    The hell kind of sick joke is this?

    The conquistadors literally drug women out into the valleys underneath where the Inca were barricaded up and raped them so their screams would echo up to the besieged, whom they later either slaughtered or enslaved, and beheaded the rulers after forcibly converting them to Catholicism and hid their remains so they couldn’t be worshipped in Inca tradition. Is that what you consider “just fucking”?







  • It was dark. I was expecting cartoon fun. I watched an animated shoe get executed.

    I had a good laugh. You’ve got me there, it does get really quite brutal.

    Honestly, I think the gumshoe is the protagonist and noir is the genre, and I think Hoskins nails it in that context: a hard-boiled 40s private eye struggling with the weighty awfulness of the world, in a world whose weighty awfulness happens to be the result of getting mixed up with cartoons. But yeah, if you’re expecting a muppets comedy instead of film noir, it’s a hard rugpull.

    It’s definitely a film where, in hindsight, I still go “they rated that PG? That should’ve been PG-13 easy”






  • I’ll bite: I powered on my computer. My bios started which started my init process, which started my daemons, which started my login manager (maybe slim), which started my DE (maybe gnome), which I use to go to my browser in order to watch other people stream video games.

    I’m dicey on what the browser is being used for - maybe security software? - but I feel like it’s plausible.
