Aching, shaking, breaking, like humans do. You may have heard me in a podcast about cartoons or 90s movies, or seen me in a niche video essay. Who knows where you'll see me next. Quite autistic, and quite chatty about it. [he/him]

looking back on it now curtis sliwa might have missed a golden opportunity by not calling his supporters 'sliwanators'

After tonight's #Survivor49 my takeaway is that somehow this season might have even better autism representation than the previous one, which had a contestant that disclosed.

I know I usually say that Game Changer is the best show on television but Make Some Noise is also the best show on television

Make All Classic Cartoons Free After leaving HBO Max earlier this year, β€˜Looney Tunes’ is a hit on Tubi, the company says, and popular across generations. It should be a model for every classic cartoons trapped in streaming limbo.

literally every interaction any whose line fans have with the official whose line account is basically this, the whose line account being liam in this equation:

this tells me i REALLY need to do a video essay on why Whose Line is inherently autistic media. Because the kind of sarcasm this social media guy wields just against people wanting to know information seems to indicate a complete lack of knowledge of how much of the fanbase is autistic.

The main reason Make Some Noise is taking all of Whose Line’s fans is because dropout’s social media personnel are very nice and the Whose Line production company account acts like anyone asking anything about the show’s future is an affront to god and man.

it's a reminder that our society has eaten itself, and everything new exists in the space between the endless spiral of consumption and the illusion of forward progress.

of course everything can get better. but being in the pit of it all feels so strange.

it's so weird. the commercial is trying to make what it's selling appealing, and yet it has this jarringly bleak undertone to it. thousands of patrons on an endless tandem bike crossing a portal to nothingness, or endlessness, or some nondescript void. ka-ching, i suppose.

the high quality vexes me. you can't have something with that many people standing in the desert blocked in an unsettlingly choreographed fashion and not think that a tarsem or a russell mulcahy is trying to make something stirring regardless of how many people will be bankrupted by its efficiency.

the fact that it lasts sixty seconds and just keeps going, adding in an extremely strange saxophone break, evokes equal parts fever dream and brainwashing fodder. how many full sixy-second ads do you even see anymore? just this and televangelists basically.

it is...far too well-shot and well-produced for the level of swill it is hawking. it feels like equal parts tim&eric song and 90s pink floyd music video. whoever shot this thing gave it this sheen of respectability, this uncanny valley between content and cash-in.

if society lasts another 30 years, which weirdly isn't guaranteed at this point, there will be an attempt to look back at this specific moment in history, and I'm betting the strangest artifact from this decade will be the 'calling all thrillionaires' commercial for fanduel.

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. β€œOkay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

It gets a lot right while also still being a Hollywood film about an autistic savant-turned-assassin. Gets a lot down regarding masking, surprisingly. Affleck did his homework.

i spent so much time curating a circle of friends that i can be myself around and are easy to find kinship with that it didn't immediately dawn on me that so many of them don't drive.
