so anyway yeah iron lung and project hail mary both very good

[gobusto]

saw someone mix up "abysmal" and "abyssal" today, so as a reminder:

her skills are abysmal = she is unskilled

her skills are abyssal = her abilities draw upon the forbidden power of the dark void

Guys the textiles have me sobbing. There's so much love in this movie

[rainintheevening]

Okay, we got a new one, boys.

[shantismurf]

Okay so, definitely this is about not giving your protagonist a spontaneous murder tail, but more largely and it's about building a living breathing world where things fit and work together within an established framework, rather than just adding new mechanics and features in isolation and outside of the rules the reader expects the world to follow.

[marlynnofmany]

It makes it believable, too. A tail is cool and awesome, of course, but what real-world things are only cool and awesome? Peak martial arts skills involve years of grueling training. Driving a badass motorcycle during a getaway scene comes after driving that same motorcycle through traffic, and refilling the gas tank, and debating whether any given errand will end up with too much to carry safely on the way back.

Winning a fight with a tail on page 120 is awesome. But the character has to live with that tail for the first 119 pages. Getting it stepped on or stuck in a door will make it seem real in a way that consistent coolness won't.

Plus, if the character has to suffer through endless indignities because of that tail, getting to finally do something amazing with it will be exceptionally satisfying.

Had a dream that markiplier was struck by lightning and imbued with electrical abilities. People were encouraging him to use his powers for good but he just went back to playing videogames. All the videos were about three minutes long because as soon as he got jumpscared there'd be a brilliant blue flash and he'd fry his computer.

I'm fed up with "maybe later".

Iron Lung (2026)

[getjinxzed]

does this imply that the ocean is ketchup

[acidtheater]

"Halloween adults are just as bad as disney adults" "Furries are worse than disney adults"

I gotta be real, I thought we were critical of disney adults for aggressive loyalty to a really gross mega-corporation, or refusal to engage with media that isn't for kids, not because people... have hobbies?

[poutingtrolltroll]

hey chat, what do y'all think: was simon called butcher before filament station, after it or was butcher a name given to him by the light entity?

personally, i waffle between one (seems badass & probably has something to do with coi & eden clashing) and three (i noticed on my third watch that the eye/light entity was the first to call simon butcher)

Netflix: we think theatres are dying

Markiplier: my indie film is seven weeks from release, and has gone from being distributed in 50 theaters to almost 300 theaters in three days almost 500 theaters in four days OVER 1000 theaters in five days

[cthulu-hoops]

It's over 3000 and international.

‘Iron Lung’ Premiere

[iiipeashy]

Well folks, do we think this will sufficiently entice my local theatre?

[sweetened-condensed-rage]

I think Markiplier is one of the few major social media personalities who actually deserves his audience. Seeing him crying over the overwhelming support for Iron Lung, a project he personally poured heart, and soul, and love into is just such a nice change from the "Mr Beast-ification" that seems to have taken over a large chunk of the internet. He's said before he has more money than he knows what to do with and I'm so, so glad that he's putting it to good use.
