it never fails to drive me crazy that hollywood has supposedly churned out tons of "anti vietnam war films" but none of them ever have any vietnamese characters who are allowed to speak. and then you can turn on a ww2 movie and the germans get to talk and talk and talk!

yeah I feel like most Vietnam War films are anti-conscription films at best, but it’s structurally very challenging to make a truly anti-war movie, it really has to be a story of people living their life and facing various plot shenanigans that end abruptly in the third act when a bomb hits their house and they all die.

I think those fancomics where Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes is transgender are cute and fun but I also think it's a deep misunderstanding of Calvin's character to think he would transition into a heterosexual normie who goes to her high school reunion. That girl would have neopronouns and fang implants

Adult Calvin is a tattoo artist named Panthera who is the bassist in a terrible metal band called Captain Napalm and Hobbes helps do faer E injections

I know it's like 2 weeks too late to change it but I'm so mad I didn't realize that the band would obviously be called "Get Rid Of Slimy GirlS". I walk the road of shame

he looks like he needs a cigarette

not to act like a "math autistic" but its literally puzzles

its the most game like thing you can learn

nobody else doing it like me. particularly because the way i’m doing it is needlessly difficult

I hate the fake whimsy as an excuse for overconsumption... I just heard a fashion youtuber saying she wanted to buy some gauchos because they look perfect for riding a bike or climbing a tree... girl when was the last time you climbed a tree???? Just say you want those trousers because you've been seeing them online and like how they look, spare us the pantomime

Unironically I think this meme is really good for explaining why maths formalisms and notation are so valuable, even when they seem cumbersome/convoluted. It's an incredibly precise way to describe the interaction of a lot of related-but-meaningfully-distinct concepts, and this is a great showcase of that, thank you Lynn Chordbug you're the best.

When you meet Edward Elric he gives off the impression that he's the short-tempered hot-headed "violence is the answer to all life's questions" kind of protagonist, and it's in fact incredible character craft that he's actually the character who ends the series with a negative-3 kill count.

God's worst soldier Edward Elric. Showed up as the youngest member of the Amestrian army, took millions of dollars from them, never followed a single order, helped dismantle their fascist regime, left with a lower kill count than he arrived with, then fucked off to go be a house-husband. Character of all time.

I looked up this image and found it on Hungarian archival photo site Fortepan here. It is filed under 1938 but alas there are no further details of photographer, location, etc..
