In these conversations about THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP and COYOTE VS. ACME the focus should be on how heroic it is for Ketchup Entertainment to step up and try to save these movies that Warner didn’t care for and bring them to audiences when no one else did.

One time I went to a restaurant that served a Rose Lassi, and as a big fan of rose flavour I ordered it, only for the waitress to go “are you sure?” and pull a disgusted face.
Motherfucker it’s on YOUR menu, and it’s not that insane a drink let me have my floral yoghurt in peace

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
![[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihuubdwcftfkvvlnepoaf6pfxqulryfp7ydrydi5fe2pflwz63wgm@jpeg)
