I genuinely don't know how someone could watch the movie and think that it's trying to *glamorize* the arrested development of the two leads rather than just a tell a story about two people being in that predicament.

Quite the opposite I read the obsession with candy and videotapes as the protag not being comfortable with her own desire and thus channeling it into Safe desires, which are by nature commercialized

I’ve been a mall and library janitor for about ten years. It’s ok to break the invisible wall and say hi to us or “thanks for cleaning those nasty toilets” or a simple “hey, how’s it goin?”The only people who acknowledge us are the elderly and lumpens.

One creative consequence of living among more and more (AI) slop, and it being put side-by-side with well thought out art, is that many people lose the capacity to ask the most basic question of engagement when encountering discomfort:

What if they did it that way on purpose?

@Variety hey fuckhead, what’s up with the scare quotes?

These movie-watchers are mistaken: the story, as they experience it, depends almost entirely on all the elements they think they don't care about; all the more reason for critics to emphasize those elements and to make clear the connection (even the possible misunderstanding).

A plot summary doesn’t tell me anything about whether I’ll enjoy a book or not. Sorry baby I’m married to the form not the content

Jane Schoenbrun's films unlock something deep in my brain that is hard to describe, but it feels like having my ribs cracked open and my heart pulled out and examined then gently put back in. I'm going to be thinking about this one for a long time.

It's actually thematically important in Spider-Man 1 that wresting is real, and Bonesaw is genuinely trying to kill these men.

Had to turn off @rickygervais' Alley Cats because the cats kept showing their support for Palestine Action. I love edgy comedy as much as the next man, but I will NOT be supporting terrorism.

“they should teach media literacy in schools” english class “they should teach students how to spot misinformation” it's english class “they should teach kids critical thinking” its called engish class

I also appreciate Emily Wilson as a woman in a male dominated role, by which I don’t mean translator or classicist or public scholar but rather “curmudgeon.”

The commenters on this vid on TikTok are all misanthropes & jackals. The public executions of the past have just been moved to our phones. Puritanism is spreading like a plague, if you are so scandalized by public kissing you need to stay home so the rest of us can love freely

(3 drinks) sometimes the world is so magnificent that i will weep at the many simple beauties you encounter during a normal day
