all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

Leonardo DiCaprio as "Bob Ferguson" in the movie One Battle After Another. He is wearing a black beanie, a ratty plaid robe, a grey t-shirt, black sunglasses that cover a lot of his face, is carrying a bag, and has a goatee. He is using a public payphone, and is pointing at his own chest. At this point, he is frantic, angry, and unable to control his emotions, thus hindering him in his quest.

Benicio Del Toro as Sensei Sergio St. Carlos in the movie One Battle After Another. He is wearing a blue Puma tracksuit with white bands going down the arms, has a goatee, and glasses connected with a cord going around the back of his head. He is sitting at the desk in his dojo, surrounded by paperwork and trophies, and is looking off camera, concerned but not rattled. Though he is up against an unimaginable threat to him and his community, he does not seem scared or rattled. He will go on from this scene and present an incredible image of a man who is in full control of himself and his surroundings. Sensei is maximally inspirational. THANK YOU SENSEI!

Yes. This is also what all the demands to show "gratitude" and this obsession with hierarchy is about.

For a long time they were able to engineer and perpetuate absurd expectations of Black silence and/or obeisance.

A lot of their brains broke when POC on social media simply ... did not do this.

Genuinely worried that One Battle After Another has ruined me for all other movies, but then again maybe I just watched two bad movies right after it, not two good movies that I was just incapable of enjoying. Only time will tell

A poster for the Aaron Moorhead/Justin Benson horror romance movie Spring. The poster is mostly a wash of colors, greens and reds and yellows, with two heads, one male, one female, touching at the top, and beneath the silhouette of a woman surrounded by tentacles and crab-leg thingies. Above the two heads is a quote: "PHENOMENAL.

So I went with 31 movies. Luckily, unlike last year’s SpookyFest (The Pope’s Exorcist) I started with a banger:

So I’m faced with a Spooky Month dilemma: pick 31 different horror or horror-adjacent movies, most of which I’ve never seen before, perhaps with a focus on one director (last year it was Mario Bava), or just watch Coppola’s Dracula 29 times and the Blob remake twice?

Me, sweating, at the checkout: Yeah, they're, uh, for my baby? Yeah, for rubbing on this baby I definitely have at home, you know how you've got to rub Put This In Your Ear upon a baby at some point? I'm not going to put it in my ear to feel nice

Hi! We've made the Put This In Your Ear Object. It is the ideal size and shape to put in your ear, feels really nice when you put it in your ear, and can be used to clean out earwax, by putting it in your ear. Just one thing, though. Under NO circumstances should you put this in your ear.
