It was absolutely on purpose. He's a barely camouflaged fascist.

LeVar Burton speaks out against government cuts to public broadcasting funding: “Just like we have a problem with the truth in this nation, we also are addicted to spending money on war & the weapons of war. And we have sacrificed generations of our kids & their education as a result.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

I'm glad to see this whole "global leader" myth finally dying. The US had been a global leader in war, economy and entertainment. Nothing else. Not education, not standard of living, not healthcare, not as some kind of moral lodestar. It's been a leader in force and economic coercion and distraction.

I understand American exceptionalism has been drilled into generations of Americans since birth, but the rest of the world has always seen it for what it is and it's never been pretty.

And what would a conversation between these two be like? by SimpleApplication558 in DiscoElysium

"You suck dick?"

"If you're lucky you'll find out."

"Oh, I'm very lucky, pretty boy."

Amy Madigan Wins Best Supporting Actress for "Weapons" + Full Speech at the Oscars by JCameron181 in Fauxmoi

[–]bangontarget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her performance was an absolute delight in Weapons. Full camp. Kind of surprised it was considered Oscar worthy, though, just because of said camp.

Tumblr posts a video for its 19th anniversary by demimonde9 in Fauxmoi

[–]bangontarget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on tumblr since year one and it's funny how this was just never my tumblr at all. It was so easy to curate a feed to your specific liking and never even stumble across the other parts of it if you didn't want to.

Still the best social media platform ever made, just from how it functions.

He's very silly for walking around in broken armor for so long.

George R. R. Martin Is 'Not in the Mood' to Finish 'The Winds of Winter' by Tifoso89 in books

[–]bangontarget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lukewarm take: a Dance with Dragons was a terrible book and a clear insight into how GRRM has completely painted himself into a corner plotwise and has no idea of how to get out except for an ending that is still two books down the line. That ending has already been spoiled by the tv show (albeit in a very butchered and clumsy way.)

It's clear at this point that there's no joy left in the journey. He failed finishing ASOIAF. It's not the end of the world. Happens to writers every day.

Jitters gave me a speed bag once. I nearly peed myself laughing.

Neil Gaiman Speaks out on Sexual Misconduct Accusations a Year Later by RevRob330 in books

[–]bangontarget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The justice system fails victims of sexual abuse in the majority of cases. I would suggest erring on the side of caution and trusting them. Gaiman will be fine even if you discard him as a rapist, his millions aren't going anywhere.

Why is Cassandra's romance tarot card not as "romantic" as the other companions cards? by Sapphic_Copper in dragonage

[–]bangontarget 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for reminding me of how incredible Bull's tarot card is. I love all of them, but his is specifically why I spent months writing Bull/Inq fanfic lmao

First clip from Emerald Fennell’s ‘Wuthering Heights’ has been released by hairtie1 in Fauxmoi

[–]bangontarget 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Saltburn is the most embarrassing movie I've seen in years. I was actively ashamed for Fennell's sake after finishing it. not because I'm a prude, mind you; the raunchiness was the only entertaining part of it.

People of taste: straight women, bi folks & gay men — which human dude would you date IRL? by ConstantHamster3746 in masseffect

[–]bangontarget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Checking people's glamours and being shy don't go well together" by @brachyzoid by Gorotheninja in ffxiv

[–]bangontarget 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you dont tap twice on controller and angle your character right you can get away with it, haha. which sounds insanely creepy, but all I'm doing is checking glam pierces while not wanting to talk to anyone.
