not to be a hedonist but. pleasure IS the whole point, my loves. we are made for pleasure. humans have not survived out of spite or sheer grit or simply to make more humans. we live for pleasure. the pleasure of licking the last delicious crumbs off your fingers and feeling sunlight on your skin and massaging a loved one's shoulders. we're made to fill our bellies with delicious food, to nap in soft grass, to touch each other in joy and comfort.

there is no shame or guilt in our bodies doing what they were made to do. and we are made for pleasure.

too early to make assumptions, but the fact that disney is rewriting captain nemo's backstory in their upcoming series so he steals his submarine from the english instead of building it himself feels gross to me

sorry i'm not done thinking about this. even though, again, it's still way too early for me to have any opinions. but this little detail is enough to make me worried.

because the early chapters have multiple scenes where nemo talks at length about the engineering behind the nautilus and how everything works (down to the tiniest detail, because jules verne did his research and he wants you to know no matter how many pages it takes), and aronnax is marveling over how amazing the technology is and how the submarine is beyond anything he could have ever imagined.

if you take out the detail that nemo built the submarine himself (which the book blatantly explains how he did that) and replace it with this plotline,

that part of the book i described is now a scene where an indian man and a french man cream their pants over the engineering and scientific power of the british empire.

Yeah this fucking sucks.

its very funny that all the Platforms are about to pivot to subscriber offerings but the thing about doing a subscription based model as a platform is that you have to cultivate good will from your users first, a thing that none of them can do because theyre all scumsucking corporate goons

“subscribe so we can continue offering [service] without having to do horrible ads and algorithms” is a message people are sympathetic to, “we’re doing ads and algorithms anyway, subscribe so you can have a flashy color on your name” is not

happy Tuvok Tuesday, lads

me when some Puerto Rican/U.S. citizens think it’s a privilege that they don’t need a passport to travel to their country

Stand with Puerto Rico. Spit in the faces of colonists.

if ring took place in 2023 and not 1998 it would be so lethal. can you imagine watching a fucking… cursed tiktok or whatever and dying. i’d be mad

if you only pay attention to the family guy clip does she still kill you

yes but instead of your face being contorted into a horrified grimace when your heart stops you just always fall over in the family guy death pose
