If I ever share anything that was AI generated it is purely by accident. I hate that it's getting harder and harder to tell and it makes me want to never use the internet again. It definitely had its faults, but man I miss the internet of the 2000s so much.
nuclear power is impressive until you get up to why. "we use the most precisely engineered machinery ever created to split atoms to release energy" oh yeah how come? "boil water to turn a fan" get the fuck out
The power of atom turns out to be, yet again, the power of steam
Black panther poster. Just as relevant today
IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME. POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE IS WORK TO BE DONE. ASK YOURSELF, WHAT KINDS OF A WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS? IT'S A WORLD WERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, A WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SAT- ISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS.
THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR G6OVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PR0FITS, THE WORK WON'T GET DONE.
never kill yourself. discovering music is literally endless. you know songs? they're always making new ones
heartbreaking! a pretty solid standalone horror story has gotten a continuation that recontextualizes all of its self-contained events as part of a massive & banal "epic" mythos
Imagine just growing some space potatoes instead of this shit.
Don't kids say the wildest things?
Also Thomas Wayne wasn't that kind of doctor Timmy.

Bat’ober the Long Halloween Challenge day 5: JOKER
Imagine you're Freddy Kruger and some dude you're tormenting just leaves you in Bronze League
Something something, times Joker has been the victim of a vehicular incident
If anyone knows more to add to the pile. Let me know
Edit: this is how I found out Arthur gets hit by a car in Joker (2019) lmao
Okay listen the meme is funny but I love the painting so much I was desperate to know who made it. I dug around a bit and I can now gladly tell you this painting is by Russian artist Konstantin Korobov, and is entitled "Agnus"!
You can buy a print of this painting from him here.
I'm honestly kind of obsessed with his art now actually. Here's some more:
@elodieunderglass Last image--legs?
fabulous, thank you!
Can tell Merry & Pippin apart, of course they can, what kind of question is that: Frodo, Sam
Could not initially tell Merry & Pippin apart but made an effort to learn their names & can now tell them apart: Aragorn, Boromir
Try as he might cannot consistently tell Merry & Pippin apart: Gimli
Can absolutely tell Merry & Pippin apart but pretends not to be able to: Gandalf
Cannot tell Merry & Pippin apart and not even trying: Legolas
where do merry and pippin fall on this spectrum
What do you mean you can’t tell us apart, I’m much taller??: Merry
“I’m Merry”: Pippin
I truly believe we could fix so many problems if the world wasn’t making us all so dang tired
Absolutely, unquestionably true.
Sometimes people think they're dealing with a Torment Nexus but what they actually have is a Jumanji. And sometimes people think something's a Jumanji but oops it's a Torment Nexus.
Now. Sometimes you have a third thing- you'll have yourself a Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. And buddy, I can't help you there.
So a Torment Nexus is something that is either a metaphor for a larger societal problem (e.g. The Platform, The Long Walk) or a social issue/trend taken to an exaggerated extreme (e.g. The Purge), with a lot of shades of grey in between (e.g. Squid Game). If it isn't about a larger societal issue/trend/structure it isn't a Torment Nexus.
A Jumanji can be dangerous and high-stakes (to the characters), but it doesn't need to have a metaphor or lesson, it can easily just be a "Would this be fucked up or what?" situation (e.g. a lotta Goosebumps stories). If there IS a lesson/metaphor, it will be on a smaller scale like psychological issues (e.g. Magnus Archives), family/relationship issues (e.g. Zathura), or about a specific topic (e.g. Magic School Bus). Large-scale social issues may be present (after all, Everything Is Political), but they take a definite backseat.
Now. A Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory is a trap based around morality and vices. These can be cultural, religious, or bonkers bullshit like "children shouldn't chew gum." There is generally not discussion or criticism of this morality system. Regardless of the morality system used, if it's not a trap, it's not a Chocolate Factory.
examples of a willy wonkas chocolate factory include:

the cabin in the woods
labrynth (1986)
