Glad to know I’m not the only one who walks away from a Kubrick movie feeling like they just had a conversation with the most boring person on the planet.

That isn’t an incorrect critique of Aronofsky. His shit really doesn’t hold up after the critics stop climbing over each other to laud his obtuse cinematography and incoherent plots as genius.

2·8 months agoYellowjackets is garbage. It’s one of those shows that mistakes debasement and malignancy for character development.

2·8 months agoNo downvotes from me. I don’t believe the show would be as popular as it is if Korean media wasn’t the current du jour.

6·8 months agoLost. I got about halfway through the first season back then until I couldn’t shake the impression that it was a bunch of convoluted horse shit produced by hacks who thought they were bleeding edge. History proved my impression correct.

2·8 months agoIt sucks, really. I prefer playing on original hardware but the collectors market has made that nearly impossible. I’d love to own all my favorite SNES games from my childhood but that is going to cost me around $1200 just for a few titles. That’s almost my mortgage payment for video games.
This is why emulation is such a godsend. It gives enthusiasts access to the game without having to navigate around shitbirds asking $400 for a trash repro copy of Chrono Trigger.

121·9 months agoYeah, I really love people telling me I’m worth less than a “normal” person because my brain works differently so I should be grateful for whatever some capitalist shithead doles out to me.
The girl was a short lived meme back in the mid 00s called Moshzilla.
Yeah, conservatives remind me of all those times I hung out in punk houses watching people eating dumpster dived food and stitch up deep lacerations with fishing line because they couldn’t afford food or medical insurance.
Imagine spending most of your adult life with an affected world-weary detachment from society and beliving it makes you anything but a insufferable juvenile shithead.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why does it seem like many Americans have an arrogant personality trait?English
32·10 months agoAll this shit could be said of every other country in the world. Americans don’t have the market cornered on being a prick.
I watched a Chinese tour group practically destroy a museum exhibit. Germans don’t tip. Some Brits still carry a colonial attitude when it comes to people of color. We had to ban an Indian family from this restaurant I worked at because they thought they could bring the caste system with them on their vacation. In my early twenties, I almost got into fist fight with a Russian guy who didn’t understand why I couldn’t break his $20 with the money in my till.
Go out into the world and actually interact with people instead of painting broad stereotypical strokes on the Internet. You’ll see the capacity for being an asshole isn’t relegated to one nationality or ethnicity.
King’s Field 1 and 2.
No King’s Field, no Demon Souls and basically every other game that has made From a household name.

I remember 25. I still felt alive and didn’t have chronic pain randomly appearing in various parts of my body.
