Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 19hThey did put sails on the boat. Which don’t really match the style, but makes it feel like the boat’s going somewhere. And by the time the passengers realize the boat isn’t moving and has been slowly sinking, they’re already committed and might as well see it through. Ahh metaphors. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 09/10/2026If he wasn’t pushing an even less accurate term, I would be at risk of almost agreeing with him. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Perhaps it’s a clever metaphor for the nostalgic paradox of legacy sequels. They are both better because they are old and better because they are new. Maybe the real 3 dimensional chess were the tribbles we assimilated along the way… 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I was already in drama class at the time, so this was a lesson I’d already learned. 050
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 08/10/2026If you ever come stateside, I promise to keep my hyperbole within 2 standard deviations. 040
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Ah yes, the good Batman serial. The one that’s far less racist against the Japanese for not coming out in the middle of WWII. I would find that distracting too. In some ways, that was my first Batman. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I’m gonna headcanon Spock’s reported “death” was one of those “nothing remained of his body, but no one could have survived that blast” situations. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I’m not a fan of TS songs, but that just makes her one of the many, many beloved artists who just don’t click with me. But as far as I can tell, she seems fine as a person. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Probably has much more to do with how I was raised and the layers of social anxiety, but a small part is that autistic stumbling block of needing extra effort to decode it every friggin’ time. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Maybe my personal issue with the f-word itself is that it’s so insanely versatile that every usage has to be examined for context, usage, and inflection to determine if it’s a good thing, a bad thing, a literal thing, or some other variant meaning. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The fire spread from one house to the whole neighborhood, so more people are talking about it. 120
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Today was effing crazy. I’ve lived in other places with big temp swings, but I was just not ready for it here. I don’t even have A/C because I don’t think it’s ever been this hot and the hot season was never this long. 120
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Yeah, Vader didn’t realize how much travel was required for this position. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 04/10/2026There’s a reason they don’t normally invite him on the show. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026You do have to admit that version index of Rise of Skywalker is 12.5% greater than The Last Jedi. I know we’ve been seeing slowed growth, but ever since the 83.33% loss from Return of the Jedi to Phantom Menace, the line has only gone up. 030
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026So my comfort zone is either games that give you room to play at your own pace or are less punishing for not responding quickly/accurately. I just started Spider-man 2, after a long stint of not playing any games. I am enjoying it despite the QTEs. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026For context, I don’t have a lot of time to game and I don’t have great reaction times. I’m the kind of casual gamer who get easily flustered and immediately presses the wrong buttons under pressure. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I have it downloaded, but still haven’t read it yet. What has adulthood done to me? 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I’ve never met a QuickTime event that I like. Maybe I’m forgetting some small one, but for me, it never enhances the cutscene or makes me feel like an active participant. It feels condescending and perfunctory or punishing me for being too ADHD to pay attention and react accordingly. Or both. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Transgenders II: The Spectrum I’m imagining this franchise as a cerebral, psychedelic dreamlike movie that’s slowly unraveling the mysteries of the universe, aka gender theory 101. 122
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Yeah I don’t think you’re alone in the outsider’s assessment. He found his cash cow sweet spot and doesn’t have the self-awareness to improve, nor thr motivation to after he tried and failed. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 01/10/2026YT shorts will occasionally trick me into watching a few, but it can’t sustain the ADHD addiction loop for long before Autism grabs the phone away and gives me a disapproving glare. “We were in the MIDDLE of something.” 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Yeah, I’ll admit to not getting TikTok either. I like following specific creators and choosing the video I will be watching ahead of time. And I prefer longer videos. It’s also why I turn auto play off. 110
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I have to deal with their products for work and they are awful. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Cut to a desk of opened books, newspapers and a corkboard of red strings lit by a flickering lamp, trying to account for that damned 1%. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The dynamic of “the thing that makes you feel secure is also the thing that makes you feel insecure for needing it” is so immediately and deeply relatable to me that I may have to bring it up in therapy. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 30/09/2026GenAI gives you the CEO experience. It lets you feel like someone else did the hard part for you, while you still get the credit for the idea that they should do it. 030
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I’ve been wanting to call this the CEO mindset. The idea that your job is to tell other people to tell other people to do work. And as long as the work is good, you get the credit for creating it, no matter how little input you had. 130
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Yeah, in my household growing up, it was taken as a given that seasons 1 & 2 just do not exist, save for the few exceptions. I still have to remind myself that other fans watched these shows from the beginning and that affected their opinions of the shows. 021
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 28/09/2026That sounds like quitter talk. Carl wouldn’t have given up… for long. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I understand. Thank you for your time. But if you ever reconsider, you know who to call. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I’m not generally attracted to men, but I’m realizing that I may have a type regardless. And Bashir has to be in there somewhere. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I will not read YT comments. I will not write YT comments. I will not read YT comments. I will not write YT comments. I will not read YT comments. I will not write YT comments. Where’s my self-flagellator? 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 26/09/2026No! Don’t give in! Learn from my mistakes! Emphasis on the plural. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Maybe… maybe Silent Hill was the regrets we made along the way. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Side bet for if a returning actor from the new shows reprises their role or plays a new character (à la Peter Weller) first? 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 25/09/2026This is why I switched to contacts as early as possible. I know it’s not for everyone, but if you can wing it, it’s so worth it. 010

Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Basically telling you which one it will favor in the algorithm? Absolutely that’s awful. But also, sounds like the kind of thing that isn’t really verifiable anyway. 000
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Suddenly imagining a surreal horror movie where the bed keeps trying to psychically lure you back from the other side of the house. And tries to push its way through the doorframe to reach you. I think I need coffee. 120
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Oddly enough, this was a year of movies I really liked, but the things i didn’t like are juicer to talk about, even though they didn’t bother me that much. 010
Tak @intra86.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I hope it isn’t too dark to suggest writing in “up on the mast.” 000
