In a few Kurosawa Kiyoshi movies there's someone working in a "plants and computers" office, sometimes explained, mostly never fully, and I think I want to work in a plants and computers office

Incredibly rare behind the scenes photo that shows how puppeteers animate Bob Hoskins and give him the life-like qualities we associate with the best of his work
Every time an actor gives a performance immersed in a visual effects environment they are chasing what Bob Hoskins accomplished in WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT. Incredible.

if you're 20-30 and your faction isn't frequently discussing this then you need a new faction
You need to know... where is Dagoth Ur? what are Dagoth Ur's plans? who are Dagoth Ur's servants? who is Dagoth Ur? what are Dagoth Ur's powers? what is known about Dagoth Ur's defenses? how can I prepare for battle against Dagoth Ur? who can help?

One more PSL post because I can't resist: Apparently Tori Amos was a pumpkin spice latte innovator in 1994! And specifically contrasted it to the drinks at Starbucks.

My third "31 horror films in 31 days" podcast series begins tomorrow. It's called 31 Murders To Midnight and is available to subscribers of the patreon. I will talk about each film (or tv show or short, sorry) for 31 minutes. There will be five weekly episodes. It's good. patreon.com/sfultra

any definition of 'art' that can't encompass mediocre art, bad art, commercial art, and objectionable art is useless

genuinely stunned to learn that blood knife piece (you know the one) is only from 2021 i feel like i've been seeing people referencing it and having to periodically explain that it's not very good once you read past the title for the last decade

counterpoint: these exact same losers say the exact same thing every time anybody talks back or puts a girl in a video game or whatever so i don't think the liberal urge to performatively flinch at the canned backlash is a useful reflex in 2025
Very, very bad stuff coming from leading right-wingers

everyone is tried of the litfic genre trope of inane and unsolvable mysteries which unfold in an epistolary fashion through rentboy review threads
I want to popularize a term of art for this particular litfic genre trope: the Sad Boner Professor.

It's a novel about a Professor (usually of American Literature). He is Sad. Also, he has a Boner. His boner is inordinately interested in the sexy, sexy student: also, he's sad because: wife.
