I really gotta play more minecraft with people who like building stuff. I’m almost done digging out my 64×64 block hole in my minecraft world and when my fiance asked me what I’m gonna build in there when I’m done my brain fucking bluescreened like what do you mean build something?? I dug the hole!! Building is for smart people with good ideas!! I just dig!!
I’m not about to argue the finer points of Southern culture with anyone, because I can accept that I was born and raised in the hot flames of a dumpster fire, but I’ll tell you gotdamned commie Yankees one thing: I’d rather be dead in the hallowed halls of a Cook Out than alive in an In-N-Out
we need to go back to hating tumblr. no more hellsite (affectionate). don’t even think of giving these clowns your money. if i see you with a checkmark next to your name i’m opening fire
*sound of gun cocking* they can be disabled
tumblr’s current business model isn’t profitable and never will be and no amount of scolding from staff blogs or tumblr ad-free pay piggies is gonna fix that. don’t let yourself be guilted into buying merch, badges or ad-free. you’re throwing your money into a bottomless pit while the techbro ghouls running this website laugh about you at their next board meeting while applauding the shmucks coming up with new ideas on how to twitter- or tiktokify the website
“but tumblr needs to make money!!!”
if tumblr really wants its regular user onboard with keeping the website afloat then we should at least demand that they do the bare minimum in keeping the site functional. and right now, they’re not even doing that. every change they’ve made lately has made the website/app worse. i should give my money to tumblr so what—they can make a more intrusive version of tumblr live? remove the chronical dashboard? come up with an even more transphobic way of doing content moderation? yeah, no thanks
This might be harsh but I think those who equate “good character design” to “character I would fuck” and express outright disgust at designs who dared to fall outside their conventional beauty norms should be trapped in the amulet for a thousand years. minimum
Rewatching Truman Show for the first time in a long time, and the detail that’s stuck with me this time is the set design.
The characters drive modern cars and hock modern products, but it’s all presented with a veneer of 1950s wholesome applecheeked Americana. Truman’s life is presented as an escape for the audience from the drudgery of the modern day, and the aesthetic they’ve chosen for this is the post-war economic boom. This is the simple time, the movie says. This is the good time. Doesn’t the modern day suck? Let’s go back and see our friends from the days when life was good.
And it’s a lie. Truman’s life is a lie, and the image of white picket fenced suburbia they’ve presented is a lie. It’s an elaborate construction to recreate a false memory that’s comfortable for advertisers. The movie is a satire, but it’s also a very blatant statement against the nostalgia for a golden age which never existed. It’s a lie. It doesn’t exist.
I don’t know. I’m spitballing. I’m biased because I despise mid-20th century Americana and I naturally treat it with hostility, but it’s very gratifying to see a movie kind of agree with me.
Let me tell you a story.
Earlier in the summer, I went to Florida with my friend. We decided to visit a town nearish to where we were staying called Seaside, as we had heard it was a cute place. What I did not know at the time was that Seaside is the place where they filmed The Truman Show. It was a “master-planned community,” constructed in the 80s to be the perfect beach town.
Seaside, FL
Seahaven
And yes, it really does look Like That. Not just in their tourist-agency photos, in real life it looks like that. Arguably the irl Seaside is even prettier than movie Seahaven, because the the office buildings where Truman works don’t exist; the town is 100% cutesy homes and little shops.
Mark Kelly and Kristen Sinema are both directly referenced by him. For fuck’s sake.
Blue dogs can go straight to hell
It is fucking nuts to me that Qanon idiots will spend all day blogging about secret illuminati groups using warlocks to control government meanwhile oil executives admit to rigging politics on TV while naming their corrupt toadies and nobody bats a fucking eye.
Fucking Hell Mark Kelly… Had fucking hopes for the former astronaut and husband to Gabriel Giffords… Arizona can’t have *one* fucking good person representing us.
So did ocarina of time Link ever get a sex and puberty talk before he was just zapped into being an adult or was he just left to ponder the testosterone puberty butt hair and where Hylian babies come from on his own
Sheik: The flow of time is never ending. I cannot tell you everything now.
Link: Can I ask one question though?
Sheik: Depends on what that question is.
Link: Where do Hylians plant their babies because I haven’t seen a nursery yet
Sheik: What?
Link: Kokiri are planted from seeds from the Deku tree. I haven’t seen any Hylians coming out of seeds?
Sheik: Oh little buddy you might wanna sit down for this one
Zelda: I was Sheik this entire time
Link: …
Zelda: We don’t have to talk about…
Link: You told me you didn’t know what boobs look like, you liar!
Ganondorf: Am I interrupting something here?
Link: No, get her out of the crystal! She knows where the hair is coming from!
Ganondorf: *remembering going through puberty in a tribe of all women*
Ganondorf: You know if I wasn’t so evil I’d have pity on you but I’m just gonna take this with me. *Carries off the crystal with Zelda in it*
Link: Noooo! I don’t know how to clean it! How do you clean it??? There’s so much sweat now!
Zelda: I think I must undo my mistakes. I’m going to send you back to your childhood time to undo all of this.
Link: But… I just learned how to use deodorant. And I beat up the giant pig guy.
Zelda: And I’m very proud of you but you need to go through puberty gradually. This whole thing has been a train wreck for your development. Goodbye.
Link: *zapped back* Aw, man. I never even had time to [REDACTED]
