Am I allowed to sexualize the puppet from project hail mary or do I have to wack it to Ryan Gosling because I will if I have to but frankly I'd rather have that alien skittering all over me like a sexy bug. Fuuuck they call him rocky because he make my rock hard

[edgebug]

Yes. That's a conventionally attractive pentapod. He's sexy and I won't even apologize for it. This isn't even a bit right now I'm genuinely

“fujoshis are harmful to gay men” not this gay man.

[cloudabserk]

on twitter this got a bunch of responses like “wow even the evil fujoshis? the homophobic yet hypocritically fetishistic ones? what if the fujoshi is racist?” and like well no obviously not in that case.

i dislike the whole “horror is so back” narrative people are throwing around recently with obsession and backrooms. both are great movies, but horror was also so back with the long walk. and sinners. and the substance. and nosferatu. and literally anything directed by jordan peele. horror as a genre will always have its flops. but there will always be those few that revive the hype.

i'm loving the takes that interpret bear as a metaphor for an ai artist. obviously he is primarily meant to represent the manosphere and men's entitlement toward and objectification of women, which is already twisted enough, but there are so many little details in the film that add to a more subtextual reading.

bear's friend group is four colleagues who work at a music store, a venue celebratory of the arts. both of the women seriously aspire to be artists. nikki is in the middle of writing a novel--a love story, ironically--and sarah is applying to art schools. by contrast, when bear confesses an aspiration to be a food critic, nikki remarks that he eats steak with ketchup. not only does this interaction reveal bear's goal to be relatively vague and poorly researched, it particularly calls out that he lacks the cultural tastes to contribute much criticism of value. whereas the women's interests are curated and honed over years, his just feels random and never even comes up again outside of that scene.

rather than take the opportunity to confess his feelings for nikki or put in any effort to get to know the real her, bear uses the wish to "generate" a version of nikki that reciprocates his feelings. nikki immediately begins making uncanny mistakes such as thinking bear's cat is her own, laughing uncomfortably loud at jokes, and making cartoonish expressions. her movements glitch. she speaks in long poetic monologues through which extremely macabre "relics" of nikki's tortured consciousness and writing style slip out.

at no point does bear offer any vulnerability to nikki nor does he even really seem to know much about her compared to ian and sarah, who both observe her behavior is not in keeping with her previous hobbies and her relationship with her family. bear instead vehemently maintains that their relationship is valid while fully aware of the despair he's causing nikki as he uses her body for his own happiness. her face is often cut out of the frame or cast in shadow, implying that he doesn't see her as a person or cannot confront the harm he has caused in using the wish.

bear's relationship with nikki mirrors the entitlement of ai "artists" thinking they can shortcut to creating something meaningful without curating their own tastes, developing technical skills, or being vulnerable. bear has created nothing but a horrifying simulacrum of who nikki was and robbed her artistry in the process. he has neither changed nor challenged anything about himself that could've made him appeal to nikki more or contribute to society but rather offloaded pain and destruction onto others. he is selfish, lazy, and cowardly from start to finish, refusing to take any accountability for his wrongdoing and the artifice of his existence.

[str-ngeloop]

[dizzyghoast]

when sex 2 comes out what sorts of quality of life updates will be included to help draw in people who never really got into sex 1

[str-ngeloop]

more pleasurable. more intellectually stimulating. higher skill ceiling. more dynamic metagame. optionally more mental-emotional alignment between parties. less cleanup. more intuitive. more variety in sensation and activity to match diverse sensory tendencies. smoother integration with parties' coupled emotional processing. and so on

i'd make a joke about "let the HUSBAND giggle under the covers and tell HIS WIFE to put that camera away before dying before HIS WIFE'S story starts" but lets be real he'd still get more fanart

[strawberry-crocodile]

sir do you understand that you are being criticized right now

[tinkerbitch69]

The best thing about tumblr is you can just make a criticism of a very specific person completely unprompted and then that person will appear as if summoned in your notes to prove your point for you.

Tbh I don’t think it’s wrong to suggest that it’s healthy to try and read books from different genres and branch out beyond your comfort zone as long as we’re also saying that to men who only read podcast bro self help books as much as we’re saying it to women who only read romantasy

[fieldlibraryteens]

Break out of your "comfort zone" and read something from a new perspective - you might discover that expanding that zone is exciting, empowering, and ultimately provides a great sense of comfort by making the unfamiliar more familiar. Reading (or listening or watching, however you prefer to access media) beyond the familiar expands your capability for empathy and enriches your perspective of the world!

Public libraries hosting summer reading bingo games often offer a "try a new genre" square. And books from public libraries are free, so you can try a new genre out without investing anything other than your time! Why wouldn't you explore new genres when the entire library collection is laid out before you?
