I always thought this summed it up best theonion.com/tubi-ceo-com...

Not even a little satire...

That’s what I thought, but then the conversation became about how I was wrong.

I have a friend who is a Satanist of the “hail myself” variety, not a Flying Spaghetti Monster variety, which is what I assume you’re talking about. But maybe there’s some other hidden layers of nuance which is only available to smug insiders?

I’d far prefer that to a Title Alpha sort.

Every time I browse the library’s physical media selection, it’s like tapping into a madman’s stream of consciousness.

Dewey Decimal or bust. /s

My problem is that if you hard alpha sort, you end up with broken film series, adaptations of Dickens or Austen spread across the map (Christmas Carol vs Muppet Christmas Carol vs Scrooged) and mediums like animation scattered everywhere.

I use a complicated spectrum association system, which takes into account genre, director, release date, publisher, and spine colour to put films nearest to other films like them. In the case of war films, the event chronology is also weighted.

Secondary sort to keep blu-rays grouped together.

Spider-Verse, at your earliest convenience.

Tried this with my cake once…didn’t go to plan.

Yes, but it’s a philosophy which knowingly picked an existing derogatory term with a lot of brand recognition. I don’t know if you can expect the secondary use of the term to claim ownership over the primary use of the term, language being what it is.

Tarantino, who everyone jokes about having a foot fetish because of his films’ lingering shots of women’s feet, just went on a rant where he called Paul Dano the worst actor in the Screen Actors‘ Guild.

Lizza in Part 7:

"So, it turns out she banged the drone"

I’m about 55% shitposting with this but I think there’s a pretty striking echo of history here: what is “local control” but “states rights” about a different sort of property?

In this essay I will discuss the how the omnicause of John Brown the first YIMBY is still marching on…

Give us time Gonzales, we might not have saved the whales, birds, and bees either!
