The biggest different thing is that by necessity any new Homestuck is gonna have to be a semi-nostalgic reflection on the Obama era internet rather than a direct reflection thereof like the original comic.

#Highest2Lowest canโ€™t match the Kurosawa original but gets more interesting the more different it gets. Denzel Washington and Jeffrey Wright are great and the central subway scene might actually surpass High and Lowโ€™s train scene?

Imagine being so wedded to a certain style of horse-race political analysis that you "nothingburger" away the very likely possibility that the current President of the United States *raped children* and is using the vast and powerful apparatus of the government he controls to cover it up.

Everybodyโ€™s gonna learn this lesson the hard way: anything even adjacent to this chan culture dogwhistle shit is deeply unpopular. Like the incels theyโ€™re catering to, you and your brand develop permanent stench from being around any of it.

THREAD Trump calls Alaska โ€œrussiaโ€. As a person who was born and socialised in russia, I tell you what Putin and russia think about having a meeting in Alaska.
It means Putin goes to... russia. Let me explain why. First, you need to know that the "Alaska myth" is essential for russia /1

He is now talking about men in women's sports and "transgender for everyone" for some reason. That's definitely very relevant to a federal takeover of DC police

Trans prisoners in Georgia accuse the state of cruel and unusual...

Mass revolt from queer authors in the UK after a major LGBTQ+ writing prize longlisted a self-proclaimed TERF.

11 authors and 2 judges have withdrawn from the Polari Prize. One of those withdrawals, that of June Thomas, is newly confirmed by our reporter, @evanurquhart.bsky.social.

Jump scare where suddenly the YouTube search bar autofills with Elmo and Skibidi Toilet as recommendations - did they just roll out their AI and does it think my account I've had for 19 years now belongs to a child?

Between a "No Other Land" crew mate filming himself being killed by a settler, to a journalist being killed by airstrikes he was covering minutes earlier, I'm not sure how much more televised Israel's genocide can be

I'm old enough to remember a year or two ago when both "we're not killing journalists that's illegal!" and "We're not bombing *hospitals* for god's sake" were major talking points. Violations of these things now no longer seem to even register.

Iโ€™m actually curious if it might be something you like. For the first half itโ€™s more thriller than horror, and when it does get into more extreme territory, it knows how to end on a cathartic note. Not quite Jordan Peele great, but you see why he was in love with the script.

I mean one of the biggest movies of the year was "Sinners" which was hot and horny, true, but most definitely not white.
