it’s a pax event held in quaint old timey america

Huh. Then I'm glad to have entirely missed the discourse concerning Not So Shoujo Love Story, because it seems like that must exist if this is a whole thing.

How many people even had a waterbed??

Who’s vetting ideas anyway. Is the definition of a good idea what will make a billionaire money at everyone else’s expense? Because otherwise I think we have plenty of good ideas. We just lack the resources to execute them.

I always saw the shining city metaphor as a place where everything is fake shiny and whatever doesn't fit is eradicated. I think in part because of how it places America materially above everywhere else rather than making it a part of the world.

And yet… Like I know a cosmetologist who works the tech circuit and the _stories_.

Maybe we can wait in line for gas too like in the 1970s.

I really wonder how many of these assholes actually believe the things they’re saying vs. how many know they’re just making shit up to justify those government contract dollars.

I hope this event is titled “the biggest losers on the Internet are out to prove it to you” because wow.

I know it's a long shot, but I don't suppose there's a chance we'll see more Velveteen audiobooks? For a limited release this seems super unlikely, but I figured I'd ask anyway.

Someone should tell studio execs that if they don’t explain the creatures, this leaves them an opening to release an origin story where Jared Leto plays a particularly beleaguered creature as we learn what inane situation drove it to violence.

This is in the running for my favorite vampire film. It doesn't hurt that I had kind of a crush on Diamondback back in the day either.

It's still great, though the fact that Angela is just careening through life, as teens do, and Jordan has a single brain cell makes a lot of it like "oh girl what are you _doing_?" It's a remarkably accurate and honest show about teens.
