Felt like I was going insane watching people accept an AI model's explanation for why that same AI model committed a war crime.

The house is alleged to stand beyond poisonous marshes. It is haunted by thresholds. It is bait and trap and prey.

Can confirm Evanston is gone. The north side of Howard is now a crumbling edge over a fathomless pit. Skokie might still exist but how would I tell from this side of the city line

2 Screenshots from the movie "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944): First, a man in a light-colored suit stands with his back to the camera, facing another man in formal attire with glasses, a vest, and a pocket watch chain. They are inside a wood-paneled room with antique furniture and a clock on the wall. The man in formal attire has a serious expression as he listens. The subtitle reads: "Your term of office is over." Second, the man in formal attire now has a smug expression while responding, while the other man remains in the same position. The subtitle reads: "-Is this March 4th? -Practically."

Control revolves around the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), a clandestine U.S. government agency that investigates supernatural Altered World Events (AWEs). These AWEs affect the human collective unconscious and have "paranatural" effects, including the creation of Objects of Power, archetypal items that grant special abilities to their wielders. Objects of Power are connected to the Board, a black, pyramid-shaped entity that exists within the Astral Plane, an alternate dimension. The individual chosen by the Board to wield the Service Weapon, an Object of Power, is considered by default to be the director of the FBC.[20] Control takes place within the Oldest House, a Brutalist skyscraper in New York City that houses the headquarters of the FBC. The Oldest House is a Place of Power with several paranatural characteristics: it resists being noticed by anyone other than FBC members and individuals with an innate sensitivity to the paranatural, its interior is larger than its exterior, and its internal architecture is prone to shifting and rearranging in unpredictable ways. The FBC can stabilize portions of the Oldest House for its use by harnessing nexuses of resonance called Control Points.

The protagonist of Control is Jesse Faden (Courtney Hope), who the Board has chosen as the director of the FBC to replace the recently deceased Zachariah Trench (James McCaffrey). Seventeen years prior, Jesse and her younger brother Dylan (Sean Durrie) were involved in an Altered World Event in their hometown of Ordinary, Maine. After discovering an Object of Power in the form of a slide projector, the two children accidentally unleashed paranatural forces that caused Ordinary's adult population to vanish. Jesse and Dylan were rescued by Polaris, a mysterious telepathic entity. Shortly thereafter, the FBC arrived in Ordinary, capturing Dylan and the slide projector, while Jesse fled. In the present day, Jesse arrives at the Oldest House seeking her brother.

this game is always cited as being inspired by the SCP Foundation but there's a lot of Fringe in it too IMO, and a lot of Twin Peaks though much more so in the other games connected to it

youtu.be/97Q-iSX1fic NEW VIDEO! This time I took a look at comparatively modern kusoge. Final Sword, a game you can, for some reason, play on your Playstation 5.

Everything looks wrong, nothing makes any sense and marriage is difficult. I hope you enjoy my suffering!

do you think you could drink a 12-ounce can of soda of your choosing every day for a week for 76 million dollars? the catch is that during that week, you’re not allowed to travel to columbus, georgia unless you already had plans to or you just want to

but there is just no degree of blatant mockery and criticism that people targeted won't take as affirmation if they want to

i think slapshot is a fantastic movie with one of The strongest endings a movie has ever had and i also think it catastrophically reinforced the culture it tried to criticize

i can't think of a lot of media that draws as clear a gap between "the characters are hateful" and "the narrative is hateful" as slapshot, a movie dripping with homophobic dialogue that's narratively sympathetic to its queer characters and starred famously queer paul newman

my favorite more niche example of this is SLAPSHOT, a wonderful and funny and deeply unpleasant movie about how hockey culture is a blight and all the characters make the people around them unhappy, and for 50 years nearly every beer leaguer on earth has pointed at it and gone HAHA YAAAYYY THAT'S ME

30 years ago Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club accurately predicted that men under late capitalism, empty consumers who had come to think of themselves as β€œthe middle children of history” with no great wars to fight, would eventually prank and shitpost their way into fascism.
