you should have killed me when you had the chance

recommending black sails to heated rivalry fans because I don’t give a fuck anymore. ‘what do they even have in common ?’ nothing. nothing at all. i am trying to hurt you.

I do hope that absolutely 0% of you are planning to comply with these new ID age verification rules for any of these platforms.

I tried watching it today since it won the Oscar for best picture and La Palme d'Or (what a joke) but I gave up after 20 minutes... The movie starts with slow motion shots of naked women humping men, you know the type; you're in a club, blue light, the women are wearing thongs and high heels and humping ugly ass men with a big smile on their faces... to the rhythm of an incredibly upbeat boyband song... and it says it all really. I almost shut down the video right here and there. But I decided to give it a chance. During those 20 minutes I have been subjected to so many close ups of women's asses that i felt nauseous. It's a romantic comedy about a prostitute and her john (a 21 years old scrawny misogynist.) She somehow falls in love with the little shithead. You know, nothing charms a woman's heart more than being treated as a sex object. He's rich and Russian, he's white, so white you can almost see through him and soooo boring. He has the most annoying laugh and watches sexist music videos on his TV. Apparently, him paying to bypass women's consent is not a turn off. It's Pretty Woman but worse. It's the glamorisation of prostitution leading to wealth and fun parties with VIPs. It's trash. How many women are on the judging panels of those award shows? Not a lot I suspect. Some people also complained that it's Russian propaganda. I'm afraid I didn't watch enough of the movie to comment on that.

Just say you have no media literacy and move on. Anora is not a movie that glamorizes sex work. It is not about Anora being a girlboss or standing up to anyone. Nor is it romantic either. It’s a film about the class divide and how she was easily bought, played with and discarded, and she can try to be defiant all she wants but it’s gonna do fuck all. It’s a criticism of the Russian “golden youth” (google it) and the oligarchy that gave birth to it. The connection explored between Igor and Anora is a representation of the utilitarian attitude that the people with money and resources have towards people they view as lesser than them - that is what brings them together and has nothing to do with romance, there is a reason that alleged epilogue is not in the film. It is a dark comedy yes, as it ridicules the outlandish behavior of the ultra rich elite who don’t even have the desire to raise their children properly and instead entrust their wellbeing to a bunch of goons. This isn’t a story that isn’t often told in American media so why would you know about it? But it’s a story very familiar to a Russian audience.

"Average age of Minecraft player is 63" factoid actually just statistical error. The vampire Armand, who is 514, lives in Dubai & spends approx. 7.5 hours a day playing is an outlier adn should not have been counted

I keep thinking about poor little puppy dog Till not realising what Ben was really going to be doing when he told her his plan to use the manual override, and her face/tears/desperate run when Ruth told her that there are no breach suits on Big Alice 😭

Also, I keep thinking about how shit it is for the Mel/Ben shippers - if season 4 robs me of my ship’s season 3 happy ending, I’d be devastated.

Putting Melanie, Ben, Till, and Audrey on the train and then only letting it last for one episode where they time skip over everything was an offense against me personally

where! the fuck!! is my wife melanie cavill!!!

honestly louis should've known armand was secretly a manipulative evil maniac when he found out he was the artistic director of a niche theatre company

rereading the foxhole court is so funny. like Andrew took one look at Neil and was like "idk what the fuck this kid is so paranoid for but he should not be planning to flee for his life. his ass should be in the CLUB"
