I'm in the too fancy hotel drinking complimentary nespressos. The doorman greeted me in French, I'm getting a glimpse of a whole new lifestyle.

Miller High Life gonna hit my hand like Mjolnr when I walk in

Going to a late night party wedding, please say a prayer for your boy. I extremely do not have it like I used to have it but maybe I can fake it for one night

Local man goes Criterion Channel mode

The legacy of Boomer Columbus Blue Jackets lives on in his similarly phallic progeny

Extremely 90s pattern with a yellow background and various zany bright colored shapes

Releasing a fan jersey with this design, what happened to shame?

Heartbreaking: The only prominent supplier of fan-made gear for my favorite sports team is kinda corny with it

Shocker, while creating another fucked up looking cyborg:

Brain: Hey, remember that show Joan of Arcadia?

Me: Yeah.

Brain: We never watched a single episode. Don't even really know the premise.

Me: mmhmm

Brain: Just wanted you to know I've still got the name of that show tucked away, in case you ever need it.

Me: thanks

Meanwhile on YouTube..

Three screens arranged horizontally and another larger screen beneath. All showing a flight through a city of spires surrounded by fog

A dog centaur waking up in an orange tinted forest

The head of an avian statue, up close

A multi-faced multi-armed statue surrounded by draped cloth.

Sometimes movies are simply a collection of moving images and sounds

Three animal-headed statues, shrouded in white cloaks, in a blue tinted forest

A white six winged creature soars along the coast. An orange reticle hovers over top

A dog centaur standing against a starry sky

Five images of puppies

Screenshot of Blue Sky posts Person One: The luddites were artisans who didn't want to see their trades turned into low quality, dangerous factory work. luddite/luddism being pejorative is old propaganda created by factory ownerwho did not want them to unionize anown the proceeds of their labor. Not dissimilar to todays situation. Person Two: I was not talking here about the historical luddites. I was talking about luddism, in the contemporary, broader sense of bandwagony, uncritical, moralistic opposition to technological change, not the original movement. There's your clarification, thank you for your summary on these individuals.

Extremely funny exchange here. "🙄 Thanks for the explanation but the propaganda actually suits my worldview better"

There is no way for us to know whether video games are art because I have not gotten around to playing Disco Elysium yet. Seems like this discourse is mostly my fault, thank you and good luck.

Bro, I think I'm gonna have to find a new seer. This dude can't interpret the omens for shit.

Oshii is such a a goofball lol. It's so funny to watch monologues about film history punctuated by slapstick like this

Guy wearing sunglasses. Caption reads "Hey, don't tell me you're going to start using deconstruction..."

Guy wearing sunglasses. Caption reads "...and metafiction and all that postmodern stuff."

Guy wearing sunglasses, now speaking. Caption reads "Sorry, but that seems to be the case."

Sorry pal, you're a character in a live action Oshii flick
