Project Hail Mary co-director Chris Miller on the not-so-secret ingredient behind box office success:
“Young people can sniff cynicism and when a movie was made solely out of a desire to make money. […] They want to see things that were made out of passion and love.”
“Nobody is coming to save you” but your day literally gets better after you consume art made by other people. You hang w friends & you’re no longer suicidal, even if just for a few minutes. They’re lying to you about the significance of community. People are saving you EVERYDAY!
Potential Hot Take:
I like that these kind of games exist
I will put on my propeller hat and play it with my friends for 3-10 hours and never pick it back up and I will enjoy it.
As long as these games are no more than approximately £12 I think they’re a boon to the industry
if they made carrie fat people would realize they're the bully, which was the entire point of the original story. they had to change it to a skinny white girl being bullied for being too pretty and christian so people self insert with carrie, not the bullies
stopped listening to dis/tractible sometime in 2024 bc i wasnt able to listen to it at work anymore. i picked it back up recently and am working on catching up, but dear god. there is /so/ much talk about ai/using ai that its actively hindering my enjoyment 😐
So many people in the replies talking about how they used to fantasize about dying by the hands of their parents when they were children, just so their parents would feel just a little bit of guilt
Yet people still think beating children is just discipline and not abuse.
Tormenting a darkskin Black girl who’s 4 years old and probably autistic by braiding her hair needlessly tight and DRY DETANGLING her hair with a FINE TOOTH COMB and posting it to an audience of sadistic adults so they can fantasize about beating her sure is a choice
@EllixIzSilly also what the fuck are "queer couple spaces". are we talking swinger clubs??? couple therapy??
what spaces are there that require you to be in a relationship to enter and have such a limited capacity that bi couples are "invading" them?
@EllixIzSilly Explain this to me. Give us a list of who is and isn't allowed to go in, and why, and how these rules would be implemented and enforced.
Let's get to the bottom of this, since you're clearly the leading authority in these matters.
@EllixIzSilly like. logically, objectively. how many queer spaces can the guy have been in to speak on bi couples "invading" gay spaces.
all the 18+ venues (night clubs, bars, etc) are alr out the question.
so like. queer cafes? college clubs? pride parades? what are we talking about here 😭
