White supremacists and chuds love eighties butt rock because it was the last time white people utterly dominated the pop charts and the last time their relevance was absolute. I'm not surprised in the slightest that the late nineties butt rock revival is full of the same sort of people.

Talk about a god drat mistake lmao When I was 19 I hooked up with a stripper from Cincinnati that I met on IRC and went to her place and we watched a movie while I did acid for the first time. I don't definitively remember what the movie was. I remember Blazing Saddles but that seems too absurd. I got mad that she was having sex with other people and burned that bridge because I was dumb as gently caress back then

It's absolutely stunning.

i've only seen akira a few times, but it's neat how much detail / care was put into it, in ways that aren't obvious. there's a short scene, maybe ten seconds where you can see glimpses of a cityscape in the background. they hand painted this detailed backdrop that was only on screen for a few seconds that no one would even notice. touches like that are cool

Like, there have to be some fuckers over there living in leaky lovely shacks on 3 acres absolutely full of rusted out cars, and they ride dirt bikes over a berm for fun and drink too much. i want to hang out with japanese hillbillies. i hear that, like us, they have a weird nationalist/monarchist bent though.
