Godzilla Minus Zero "uses the monster as an avatar for collective wartime guilt, sublimated urges for revenge against those who dropped the bomb, and—finally—losing faith in our institutions’ power to protect us." — @clintworthing.bsky.social, kaiju connoisseur www.rogerebert.com/reviews/godz...

Godzilla Minus Zero review: R-rated sequel follows in the first's cavernous footsteps
“Minus Zero” doesn’t quite reach the miraculous highs of its predecessor, but the old boy still has plenty of bite.

should concatenate these ideas: this too is, imo, a manifestation of the "I get mine, fuck others". and it's a spreading out of something that is gravely concentrated in tech: having no idea, really, literally, of what other professions entail.

Panel 3: Guy 2 calls up to the creepy ghost, “you wanna hoop?” Panel 4: the ghost is outside playing basketball with them. She bricks a shot from the free throw line. Guy 2 says, “that’s H-O-R.”

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

I don't typically write about 9/11 (I don't believe I've done so since the LiveJournal days, when it occurred in the first place) but I was actually thinking about it yesterday - and not because of the usual rigmarole leading up to memorial ceremonies. No, it was because of a pedicure.

A staggering & emotionally compelling read. One thing I keep coming back to is the refusal to call these victims jumpers, the collective rejection of images of them, the anger/sense of betrayal felt about them. That we seem to've been ashamed of them is as horrifying to me as the horror of the day.

It’s important to be clear that the truth value of a subject does not become debatable just because somebody wants to debate. Ether. Wandering wombs. Devils in red heads, the cursed left handed. Flat earth. Phrenology. Humors. Race science. “Debate me bro!” It’s fine for the answer to be: no.
