I want to get @allisonpregler.bsky.social to say “the Guardians are dicks” so I can just use that every time I’m talking about #Lanterns instead of saying it myself.

If you look to Box Office Mojo, a leading website for tracking box office data, it will tell you that Coyote vs. Acme is still designated as an “underperformer,” which is why you should never trust anyone who uses a strict formula for these kinds of things.

Serious Talk: Most ads that lean into absurd masculinity for jokes and a hook piss me off and make me want to never give the company money. "ARE YOU A MANLY MAN WHO WANTS TO BE MANLY?!?!" You know what? Fuck you. I won't be moved by a shtick that courts a shade of toxic masculinity even for LULZ.

In the age of Ai, the Gaza Genocide denialists and Luigi, I think about this paragraph a lot.

Excerpt from Ward Churchill's Some People Push Back: On the Justice of Roosting Chickens

Well, really. Let’s get a grip here, shall we? True enough, they were civilians of a sort. But innocent? Gimme a break. They formed a technocratic corps at the very heart of America’s global financial empire – the “mighty engine of profit” to which the military dimension of U.S. policy has always been enslaved – and they did so both willingly and knowingly. Recourse to “ignorance” – a derivative, after all, of the word “ignore” – counts as less than an excuse among this relatively well-educated elite. To the extent that any of them were unaware of the costs and consequences to others of what they were involved in – and in many cases excelling at – it was because of their absolute refusal to see. More likely, it was because they were too busy braying, incessantly and self-importantly, into their cell phones, arranging power lunches and stock transactions, each of which translated, conveniently out of sight, mind and smelling distance, into the starved and rotting flesh of infants. If there was a better, more effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I’d really be interested in hearing about it.
