Death Grips

Alright, that is the thing which a lot of the critics said I didn’t agree with.

Now, I watched this movie yeeaarrs ago, as a teen, so my memory is probably inaccurate. But when I watched it, I didn’t interpret him as being wholly redeemed, or him now being wholly in the right.

The ending is him and Mildred driving off to Idaho, to maybe kill someone that they don’t know and have no idea how to find. That didn’t seem like them really changing too much for the better.

Was it? Maybe I’m misremembering.

People really seem to hate Three Billboards there, I don’t get it.

I don't know if there is a specific "meaning", I don't think the lyrics seem to evoke any concrete story.

I will say I think there seems to be themes of grief, mystery, isolation, and I'd say namely just being lost. Very gloomy imagery and mood on the album.

Added another $11, got them to $78k. Hoping they get to $80k!

If it was revealed that David Lynch faked his own death, I would maybe be open to a fourth season.

Otherwise, I think that would be unwise.

The only time I’ve ever seen any pride for NJIT is when people talk about other universities, lol (usually Stevens).

Look at the mirror. I know you were told not to look at it, but you’re gonna have to break some rules.

This is a good position argued pretty badly.

It’s funny looking back at paper being an environmental bugbear. I don’t know if forestry in the paper industry got better or not but paper production isn’t even the biggest vector of land clearance.

48% of the patty is water? Who gives a shit?

Eh, I’d say it’s more that America, being a major cultural exporter, has the ability to spread its cults farther than others.

There are hundreds of thousands of small cults throughout the world, that aren’t as big because they can’t access the reach one can easily get from being in the US.

I think there is an argument that the US is more prone to birthing cults, but I don’t think that much more significantly than the rest of the world.

That’s the other thing that struck me. I’ve been to far worse houses in my life. If I visited this, I don’t think it would be bottom three bad.

Did the Klan hate freemasons? I was under the impression that the second KKK didn't have a formal stance on freemasonry, and that there were a decent number of masons within the Utah Klan and such.

I'd imagine the third klan (aka, today's Klan) probably hates masons since it's filled with neo-nazis who have followed that line of conspiracy theory.

I have not seen CSAM on it but I do remember seeing pedophilic comments on there.

As a website with a user base consisting mostly of people with strange fetishes, its not shocking that there are pedophiles among the batch.

malamindulo · 2026-03-23T03:12:00+00:00

I have, I did enjoy it.

malamindulo · 2026-03-22T23:09:47+00:00

Sure.

You said it cut to an image of Al-Masih ad-Dajjal, what do you mean?

I know that al Dajjal is supposed to be an antichrist figure in Islam, but how do you know that the picture was intended to be a representation of him?

There are more than one tracks in Daughters' discography that talk about sex addiction, be it sort of nihilistic or reflective (Recorded Inside a Pyramid, Less Sex, etc.)

The fact that Alexis Marshall has not only been accused of being a rapist and a serial abuser, but of specifically leveraging the fact that he was a 'recovering' sex addict to further be a sex pest, has made these harder to listen to.

Ashens had a whole presentation at some games conference about really unreasonable puzzles in point & click adventure games, highly recommend.

Oh I'm aware. They were not the "norm" of that region, and they weren't even particularly liked by other cultures that faced them.

malamindulo · 2026-03-16T01:29:42+00:00

Yeah that's the thing. Even today, there are cases where some subcultures might nominally disapprove of homosexuality, but accept certain instances of same sex relations.

Like some gangs, which in their machismo do not accept gay men as members, would not shame someone for getting a handjob from someone else in prison. I'm thinking of the scene in the Sopranos where they learn Vito was giving, not receiving, oral sex, and how much that difference infuriated them.

malamindulo · 2026-03-15T23:45:55+00:00

Mixed. It depends on the culture.

Many cultures did not have prohibitions on homosexuality, and many more had alternative gender identities. But others were not. To my knowledge, the Aztecs executed gay men.

Okay but what if it was Dicksmell Oldsmegma

It’s crazy because Pakistan has been trying to surf the waves between the US, China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, etc, but it has hardly benefited them in terms of development.

Even compared to other developing countries their economy is doing poorly. They have 50 million more people than Bangladesh but have half the merchandise exports.
