I dunno why but Brenden Fraser's face makes me laugh extremely hard. Like I look up on Google and the dude's face has me cracking up harder than most comedians.

I’m a bit of hater of Disney films but if there’s one thing classic Disney landed with me on was making their song pieces fun visual spectacles. Always felt satisfying to really engage with that in a way I don’t anything else these movies do.

It’s kinda funny people will boast about being more capable than a hired writer in terms of storytelling decisions but it’s always obvious to me they’d be far more inept if they actually got the same role.

Creggar Resident Evil is kind of interesting to me in that it's intentionally not being like Resident Evil while also not being conventional to what Creggar makes either. It's a lot more setpiece oriented in a way that's like a video game without any mystery in Creggar's style.

One thing I don't think people don't talk about is how ai has shined a new perspective on death of the author. If you advocate for death of the author, how can you earnestly be opposed to ai in the artistic perspective? If we're to suggest that the artist doesn't matter, then

I feel the issue with the concept of "justice" is that people are unsatisfied with the results of someone being held accountable but don't really have a coherent foundation for what punishment would be valid. People are incredibly draconian but not in way that's coherent.

tbh I've never read a comic that's so varied in quality as Deniz Camp's "Assorted Crisis Events." The Hearth and Gig stories are total shit, but the "Temporal Diminishment" and the "Strange Loops" story is goddamn phenomenal. The inconsistency here is oddly fascinating to me.

Never got why people disliked the Road Trip arc in "Something is Killing the Children." A lot of the stories give weight to Erica's trauma and lived experiences, especially the therapy issue despite its obvious preaching. Honestly wish more of the comic had more interpersonal writing like that.

I think the interesting thing people don't talk about is how many different civilizations didn't start writing their own history until many centuries into their existence and it's always important to look at the different periods in which they did start writing about it. The

tbh I feel most people who post about comics on Twitter are very bad at it. Don't really have much to say about anything other than arguing over basic facts or some stupid substanceless glazing of shit without really justifying it.

I gotta say, I feel comics are more digestible for me right now when I don't feel the need to read DC/Marvel shit and am reading a ton of non-cape shit. I feel comic discourse would be so much more enjoyable if more people did this.

I'm generally negative on generative ai but I feel people are way to hostile to the idea of saying anything positive about its output or how specific people use it. If anything the potential for actual quality in my mind should be a red flag about the issues it can cause.

There's a thing called negativity bias that's common for a lot of people but I feel like I go the opposite route and try to produce positivity bias most of the time. Granted certain things I'm very negative of but things that are positive catch my attention more than negativity.

Anyone who's entire argument is a Grok prompt is very unserious. Especially when they try to argue someone is dumb when they're clearly incapable of making an argument without using a very unreliable ai that isn't even really arguing against you coherently.

People who use grok for their entire argument are weirdly condescending and over confident that this is somehow winning their whole argument while somehow being completely unaware of what Grok is actually saying or if it's saying anything relevant to the actual argument.

Half the time I suspect people who make memes on social media do not live in reality or actually go anywhere. Genuinely people on here seem like they don't interact anywhere outside online spaces.

Is there a genre in gaming people are more dumb about than MOBAs? Feels like most people who whine about them as a concept are actually not talking about them in any way that isn’t either extremely insular, ignorant, or bad faith about competitive games in general?

Reading Marvel/DC is weirdly engaging to me even if the stuff I'm reading is bad/mid because it's so interesting to think about this stuff in the broader context of its own canon, the people writing it, and the zeitgeist it functions in. Kinda feels like wrestling in that sense.

Thinking on it, I feel sensationalism often works because people don't want to compare things on a broader scale and only narrow in the claim at face value. Everything becomes more nuanced when your frame of reference actually references something beyond one report.

There's something about corporate imagery that makes me miserable just looking at. Just gives us this pretension of positivity which comes off as so obviously fake when it's clear these companies do not give a shit about you or the general humanity of society.

It's fascinating people nowadays are so dismissive of India's culture considering many scholars and writers in Europe during the 19th century saw their art as high value and there being clear Indian influence in a lot of their writing. Most anti-Indian racists tend to ignore this

I never got the advocacy for gatekeeping because what does that even involve? Acting like a douchebag to random people who don't agree with you or something? How does that actually achieve what you want?

Every medium got the cranky old man who's bitter about the industry despite being hugely important to it. Comics got Alan Moore, Anime got Miyazaki, film has Scorsese, gaming has Newman, wrestling has Bret Hart. Kinda find myself agreeing a lot with Moore and Hart at least.

I'm pretty apathetic about right-wing themes in a lot of artistic works. I think there's some right-wing shit that's so obvious and brazenly bad on its face that it's easy to dismiss such as any film Ben Shapiro is behind, but I don't think Eastwood or Milius are inherently bad.

I think people have a tendency to just accept a narrative without questioning its source or the foundation of that. I can think of MANY such claims where if someone had bothered to investigate the source they'd find the claim they're making to be contentious at best.

It's kinda funny how right-wingers are fearmonger over the increase in Mosques in Britain, but no one points out how minuscule this number is in actuality. Comparatively, The number of Churches in England is roughly 16,500. It's easy to be disingenuous like this when you leave out comparative data.

It's funny people cry about saying insane, racist shit and then complaining when people don't want to engage with them when they get kicked out of a social situation, demanding free speech prevents punishment. You have free speech, but it doesn't mean people have to tolerate you.

It’s kind of interesting how memberberries is used a lot to mock certain ways of thinking but pretty much everyone agrees the joke in context of South Park was actually bad. Felt like they had a great idea and blundered it horribly.

It's kinda funny to think that sequels were dime a dozen in past decades but people will act like making a sequel now after 20 decades is a lack of originality or somehow desperate. Frankly, I think the trends of these contemporary sequels is interesting in the sense that many
