some of my fav pics from marcus desieno's 'no man's land: views from a surveillance state'. he would spend hours searching through live surveillance cam feeds, then photograph stills and process the negatives using salt paper.
really embarrassing how much online millennial meme talk just doesn't work spoken aloud. just heard a guy in his late 20s say "he so smol he only eat one popcorn" to his gf and i kinda wanted to end myself right then and there

if u want to be really favourable to 'backrooms' u could argue its flimsy writing was intentional on a meta level, a distorted and soulless attempt at recreating what narrative should look like, like trying to piece together a story u once heard from memory...

why did no one tell me 'faces of death' features 3 cecile believe songs. i think i saw an umru production credit too?? would've seen it way sooner if i knew this
