High school of the Dead. I watched the anime because of that titty/bullet gif. I freaking loved that show. ~~Not so much the piss scene, but still.~~

Nickelback. I don't know why they get so much hate, their music is actually decent
Bluesky and AT proto
The idea that you can just take your account and migrate it to different PDS is awesome.
Gun Control lol
Charlie Kirk would approve... Well, he would now I mean. SCNR
Too soon?
I saw someone say charlie kirk used the getting shot tactic to avoid the question.
Charlie Kirk getting fucking holed
If he's so pro life, why is he dead?
If he was anti-vax why did get a shot?
Brave and contrary.
The ends of a loaf of bread are the best slices
Especially toasted. So much crunch.
Vlogging is not vanity. It’s a special way to capture memories to share with others currently. And to view yourself and others in a time capsule, a stasis where you can view the old world
I want to view my vlogs as an elder and appreciate my memories, even more than I thought I did when I filmed them

Speed Racer (2008)
Uniquely colorful, silly, wholesome, every single one of its frames oozes style and creativity. It's exactly what an animated adaption should aim to be and will forever stand out against the blue and orange, brown and bloom palettes that plagued that era of media.
It's simply so visually exciting and fun.

A little ketamine just as the lsd or shrooms kick in.
what does it feel like
It's difficult to describe if you haven't tried drugs. Maybe a lessening of your ego and a different perspective on your life. The combo of psychedelic and dissociative gives a powerful experience. Best approached with a definite question or two about life for when the psychedelic bit calms down and the introspective bit starts.
But also like Alan Watts says, once you get the message, hang up the phone.

I was an early adopter of No Man's Sky (long before the shift in public perception), and I fucking loved it back then, and love it now as well. But admitting that in public a few years back was tantamount to saying that stapling your child to a rabid badger was a great alternative to hiring a babysitter.

lololololololololol
I actually preferred the early days, I don't like most of the recent updates and I haven't played in probably a year. I can't really explain why except now it feels too busy.

Modern magic. We tricked crystals into thinking by drugging them and zapping them with electricity. Then we used those crystals to trick matricies into hallucinating by forcing them to guess the answer to math questions and smacking them when they get it wrong and kept doing that until they get it right. Ethics and hype aside, it's pretty fucking wild.

Steven Universe. The online fandom was insane. The actual show was incredible.
I think the fandom is so crappy about it because the show had to cut out most of the redemption arc of the big bads because it was prematurely cancelled. If so that’s pretty silly because it came about after the creator stuck up for a lesbian wedding being included.
Yeah, the fandom is… Not great. It’s basically just an American anime, but the online fans are rabid.
It honestly reminds me of the fandom for Undertale. If you only ever play the game, you’ll have a wonderful time. But if you ever do some online searches to try to dig into it further or find people to discuss it with, you’ll quickly discover that the online fandom is extremely toxic.

~~The Force Awakens~~ The Last Jedi was the freshest and most creative star wars movie since Empire and Rian Johnson is a hero for trying to take the franchise in a new direction
I like scenes, many scenes in the movie; the whole movie? Nah, it's not as horrendous as people make it out to be, but still…
I love the whole scene in the throne room. Nice supversion of expectation, great execution.
One of my main gripes with TLJ is that subversion of expectation kind of stops working when you do it like 5-7 times in one movie.
The other main issue is that Cantonica should have had a 15 minute podrace scene instead of the giraffythingies.
This right here is the way. Yeah they had some singular scenes that were very nice. They also had a Casino heist in the middle of a Chase sequence. It was one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. That's that movie in a nutshell some really cool scenes right next to some of the stupidest shit you've ever seen.
Ooh that is one I vehemently disagree with lol. It was a ok movie if it was its own thing, but it wasn't a good star wars movie, it was worse for being in the sequel trilogy as opposed to a stand alone star wars movie, and it was even worse for being the middle of that trilogy. The more context you add the worse it is imo
I've read that it could have been something if the third sequel didn't change direction again. I tend to agree with that, the lack of consistency hurt the sequels a lot - why make a trilogy of narratively connected movies if you can't even manage to get all the directors on the same page? Other than "I like money", of course.
My main gripe with TLJ is that the editing is a total mess. Multiple scenes lose continuity between shots. The most egregious example is the milk scene, which in addition to being gross and unnecessary, was clearly jammed in between two shots meant to be continuous. Rey and Luke start walking down a skinny peninsula, no space cow in sight, then hard cut to space cow and Luke milking it, then hard cut back to the end of the peninsula and Luke setting down his stuff.

Alien, zombie, monster, catastrophe, etc movies and shows. Obviously not all of them, but the genre in general.
Many people complain these shows only work because the characters act stupid, and it's true.
BUT: a) what's the alternative? Not having these shows at all? b) People are stupid even without a catastrophe. What makes you think we suddenly all develop a brain when there's an alien invasion, or zombie outbreak? If Covid showed us anything, than that there's a very large part of the population who'd go out of their way to act against everyone's best interest.
Yes, once we saw how people behaved during the height of the pandemic I knew these people would be throwing themselves at the zombies.
I worked in science, pre-clinical pharma, for 11 years before switching careers. I can fucking assure you that scientists and people really are THAT stupid about shit. Complacency from routines or experience is real as fuck.
