Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:
The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.
And our governments are very much the same...
- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Every so often I am reminded that a lot of the people who make films this big belong to a tax bracket so far removed from the rest of us that they might as come from a different planet - and the art they make can't but reveal that.

I feel like the only person on earth who isn't mad at the 4th season of The Witcher. And I have to ask - is anyone actually judging it on its own merits and failures, or are we still just this butthurt about Cavill?

"How badly a cartoon character gets treated isn't the problem, the problem is that people might be jacking off to impure thoughts" literally who gives a shit you insufferable god-fearing fucking wimp go back to the kids' table

Oh you assumed the cartoon character getting plowed is consenting because they look happy? How naΓ―ve. They're pretending because they were coerced by the other character. There's actually untold amounts of abuse happening to cartoon characters behind the scenes. We must take waifu welfare seriously

WHY do they do this. What sick game are they playing. It makes no damn sense, but every single dentist tries to make small talk while you deepthroat a drill, and it boggles the mind.

Knives are also βjust a tool!β But we have pretty distinct rules on where we do and do not use them, because some usage of that tool makes society and quality of life worse.

βItβs just a tool, itβs just a toolβ!β sure yeah, a shovel is also just a tool, but if youβre asking me to dig my own grave with it, Iβd say I have damn good right to have an issue with the tool usage and context.

My last office job had us sitting in a square cubicle with desks against the wall in the round. So every single person sat facing a wall with their backs exposed to the center of the room and the entrance to the cubicle. Fucking nightmare.
