Lunch sketch.

new stuff comes out every day and there's more good old stuff than you could read in a lifetime. you do not need to stan Adverbs Isekai, especially when the author is doing the March of Dimes for nazi shit

Yeah, you'd love it. Lots of quiet contemplation, vast vistas, and Kojima brain genus

Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I’d strike the sun if it insulted me.

🚨🚨ALL TIME CLASSIC ALERT🚨🚨
For a while we had nothing to add about The News: after all, you live here too! Then it hit us: that's the point. You live here too! We discuss how this deep truth exposes the evil of ICE, the idiocy of Dems, and the solidarity of ordinary citizens. You live here too!

yes, but Raimi-style, not French New Extremity style

"63 nintendos is still a lot" is such a good joke

Look, I think people are entitled to like Newsom. Do I think a wild animal with no concept of human behavior would look into his dead eyes and immediately recognize him as a vacant sociopath? Yeah, but men are not animals.

The D*lbert Project — Kaleb Horton It was 2013, I was starting to develop a Twitter following, and I was mad that media people seemed to be having a good time. So I thought I’d use Twitter as a way to freak them out. That was my entire...

Oh nice! I always enjoyed your reviews when I saw them.

i don’t think everyone needs to like every film but the way people refuse to even take the avatar series seriously in any capacity feels so performative in a way no other series has ever been treated, very odd to me

Oh, he's definitely not beyond reproach at all. Defo some big and small criticisms to make, and it's still absolutely a franchise with a core idea coming from that dude, but like... I'm so tired of people not seeing these movies and dusting off the most trite opinions just to say something

Big emotions, big spectacle, sorry we all decided we're too cool for daddy Jim lately but there's at least 4 (extremely predictable) plot beats in this that still made me gasp. The classics work for a reason when played by a master, sorry

New avatar good

Many people have noted that the Primary / Social / Forums / Updates tabs are missing when you do this 👀. You can recreate these manually using the "Multiple Inbox" setup in settings. Basically, tell your inbox to include emails tagged "inbox" and exclude the social / forums / updates.

Still chuckling over Fujimoto solving the trolley problem with the "save the cat" screenwriting book. Biggest brain in comics.

That was always one of my advice to the new writers on the film journal. A lotta pitches about "X says this but it's actually Y" and I would say just write Y then. Don't go fighting windmils.

your brain is incredible

The "Pete Toms" touch here is that you found it boring lmao

Swan Boy "Read it while driving"

"big in the concussion community" is a perfect phrase swanboy.com

and still doing the "what if X met Y" stuff too

man, I can't believe I'm still seeing that dude's name after 10 years

AI slop horrible and bad but also Kaleb was a stone-cold shitposter and I believe in my heart he would have found this one fucking hilarious

I also have advice. Everybody loves reading advice on the computer, so I'll share it: the best thing you can do right now is log off as hard as you can. Go outside, talk to people in real life where it's actually kind of rude to talk about the news, try to actually see the friends you usually just text message. Go for a long drive and turn the phone off while you do it. Get back into your hobbies or pick one and learn it for a while. Watch one of those studio movies that reviews called "wildly miscalculated" and you haven't seen since high school. Play an album you like but find embarrassing. Go to free community events even if they sound stupid. If you take the freeway, try the surface streets. Go to a bad diner and just order some bad coffee because even bad coffee is good coffee. You can't help anybody when you're exhausted and keep posting one million college-educated rewordings of "I would love to be dead right now" on the computer. Walk away from the thing and try out some of those normal things you hear about and if you get bored that's wonderful because we're not supposed to get bored anymore. It turns out boredom is the Cadillac of feelings.

RIP Kaleb Horton

Gonna write a Charles Bukowski poem. I call it "los angeles winter."

whiskey, good

it's the other way

One consistent thing this time of year is that there are crows everywhere. I spend a lot of time thinking about crows. They have the most obnoxious vocalizations of maybe any animal, they’re aesthetically unpleasant and feel like a harbinger of death, and they know when they’re bothering you and they enjoy doing it. Drives me crazy how well they’ve adapted to LA. I saw one just this week going through a garbage can, methodically picking items out of it one by one and tossing them on the ground, looking for foodstuffs. It was making a horrible mess, a mess you’d normally associate with humans. They’re such a pest, and the worst part is you have to respect it. They’re fat and happy and they thrive. They’re annoying in a way that suggests profound intelligence. If they could get around to inventing money, they should get tickets for littering. Treated like equals. I have met crows that should be in jail. There’s one in my neighborhood that seems to have a problem with me personally. They’re my favorite bird.

Revisited this spectacular Kaleb Horton paragraph about crows this morning. "I have met crows that should be in jail" is one of those sentences that's so good you're initially furious you didn't write it yourself before circling back around to just being glad you got to read it.

RIP Kaleb Horton, a guy so much funnier and more literary than the modern writing world deserved. I wish he'd gotten the chance to age into the cranky, loving elder craftsmen that he wrote about.

watching you dildo brain cock suckers play w/ AI shit is like watching a dog paw at one of those puzzle boxes that you put treats inside of

Tell it I say hi and thank it for its service (eating ticks)
