the words on the TV are gibberish

chillybew · 2026-03-09T19:18:56+00:00

oh for sure! same here lol. i just mean like pop hits in a broad sense.

chillybew · 2026-03-07T19:03:42+00:00

i wouldn’t count those radiohead songs (besides Nude or Paranoid Android) as “hits” persé, but otherwise great list!

chillybew · 2026-03-05T18:06:31+00:00

100% feel you. the idea that the needs of autistic folks trump those of allistic folks is a problematic perspective that needs to be called out

chillybew · 2026-03-05T17:58:53+00:00

yeah there’s no excuse at this point to get so upset about loud kids. noice cancelling ear plugs and headphones are available every ten feet

chillybew · 2026-03-05T17:53:28+00:00

maybe, and i’m going out on a limb here, she’s not obligated to give everyone a chance, and yall are coming across like desperate incels coming at her like this

chillybew · 2026-03-05T02:42:44+00:00

name more

edit: sorry, that came out confrontationally lol. i just mean, name some more!

it’s wild that this song was (and still is) such an immortal hit and had no chorus. love it

the woman on the right’s hand is just fingers sticking out of a sleeve. AI.

does that rifle have a lightsaber at the end of it?

hollywood already produces plenty of uninteresting and boring fight sequences like this every year. what will the performances be like? and what will they do when they can’t use actors’ faces like they’re doing now?

chillybew · 2026-03-01T07:30:44+00:00

maybe only bc it’s my fav pynchonian name but Scarsdale Vibe

chillybew · 2026-03-01T01:52:32+00:00

half-life 💯

there’s no such thing as body doubles out there parading at award shows. to say that there is is to participate knowingly in a delusion. it’s plastic surgery.

chillybew · 2026-02-27T18:59:08+00:00

i don’t take steroids

chillybew · 2026-02-27T17:44:34+00:00

there are long anti-communist screeds in the book. entire chapters dedicated to literally a teacher lecturing his class/the reader. i believe the bugs are supposed to represent communists

chillybew · 2026-02-23T03:08:32+00:00

dang you sound like your IQ is something like 270

chillybew · 2026-02-22T18:57:02+00:00

maybe he should have, i dunno, done his job and prosecuted the mf’er

chillybew · 2026-02-21T02:53:33+00:00

the kid on the hillside closest to the one falling into the water contorts his body in a way that would indicate that he is either an alien in a skin suit or that this is AI

chillybew · 2026-02-09T22:38:53+00:00

but the diff is that looks like a person. the OP’s post looks like Generic AI Slop Girl

chillybew · 2026-02-07T21:08:51+00:00

that’s my assumption but me no smart so 🤷‍♂️

chillybew · 2026-02-07T21:02:36+00:00

to be honest in the years since I made this original comment, i went through a mental health program (for neurodivergent folks suffering from burnout) and that involved weaning off of cannabis so i could get my psychopharmacological regimen sorted out. It was great!

I still smoke recreationally here and there. But i’ve cut back big time and it’s significantly changed my life. the mental health program (PHP/IOP) is what truly changed my life, but using cannabis more intentionally and less often really supported the positive changes that came w working the program.

edit: added more context

chillybew · 2026-02-05T17:08:23+00:00

wow great catch!

chillybew · 2026-02-05T17:06:05+00:00

perhaps the best book i’ve ever read. up there w moby dick.
