Even if that is something you can't entirely discount because marketing suits really are that cynical when behind closed doors, Chiwetel Ejiofor is a very good actor though.
It’s funny because it was probably a marketing decision to make the protagonist black. It’s no deeper than that. “Yeah like Get Out, this is giving Get Out”
I'm sorry, I didn't realize Israel had now escalated to the "quadruple tap" where they just keep killing and killing as people try desperately to help the wounded
Scientists have used yeast found on a 5,300-year-old mummy to bake "very good" sourdough bread
The yeast was recovered from Ötzi the Iceman, and they believe it could be used to make beer next
@homosmoker@jaujaumanne@BjorkBrodern Whenever I read one of her whiny screeds about Norwegians, I always imagine it's some sort of leftover from when Finland was allied with Nazi-Germany and that some of the ubermensch ideas culturally spilled over.
Kane Parsons comments on Deadline's report that he's working on 'Backrooms 2' and looking for a co-writer
"That [report] seems hallucinated"
(via The Town)
@DrTalosDrTalos True, but Eraserhead is barely mentioned too, and the dinner scene at the end of Backrooms is a very overt reference to it, at least in the Lynchian spectacle sense.
Can you imagine how excited A24 execs were to hear the set they have to pay for is literally just a recreation of the most cost efficient corpo building layout
A key part of morrowind is the story of how the province is being slowly bought out by the merchant clan House Hlaalu and the foreign East Empire Company, and how this is undermining the traditions and stability of the aristocratic government. None of that in Skyrim! How boring!!
🇮🇱⚡️– The Israeli Knesset hosted a forgiveness and solidarity session where Christian delegations asked for forgiveness for not showing enough support to Israel.
@moto_motes The real comedy with the kind of guns = freedom larp is that whenever the government does things that are straight up tyrannical(like executing political protestors on the street) the people who own the most guns are the first to bootlick.
@moto_motes My best friend's wife is like this, presents very feminine but is at heart a turbo-nerd with some obvious autistic traits who struggles to relate to other women and as a result has had a lot nerdy male friends her entire life.
Sheldon Adelson spending 100 million dollars on getting Netanyahu reelected in Israel can't just be handwaived away as some robber baron shtick, the guy is a committed Zionist and uses his power and wealth specifically for that purpose.
As much as I can agree with the old quote that antisemitism is the socialism of fools etc, it's nonetheless funny that certain fractions of the Left fall so far into the theorycel hole that they pretend subjective factors don't have any bearing on real world politics at all.
The "ZOG" narrative is nothing more than an attempt to launder the image of Yankee imperialism as nothing more than the result of another occupying force. It's reactionary drivel with no basis in material reality.
Like the fact that the entirety of the US establishment is on the side of Israel no matter how deranged they are acting can't just be explained by "The capitalists want a bigger piece of desert for themselves", the ideological motivations of the people in power matters.
