VISIONARY DIRECTOR R.D. OLIVAW

FUCK YEAH

Suspiciously relevant posting about what I’m working on atm

I keep oversleeping on busy ass days and it’s totally fucked my ability to take it, solidarity

The dealer called it “Caliburn Ex Calibur”. Apparently only the purest of heart can toke it. I’m gonna give it a whirl.

— TEN MINUTES LATER —

Oh fuck the future is taking root in the present. The king is the land and the land is the king, man. It’s a dream to some and a nightmare to others.

Sage, wise, gentle. Constantly managing his neurodivergent pals. Nice hat.

I want to do unspeakable things to this bug lady

Imagine being one of the elephants in Star Wars. Telling all the other elephants what happened, none of them believing a goddamn word.

James Joyce’s Tenchi Muyo

Adam Sandler’s Neon Genesis Evangelion

What makes this annoying is that the most oft-cited examples (The Sopranos, Breaking Bad) do very much give their amoral protagonists their comeuppance or end their stories on a fairly bleak note, but I guess because they aren’t completely humiliated from every angle it’s not enough for them

“Pikachu is home”

It's not "whataboutism" and "both sidesing" to say that entire countries of human beings are more complicated than your little chauvinist brain is willing to account for

They fear your abilities

I cannot recall if it’s ever said out loud but Walter absolutely views Jr. as a “bad seed” because Walter has on some level concluded his bloodline is tainted and dirty and full of intrinsic failure

Which to Walter not only represents the phantom of his dead father but the cumulative self inflicted failures of his life up to that point. His son is “born wrong” and that’s “on him” for screwing his life up so atrociously.

Worm of a man.

Cuz it’s true and I don’t think it’s discussed enough! Walter is apocalyptically terrified of being sick, being a “burden” like his old man. It’s a big reason why he treats his son so atrociously - he’s a “burden”, he’s “weak”, he’s whatever, because he’s got cerebral palsy

As we’re all talking about Breaking Bad for silly reasons I want to take the opportunity to slide “Walter White’s self loathing in the early seasons especially is rooted in deepseated ableism and fear of sickness” over the table again

Shameless. Barbaric. Ill-mannered.

I don't want to pick a fight about it but I saw someone claiming that shaming doesn't work where vaccines are concerned and then try and turn around and say "How many of you are wearing masks?"

And that's the thing: People stopped wearing masks because they were shamed OUT of it.

They have a blood oath

I get the principle of it - they’re the bad Mario’s, the backwards Mario’s, the upside down Mario’s, so naturally they’re not brothers.

But what… ARE they? Why isn’t it defined clearly? Is that because definition is a Mario trait, and thus…?

BECAME MILLIONAIRE

DRANK ASSES MILK

Would this have been the grim fate of Winnie the Pooh if Disney hadn’t gotten his greasy claws on him

The British totemification of Paddington Bear is so fuckin mental to me

Oh man I had forgotten that, holy shit

Stewart goes without saying, yeah. Oof.

Beyond the obvious (GMo cannot do blackness well), lay it on me

“Your honor there has been a terrible mistake. I’m scared.”

Modern art, this photo. Modern art.

And I get it, you know? I’m mental. I’m a paranoid schizophrenic. I’m way, way more autistic than I might appear. I have rampant untreated OCD. But I am also 31! I cannot be shielded from the troubles of our daily lives. I need to know what is happening, so I can better engage with it. And so on.
