Question
I'm sick and tired of seeing these thugs terrorize big events and am worried that they will try to interrupt Limp Bizkit's set. My gf (F19) and I (M31) are going to our first Lollapalooza and are concerned about the growing threat around the city

A ½ review of Heretic (2024)

THERE IS NO AUTHENTIC BELIEF! YOU CANNOT BE CONVERTED! They did it, they said the thing. It's amazing how we're still talking about this, the most obnoxious and lazy intellectual recurrence. By all me...

After reporting the news, games media must now grapple with what the call to boycott Xbox means for us. I wrote about why we must and how we can orient games writing towards liberation. Games nor words alone will save us, but we can as individuals express solidarity and possibility in all we do.

I went to Gay Nerd Town, USA and everyone there was literally in love with you. They said it's because you have kind eyes.

Hatred for Boston City Hall is for the weak willed, for those who dare to stand in front of concrete majesty and say "but it doesn't have columns 👶😢" Okay then go to DC, the imperial core of shitty antique revivalism, the metropole of ugly reactionary aesthetic.

The haunting but still optimistic prequel to one of the most critically important cultural events of the 1970s. Not Years of Lead but years of rotating steel teeth on a power saw's chain. The threat of American utility turning on the youth who dare to stand aside it

An extended reflection on Hoop's stellar early work. I feel like we barely broke the surface on this one, but I picked it, so ive bias. We hardly got to even mention his work on the Peter Paul and Mary tour documentary!

As @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social continues their psychic battle against the Jervis Dudley Centre for Xenophilology and Psychogeography (probably), @laborkyle.bsky.social introduces me to the Tobe Hooper's first movie in this new episode of @horrorvanguard.bsky.social

I think if Days of Girlhood had been released two years earlier it would have gotten the hyperpop treatment, with everyone liking it only half ironically and a well received dylan brady remix feat. alice LG and rebecca black or something. Fun destroyed by the culture war yet again smh
