Trinkets, Odds and Ends, That Sort of Thing

Thinking about that “white people like the blues just fine, they just don’t like the people who make it” quote from Sinners since it was robbed of the Best Film Oscar.

Robbed of Best Film, won Best Score, hoo boy they weren't kidding

Thats the context for this meme???

I feel like I've been robbed the whole time. This is magical.

I'm dying

who turned them german mid tag ?

how do you know they were transformed midday?

I really did like the ending of the Backrooms 2026, actually. The twist that the Backrooms is a space that you can physically exit but a part of you mentally will always be trapped in is a great subversion and really effectively inverts the concept. The main scientist character looks directly into the camera and reveals he is still caught in the same nostalgia trap that Clark was, stuck in a repetitive motion and going nowhere. Mary got out but she's still in there. You can leave but you can never escape

Bethesda/Obsidian be like: oh guess what? For once we’ll have a group of mexicans in canon :) …… but sike!!!!!! We had the vault 22 dwellers kill and cannibalize them after invading their home

I refuse to believe the Mojave, Utah, NCR and the Legion are so... gringo after 200 years. México was right there, the frontiers are already gone, and in the lore they bothered in writing a US-Mexican war and a US invasion and annexation of territories, but that doesn't have any cultural implications? They didn't put much thought either in the languages nor the food. I know I know, time constraints and such, but come on, you telling me no one out there is mixing prewar totopos, elote, brahmin cheese and radioactive chilli straight in the bag, or that the legionaries don't drink horchata during their marching (a beverage that historically was considered by the Romans to have healing properties, even though it was made with a different base ingredient). It's eye rolling because you have really small groups of tourists creating new languages and cultures, but Mexico is zero relevant. For all we know, Raúl may be playing a prank on us and México and all of Latinoamerica is a utopia down there now that the US se fue finalmente al infierno.
