“The original sin of religion is literalism, the habit of reading texts literally. This is not only an intellectual problem, which has given many a distorted view of the world, but it is also the cause of sectarian conflict and religious violence. Literalism engenders idolatry and aggression, and is the bane of civilization.”

Don't you want a guy in the White House who knows how to play Crazy Taxi instead of a guy who has 34 felony convictions and has been found liable of sexual abuse?

🇺🇸 Floridian Residents are now reporting purple skies over Florida. Weird.

It's so weird to change Penguin's name to Oswald Cobb. Sure Cobbelpot is a bit silly, but plenty of people have silly names in real life. It just lacks self awareness, I mean the guys street name is Penguin, is that realistic?

[Quirk @quirkus23]

Using The Sopranos as a comparison point for The Penguin is insane. These properties have nothing to do with each other outside of featuring the mafia with a fat balding mobster. It's such a shallow and meaningless comparison. It's just a mob show.

My nephew Feyd-Rautha - so much better than Rabban, who was mistreated by the Atreides even the emperor never saw anything like it - my nephew says that they’re giving all the spice away. The atreides are afraid of the fremen. Nobody said that when it was my arrakis, my dune

[Jared Yates Sexton @JYSexton]

Despite what we’ve been told, fascism doesn’t just take over the other violence. It also relies on control of reality and the story of history.

What we’re currently watching is the Right laying the groundwork for an authoritarian shift in reality.

"the 2 queens" is another cancelled project that genuinely hurts me because an adult animated historical epic like this would have been amazing to see

We all deceive ourselves when we want to believe. Melisandre most of all I think. The sword is wrong, she has to know that, light without heat an empty glamor, the sword is wrong, and the false light can only lead us deeper into darkness (Sam AFFC)

Grant Morrison is into the occult and they don't view the gods literally, but rather as metaphors for human experiences and such.

moderator: what do you say to people trapped in our realm by mr melancholy

jd vance: i- what does that, i dont understand

tim walz: look, we gotta get these kids back to the pink opaque

[Quirk @quirkus23]

@Devoted2Mariah_ @thedragonLML @TheGreyWaste Right. I enjoy the show but Dave and Tim were cooking for months with all the Ironborn stuff and rereads. I almost feel like the show derailed things. Not that the contents been bad or anything (and I do enjoy Nettle's presence) I just liked where the train was going.

[Quirk @quirkus23]

I have lost so much interest in the MCU and bringing back RDJ really just shows how gassed and completely directionless they are. Clearly a hail mary to try an salvage a sinking ship. Everyone will of course consume and it will make money, but this shit is vapid imo.

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

Wild stuff going on in Montana right now. Lemme tell you about it.

One of our senators is a guy named Jon Tester who grew up outside of a town called Big Sandy on land that his grandfather homesteaded in 1912.

[Trindade | Comms open @dtrindart]

It took a little more effort than expected, but I'm happy with this piece of one of my favorite characters of ASOIAF, Daemon Blackfyre.

They did him bad, he did nothing wrong.

Elden Ring summed up in one image.

[Quirk @quirkus23]

@thedragonLML @screencrushnews I'm retrospect I could see how you might not want to invite that evil on yourself. I just know SW has a ton of Campbell/myth/symbolism stuff going on and would be cool to hear your analysis.

[Quirk @quirkus23]

@thedragonLML @screencrushnews Ya next to AI I think this is one of the biggest issues in pop culture today and it's literally wrecking discourse. I barely even talk about ASOIAF outside of your discord because it's just not fun. FYI if you made a video about SW on Moon Media I would eat that up.
