Sorry for the low quality doodle, I just really needed to get this idea out

[godlessondheimite]

In 2026, the chicest thing a gay actor can do is never explicitly come out as gay but also make it abundantly clear that he is. Coming out is too modern. Staying closeted is too old fashioned. But this method merges contemporary freedom with Old Hollywood glamour and allure, and it weeds out the dumbest people who truly don’t get it. I call it the Pascal Method.

Taylor Swift does this

[godlessondheimite]

no she doesn’t

You clearly don't go here or to queer history and signaling, or both, enough to have this conversation and I'm not going to explain it to you. You could have asked questions, you could have done even a modicum of research. You didn't and you made yourself look ignorant. Goodbye.

"The Exit Is A Lie (Maybe)" (TOV)

Pictogram/Exit Sign for "The Oldest View" by Kane Pixels. Made in GIMP. I reused parts of the previous pictogram.

What can I say - when I had made the previous piece, I spent some time thinking about it and remembered one of the final scenes in TOV3 The Rolling Giant. I just wanted to finish and prepare the post for the previous piece, but the thought was insistent and well, I had already done most of the legwork anyways. So I made this version of the pictogram/exit sign as well.

Bit less like a traditional exit sign and more of an art piece or even movie poster mock up than the last one. I like it just as much as the first one. It is simple, the green-and-white kinda fit with the grey-and-white of some scenes in the series, and it is a very simple depiction of a scene in TOV3.

(And yes, the title is a Portal reference. I dunno why, but the idea came to me immediately when I was thinking of a title and it just fit for some reason.)

(tbh I already have an idea of making a crossed-out staircase sign with Wyatt next to it; this style of art is just so much fun to tinker around with)

Always bear in mind that there is absolutely no legitimate evidence that Luigi was actually the one who killed the insurance company guy.

[theconcealedweapon]

Of course he wasn't. He was at a party with me that day.

[tiny-space-whale]

No but like literally, actually. All bits aside.

He didn't do it.

The cops very clearly planted evidence on him because they had to make an arrest because all eyes were on them and whoever actually did the deed was making them look stupid.

Why would the real killer hero have kept the weapon on his person and traveled two states over while carrying it and a manifesto in his bag, conveniently turning the crime into a federal matter? The same guy whose bag they found in a park, filled with monopoly money? Why did the police turn off their bodycams, take Luigi's stuff, drive a block away, turn their bodycams back on, go back into the restaurant, and then arrest him?

From the moment of his arrest, even left-of-center media has been presuming his guilt without examining anything (e.g. calling him "the killer" instead of "alleged" or "accused") and then when I say he didn't do it, the nearest person chimes in with some quip that tells me they think he did do it but should go free anyway. Don't get me wrong, I would have the same attitude if he had done it. But he didn't. It makes me feel like the only sane person in the world, even among my staunchly leftist friends.

A reminder for those who need it

[angry-eevee]

when people defend the “Cis white guy is default” thing like “He’s meant to be an everyman we can all relate to and project on!” kindly remind them the largest ethnic group in the WORLD is Han Chinese and the highest gender percentage fluctuates so if you want an ACTUAL  “default” you want a 40 year old chinese person whose gender changes from year to year.

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

Just want to say that everyone trying to act “woke” about the Backrooms movie are in fact being very unwoke and lacking media literacy.

It’s the fucking Backrooms. It’s a stupid little internet horror concept that got turned into a movie. It’s just a fictional story with no intention to serve as any kind of political commentary, so stop projecting your own political beliefs onto it! The same events would have played out regardless of the characters’ races, which are never factors in the plot. The actors were cast for their talent, not for their race.

[fadingkittenx]

I'm sorry but it's moronic to say that this movie has no political commentary when it explicitly tackles the failings of the medical system, cycles of abuse and corporate greed.

By dismissing the movie's themes and boiling it down to "a stupid little internet horror concept", you're doing it a massive disservice.

[samstalgia]

so pissed at these racist fucks on tumblr people really are not exaggerating when they say this site is so fucking white seriously we have a really good horror movie with a black protagonist who is nuanced and interesting and a DAMN GOOD actor and everyone’s thirsting over the white twink who has 10 minutes of screen time. posts about the PROTAGONIST are getting less interactions than a picture of the white guy shirtless with “oh my god he’s soooooo cuteeee!” ARE YOU INSANE . no you’re just racist.

[starvariety]

where has this path led you ?

[shelbbot]

i dont want to change

[queer-here-and-in-fear]

if you come out of the movie with a main cast of a black man and a women both with fucked up interesting issues and i see your ass ONLY posting abt the white boy who was on screen for 10 minutes. i am actually the evil leftist who thinks your evil for that and i am going to block your ass. fuck off
