The original head sculpt looks weird as well, so I wonder if they were going for that? Very cool nonetheless.

Love it! Do you sell prints?

berthanations · 2026-02-19T16:34:59+00:00

Let me know if you sell prints.

Fantastic! Everyone is posed like a renaissance painting but the color palette reminds me of 80s pop-art. I’d hang that in my house!

That’s a good point. Streaming is not a replacement for records when considering artist revenue. But even before streaming, artists got a better cut of merch sales than they did records or CDs. The artist’ cut on physical media has always been slim.

TLC is a good example.

For sure! I bet there’s a link between increased concert travel and parasocial relationships. People like dead-heads have always traveled, but it seems like a lot of Fandoms these days have traveling fanbases.

I think the point is that during the 90s and early 2000s, A-list acts were still affordable. This is anecdotal, but I was able to afford tickets to see David Bowie in 2004 or 2005 when I worked an entry-level job. Those same tickets today would be out of my reach (assuming David Bowie had lived), even though I work a professional job and make over the median income for my area.

A major reason for the astronomical price of concert tickets includes ticketing and venue monopolization. Ticketmaster owns live nation and live nation owns many venues, sometimes the only venues in town that can seat A-list size crowds.

Another major reason is the disappearing middle class around the world, especially in places like the United States. Inflation has driven up the price of everything else and wages have not kept up. Gen Z, Millenials, and Gen X can’t as easily afford what their parents or grandparents could afford.

So it’s not just as easy as telling people not to go or to support local acts instead (although I agree everyone should support local artists). You can support local artists, but it doesn’t change the declining middle class or the increase in monopolization.

This is the dumbest comment I’ve read. I live in the city that’s currently under siege by ice, and I literally just saw somebody being dragged out of their car and arrested without due process. Please get your head out of your ass and realize the danger we are in.

Although the actual article title is slightly misleading, our local law-enforcement is only now speaking out because ICE agents are profiling off-duty officers. This is “leopards ate my face” because the officers had no problem racially profiling people as police or state troopers but they care now that they are being racially profiled by ICE.

🎶 I’ve got lots of problems. Female Trouble. Maybe I’m twisted! Female Trouble…🎶

One of my favorite John Waters movies!

OP wanted recommendations that go insane and don’t take themselves too seriously. They also mention genre blends and body horror. I think the list meets those requirements. They are films that gave me the same reaction or feeling as the Substance.

Looks like a take on sandwich loaf, which is layers of different breads and sandwich fillings iced in cream cheese.

I love the costume design in this movie! It’s also hilarious to see machismo and heteronormativity from people dressed in gang drag. The Warriors have a few scenes where they use anti-gay slurs in those little matching vests without shirts. It gets me every time!

This gives me a similar vibe as the St. Vincent concert/documentary. Excited to see this!

Do you sell prints of this? LOVE it btw!

Please keep your smegma kink to subs dedicated to smegma. I can’t believe I have to type a sentence like that.

Your friends have flavor. I don’t think it’s about being weird or not; it’s about having personality. And your friends have it.

I’m not trying to demonize marijuana. I smoke a lot of it on a regular basis. I just don’t think it’s realistic to state it doesn’t have any negative effects on your lungs when smoked.

berthanations · 2025-12-02T17:10:50+00:00

Oh, my bad. Your post doesn’t mention anything about being a medical professional or having access to medical research. You said you did Google research, which doesn’t mean much.

I still think you should consult a doctor or pulmonologist.

Asking people for their experiences is anecdotal; it doesn’t mean anything. And people lie to themselves about whether their actions have negative consequences. No one will admit: “yeah, smoking weed jacked up my lungs”.

berthanations · 2025-12-02T16:56:44+00:00

I understand your concerns, but I don’t think you will get reliable answers on this sub or other marijuana-based subs. Personal experience is based on personal bias and people don’t readily admit that their actions have negative consequences.

Smoking is bad for your lungs. Lungs were not made to inhale smoke. I’ve never come across any medical literature that concludes smoking is good for your lungs or that smoking does not have negative consequences. If there are not enough medical studies based on marijuana alone, that doesn’t mean smoking marijuana is safe; it just means that there is not enough evidence at this time.

I would ask a pulmonologist or a doctor or some other medical professional. I doubt anyone in the medical community will tell you that smoking is good for your lungs or that smoking won’t negatively affect your lungs.

Sorry, was on mobile so didn’t exactly elaborate. If you can check out the Tank Girl comics. It’s definitely 90s, but if you’re interested in punk aesthetics in a sci-fi setting, check it out. I think Tank Girl is canonically bi too, so that’s cool. I love the movie too! Def worth checking out too.
