can’t tell whether puzzle games are easier now or if i was just a child. just beat cocoon and i feel like it ended at 1/4th of the complexity of your average flash game from 2010.
My brother just handed me the scariest beer I’ve ever seen. Nothing on the label. Was at the very back of the cooler. Guy at the shop didn’t know anything about it. 12% abv. This is a creepypasta beverage
blade runner 2049 is so interesting as a movie with massive cultural relevance that very few people saw. its imagery is extremely resonant to male loneliness and incel culture but the movie refuses to be about that (or anything) in any meaningful way. it’s like the anti-avatar.
@FOURMANAFOREVER but yeah the whole thing feels uglier than that because not only is it lying to you about saying something about modern porn-addict loneliness, it’s also courting that audience directly.
@FOURMANAFOREVER interesting, i‘ll read the book now. but yeah it’s incredibly thin. gestures at meaning, purports to be important, and in the end is all the glam of refn without any of the pathos (bc needs to be sellable). i mean it is literally aping drive 1:1 so the comparison makes itself lol
Jeremy: It's a podcast Mark. It's hip.
Mark: Sorry Jez, but I don't think I'll be listening to "Red Scare"
Mark VO: I think I would do pretty good in a Red Scare. I'd name names and shoot to the top. Ostracizing all my friends? I'm already an expert at that.
i’ll admit that i used to not be a fan of martin scorsece at all. but then i found out he directed a bunch of movies and i watched them and a lot of them are really great
