Can we please, PLEASE, collectively agree that "live action" is not the pinnacle of adaptation? There are some stories and genres that thrive in animation, producing better shows than live action can hope to. Animation is not "lesser than".

If you've made it to the end of this thread, my only request is that you share it with others. So many people suffered because of this denialism, and it frankly burns me up that this dark legacy has been made to disappear without a fuss.

I don't think I've ever talked on Bluesky about why I hate the Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl.

Don't read any further unless you're prepared for uncomfortable truths about the "Nicest Guy in Rock", and his very substantial body count & subsequent cover-up.

Wins for Oppenheimer and Godzilla Minus One mean this is the first time a movie and its sequel both won Oscars the same year.

Your reminder the organization behind those Christian "He Gets Us" ads you'll see during the Super Bowl also gives tens of millions of dollars to the Alliance Defending Freedom, the far-right lawyers who overturned Roe and write most of the anti-trans laws in the country
Non-profit rebranding Jesus for Gen Z also funds hate group
The Servant Foundation, known for its He Gets Us ad campaign, is the main funder for Alliance Defending Freedom

If you joined Bluesky during the Beta, congratulations, you are now officially a Bluesky Elder! You will be assigned a rocking chair, a single cloud to shake a fist at, and a Chesty Gandalf Action Figure and/or Orca pool floatee while supplies last. Enjoy your new, completely inconsequential status!

Fuck. Hate to do this but I'm $180 in the red from bills and need to get to and from a Doctor's appointment today.

If you enjoy my content, streams, etc, I could use a little help today. I get paid next week and should be okay then. Thank you <3
