There's been talk of covering Texas Chainsaw Massacre on bechdelcast this October...

I'm ambivalent on the first film, but the sequel MUST be covered. Looking forward to Chainsawtober in like, March.

Man...

I kinda wish Cameron would just start cranking out low- mid budget movies.

I'd love to see him get some of that Coreman era energy back.

Terminator is like that perfect album by an Indie band right after they get signed and have studio resources for the first time.
The Terminator (1984) Directed by James Cameron starring Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

I knew something was up with the campaign-industrial complex.

Dems are samdbagging so that every election is a coin flip *for a reason*
The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

I've had the weekend to think more about this...

And I'm more mad.

Her argument seems to be that the Palestinians are basically already dead, and it's not only useless, but a waste of political energy to try and fight for them.

Frankly, I think it's disgusting.
It's just... so fucking cynical.

In a sane world, political pressure that threatens such an important election would have affected policy...

But it didn't because the opposition party is more interested in donations than victory.

Natalie is mad at us for failing to be as cynical as she is.

Do you think he has any idea that "waiting for the Dersh endorsement" has been a meme around Cuomo all month?

Meanwhile we're all trying to claim Luigi even though he's not even really ideologically one of ours.
It’s so funny how every time one of these guys ruins their life doing violence for the fascist cause all their heroes are like “actually he’s a trans communist and a federal agent.”

Biden was a bad president and has long been an anchor on the Democratic Party. His being sick does not change that, nor shield him from criticism. If you're interested in seeing hellscapes, you should look into the one he aggressively helped create in Palestine.

Here's my pitch to Tony Gilroy for his next Star Wars show...

Coruscant the day after Endor. The Rebels paperclip a bunch of ISB fucks (maybe Dedra herself) and start preparing to retake the planet.

Have a whole "fall of Berlin" and follow it up with Nuremberg trials.

I'm so torn about this. The official story is that the stoners who came up with 4/20 had no idea it was Hitler's Bday. This is plausible.

Did they create 4/20 to co-opt it as satire? Hippies did that kind of shit.

Were they secretly celebrating the "holiday"? Also plausible.
Why is everyone so happy on Hitlers birthday? Seems sus.

political norms are not just completely useless they are deeply harmful because they always end in the worst people acting with impunity while everyone else goes 'oh my goodness well nothing we can do that would violate the rules that don't exist really'
I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

So much of the dipshit punditry and left-to-right pipeline can be understood as people mistaking being a contrarian as being an intellectual. It's people who found out they could feel special by going against the grain when they were 14 and didn't grow out of that shallow sophistry in their 20s.
