wish death upon me

having a debate with a friend-

so Dredd is a great action movie and even though its main character is a literal cop chud fantasy, a main theme of the movie is that the Judges of the megacity are a deeply flawed and fucked up org full of cold blooded murderers and opportunists, and dredd himself is only a partial exception. the villains are very clearly shown to be psychopaths who are AT LEAST as bad as the judges, and the collateral damage to civilians from doing a war in a compact apartment complex is a central focus of the movie. my q is, is Dredd copaganda in the sense we generally use that term? it is, by definition of having a super-cop as its protagonist, but imo there's more artistic value to it than, say, your average network cop drama

this is awful, pls delete

i've been playing a ton of Risk of Rain 2 since gearbox fixed it, and paying way more attention to the music in the game. it's absolutely sublime, Chris Christodoulou's soundtrack is frighteningly perfect for the game and i hope to christ he isn't a fascist b/c the music is perfection and i need someone to admire

i remember reading here about an alternative theory of evolution that was pretty compelling, where they state that organisms evolve rapidly over a very short time inbetween incredibly long periods of stagnation, and how thats contrary too the bourgeois narrative of slow gradual change (ie reformism). if someone could link that author I'd appreciate it

it makes you almost, keyword ALMOST, miss F.D.R. til his abhorrent racism and approval of nukes and suckdem defense of capital sober up your mind again

my only real issue with it is the whiplash editing, like every episode ends so goddamn abruptly and so do a lot of scenes. its like they're just trying to get through the show as quickly as possible, like they're annoyed they even have to do it. but then some scenes go on for way too long and are too boring like wtf

i wouldn't give the piggies that much credit tbh

the image of animal meat blanketing the entire highway really sells how vast and fucked up the meat industry is...just one truck spilled that much flesh. and that plow is just pushing it all around

i've played A LOT of cod zombies and imo the narrative in that specific gamemode is far better than the blind military worship of the campaign and MP. especially in the newer games since the Nazi party member is long dead and so are the "OG squad" who accepted and even liked him after their Marvel-ass time travel adventures.

point is, zombies is generally pretty good, but if they bring back the nazi then

i explained basically the same thing to some of my lib friends earlier and they couldn't grasp it a couple of them admitted the trial was purely political theater, but that was as far as we got

today i was told that the new term for "kiss-ass" in the corporate sense, is "glazing"

i mean his dad was an abusive shithead and a self-proclaimed capitalist so it seems the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree

for real though i don't understand people who like just chomping into huge slabs of meat like this. the bread and the other fillings are part of the sandwich experience! if you want a huge hunk of shit go eat a steak or something, jesus

i just watched Furiosa, and there's clearly a lot of practical stuff in it, just not at the same level as Fury Road. in certain scenes the CGI is distractingly obvious, but comparing it to disney's corporate slop is insulting to the movie imo

my coworker's kid had a similar experience and god damn my faith in the amerikkkan education system is shattered because of it

wow so streamers aren't the vanguard of the revolution?? who would've thunk!! this is a silly thing to be dwelling on tbh, just don't give """content creators""" any attention whatsoever, i promise you your life will be better off for it

i have better things to be doing with my time

no you don't because you're still here crying

this just reminded me that I never beat TOTK lol. I loved all the new mechanics and the depths are fun to fuck around in but it all felt more like a "remix" of BOTW instead of a whole new game. the big thing that pissed me off was how so many of the treasures and sidequest rewards are just armors from other Zelda games that don't have any stat bonuses or any benefit whatsoever apart from "WOAH THATS FROM OTHER GAME " like that shit turned me off from delving into side content after a certain point. i don't want emo wolf link's dirty t-shirt, I want good useful shit for THIS game goddammit!
