"competent fan of Thor" two tweets ago and bro doesn't even know about Sleipner

1. Norse Gods, not "aliens". You're confusing comics with Feigeslop. Asgard is a relic of ancient times. Pride parades are a part of modern western culture. It wouldn't make any more sense for there to be gay parades in Asgard than for there to be Catholic Churches in Asgard. 2. Are you implying beastility is part of LGBT? Yikes.

@SomeAssHat666 I already knew from your first post that literacy wasn't your strong suit but man, your incapacity for understanding is astonishing.

Not pride parades in my comic about an alien race with magic hammers! What's next, Loki becoming impregnated by a horse?

That's funny, Stephen, given that most modern Marvel, especially with characters like Thor, does read like fanfiction. Between Asgard having pride parades (a canonically patriarchal society, mind you) and Lady Sif getting it going with Beta Ray Bill while Thor is in the next room, I can't tell which is worse. Sorry you had to see "my take", which is a take any competent fan of Thor will have.

Just read fanfiction. Honestly. You'll get more joy out of it and we won't have to see "takes" like this again.

If you're not a Thor fan, it'll be hard for you to grasp how awful this (& a lot modern Thor comics) is. It's like if MJ was giving Paul a BJ while Peter was in another room having fun with a bunch of hookers. Total character assassination of Thor & Sif and zero understanding of their history.

Image is putting out new series after new series. Surely one of them will be up your alley.

The funniest possible outcome for the purist "[x artist] doesn't belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" people would be to induct tons of rappers, pop artists, and R&B singers before opening a dedicated Hip Hop Hall of Fame.

You’d think that at a time, when everyone has a phone in their hand, she could’ve recorded a video of a park full of little children that can’t speak English. She was probably so upset that she forgot. Same thing happened to me that time I saw Bigfoot.

Is Kenny Webster the smartest conservative the Chronicle can get for their op-ed page? Things are rougher in Republican land than I thought.

@HeerJeet @brofromanother @kukukadoo Remakes of 1980s slashers focused on a specific date that came out in 2009 and starred one of the leads from Supernatural

Budget cuts across the board, from parks to libraries, but you can spend $60,000 taxpayer dollars in a Hail Mary to make your failing admin look good? That's an employee's salary. If even a single person loses their job, how can you look them in the eye and ask for reelection?

@redstaroverRNA @BootsRiley Both of those films were coproduced by actually existing revolutionary governments. Once we have one of those in the US then sure, Boots Riley ought to seek their funding.
English
@StAdkison @BootsRiley short answer is film that actively participates in revolutionary struggle not just in content but also in form. "Soy Cuba" and "Battle of Algiers" are probs some of most iconic examples. highly suggest getting into third cinema theory tho

You can call it what you want.
Tho I'm a communist & plenty of communists have loved my music&films, I don't make art 4 communists.
My art has always had the goal of getting ppl- who r not yet communist- in2 orgs &campaigns- to get the working class to engage in class struggle
Harriet Thee Haywood@redstaroverRNA
*deep, heavy, third cinema sigh* i kinda just want everyone — both comrade riley and his critics — to understand that art made in submission to, rather than in defiance of the capitalist mode of production cannot be said to be communist art
English
@redstaroverRNA @BootsRiley What is an example of a revolutionary film production?
English
@BootsRiley that's great & i support but this infantile debate gotta end, asap. you can have a revolutionary message that provokes ppl to revolutionary action and still not have a revolutionary film by virtue of the mode of film production not being revolutionary. this is materialism 101

@tylercstafford I didn't know Sly Cooper was a Minor League mascot

@StAdkison Yes but it would just be recaps of the Quad Cities River Bandits

@evan7257 Does Spindletop connect to the downtown tunnels? I'd like a tower with a different restaurant on every floor, where the highest floors contain the finest dining, all the way down to the basement which would have fast food.
