Exactly this. I don’t care how well spoken you are and how well you can articulate points i agree with. There isn’t a silver tongue in the world that could make me look past a fucking nazi tattoo.

I’m all for redeeming people from shitty ideologies but we don’t have to fucking elect them guys.

So far in my mind it occupies the same cognitive zone as Team America and i have belligerently refused to update that assumption. Flaming head motorcycle guy is just on far side of the dudes rock line from my usual taste (gay soap operas with thematic violence).

I highly recommend growing up with the medics for anyone, because it very clearly disabused me of the Cult of Action / Heroic mythology that the left masturbates over sometimes.

You know what’s fucking cool? Infrastructure. Competency. Efficacy at whatever scale you can impact.

It really is somewhat shocking to see so many people who lay claim to organizing doing such a remarkable job of being as unpleasant as possible to everyone around them

This video essay does SUCH a good job of explaining why I loved Thunderbolts* so much (and why so many blockbusters are empty soulless spectacle). You should watch it (and give @secondwindgroup.com your money)

New episode of The Backdrop up at @secondwindgroup.com!

Where I look at “TRON: Ares” and the literal emptiness of the modern summer blockbuster, where urban landscapes are reduced to big empty LEGO sets to be smashed on film.

Nazi shit is a 1 strike you’re toast thing. You can work for redemption, but you can never under any circumstances be a leader.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

I read The Last American before bed last night. I needed another reason bar my 3 year old to have disturbed sleep. Absolutely nuclear war paranoia period piece, redolent of all of that. A showcase for a later period Mick McMahon, classic 2000AD's most vivid stylist, inching ever more abstract.

There’s a kind of baseline FPS subculture that exists outside of any specific game, and over time the vibe that made me fall in love with Overwatch was terraformed into saminess. I’d argue that popularity and competitiveness in esports doomed it just as much as blizzards long term mismanagement.

It was such a breath of fresh air at first, the cartoony-ness of it and game design ethos made it feel refreshingly friendly. That friendliness contributed to an overall contrast in behavioral toxicity compared to other FPSs. Couple that with the influx of women and it was briefly paradise.

Like I fully understand how frustrating it is being right "too early" but also, we won y'all, the leftist talking points are winning, the libs are against ICE, Donald Trump is posting poop jokes because he's big mad, just enjoy this moment of victory

Themperor Kennedy🐸🏳️‍🌈 @kennedytcooper.bsky.social · 3d

Anyone who is online stoking flames between libs and leftists right now at this moment when the libs and leftists are actually getting along in the streets is either unserious or a bad actor

Not coincidentally, this is my stock line for discussion of literally all religious belief. I am self-reflective enough to identify that I do not have the answers, and am either suspicious or contemptuous of anyone claiming they do.

Q: And are you married?
A: I was married, but I’m not married anymore. Women don't like the vehicle.
