Bonus: If I buy a book I get to keep it! The publisher can't turn up at my house at random and confiscate all the books I bought.

It was Ax, in Book #8: The Alien: "Books are an amazing human invention. They allow instant access to information simply by turning pieces of paper. They are much faster to use than computers. Surprisingly, humans invented books before computers. They do many things backward."

I always felt I couldn't possibly be upset about dying to an alien monster because proof of otherwordly life is exactly what it'd take for me to die happy

we always see xenomorphs in instances where they are fighting for their lives. Would love to see a documentary style movie about what xenomorphs are like when they're left the fuck alone. (prometheus doesn't count)

The way adult fandom people hold indie online creators and cartoons to a much higher standard than their actual local politicians. You could be putting that energy into terrorizing and protesting conservatives at your town hall and actually make a good material impact on the world but instead you're background checking everything the trans woman who made the amazing digital circus has ever said

The point isn't "stop criticizing indie artists" or "defend your favorite show under this post". I don't even watch Digital Circus and no one is above criticism. Literally every indie show is getting torn to shreds on twitter right now and I'm not saying this to defend anyone I don't know. The point is "someone who actually has the power to kill us all and get away with it deserves way more ire and accountability than a cartoonist and I expect grown adults to understand this"

Every time I rewatch the Rebirth of Mothra series I find myself wondering why people think these movies are bad.  They’re delightful.  The third movie has a horror scene of Ghidorah’s tail moving after it’s severed and burrowing into the earth and cuts to reaction shot of a T.rex and Triceratops watching it and managing to convey the vibe of “Oh shit that can’t be good for us” despite neither of them having an expressive face.  It’s a series that’s got so much for people with joy in their hearts.

I think it’s funny how Mormon God was like “look polygamy is super important and I am telling you my followers to practice it even in the face of persecution” and then 40 years later Congress said Utah wouldn’t be given statehood as long as the LDS practiced polygamy and Mormon God was like “Ok tell everyone I changed my mind”

I just really like the idea that Mormon God like, basically caved into pressure from the federal government

Similar thing happened with social pressures eventually pushing them to abandon the "Black people are uniquely cursed by God and so can never join the priesthood" doctrine and pretend it never existed

Also lavender is the color of the Berserk Fury, aka the coolest Zoid. Lavender rules.

Really dislike these AI generated monster girl phone game ads. Monsterfuckers can do so much better. I must complete Nightmare Wives.

I hate their most-common-denominator-pretty faces, I hate their "only tastefully monstrous" features, I despise this wasteful attempt to appeal to an audience whose desires are inherently non-normative with a machine that is literally designed to chase normativity. Begone from me, foul ads! I have no need of your focus group filth, the mud puddles I create myself are far better to wallow in.

I managed to listen to exactly 3 seconds of this before I laughed so hard I couldn’t breathe.
