Listen, black main character of a horror film? Brilliant, awesome, I’ll eat that shit up. But… I wonder what the motivation was behind the decision to make the black main character of your film, him being the only black man in the film as well, to be an alcoholic, likely abusive man with anger issues? I’m not saying Kane purposely chose to make a morally-grey character a black man, he likely just wrote the character and then Clark ended up getting cast as Chiwetel Ejiofor, but I do think maybe they should’ve put a bit more thought into that? If it was the casting director’s choice, then maybe they should’ve thought a bit harder about the implications of casting a black man as “angry abusive drunk man who ends up tying a girl up and getting eaten”

Backrooms (2026) - Kane Parsons, A24
watched backrooms on thursday and i've been gnawing on a few things since then. mainly, why pirate clark (PC) started eating clark. i have a lot of thoughts about what PC "is" but for brevity's sake, we'll say that he's a reflection of clark's true self and a manifestation of the backrooms. i feel like it's been pretty accepted now that the base reason why PC starting eating clark is because he was mimicking his actions in eating the still lifes, but the reason he did it then (and became aggravated during the interaction) was bothering me a bit.
so i had the idea that it was because clark had finally fully rejected the idea/possibility of change. the backrooms is constantly changing and PC, as a "creation" or "manifestation" of the backrooms would have an innate desire or capacity for change within him but clark telling him that (paraphrasing) "it's okay, she said we don't have to change, we can just stay the same" grates against his innate nature.
there's also the aspect of clark saying he feels at home in the backrooms, like it's where he's meant to be and he really understands it, etc., but then he goes on to say he doesn't want to change and that he doesn't have the capacity for it, which goes against the core thesis of the backrooms. by him rejecting change, he's (if unknowingly) rejecting everything that makes the backrooms, the backrooms. so in turn, the backrooms (through PC) reject him.
and there is also an aspect of him seeking stagnancy and permanence within the backrooms, shown through him "settling" there and making a "home" for himself there, drawing a map and expecting it all to stay the same. him claiming it as "his house," trying to control it and wrangle it into something containable and understandable for him. but his ideas of stagnancy are entirely antithetical to the backrooms, so when he tells PC that they can stay the same and never change, he's telling PC that he doesn't belong there and PC acts accordingly

So, thanks to a good health day, I was able to see the Backrooms movie! And while my sibling took away a more anti-AI message from it, I ended up thinking a lot more on the themes of misogyny and the psychology behind it, so I'm putting my thoughts here
Spoilers for the movie below the cut!
Clark saying the creatures don't feel anything and then later in the same scene the woman anomaly is seen attempting to run away from the pirate, seemingly in fear. Something something devaluation of life seen as different than him.
And it’s taking things overly literally, which seems to be a bad habit of his.
He knows that they don’t feel physical pain. Most likely because they don’t have nerves since that seems an easy thing for the dimension with dementia to forget to add.
Same with them not being very expressive on a facial level. Due to well… Being a physical guesstimation of a person. All that overlapping biology would definitely make traditional emoting impossible. Too many eyes, brow bones, noses, etc. might not even have enough muscles for it. The one he tore into seemed made mostly of just pure fat.
But they’re alive regardless. They’re reactive and respond to stimuli in ways they understand how to.
Not just in red haired creature running and shrieking in fear. That’s easy to read. But also the lampshade one rapidly turning its lampshade on and off.
That’s a panic response from something that can’t flee because the chair is a part of its body. Doing the two things it knows it can. Turn on the light and turn off the light.
But the one he doesn’t undermine the interiority of? At least not as much? The captain. His copy.
He try’s to reason to that one. Talks to it like it understands him. Despite it looking the least real. It looks like a puppet over a man.
But it’s “him” so it matters

just wanted to thank fandom, and in particular everybody who has ever let me a long heartfelt comment on my fic, because experiencing that as a creator of things has made me realize i myself am going through life as a coward. not only has your commenting materially changed me & encouraged me to write, but it has also made me change how i engage with all kinds of art because i cannot un-learn how powerful those kinds of comments can be.
i went to a show on the weekend and loved a band - big enough to tour nationally, small enough to be the opener at a $20 bar show. we chatted and i bought merch and it was perfectly lovely but i’d listened to their album since getting tickets and have come to love it in a much more specific and personal way than “awesome set, you guys were great”
in the past i would not have done anything with these feelings, and if i shared them with anyone it would have been my friends - certainly not the band. but instead i wrote them a long and earnest message the next day. embarrassing! horrible! but knowing what it has meant to me to receive such a message made me push through it and hit send even while wanting to pitch myself into a pit of personal mortification.
but what do you know, lo and behold, shocking no one except the cop and coward in my head, the lead singer replied thanking me, and talked more about their plans and music, in an even longer wall of text.
it’s things like this that keep me going as an artist, he said. thank you again, my heart is so full
anyways, so is mine, thinking of all the people who have told me exactly how something i shared made them feel, and made me confront how pointless and miserly it is to sit on my feelings and gratitude just because i am shy of showing them; what a sad dead end for the transformative touch of creation, when it could be reflected right back into the heart of the person who reached out into your guts in the first place.
here’s to those who keep it all going, and in doing so, spread it to the rest of us, rolling outward and outward, filling up hearts.
I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.
He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense
Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.
My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.
Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.
He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM
imo the term "walkable" in "walkable cities" should be understood to mean "wheelchair accessible" as well, not just literally "possible to walk in". the act of walking in a city doesn't automatically make it walkable
the main problem i have with america is that nothings old as hell there. i cant be so far away from a castle it damages my aura
man people really just say stuff on here huh
Noooo haha don't spread racist ideals and colonizer propaganda by idolizing white european aesthetics above all else and denying the life and accomplishments of native peoples on their own lands
People have been living in the downtown area of Tucson, Arizona for at least 4,500 years. The greater Santa Cruz river valley has been occupied by humans for 12,000 years.
You see this?
That's not a river. That's the South Canal in Mesa, Arizona (Phoenix metro area).
This is a view of the East and South canals. At least half of all the Phoenix metro canals were originally built by the Hohokam (from roughly 200-1400 CE), and are still in use (restored) today.
Phoenix, Arizona actually has more miles (kilometers) of Canals total than both Venice and Amsterdam. No, really. Phoenix has about 180 miles of canals, many of which are built on ancient canal foundations.
below is an aerial view photo taken in the late 1930's of one branch of Phoenix's canal systems:
Also have the "Montezuma Castle," if you need a castle:
I don't need to look at some 12th century European castle to see age.

pasta is so comforting. pasta is my best friend. pasta my beloved. pasta is my boyfriend pasta is a god pasta is the breeze in my hair in the weekend pasta is a relaxing thought!!!
i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights
