Cthulhu is a priest whose role is to summon the ancient ones. In this context he is the middleman.

Here we say indigenous or First Nations peoples.

Love from Canada!

My comfort series is Futurama!!! When am I hanging out at your house lol

That’s fair. It hurts more when you know the writer’s story. You have to go in expecting to be destroyed.

May I offer Ponyo as the alternative (movie I watch whenever I want to feel better?)

Grave of the fireflies. I watch it whenever I need a good cry.

This is dope.

This is satire.

No, it’s the famous journalist/documentarian Philomena Cunk, from her series Cunk on Earth.

If they were happy then the Kids would be Alright.

Patriotism doesn’t have to mean the same as nationalism. In fact, it’s disappointing when they’re conflated.

Hayao Miyazaki’s art style specifically has so much life injected into it, that you would have to be incredibly specific to even approach his style.

There’s an instance that stands out in Spirited Away, when Chihiro is putting on her shoes, she taps the toes of one foot against the ground to set it on correctly. A miniscule detail, but one that makes her feel more real. You’d need such an elaborate prompt to make that happen via AI, but thats the kind of detail that he includes in his movies. To him, the thought of having “someone” illustrate that who has never put their shoe on incorrectly and had to fix it is beyond inauthentic. That’s my take. Less about the worry of technology taking over, and more about the technology not understanding the language it’s being taught, because it can’t.

I understand that many people have an incorrect understanding of DEI (and at times have had experience with it being incorrectly applied). I was actually hoping to learn where this particular person learned their viewpoint to have a conversation.

Genuine curiosity here- where did you get your definition of DEI?

Flames! Flames on the side of my face!

Taco Bell, taco Bell, product placement, for taco Bell

Don’t you know? Kids these days only know something twerk something eat hot chips something be bisexual etc…

It builds character. Malnourishment is character.

Oh much more recent. So much progress has been made! In the latter of the years you mentioned, woman would have only been able to vote for 3 years so there is no way a woman would have been in power to checks notes roll back protection on working conditions for minors.

I hate this timeline.

They made a sequel???
