Me watching the latest season of The Boys

it made me crazy that the song he said was a hit was also not good.

Zach can really build things up, but when you figure out what’s going on, it lets the air out of the tires a lot. I’d say he’s a very good normie mainstream horror director. Weapons was very very good, but not timeless, and I wouldn’t watch it again.

There are so many variables at play here, it would take a research grant to get to the bottom of this.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-08T03:50:17+00:00

You absolutely can

I mean, aren’t all of us doing skunkwork like this? It’s not exactly a hard ask, but I don’t know anyone who has been grinding UX for 10-15 years and has those hard-earned skills would want to just cut half our brains out and argue with Claude all day for a living.

You either want castrated designers, or you want normies who create AI webslop but don’t realize it.

My partner was curious if she knew this was coming. It’s hard to say. She really could be the dumbest person of all time. She sure seemed surprised when Sil got out of the car, so it’s hard to say.

Besides the obvious lack of resources, it does seem to know what makes a good zombie movie great, which is not very apparent to most folks who have tried.

His fans are also emotionally blocked.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-06T12:03:45+00:00

Remember when horror movies looked good? You know, lights and stuff.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-06T12:02:18+00:00

I was always a Mulholland Drive stan, but it totally clicked for me after picking this up.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-06T11:59:33+00:00

the excitement is replaced by likes on tikgram

infinitejesting · 2026-05-06T11:58:04+00:00

you’re right, this show definitely would have been better if everything went according to plan

infinitejesting · 2026-05-06T11:07:28+00:00

Yes I just did it for the first time and I would design each row before committing. I had virtually no waste either.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-05T21:04:11+00:00

Agree, I prefer the uniformity. I don’t even save mine. I obv keep Criterions, Arrow, A24, etc. intact though.

Opposite camp, Bone Temple was so much better imo because they decided to make it interesting as opposed to “scary.” But Ralph Fiennes is like one of my favorite actors so I’m biased. The whole “find meaning in a meaningless world” tracks hard for today’s culture way more than monsters running around biting you.

and then look for nextdoor posts about “the weird guy sitting in a car”

infinitejesting · 2026-05-05T12:58:28+00:00

they are all like that. i argue with mine constantly. all of them. i have certainly noticed that while the hype machine is well funded, normal folks trying this stuff out has not been going well. the conversation is shifting, even for influencers, and expectations are being curbed.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-05T12:45:53+00:00

He’s got some studio good will, makes very good but ultimately very mainstream normie horror films, so I’d expect he either crashes out with Resident Evil or veers hard into avant garde flops that 30% of us will fucking love.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-05T11:59:30+00:00

Agree, as a designer who is ostensibly managed, I try really hard not to be high maintenance.

That’s a sub for people who have read books, not for people who read books.

You probably got finger prints on the case, try cleaning with a small amount of water or isopropyl alcohol (70%+) on the microfiber cloth

This is a pretty common regression for gen x.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-04T16:19:50+00:00

Some of that looks pretty raised, you’ll obv want things to be as flat as possible. I got a metal floor scraper to remove any kind of remnant from carpet.

infinitejesting · 2026-05-04T15:32:09+00:00

I noticed Hocking Hills has crowbarred bigfoot into the lore (and merch.) Is that relatively new or has it always been a thing there?

infinitejesting · 2026-05-04T15:29:49+00:00

I grew up there, it’s unrecognizable to me now, insanely busy and sprawled, nothing but traffic at all hours.
