It drives me crazy hearing people talk about stuff like stop motion and creature suits looking fake. The artifice is the point! I’m not going to believe Godzilla is real, but I am going to believe that a lot of very passionate, talented people put their heart and soul into making him real!

One way to stop the Houthi shipping blockade, instead of bombing and killing dozens of Yemeni civilians, would be to end the genocide in Gaza, which is the stated reason the Houthis are disrupting trade in the Suez -- which is off of their shores, not ours, by the way.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires.

There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom.

Dems need to learn this.

If your setting is Ghibli inspired and it isn’t one that comes from the horrors of war and loss and the fragility of living, you’ve not made a Ghibli inspired setting. You’ve made anime cottagecore with a *sprinkle* of orientalism.

Embarrassing to come from NYC where we purportedly have the best public transit in North America and be completely owned by Taiwan

Two moments in music that really scratch an itch for me lately:

- Bad Bunny singing "un poquito un poquito ping ping" on WELTiTA
- the first time fka twigs sings Room of Fools with that growl
