pirates of the caribbean really introduced an eldritch octopus man who kills indiscriminately and torments the dead as their poster villain and then you watch the movies and it's like, "oh no, actually the worst villain in this series is a small white british man who functions as the herald of capitalism" and that was very very brave of them

old movies, public domain, classics, other such things: the read-more edition

this is a carry over of my original post but under a read-more for more extensive and readily available editing. updated whenever possible

the purposes of this post continue to be “eclectic” but to be “brief”, is for people who enjoy consuming Media and want to have online resources on hand to find them, especially when they are non-contemporary, non-mainstream, and/or on the obscure side (but not always!)

feel free to send your own resources!

I hope they find the idiot rich ppl I hope a teenager doesn't have to die a horrible nightmare death and then I also hope they immediately get slapped with a $500,000 bill to repay the taxpayer cost of rescuing them from their idiocracy and then also another $1billion dollars inconvenience fee of making us all hear about this for 3 days straight.

billionaires on their £200,000 submarine ride to the titanic wreck when the guy moves his xbox controller the wrong way and a window cracks

[image ID: a 3D model of a pink human head rotating and crumpling like it's had the air sucked out of it. end ID.]

everything about this is a shitshow, to the point that I can't even feel bad for the people involved.

  • the sub used nonstandard construction and safety procedures because ~innovation can't wait for a regulatory entity~
  • literally the techbros responsible for this cited spacex as a comparable project (yknow, the company that makes the exploding rockets?)
  • one of these "features" is that the sub is sealed by 17 deadbolts secured from the outside so they literally cannot escape even if it surfaces
  • honestly it's barely a sub. it's a 20ft long windowless capsule piloted via a modified third-party video game controller
  • lots of the other on-board equipment is improvised shit the founder got at camper supply or elsewhere
  • it also used musk's starlink satellites for communication, which may be related to the failure
  • the sole safeguard they had outside of "very strong hull" was about 3-4 days of extra oxygen
  • tickets to get on board this deathtrap ran $250k.
  • one of the billionaire passengers aboard was quoted as saying these are some of the worst weather conditions for a trip like this in 40 years, but they thought there was a decent window to try a dive anyway
  • again. these dudes paid $250k to ride in a 20ft long, windowless capsule, bolted shut from the outside, amid terrible weather conditions...come on
  • the founder of the company that made this deathtrap is also aboard it

literally the kindest thing that could happen to them is that they had a breach and compressed instantly

multiple days in a windowless capsule slowly asphyxiating is a horrific way to go

the chances they'll be found are almost nil. given that it takes 4 hours to reach the titanic going straight down, and contact was lost within 2, they could have been swept away to literally anywhere. search teams have to check hundreds of miles of open ocean surface AND depths exceeding 13,000ft for this 20ft long hunk of jank.

we don't need to eat the rich

we can just let the rich die from their own stupidity

i think it’s really amazing how total strangers who have nothing in common but their shared love of a work of fiction will come together across distances and dedicate their time and energy working collaboratively to build an extensive, richly detailed fanon that completely fucking sucks

you guys are so committed to being bad at interpreting things you’ll just straight up decide this post means the opposite of what i wrote and reblog it anyway

“diet culture will demonize any food that isn’t “clean” but EVERY food can have a benefit for you

Diet Coke is somehow the only thing that stops my migraines, and it reminds me of my best friend. Cape Cod potato chips are my go to salty snack and I live 10 minutes from the factory, so they make me feel cool.

Food is more than fuel. It’s memories and satisfaction and tradition and home and culture.

There’s nothing evil about that.”

I was always jealous of the film Chicken Run when the chickens were almost made into pies. I want to be encased in a pie shell and professionally grocered on a bakers display by a 25 year old brunette woman where I am eventually purchased by the top suit of a corporation and thrown into the face of a disobedient employee to set an example and to inflate his ego.

I should note a different Missouri near total adult ban was also taken out

So if you're reading about these bans, and you're scared where you live or that you can't travel/move to different parts of America, remember these bans are legal nonsense and failing in court over and over and over again

Republicanism is illegal. Constant overreach.
