Trying to watch Avatar movies is like watching a Greatest Hits of White American Apologia. Like we're fucking up the natives, we're stealing their land for resources, we're killing the whales, defiling the oceans. And then the fiction comes in when people actually fight back and affect change.

The new kind of hell where you have to ask if the art is AI, or if the artist is so prolific and widely-sampled that AI looks like their art.

anthropic: I have made AI tech nerds: you fucked up a perfectly good computer is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety

“A country that can instantly fund endless wars but debates every dime for healthcare and education doesn't have a budget issue--it has a values issue." A billion dollars a day going towards the war in Iran so far.

"What's up with every Resident Evil protagonist knowing how to pick locks? It can't be that simple--" Grace's phone: "This is the Lockpicking Lawyer and what we have here is a standard police-issue gun case. It features a security keypad lock with a key backup. We're going to use a 3/8th inch bar-"

And for those of us that fall into both fetish and horror? Good luck! 🖤 🫦

I did not expect to be openly weeping to a Gorillaz animated feature in which Murdoc definitely fucked that snake.

centrists love this sort of rhetoric, Hillary Clinton in her book about 2016 complained about the Sanders campaign offering voters a pony and she meant a healthcare system like every other industrialized nation has even bread and water is an unimaginable demand to those who want you to starve

Why does 72F feel so much colder after it's been 40 degrees but feels nice after it's been 83

It really is either you support trans rights or you support Hitler 2.0

They're hoping we'll forget about this in a few months and that we'll resubscribe to Nitro so they can get back their funding for this nonsense. Cancel yours and do not forget about this.

If you're doing callout posts about artists creating fictional taboo content, you may not consider yourself a fascist, but you are one. You are their stupid tool at the bare minimum. The good news is you can stop doing that at any time

Tom Clancy games are the fantastical proposition that the government is actually looking out for its citizens' best interests.

"But Democrats are just as bad--" I am not asking you to be satisfied with our options I just want you to fight AGAINST THE NAZIS please I am begging you

Be genuine

I cast dispel magic by explaining to the audience how the trick is done

Part of me wishes climate change WASN'T so gradual. Like gimme that Day After Tomorrow shit so I can stop running the AC in February

CARTOON OF THE DAY

Political cartoonists are on fire in this era 🔥 If only we had a real government or you know, a much bigger national strike that isn’t on a weekend.

Are there going to be any "classic cars" from the 2000s era forward? I'm sure some $800,000 BMW collector car is going to be mentioned, but I mean like...is anyone EVER going to be like "Ah yes a mid-2000s Ford Focus, a classic worker's transport of the millennium."

so it turns out that the identity verification provder persona, with its well documented links to peter thiel from the epstein files and palintir, is keeping all data of targets and linking them to intelligence databases and watch lists, exactly like you suspected vmfunc.re/blog/persona

Man the problem with time travel plots is that you get to revisit a period where your mentors and heroes made the worst possible facial hair choices imaginable.

Man, when you put it like that, it's really depressing. I distinctly remember being able to play Final Fantasy VI, 7, 8, 9, Chrono Cross, Resident Evils 1, 2, 3, Code Veronica, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and so many more things from like, 1997 to 2000. THREE YEARS.

We've been looking forward to sharing this news for a long time. We're making a graphic novel! The Owl House: The Long-Lived King Written by me and the amazing @mikkicrisostomo.bsky.social Illustrated by the incomparable @dindu99.bsky.social We're so excited to tell a brand new story.

Who put a butthole on these weasels

Nioh 3 is easily my favorite entry in the series so far. I've always been a "casual" fan of Team Ninja games, and the fact that Nioh 3 has apparently learned that games can be GOOD alongside being challenging or difficult without being absolute bullshit is refreshing.

People in a server discussing the valid readings of "Ranma 1/2 is a trans experience" and one person comes in with "Ranma experiences gender euphoria by being endlessly pleased by anything that allows him to one-up Akane, including being a better girl than her."

I touched a purple grave in Nioh 3 and the thing that popped out sat me down like that part of Mystery Skulls where Shiromori woke up Lewis

Hey how much Amrita do you think this is? One, maybe two level ups?

I love learning about folklore from a broad range of cultures, and playing games like Nioh that incorporate thatis fun. However, the wild swerve into "This here's a yokai and there is a deeply Buddhist reason it wants to suck your soul out through your butthole" is always a trip.

hit 'em where it hurts!! 🥰✨

Every edgelord on the internet THINKS they're Rorschach but in reality, you grow up to understand we're all just the Comedian.

The amount of people just now finding out the terrible things we tried to warn them about over and over again for a decade were always true is gonna make me insane.

the epstein files make it abundantly clear that individuals having this degree of wealth is directly the cause of every horrible thing in the world, and any coherent vision of a better future cannot involve billionaires existing. They have to go, be it taxed out of existence or otherwise removed.

it's so cool that everything from the modern mainstreaming of fascism to the trans panic shit to fucking VIDEO GAME MICROTRANSACTIONS can be traced to Pedophile Jeff And His Buddies. Like, oh shit guys there WAS a cabal actively doing everything bad!

And it is even worse than that, because in the words of Miniminuteman Milo, you don't have to make up a shadowy government cabal to hate, you can just hate the actual government. You didn't need to make up bizarre fucking lizard-people facts, the real things were MUCH WORSE, but no action was taken.

You ever feel like a Bloodborne monster, thrust upon a world that you don't understand, that doesn't understand you, and the little creatures only know how to commit atrocities and violence against you and others and you really just want to go back to the stars to get away from them

Man Fallout season 2 could have given me a million guesses as to who was under that helmet and I would never have been right.

I have seen people in some circles commenting about Technology Connections having a "condescending" air, as if presenting the facts and being baffled by why we're not listening to the facts is somehow talking down to someone. I'll be real clear: I think being polite to ignorance is death.

❌porn is evil ✔️this is lowtax's fault

There's...there's like, a non-zero chance ol' Epstein was a furry, isn't there?
