I've spent the last 2 years working on this: (Post)[Culture] @lostincult.co.uk's new pop culture imprint. And I couldn't be more excited to announce our first project: ARCHIVE: Shinya Tsukamoto, a collaboration with, well, Shinya Tsukamoto. I've never been more proud of anything I've ever done.

in 1627 someone published a text called 'Woe to Drunkards' with an honest to goodness Chad knight vs. Virgin fop meme

"In a woodcut on the title-page of 'Woe to Drunkards,' a sermon preached by Samuel Ward, of Ipswich, 1627, the vices of that age are typically contrasted with the virtues of a former one. In the upper compartment we are shown what men were of old by the open Bible, the foot in the stirrup, and the hand grasping the lance; while in the lower, the degeneracy of their descendants is typified by the leg and foot, decorated with a broad silk garter and a large rosette; by cards and dice, and a hand holding at the same time a lighted pipe and a drinking cup with a cockatrice in it. Twenty years afterwards, these types would have been more strictly applicable, with the inscriptions merely transposed."

Just finished reading thru @zetapaul.bsky.social's graphic novel Borderline and y'all... Don't sleep on this. Some of the best character designs I've seen in a long time. Anyone working in comics/video games etc that needs an character/environment artist would be stupid not to reach out imo.

While this film is certainly about Being Trans, I think it's about desire more generally. Fwiw, TSADACM is incredibly indebted to Catching the Big Fish. It is about orgasms and the creative act because they are of a kind. This is zoomer Mulholland Dr.

#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched This year, I wanted to double my reading and movie intake; so far I'm at 24 books and 52 movies, which I'm quite happy with. I've read and seen some great stuff (also some bad stuff)--there's too much stuff!

#lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday The emotion Todd Haynes is able to evoke with dolls is genuinely incredible. Such a haunting, impactful film, and some of the best editing I've seen in a while!

By turning Odysseus into a perfect Catholic subject, Nolan's Odyssey becomes an entertaining but ultimately uninteresting adaptation. There are things I like: the trojan horse as original sin, marking the transition from the world of antiquity to modernity, is a fine take.

I am really enjoying Zero Parades: For Dead Spies. People are comparing it to many things--to me, it is very PKD-coded, Ubik in particular. My favourite conversation so far has been with the acrophobic Renotel employee. Also the soundtrack rips.

I'm going to broach the Mixtape discourse by plugging Chandler Levack's debut I Like Movies (2022), a very Canadian film that I think tackles being a mono-interest, cringy teen with much of the nuance and thoughtfulness people (rightfully, in some cases) accuse the game of lacking
