Yes, exactly this. It’s funny how Melville’s descriptions of the whales make them so majestic and relatable and full of personality even as it’s a book about whaling. I ended up reading scientific books on whales as supplementary reading.

I just read Moby Dick for the first time this year so I’m absolutely interested!

None of this should mean you shouldn't take them seriously as a threat to our existence and way of life. But they aren't the overwhelming dark empire that has a chokehold on ever aspect of life they want you to think they are. They're a bunch of power mad idiots hoping the ride never stops.

Their gestapo gets run out of neighborhoods by angry citizens with cameras, they lose battles in court constantly, states have already taken steps to protect their citizens' rights. And they only get less popular. with more people aware and upset at them by the day.

It's easy to give into panic and there IS a ton of things to be afraid of right now and in the future

But what I am holding onto is that the truth of the matter is that the current regime is incredibly unpopular and relying on projecting the image of overwhelming power because they don't have it

If people don’t give up I still have some hope. We outnumber the people who like this administration. And even those who like it, most of them aren’t willing to do the dirty in person work it would take for a full authoritarian state. That’s why they’re controlling the greedy spineless execs instead

This. We can’t let this stand. If we do, it continues.

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated.

Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms.

Collective boycott.

Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

This one hurts. He was a good person as well as a good actor, one of my mom’s favorites, and I may have nursed a tiny crush on him too. What a life and body of work, though!

battle doomscrolling by posting five small pleasures in life:

1. the way toddlers run- their knees haven’t developed yet.

2. Hot chocolate.

3. When the vibes at the TTRPG are just right.

4. Moments of connection between strangers.

5. When the cat could’ve sat anywhere but they chose YOU

I actually have seen Blood on Satan‘s Claw - I liked it enough that I left it on my tubi list to rewatch! I’ll see if I can find the others! Thanks!

Any particularly good folk horror you’ve seen lately? I do sort of have a list from that giant folk horror documentary that came out a few years ago but I also like personal recommendations!

Thank you @getmeanotherpod.bsky.social for making it worth my while to watch “Short Night of the Glass Dolls.” I was laughing so hard listening to your commentary. The weird tie, “normcore giallo”, the text vs the subtext, @weirdegg.bsky.social being driven slowly mad. Fantastic stuff.

It could end up in one of two series - 1. International Rom Coms 2. Fairytales and Fantasy.

Every Rom Com Podcast @everyromcom.bsky.social · Sep 1

We certainly have no issue with that in our house! I was looking at lists of top grossing rom coms internationally once and came upon a movie called Mermaid from China which ranked #1. Lots of tone-mixing there. Someday we’ll cover it on the show!
