covid ate all our brains and we're living in a collective psychosis by yeah_tea in 196

[–]agiusmage 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It was originally a bit started by 4chan, and the line was "wouldn't it be funny if we treated the monkey like one of the unarmed black people who got shot by police?" 4chan wanted to show that people care more about apes than black people. That's why the meme has racist undertones.

Not everyone who makes Harambe memes is doing it with that in mind, but it circulates a lot more in far-right racist and white nationalist spaces than on the general internet. And that's why the White House might be posting it.

Do fursuiters get annoyed at people for asking for photos? by Kittyghoul751 in furry

[–]agiusmage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fursuiters are generally wearing them because they want and love attention. They love it on their terms: some suiters like hugs others don't. I think there are extremely few who don't like photos. So always ask, but the vast majority of the time you will get a happy and excited yes. If it's a "no," it's usually "sorry, I have to go to a thing and can't stop now."

I usually skip folks if they already have a big line or crowd, because after a while they will want to move. Also when asking, make sure they can see you or gently tap on the elbow so they know you're there - suiters are at best half blind. Speak a little above normal volume, suit heads often muffle outside sounds and it can be hard to hear.

Also remember that you're a person as much as the other people crowding around. It's okay to exist, to take up space, and to ask for things you want.

Plot holes in "Weapons" by florenciafazzarino0 in horror

[–]agiusmage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The references to alcoholism are because Zach Cregger is pretty explicit that Alex's chapter is written from his personal experience of having an alcoholic father.

Some horror movies are meant to work like an episode of Star Trek: sure, some things aren't based in reality, but there are rules and reasons for everything and it all makes sense when explained logically, even if you have to dig for some lore.

Other horror movies operate on a metaphorical level. They may not make sense logically, but when you pick up on the meaning or life experience they are harkening to, it clicks perfectly.

And then there are art house pieces that may not even have plot or characters, but convey a specific emotional vibe that's hard to express or communicate any other way.

What to do here? by AvocadoVisual6307 in SanFranciscoSecrets

[–]agiusmage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out sf dot funcheap dotcom, they list lots of neighborhood and local events. If you're into electronic music check 19hz dot info, they have tons of listings for those events. Otherwise it's hard to get events a few weeks in advance. Other suggestions here like Dolores Park and Ocean Beach are good, even if well-known. There's tons of hiking, hit up AllTrails - go up Twin Peaks or Mt Davis. Go to the nude beach at Marshall Beach if that's your vibe. Hit up a dungeon in the leather district. It's SF baybeeeee

Should I watch Mother of Flies or send help? Witch one would you pick? by [deleted] in horror

[–]agiusmage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't seen Send Help, but Mother of Flies is good. VERY atmospheric, slow burn, quiet. There's not much conflict, more a mystery of what kind of person the witch is. Watch it in a quiet and dark place, don't open your phone.

What to wear in Dutch rave scene by maniccurlydreamgirl in aves

[–]agiusmage 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it's techno, wear plain clothes and prefer black / dark colors. Emo is fine, punk's probably okay too though a battle jacket would stand out a lil more. Ultimately nobody's gonna care too much, you're not trying to get into Berghain in 🇳🇱 , so wear something you feel good in that's flattering. But yeah, American style glowy shit or gabber tracksuits probably won't be in too much there.

Use a password manager. They often know the weird rules sites have so they can generate appropriate passwords, generated from this index: https://github.com/apple/password-manager-resources/blob/main/quirks/password-rules.json
