Honestly I'm just a weirdo who likes body horror and cartoons.
Night is Short, Walk on Girl

I dig Yuasa, but it lost me with its shittiness toward the queer student council president; by the time the movie was asking me to Really Believe! in the connection of these two heteros who'd never spoken before, I was actively making jerkoff motions at the screen
fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

Vinland Saga, along with Thich Nhat Hanh, awakened me to nonviolence as a political and ethical philosophy. Exploring it and Hanh’s work again in our disastrous political moment to write this article was sobering—we have a terrible task ahead of us, but such a rich legacy to build upon.
I Have No Enemies: Vinland Saga and the ethics of political nonviolence

#VinlandSaga examines the relationship between nonviolent resistance as an individual moral act and as part of a collective struggle, the power of such acts, and the cost of them

In cartoon news, Tubi just revealed practically the entirety of the classic Warner Bros/Hanna-Barbera/Cartoon Network library is coming to the platform this March.

For those who don't wanna visit the bird site, here's the full list of what's coming.

Sorry, this isn't entirely correct. 😞

I SHOULD have said, "SALTBURN is if everything worked out cool and awesome for The Talented Mr. Ripley AND ALSO it was set in Brideshead Revisited. No, it will not be engaging with the themes of that work either."
Considering that the plot of SALTBURN is "what if actually everything worked out cool and awesome for The Talented Mr. Ripley," I am not shocked to find that Emerald Fennell failed to grasp the thematic weight and context of WUTHERING HEIGHTS. It's kind of her whole thing at this point.

With hosting and licenses, assuming about 20GB transfer a month for a new forum, you're looking at:

- $169/year for forum license
- $50-200/month for hosting (depending)

So that's about $14,616.90, if you want to do things fully above-board.

very proud of having edited this. having my own history with Japanese imperialism made it feel personal, and i was so happy to get to spotlight such a detailed analysis of all the problems with localization that removes the political heart of a work
Solo Leveling’s Adaptation and the Echoes of Anti-Korean Sentiment and Japanese Imperialism

Solo Leveling’s Japanese release removed all references to Korea–a glaring decision when the Jeju Island Arc blatantly parallels Japan’s colonization of Korea.

Loot that drops after defeating me:

-chewed-on straw
-bag of edibles
-fancy collar (rare)
-hand-crocheted cap with sad fuckin lore about wife guy two days from retirement

- a pair of cat ears
- a Costco hotdog
- a New Nelson Japanese to English dictionary
- a ticking timebomb snuck into your inventory
- hi-potion (alcoholic)
- a common Pokemon card
- my burn book (ultra rare drop 5% chance)
- a locked cellphone
Loot that drops after defeating me:

- A sinking feeling in your stomach while you might have killed me, you did not stop me, because you cannot kill hope. I have already touched the lives of those I crossed, giving those a taste of unconditional love and a life worth living, worth fighting for.

At this point Benoit Blanc's husband has to stay a cipher, because everyone will inevitably be disappointed when he doesn't match their very elaborate headcanons (I'm partial to 'former gentleman thief')

this is probably a losing battle but like, the articles you read are written by people, not the website.

people can write good things for websites you don’t like and bad things for websites you enjoy.

lesser known quirk about bluesky: if you follow someone but then block them, it still shows you as following them. unlike the former bird site, you have to unfollow before you block!

I wish they’d fix this and also let us do soft blocks (let me remove followers I very much do not want pls)

I think about this Baldwin quote so often (the larger point is lovely, but this lil bit sticks).

Feels like my 30s has been a repeated thwacking with the knowledge I can be a dipshit and a fuckup, but I needn't stay that way. Then again, I felt the same leaving home. Maybe this is just life?

So, fun fact. New York requires clear communication of price increases through the same channel used for billing, as well as affirmative consent of the price increase.
