TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 22/09/2026THE Ghost In Shell is more faithful to the art of the manga, but the vibe is off for near-future Cyberpunk. The story is a half-reboot, that doesn't want to dwell on existing story, but leaves gaps for newcomers. I loved Stand Alone Complex and this just doesn't quite scratch that itch... 010
Reposted by TwistedEllipses the babahuck @tylerhuckabee.bsky.social · 23/10/2023when wikipedia launched, the idea that an encyclopedia could be reliably maintained by the public was a joke. now, it's a marvel, a remarkable resource, virtually the only website that remotely delivers on its potential and practically the last pleasant browsing experience on the internet. 5058451262
TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The library was using 3 seperate apps, so they're cutting one of them.

TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I wish streaming could settle for moderate successes, instead of chasing huge hits. They seem wedded to a 'spend big to make big' philosophy.

TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I don't know much about being trans, but I did watch a lot of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. My main takeaway from I Saw The TV Glow is the death of Tara (whose actor cameos) really got to her. The 'pink opaque' is a very differebt animal to my recollections of a show that probably hasn't aged well. 210
TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 19/07/2026English men's football fans are a weird bunch. They are utterly convinced they're going to win, right up until they don't. Then they are the gloomiest fatalists you'll ever see. This was the best result in 60 years, they got to beat France and reignite a rivalry with Argentina and yet...miserable! 100

TwistedEllipses @twistedellipses.bsky.social · 09/06/2026So after I finished East Of Eden, I found out Netflix was doing a miniseries focused on Kathy. This is...risky.
