driver's ed is trying to be more hip and relatable to the youth so they started adorning those horrifying photos of mutilated corpses in car wreckage with image macro text saying things like "BRO THOUGHT HE HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY 😆💀😭"

Cats getting caught doing crimes

[flipocrite]

it takes quite a bit of social intelligence for a creature to understand:

I know what I am doing is wrong

I know there is an activity that looks similar that is not wrong

If I am quick I can plausibly pass one off as the other

[gingerhastoomanyobsessions]

these cats are displaying remarkable theory of mind skills by not only registering that the humans can perceive them but actively trying to manipulate that perception! that requires one to be aware that other individuals have complicated interior thoughts of their own, to know that those thoughts are not always based on truth, and to quickly decide on the best possible “lie” for the situation. this is why I despise animal intelligence tasks based on obedience— some of the most clever moments stem from intelligent disobedience.

genuine question, not trying to be unkind: in what way is “movies that are not made for children” an incomprehensibly complex idea

[sodomit]

I don't know the full context of that conversation, but I can easily see why "movies that are not made for children" could be called an incomprehensible category.

It's because it could be defined in completely different ways, and includes content that cannot be meaningfully grouped together.

It can include movies that children are legally not allowed to watch (which is a shitty concept), movies made without children in mind, but that still attract children (like most action or horror movies), movies made by someone who's trying to be an edgelord on purpose because they believe "adult" media should be offensive (like a large part of cartoons that are marketed as for adults), movies that are considered too complex for children for some socially constructed reason.

In general, the idea that something is not made for children should invite skepsis and digging deeper.

[nonbinary-starry]

The Brave Little Toaster (great movie btw) for instance is a good example of an animation that was targeted at teenagers and young adults but became popular with kids. It was picked up by an arthouse film distributor for the theatrical release and was nominated for an award at the film festival for being the best film there (it lost because it was animated).

So like, the brave little toaster is technically in the same category as A Serbian Film.

[merlilica]

you did not seriously just compare an animated kids film called “the brave little toaster” to a Serbian film, about a pornstar in a snuff film, which has been banned in multiple countries and cited by many as the most disturbing movie ever made, because they were both art films.

[nonbinary-starry]

I'm not, I'm just saying that there's a very wide variety in adult movies

[merlilica]

In what way is brave little toaster an adult movie I am genuinely asking, because the book is intended for children, and the movie is intended for children. A kids’ film that chooses to treat its subject matter in the same way as a film made for adults isn’t a movie made for adults, it’s just a good kids’ film.

[touchyourblood]

I'm crying, the brave little toaster is owned by Disney. Yes it was technically made by an independent studio but they needed Disney's permission and funding as Disney had owned film rights to the book for years by then.
