Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 1hPerhaps anachronistic but I always read Darcy as an autistic man, particularly the way Colin Firth plays him. He has delayed emotional processing, he feels deeply, and he has a painful sense of justice that seems to direct all his attention. I love him for these reasons and because he hates parties 000
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 1hthe more you get upset about your lack of power over another person the more pathetic you seem. This is demonstrable in so many areas of life 1181
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 1hthey may as well be crying and screaming ‘she’s out of my control!!! I can’t even say anything to her that would change her mind’ idk why you would think you have that power over other people. We don’t have the power to make you stfu 1270
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 1h100% of people who call particular women ’whores’ or even imply this meaning in couched terms are incredibly insecure and afraid about their inability to control or have access to these women who demonstrate they have agency over their own lives 37710

Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I’m sure some people would find the film wanky or even a little bit both sidesy but personally I found it to be very clearly making a point, just maybe not the point that people want it to be making if that makes sense 110
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Anyway! Its worth seeing in the cinema, even if you suspect it is not a Film For You 2120
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 12/10/2026In some ways, I feel like it might be more pleasurable? 110
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 12/10/2026The film suddenly made me feel really disappointed that a lot of larger movies don’t attempt to be ambitious with what they ask audiences to do as they are watching, they just attempt to spend the most money on the visuals. Anyway, I felt my brain get a nice little jog which felt really good 2210
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Digger was a really playful piece of cinema! It really reminded me of seeing Tree of Life or a Kubrick or something, a little bit of Gilliam. I really enjoyed it. It was a full cinema meal. It’s so rare as an audience to be asked to…. do some intellectual work 1342

Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 11/10/2026The game tearaway (amazing!) took many years to “make its money back” due to the platform it was made for, but it was designed to use that platform in the best way it could, and it was an excellent game. So in every way that mattered it was a success. Players loved it 1555
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Perhaps, but I am still buying and playing games from years ago, and still buying and watching movies declared ‘unwatchable’ at the time. 100
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 11/10/2026it makes me feel like I’m going mad to pretend like media is going to fkn disappear after a week or a month. even if you think of it in the terms monopolies would like you to it still makes no sense to put “assets” in the bin this way. I wish they would just tax these fuckers 1251
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 11/10/2026just like when games don’t immediately “make line spike” on release, it seems genuinely mad to me to declare any movie a failure *two weeks* after release. it isn’t going to disappear after those two weeks? It isn’t going to stop being on sale or revert back to the ether from which it came??? 9541

Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Anyway, I refuse to give the idea of a protest to the police brutalising innocent people. They are irrelevant. They will not be remembered. They should get out of the way 170
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I think in the UK sometimes there is this temptation to think of a protest as temporary or as an undertaking that is supposed to be hard. The French are not doing that. The protest is part of the joy of being alive 180
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 09/10/2026also what is really cool about this organising to have a party, a meal, a drink, a rave, is that it is a signal that not only do the streets belong to you, you live there and you are not leaving 170
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 09/10/2026have a full three course meal and rave and you have already convinced people the police are pissing on a party that everyone should have 180
Cara Ellison @caraellison.bsky.social · 09/10/2026another thing: the french bring a lot of joy to a protest and honestly, that is the radicalising force. and they bring a full three course meal. and alcohol. the left in France is _prepared_ 180
