Demon Slayer is the number one movie in theaters! KPop Demon Hunters is a cultural phenomenon! We gotta make movies about demons!

(Sir, I think it's more likely that animated action with likeable characters--)

THE KIDS WANT DEMONS.

It was the same for my movie buddy. We've known so long that this is a problem in media. And I don't think it should be off the table but there are better ways to handle it... or just don't do it.

That still seems high. Sony really mismarketed it.

It wasn't fatal for me but I can't disagree with you. When *that person* was killed, it spoiled the vibe for me. Not the whole movie because I still liked what I was watching. It just wasn't as fun anymore

I wish Caught Stealing had found a better tone balance, but I do think it has a story worth experiencing with lots of twists. Just know it's not the story the ads show. It is NOT a fun romp.

There's a lot of tonal whiplash. There are many times where this movie wants to be the fun crime romp the ads promised. Then it remembers it's a Darren Aronofsky film and oops! No more fun.

CAUGHT STEALING is a very good, very cool movie that has been mismarketed to look like a fun, zany comedy.

No spoilers but, speaking as a self declared defender of The Woke Agenda, it violates The Woke Agenda in a key way that many people will not accept and others may see as lazy.

But I wish nothing but kindness on their cute pet pigs. The pigs deserve better.

I saw someone buy a used cabinet with family handprints on them. They sanded off the handprints. I blocked the person.

This isn't some warning. You don't care what I think, nor should you. I just wanna say that it ruined my day and I hope that person gets splinters.

Yeah, it's a weird age gap. Appropriate considering the original source material, Jane Austen's Emma, but only by that measure. And they're not blood relatives so *phew*.

This might be the wrong approach. I'm siding with the trash. They're cleaner than the people in power.

I think trumpy just likes causing chaos. I don't doubt he's compromised by putin, but trump doesn't need it to be The Worst.

If I was a Disney cast member and knew when he was coming, I'd call in to work. If I lost my job, so be it.

A friend of mine had ice called on them. If you voted for trump or chose not to vote at all, FUCK YOU. GO TO HELL.

Eagerness isn't desperation. Sometimes people are just excited about things.

Everything is so shit nowadays, it's okay to be excited about a new friendship, new experience, new connections.

We need to stop punishing people for being enthusiastic about things that excite them.

ICE agents destroy the restaurant and steal food and supplies from Emilianoโ€™s Mexican Restaurant in Pittsburg, PA while carrying out a raid.

These thugs think they are beyond the law.

Pay attention to the escalation of brazenness, the time to address it and stop it is now!

I think they're holding in farts. The wet kind. But the one on the left just looks dead inside.

First, the troops came to LA to attack and disappear the peaceful protesters.

Then, the troops came to DC to attack and disappear the peaceful homeless.

If America falls, it will be because of the people who werenโ€™t paying attention โ€” and didnโ€™t take that damn poem seriously.

I was today years old when I learned "Peggy" is a nickname for "Margaret." I've had decades to realize this while I've always known Bob is the nickname for Robert.

What you say: They only make superhero movies.

What I hear: I refuse to watch independent films, foreign films, or anything outside of my comfort zone.

Facebook is where you go to see people you like and get distracted from them by people you hate.

a pixel art drawing of a girl with a sword Alt: Morrigan crying (from Puzzle Fighter? unsure of the sprite)

saw "Darkstalkers 4" trending and felt MOMENTARY ELATION until I looked again and saw "Darksiders 4" which instantly deflated my hopes and dreams

Photos show ICE, HSI operation Wednesday morning at Lenexa, KCK restaurant Agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement HSI agency conducted an operation at restaurants in Lenexa and Kansas City, Kansas, detaining 7 workers and taking 4 to 5 into custody Wednesday.

ICE is in the KC area again, tearing apart our community.

Yuck. Please enjoy but anything Reeses is poison for me.

That said, I still miss Oreo Coke. Coke Oreos weren't very good though but the Oreo Coke was addictive.

Teen artists portrayed their lives โ€” some adults didn't want to see the full picture "What is it like to be a teen right now?" Young artists explored that question for two different exhibitions of their work this summer. But on the National Mall, their work was deemed too political.

Spoiler: the problem isn't teenagers being too candid and making adults uncomfy. It's because they were doing work at the now disgraced Smithsonian and dared to include Palestine as an issue of concern.

A Jewish teenager was told her work was antisemitic.

Free Palestine.

"Technofascist" is also a good term but might be overloaded or lopsided, at least for me. Still works though.

Workshopping continues.

It won't become a thing but I'm gonna say "technomonster" or something similar instead of "techbro." I hate how the word "bro", a term of familiarity and bonding between males and masc people, has become a pejorative. Musk, Zuck, etc are not bros to anyone. They're monsters.

A perfect thing for a technomonster to do. Instead of having sex, he did... that.

Hey, you know how people are calling the credit cards and payment processors to protest censorship?

Is there a way we can use that tactic to go after israel for committing genocide? What about the trumpists destroying the U.S.?
