it's a pretty well established fact that adults that are fans of space shows like star wars and star trek are child molestors. myfanwy had a good article about it before.

Late capitalism is so decadent. When 'fountain' by Duchamp came out it changed the art world. Same with seminal works like Ulysses, Waiting for Godot, etc.

When Watchmen came out, everyone just ignored it and went back to making fascist comics and fascist movies of those comics. Same with movies, rather than deal with the new terrain of great movies in the 70s hollywood just produced a bunch of crap like star wars and now we've become so decadent we can't even make new crap. I always thought it was ironic we read 'The grapes of wrath', 'the jungle', and overtly socialist literature in school when something like that could never be published or created as a movie today.


no way you are this fucking stupid

a lot of writers are producing stuff under the star wars brand that is of good quality - the early expanded universe novels, the bioware games, the clone wars cartoon.

i don't really get star wars. the old ones are visually impressive but why any adult would be interested in them is beyond me.

i dont see any way in which being an unapologetic marxist cannot be reconciled with thinking watchmen is the greatest work of art of the 21st century LOL

Go get a green curtain on a rod and hold it up in front of yourself and you shout Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain when someone tries to talk to you

Heres a costume that you may already own everything for, and its cool and freaky as fuck. Put on your best black suit, and then put a nylon over your head. Hope those squares are ready for terror, cause slenderman just hit the scene.

i have yet to meet a person born after 1990 who truly, unironically, uncynically likes anything. even seven year olds with attention deficient hyperactive disorder are punctuating their verbal diarrheas and tumbling ungrace with "FAIL!" and "EPIC LOL FOR THE WIN" and its just heartbreaking


i'm a seven year old with attention deficient hyperactive disorder and i truly, unironically, uncynically like a lot of things. i feel like it makes me more authentic than most kids my age. i guess you could say i'm an "old soul".

cool fact! all culture is worthless

star wars 7 will be worthless, the star wars prequels were worthless, the original trilogy were worthless, watchmen was worthless, ulysses was worthless, duchamp was worthless. the only cultural texts of any value are the novels of samuel beckett, and they only because they demonstrated how utterly pointless the entire endeavour is. we should now put aside such nonsense and devote ourselves to unfeeling mechanical sex, analytic philosophy, and building socialism and/or barbarism
#61
same except replace becket with martin amis
#62
little known lf fact: the reason khamsek moved to nyc from london is she is writing her doctorate on martin amis and since he just moved to brooklyn she moved to in order to be able to be closer to him for the study of his life / work

These are obviously true as well, what's your point?

Love, music, industrial genocide, art, calculated rape, imperialism, creativity, these all make us human

Considering how much they talk about their childhood getting raped it seems like there's a cycle of abuse going on.
