You should never grade evils, for if one is the worst, then you might be tempted to kinship with the least

I feel like you could write a masters thesis just about the one scene between Dennis Hopper and Dean Stockwell in Blue Velvet. It implies so much without stating anything at all.

Damn, I miss when it was possible to just not like a piece of current media without it having to be a political statement.

The original Legato Bluesummers is such a cool and iconic design. Instantly memorable. This new one looks like an arc villain from Sword Art Online. The worst part is you can see what they're going for, the ghost of Legatto is still there, just trapped in a design that's terrible.

Jeffrey Combs as Weyoun might genuinely be one of the best villain performances in all of media.

Fun fact: I'm sitting here twenty minutes into The Colors Trilogy: Blue. I've kept myself mostly completely blind on these movies outside of knowing they were very good and I would watch them someday. I somehow got the impression these were stylized romance films similar to Wong Kar Wai.

Played a demo on Steam called Forbidden Solitaire. It takes the role of a 90s FMV dungeon crawler with solitaire based mechanics that's really fun, but also has a really interesting Inscryptionesque meta narrative that was just starting to get teased out. The aesthetic goes HARD! Higly reccomend!

Me: Maybe I should give that last rebuild of Evangelion movie another try.
Me, 24 minute in: Wow, we're really trying to give asuka a colonoscopy with this camera aren't we?
Me 30 seconds later: I feel like whoever animated these scenes said hell yeah to the hospital scene in EoE. I'm tapping out.

I can't tell if this is someone who's never seen Trek or someone rage baiting for clicks, but either way, NEWSFLASH ASSHOLE! STAR TREK HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROGRESSIVE! ITS BAKED INTO THE DNA OF THE SHOW!

"In times of war, the law falls silent." Cicero. So is that what we have become? A 24th century Rome driven by nothing other than the certainty that Ceaser can do no wrong?" Holy shit, I forgot how incredible and prescient Deep Space Nine is.

Me playing Lies Of P: man, there's so many cool weapons here, tons of variety, and the ability to fully customize them means I gave so many options!
Me twenty hours into Lies Of P: Whoa, is that a sick ass satanic with a dedicated high risk parry? I'm never using another wepon.

Watching The Maltese Falcon and there's a fat guy named gunman. Very Kojima coded.

Been watching a bunch of noir movies to familiarize myself with the genre, and I'm starting to get a feeling how to define it. It seems noir is when the protagonist is an idiot who thinks he's smart.

LET'S GOOOOO! FINN BALOR FOR CHAMPION IN HIS HOME TOWN NEXT WEEK! IT'S DEFINITELY HAPPENING! THE PRINCE IS BACK!

Je'von Evans is just a pure joy to watch in the ring. The way he moves feels superhuman in a way that feels similar to a young Jeff Hardy. Hope they give him a massive push.

I just told the lady at the bank I need to download money instead of saying withdraw money. I'm not entirely sure what's wrong with me at this point.

Dude, finally getting round to Escape From New York, a SHOCKING blind spot in my life, and the concept of NYC being a toxic apocalyptic wasteland and there just being a grizzled old taxi driver who's seen it all and still runs his taxi is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I bought a Hobonichi Techo planner at the beginning of the year along with some art and Journaling supplies and it's really given me a fresh outlook for the year. Helping to get organized, focused and clarifying my thoughts. Highly recommend it.

How is there not more media set in Kowloon Walled City? It literally sounds like something made up for a Shadowrun game or something, but no, that's just a real historical place that existed.

Watching The Killing by Kubrick and noticed an actor playing a chess playing tough who's his to start a bar fight who seemed interesting. Looked him up and it turns out the guy was an actual wrestler and chess player named Kola Kwariani who would later go on to train Bruno Sanmartino.

Man, the fate franchise is a profoundly stupid series that started it's life as a porn game, encompasses far to much material for anyone to reasonably try to enter the franchise and is primarily held up at this point by a gacha game and people dropping obscene amounts of money on their waifus.

Back on my bullshit with Fear and Hunger: Termina, and i have no idea how intentional this is, but the first time you see the kaiser and he turns to look at you theres a chest on screen, and if you run up and open it the coin flip sound plays right as he turns to look at you.
