wrote about one of my favorite matches ever, i'm not the first to write about it and won't be the last, just wanted to get some words out about it. give it a read
i know im a mega nerd whose degree was in intl relations so of course this was something i already knew, but its absolutely insane how many people have been speaking as if biden is a poor wittle baby caught in a hard place and not a zionist himself
further evidence for my working theory about these re-releases going from "yeah own your masters" to a way to commodify nostalgia and ensnare people to keep them mentally aged 10-21 so she doesn't have to evolve as a musician
Taylor Swift on re-recording her old albums: “I’m collecting horcruxes. I’m collecting infinity stones. Gandalf’s voice is in my head every time I put out a new one. For me, it is a movie now”
@IWriteAllDay_
mans really had the GALL to use Black people to talk bout why his movies review poorly and how critics dont know shit
give me a break
i hate it here
@Babystring3
ah yes the cops who killed all those other Black people during his administration are behind bars, no protests happened, and the national guard was never sent out to stop civil unrest
wait.....
@_Zeets
on this message board i used to post on people would frequently say they care about Black people, and then say that every red state needs to be cut off as they cant be saved. it's agonizing to witness time and time again
@big_business_
niggas was mad as hell at kawhi for *checks notes* being upset his teammates and staff didnt believe he was actually hurt and calling him a punk diva
@IWriteAllDay_
niggas rolled up ready to defend james gunn for them weird "jokes" and they boy pratt over essentially a buzzfeed poll
what a strange bunch lmao
@SailorSammy93
i gave a presentation in french class my final semester about titane and those people looked at me like i was insane
trying to say "fucks a car, gets impregnanted, disguises herself as the missing child of someone" in french was more difficult than i thought
@NekiasNBA
i didnt expect "but look at these Black people who said anti semetic things who didnt face consequences, why should meyers" be the hill to see people stand on
fwiw sjax and desean both shoulda faced consequences much like meyers should
yeah we're fucked man. no other way to say it. and next year these people will beg for your vote under the guise of fighting fascism. it'd be comical if it wasn't so sad.
@capybaroness
really appreciate he was convinced to not make a standard detective movie, feel like the narrative they took allowed for that metatextual ending that tied together the entire film, and perhaps even his entire career
@_haaniyah_
i genuinely believed it had to be very bad then watched flash which i find to be one of the worst cape movies ever made, aint no way batgirl worse lmaoo
AND it had a 90 million budget like be for real man
@TylerIAm
it shouldn't after reading the article and seeing they've known each other since she was 18 so this aint all out the blue
but niggas dont read past headlines sooooooo
i've had a lot of thoughts about why people feel the need to justify bad people they like in media. seeing it now with succession, saw it with breaking bad, mad men, the list can go on
do people just truly think protagonist = good person?
you know you guys can like mean characters right. like you don’t have to do mental gymnastics to try and convince everyone that they were the victim all along like you can just like the characters who’s a bad person
you young so i'm not gonna insult you much
but it's either racism or it's not. Reverse racism isn't a thing you idiot. Racism is built on a system of power dynamics ingrained in society, now if you white...ain't much people can do in America to be racist to you. prejudiced maybe
@TheJRRobinson
@trinuvian
Apu was one of the first Indians on TV though. People worldwide watched him and he is understandably a bad stereotype at parts. The doc someone did, did a good job of talkin bout it
@dirtbagqueer
the last person i dated hates jack antonoff more than jets fans hated adam gase, it was astonishing to witness each time she got going on a rant
@PBSImpulse9
my barber back home in memphis try to sell me a pyramid scheme, is a cowboys fan, and thought bill gates started covid
been goin to him for 10+ years and he chop me up good
@_haaniyah_
i often think about stuff like this, i know i sound like a freak but it began with the mad men "i dont think about you at all" meme since its usage is the opposite of the context
most people dont care bout the context of memes and it bothers me especially on that app
The Batman has great acting from everybody but various times throughout the movie pattinson is able to emote non-verbally and shows a range of emotions, makes it even stronger when he uses his words and showcases how much of a maladjusted weirdo he is
@diandrasdiandra
jeremy strong every week brings something new to the table with how he portrays kendall, just silent most the episode as he is wracked with guilt over the fact he knows he wields the power to make his child feel safe or not and he just chooses wrong. pacing like a scared child
@offbeatorbit
season 1 and 2, was just chillin watching a show about my favorite terrible failchildren we all know are terrible people
covid hit and then outta nowhere i gotta see people fighting legit stan wars over shiv, tom, all em
@guymrdth
boy spent the whole of season 3 and 4 trying his hardest to get people to understand barry would not have an actual redemption and was a terrible person who was failed, but still made bad choices along the way
and i still dont know if everybody got it
being mean to Black women on the internet for internet engagement from strangers is probably one of the most pitiful things people do on this hell site
@legotrillermoth
50 years ago was 1973 why do people act as if film from then is some unattainable thing that can't be watched by "normal" people lmaoo
@WrittenByHanna
the game, sister sister, and girlfriends gonna have the timeline hot
the game gon have this shit looking like it does during insecure
im not ready
@DragonflyJonez
i've noticed that's the case with so many things. People attach parts of themselves/their identities to what they like and if you insult/don't like what they like you're insulting *them*
@_haaniyah_
and it'll keep happening no matter how many times this lesson is learned. it's why i'm so against calling people i don't know good, but especially celebs and entertainers. we only know what they want us to know and see from them. we dont know these people at all
@KryzivenTake2
im considering getting an nfl gamepass sub for the offseason just to rewatch his 2018 season, gonna be up there with jordan 88-89 highlights for me
@BackupHangman
the indy crop from 00-08 really was built different and while there are tons of talented individuals now, they aint got the juice like them. aint no new age roddy, punk, joe, styles, daniels, homicide, sara del rey, etc
@NekiasNBA
trying to figure out if the most unrealistic parts of the movie are queen latifah being married to sandler, boban running point for a possession and draining threes, or anthony edwards being a knockdown shooter
this is something ive been stewing on for a week. is the movie in on the joke about how it doesn't really address barbie being a plague on beauty standards? is mattel in on the joke that they will in fact market anything if it helps profits (as seen by the kenough sweater)
Barbie: weird, weird movie. It’s been undersold the degree to which this just feels like a Dadaist postpostmodern ad. “We are ‘self-aware’ about the product because we just want you to engage with the product.” It has things in common with the Grimace Shake and Creepy Burger King
i know capitalism is the answer, but what happened to make people no longer believe the arts are something worth dedicating your life to without the prospect of fame and fortune, to rid themselves of the belief there is seperation between fan and artist. sickining all around
