Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

Same thing with Gilroy and Andor. Feels prescient, but only if you don't understand how little we've actually changed

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Like, the utility pole act and the lights in the stadium flickering were not just random. The power goes out in PR all the time! Because we ran their utilities into the ground! That’s political!
I think one of the best things about Bad Bunny’s performance is that it was so *specific*. It so clearly had a point of view coming from real lived experience and actual emotion, actual heart, not cynical calculation. Just beautiful.

And that's why it was good. This is what they fundamentally don't understand. In wanting everything to pander to them everything gets watered down and worse
