to a trusted source then I recommend leaving it where it is, like a slice of bologna you found on the street

RIP Peter Watkins. His whole filmography was an incisive stab to the gut. If you've never seen his work, I recommend starting with Punishment Park, an eternally troubling look at the swings of authoritarianism in motion. It's a masterpiece.

A recommendation for the sickos who vibe with slow, atmospheric nonsense, full of imagery that evokes Lovecraft (by way of Fulci and Rollin).

DARK WATERS (1993) is full of the blasphemous gothic, slumbering ancient gods, moldering tombs, desolate cliffsides as the scene of monstrous rituals, etc

their plainly stated goal is to starve forty million people until they get what they want, which is to rip health care away from millions more

that this is too monstrous for most news organizations to tell the truth about does not change the facts
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

I deleted my account, recreated my account, deleted, remade, got banned by BlueSky, got unbanned… You’re probably not following this account. I’m a bit wishy-washy when it comes to social media. I believe I’m back for good. I have a lot to share soon.

Please repost to help folks find me again. πŸ–€

Maybe it’s bc a huge portion of my media consumption is abrasive music/terrible sexploitation movies from the 1970s-80s with titles like β€œTrucker’s Woman” but I don’t get why people need everyone else to think the bad shit they like is Good, Actually. Have the courage to be into what you’re into!

I think it is okay for fiction to be a little blunt at times. Ursula Le Guin could be in your fucking face blunt at times, and its some of her most powerful work. Terry Pratchett is blunt as a sledgehammer.

But you have to have something to say, and it can't be about how important your work is
I always interpreted it to be ambiguous. Sometimes it means boys(children) and sometimes it means boys(adult men), depending on context and tone. It could also be that the Westerosi patriarchy doesn't really differentiate between the two, especially not when used as a pejorative.

Carnival of Souls is kind of a miracle. I wish Herk Harvey had made more films like this, but he made this one and I guess that's more than enough. There is art inside all of us.

Bluesky poobahs keep trying to torture joke tweets about literally anything else into being about people complaining to them on the internet.

First waffles and now the Torture Nexus.

Very much the "How do you do, fellow website users, I will pwn you with dank memes" vibe that Musk often displays.

#NowWatching Back to the Wall (D:Edouard Molinaro, 1958)
"Back to the Wall is in the running as one of the most gorgeous films to look at, let alone best black & white. Buyer beware though of the enchanting French Fatalism that’ll either hook you or let you go."
