If you could attend a protest for funsies what would you do for a sign? Mine would be like "TACO Tuesdays? I don't think so, hombre!" or "Um...there is a criminal in the white house...wow I guess I need a drink!"

What I liked about S1 was that it was a bit tighter than The Walking Dead. Pedro Pascal, of course, is always great to watch. I liked the little vignettes as the road trip across America played out.

S2 lost all of that momentum. Interpersonal moments became overly contrived. The show settles into a predictable pacing of running, action, stop and talk, running... Actors get even less to work with and good character moments are sparse and mostly used for cliffhanger bait.

I just want grumpy Pascal escorting a vulnerable but sassy child/alien across a map and making/killing friends along the way. I do not want a late 00s zombie c-movie with theater actors doing metaphors about Israel/Palestine. Especially when the punchline is "Wow, Israelis sure are brutal but have you seen what they're fighting?"

What did YOU think about S2 and its ending?

I was watching this for a project and I noticed how much better the cinematography was and how much more it was stylized than BHC. It seems like a weird photography choice for the sequel of an action comedy movie. Then I found out the director was Tony Scott and it made much more sense. This isn't even all of the great shots in this movie. It has no business being this good. Don't worry though they fixed the good cinematography problem for Beverly Hills Cop 3. In fact they fixed a lot of stuff with that one.

This website has a culture problem around being fucking annoying at times with the tedious task of attending to the "every post is talking about me" crowd.

Dude I only got this job because you were offering an internship two summers ago. We don't have the budget for that. We're still working on the last changes you made and the plan was to return to the normal schedule after we implemented your "fixes." Why do you not know this stuff man you're the boss, you should know our team has been cut down by half over the past 6 months. Where are we going to get the time for this? We're already pushing crunch time. You just got here and had a 1 hour meeting now you know everything we're doing?

"The executive is going to skip habeas corpus if the courts don't support our current disregard for habeas corpus"

"Checks and balances" was a masterful marketing slogan. It's worked on people for almost 250 years.

Orwell wrote the book between November 1943 and February 1944, when the United Kingdom was in its wartime alliance with the Soviet Union against Nazi Germany and the British intelligentsia held Stalin in high esteem, which Orwell hated.

So George, any other particular grievances you may have with any other groups during 1943-1944? Is there any other country getting on your nerves, causing you to hate it? Just any global power that may be doing things that would cause you, an author, to spend a year writing about it?

It was an art forum but super edgy and toxic. They would be horrible to any new artist and if they didn't improve quickly, they would continue to bully. They would even do the lolcow thing with some people. They hated deviantart because they felt it was too soft.

It was also populated with professional artists from the games/movies industry. So you would have these industry leads shitting on literal children for drawing poorly.

I know a few of them splintered and started conceptart.org, which tried to be more professional about it. But the owner and his friends used it to grift. Eventually the owner (who started a production art company an used the site for recruiting) got accused of being a creep. I just remember their attitudes and the way they would present themselves like rockstars.

Anyways, I saw someone mention SomethingAwful and it got me thinking about all the old forums from the 00s that, in retrospect, were fucking horrible.

Also LUElinks. That was more like right on the edge and was close to when 4chan started.

Exactly what the title says, badposting in all its various strains still stems from horrendous filthy birds, and with all the awful shit that endorses, as well as with things like irony and the general doomsday cult foundations in the beanis, why do some people still act so charitably towards it? Badposting has proven itself to be a morally corrupt and oppressive institution at every turn. Or maybe I'm just too negative?

EDIT Ok guys I get it this was rather reductionist, and I definitely was disregarding all the good that shitposters have done, and that memes has inspired people to do, but again over correcting into enthusiastic support for badposting can also be problematic.

The mystification is instant. WB makes a Joker movie to cash in on Batman. They get a cheap director and accidentally let him do his own vision. It makes a lot of money. Then they get lazy, decide to let Todd run amok with it, thinking it'll make money regardless. They cheap out on the usual corporate bureaucracy. The movie flops because Todd took it too far for general audiences.

But none of that actually happened, satanic WB executives are destroying western civilization by attacking Western Canon which somehow includes Ledger's Joker.
