Film industry, LEGO, a creature of the left. Elon punished me for my heterodox beliefs, looking for 800 of my closest friends

Ongoing collection I’ve been putting together: Golden Age inspired DC heroes and villains rendered as LEGO figures. The majority are characters who first appeared in the 1930s and 1940s, but I also enjoyed creating versions of modern characters in a pulp adventure style.

@reaction105 Actually now that I think about it I was paid better on that one than on the Marvel stuff too. Working for 13 months straight on the latter was nice though

@reaction105 Leaving the money aside I find these anonymous small budget projects more fulfilling than working on a lot of studio stuff. Money aside I had a better time on a horror movie that cost $400,000 than I did on most Marvel stuff I worked on.

The Ways of the Briar Patch
The Ways of the Briar Patch@SenatorLuma·
one of the strangest subplots in the fallout from cesar chavez being revealed as a monster has been the split between conservatives like greg abbot going: “finally a chance to take on the labor movement” and online conservatives like this guy who are just axiomatically pro-rape
PoIiMath@politicalmath

I'm not exactly a Cesar Chavez booster but there is something about the insta-erasure of anything problematic that unsettles me

@MetaReflexive Can account for what you know already but the back half of the first season is what took it from pretty good meat and potato television to the phenomenon everyone can’t shut up about

@souvikpng_ @itsbasilbasil I wouldn’t call it a good game but it’s compelled me enough to spend hundreds of hours with it over the past year or so

people with unexamined biases who want their military sci-fi to just be tacticool “gritty” sloperator aesthetics in space are really just the chud version of people with unexamined biases who want their fantasy stuff to just be critical role found family D&D

@GasbotW @itsbasilbasil I agree it’s a hodgepodge, but it’s still a hodgepodge with bounds. I can abide some outliers, but in general, I feel like aesthetically you gotta keep the stuff that looks like it came out of the Korean War at the latest. Maybe early Vietnam.

@julianfeeld So funny to commit to a bit so hard they put you on television (the owner works on the Jimmy Kimmel show and they lightheartedly put him on blast about it last year)

@MetaReflexive The basic thrust of the character I’ve perceived is that he probably believes himself to be a feminist but has a definite misogynist streak that comes to the surface under stress (and both seasons occur on some of the worst days of his life)

Capitalist class and idealistic young junior officers don’t even put together a liberal modernizing coup to stabilize aberrant political regimes anymore, they just look at Scott Bessent like this.

@ThatchEffendi like the kids posting this stuff were born after the age of endemic school shootings was inaugurated with Columbine

@ThatchEffendi we’re a society soaked in blood and Kirk was already a clownish figure outside of the true believers, a highly public, graphically violent death caught on video was always gonna spur this into a thing
