The hardest working guild in Karazad- the embalmers. The potent tannins found in the vast peat bogs north of the city are the primary drivers of preservation, but salt and oil also come into play once the cadavers emerge from their long immersions

Now that's how you advertise dungeon synth.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Definitely worth the big screen if you can get out there. We ended up seeing it at imax since Tues is half price and it was cheaper than the average hoyts/event.

They made a gat-dang found family buddy cop comedy out of the Predator franchise and it ended up being one of the best yet. What a time to be alive. I really loved it. Great soundtrack, goopy monsters, kinetic action scenes, didn't lose itself in The Lore, very close to a tight 90. Fantastic.

All of this suddenly makes so much more sense to me

If JCO managed to fatality me that badly I would simply not buy an adset on the platform I own to draw attention to it in the cringiest way possible

The History of the Relentless, Decades-Long Siege on the People of Gaza My first memory of Gaza is an airstrike. My second is an Israeli checkpoint. My third is of frequent demonstrations. And my fourth is of my overcrowded UNRWA school for Palestinian refugees. Gaza i…

@muhammadshehada.bsky.social chronicles the history of the decades-long siege on the people of Gaza.

"I will not die a monster."

Alfred Molina's nuanced performance as Doc Ock in Spider-Man 2 may very well be the chief reason as to why it's my favorite superhero movie.

Half the antagonists from FMA probably fit this bill for me but especially homeboy here.

Reading Weird Fiction in an Age of Fascism Zachary Gillan I have been thinking, for obvious reasons, about living in a world of reactionary politics, and about the political valences of the irreal, and about ARB’s insistence upon the radica…

I did really enjoy the movie, but I agree with the assessment; I feel like he used to love the monsters as both monsters and victims, lately he'd tacked too hard into the latter and it's softened them to a level that borders on the twee.

"Marcus Aurelius wrote a-" okay but did he live a life resulting in a tombstone detailing his perfect breasts, deft hair plucking and harmonious throuple? No? Then I don't care right now, shh.

Professor Mary Beard sits in front of a triptych of photos of Roman art displaying a chariot racer, housewife and young child clutching a scroll

Mary Beard live is such a treat. I'm always going to be a Roman history nerd and she is so perfectly attuned to what I love about it, the normal people, instead of HARD MEN DOING STOICISM AND SHIELD WALLS AND DECISIONS. Failed poets, chariot circuit stars and roguish housewives are more fun by far.

Being Mr Autumn man is a double-edged blade

Three old nuns squatting in their shuttered convent, and pissing off the local church powers that be, is the most punk nun thing I've ever read about.The new pope is from Chicago, where labor has often fought the bosses. If he doesn't come out on the nuns side, he loses all of his Chicago cred.

Whole article is great but extra lol at the David Brooks pull quote about people becoming alienated not by the deliberate actions of modern society but because they read Foucault once in university.

closeup on Kurt Russell in Soldier, face covered in stripes of dark war paint, against a blue background (including a neon blue light on the far left of the frame). caption reads "I'm going to kill them all, sir"

unfortunately this kind of line is always going to hit for me. it's never not satisfying.

spinoff movie with tiger and bird plz

The cover art for Bergfried's ROMANTIK III album, a lady knight stands on the precipice of a cliff facing down various satyrs, cobra-looking dragons, ghastly faces with glowing eyes, lightning clouds and winged monsters

okay I try not to judge anything by its cover but sometimes I pick up an album based on the art and I am justly and rightly rewarded

The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate fuckin' practitioner, dude.

Great double feature to go with the coked-out, hairless

They won't tell you this, but you can watch obscure and esoteric spooky movies outside of October. You can do it year round if you want. It'll make you healthy and strong like an ox.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.
