me dad says that when he first went to go see mad max in theaters that it seemed very apocalyptic, ridiculously so, to see a character selling bottled water. the notion of selling it like that was outlandish. I think about that a lot and how such an idea has become normalized to the point where a new viewer wouldn't bat an eye at it today. I think a lot about that and to the extent that Nestle has gone to privatize this natural resource. it's a bit terrifying.

oftentimes when you look back on media you enjoyed as a child it's like hello why did they let a 14 year old fight a dragon? but star wars holds up. luke is 19. his reaction to losing his whole family is to say "alright, let's do this. I'm gonna learn to meditate and hire a sexy drug dealer and his friend who's a furry to be my uber across the galaxy so I can blow up a fascist government" that's something only a 19 y/o would do

one thing the Mandalorian has made clear

is that Yoda wasn’t on Dagobah for any mystical Force reasons, he was there because it was a literal smorgasbord for him. he was the apex predator in that bog, everything for miles around was probably TERRIFIED of him. every food chain ended in Yoda & his death came as a huge relief to the entire ecosystem.

I was walking through the toy aisle at Target when I found this thing and had a VIOLENT AND IMMEDIATE FLASHBACK to when JP first came out and they had a bunch of REALLY COOL T Rex toys that I would have sold one of my scrawny small-child limbs for but my mother wouldn’t get me one because they were “too violent and also ate people” :(

It's hard to explain how alienating the media has been this year as an "essential worker". Every single piece of media produced this year is about how "we're all" stuck inside all the time now, and I'm just like..... I got two weeks at home when I actually had covid and otherwise have gone to work every single day I normally would. All these adverts and news show lines about how we're all in this together and we're all spending our days baking banana bread and zoom calling and all this and I'm like..... Well, not all of us I guess. And it's weirdly alienating and makes you feel weird and cut off
