Guess who's stupid ass finally got a lens for their film camera! Gonna takey some photos
Playing Wolfenstein 2 the new collosus and having a great time murdering the shit out of nazis but so far my favourite moment is when Set Roth, probably one of the smartest people on the planet, loses a game of chess to Max Hass, a mentally disabled friend. It's hilarious how sore of a loser Set is about it lol
finished watching "everything everywhere all at once" and i keep finding myself looking at the weirdest shit ive ever seen in my fucking life and thinking "this movie has incredibly important things to say about nihilist philosophy" and it's probably one of the best movies ever made i think!
CUNO- "Here's a question for you. Would you rather have a cat with a human face, or a dog with human hands instead of paws?"
CONCEPTUALIZATION- Now that's an interesting question. KIM- "A cat with a—" He sighs. "A cat with a human face…"
EMPATHY- He is having a difficult time imagining it.
YOU- "Still meows, should we assume?"
CUNO- The boy snickers at Kim's distressed expression. "Hold on, hold on. Let the bino pig think about it." KIM- He ignores him. "A cat with a human face, or a dog with human hands instead of paws?"
CUNO- "Yeah. You not hear the Cuno?"
KIM- He appears to be growing more upset, just at the thought of it. "And feet? Or four hands?"
YOU- "Yeah, that's—that was my other question."
INLAND EMPIRE- The problem you have with dog with hands is this: you have created this crime. This crime against the natural order that's sure to live in a lot of spiritual and existential pain.
LOGIC- And what you've done is, in addition to making it more monster than canine, you've also given it all the equipment it needs to use a gun.
Just got back from an incredibly moving symphony and a bunch of posh people in the bathroom during intermission were saying how much they hated it because it made them feel guilty and upset (the composition is specifically about environmentalism and anthropogenic mass extinction) and I just want to say.....
Art isn't supposed to always make you feel happy.
It's supposed to make you feel.
Good art makes you feel, whether it's joy or guilt or sadness or anger or fear. If you're not prepared for art to give you complicated feelings, you don't actually care about art, you just want to be entertained.
Doing a yellow/red furies run, and when I found the ledger, Hand/Eye Coordination noted there’s a fuckton of notes. Kim comments on that approvingly.
Then upon inspecting it,
DAMAGED LEDGER—It’s *inornate.* Nearly illegible, yet marching in orderly lines.
PAIN THRESHOLD—Written in a rush. In pain. A race to beat your own heart’s pulse to some dark finish line.
INTERFACING—Your hand cramps up merely looking at the scribbles, drawn—as by some magnet—to the red chequered margins. Fast, but always *straight*…
YOU—Who is this person?
PAIN THRESHOLD—Wearing out. Nearly gone. Sometimes he forgets to keep the pen on the paper as he moves his hand and the lines vanish from underneath…
How heartbreaking and poetic and fascinating. Showing that even in these past few months, Harry was burning himself out with his workload to an extinguishing point. It speaks to his dedication, and see where it got him. It speaks to his utter fear of being left in the dust.
I think it’s sad that Kim approves of this evidence of being a good little cop doing your mountain of paperwork, when clearly it’s not just destructive—it’s like Mozart near the end of Amadeus where he’s in a mad dash to pen his own Requiem before he dies, in the process killing himself faster.
Kim could end up like that, with the right nudge, burning himself out on the work, and he doesn’t even see that that’s what he’s looking at in Harry’s notes.
say what you will about that era's character models but y3/4/dead souls majima's crows' feet are top notch and they should be brought back
