Them: “You need to stop retreating into millennial nostalgia and listen to new music.”

It's rare to able to say definitively that an artist was the greatest to have ever done it in their particular field.
But Struzan was, no questions asked, the greatest to have ever done it.

I have literally never gotten into a single anime series in my 39 years.

I don’t know whether this is true, but if it is, it is great that we can all picture him doing the stare after his agent calls him and tells him he didn’t get the part.

Like you can maybe make the argument that it has some then-novel flourishes that made it stand out at the time compared to contemporaneous documentaries (big asterisk on using that word here). And it’s an important *artifact* in the history of propaganda. But as a work of art on its own merits? 🤷

I took a “cinema of the 1930s” class in college and I remember watching it after the instructor talked at length about how it was this explosive and compelling work and thinking “…that’s it?”

democrats pretend winning elections is this Herculean task when all they have to do is follow the blueprint of the guy who won so hard they changed the rule to "you can only be president for 8 years"

Step 1: disband ICE
Step 2: give ICE's entire bloated budget to the IRS
Step 3: record white collar crime task force kicking in penthouse doors and macing unresisting billionaires
Step 4: one hundred years of Dem reign

Lots of little QOL improvements over the first game, very fun to play moment to moment, satisfying to move up on all the different progressions, fun to make broken builds, but story-wise… eh.

I’ve beaten Chronos twice but not yet roll credit and spoiler alert: you are absolutely correct.

So the new Shakira song for Zootopia 2, which exists diagetically in the film, includes the lyric "we're turning the floor into a zoo," implying that in the world of the film, which is comprised of talking bipedal animals, they have and understand the concept of a "zoo."
In this essay, etc.

Every democrat should be talking like this. Not the feckless mueller time version of this that we’ve had for years, but actual promises of actual consequences

As long as it goes unpunished we’ll never be free of this

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Me listening to Springsteen: "Well that was some perfectly nice 80's pop-rock. Always like creative instrumentation."
Some people, for some reason: "This is AMERICA! And also SEX! He's turned YEARNING into MUSIC ITSELF! TRANSCENDENCE! Also DENIM is a big part of it somehow!"

It really must be a cultural thing, bc I am extremely not from the tri-state area and I've tried giving Springsteen a shot and it not only doesn't speak to me, I hear people talk about how it *does* speak to them and its like they're speaking a different language, or see colors different than me.
