There's only one test for dog intelligence that matters. If you put some scraps on a paper plate on the floor for them, and while they're eating the plate starts sliding around, what do they do? If they try to follow the plate around, they're just a dog. If they put a paw on the plate so it stops sliding, they're a smart dog.

I'll probably never watch a Roman Polanski or Woody Allen movie. People say they're good, but there's so many good movies I haven't seen yet, I can watch good movies for the rest of my life and never run out and have no option but to watch a movie by either of those dudes.

Yeah probably, I was just looking at Criterion Collection movies at Barnes and Noble earlier today because they're doing a half off sale, and they had a bunch of Roman Polanski movies. The dude is still alive, and is an admitted child rapist, and fancy movie people are still treating him like a great artist. Maybe he is, but he's also a loving criminal scumbag, and that should override artistic considerations. At least until he dies and can't profit anymore off his public persona as a fancy movie man.

When I casually confuse the actor Graham Greene with the writer Graham Greene, it's very funny and people should laugh. Or, if I do it online instead of IRL, people should say lol or emptyquote it, because, as I said, it's very funny.

Poe did some good stuff, but a lot of it is very of it's time. Stories about noble blood lines being degraded over time until you're down to one last scion who's a weirdo in a lovely marriage don't have quite the impact now that they did back then

I read a collection of 20 Poe stories, and three of them were about the last son of a once-great family who drives their wife to death by being insane and weird, and still manages to make it all about themselves.

That song that goes "He's everything you want, he's everything you need, he's everything you wish you could be but he means nothing to you and you don't know why" becomes incredibly creepy with the last chorus. When it switches to "I'm everything you want, I'm everything you need" Because up to that point, the singer could be interpreted as an internal monologue or an omniscient narrator, and it seems to be leading to the woman having some kind of realization. That what she thinks she needs and what she really needs are two different things, or something along that line. She found the perfect guy, but it's meaningless. From that contradiction should come some kind of new self-knowledge. But then when the singer reveals himself to be the man she won't gently caress, the whole thing becomes a gross nice guy whining that she's too dumb to accept how perfect for her he is.

Ommin posted:I disagree. I don’t remember the rest of the context in the song, but he could be referring to someone with depression. He’s not whining and she’s not dumb. He’s describing (arguably quite arrogantly) that he should make her happy but he doesn’t. And they “don’t know why” sounds like undiagnosed depression. He doesn't say that he should make her happy, he just says that he is everything she should want/need/wish she could be. But he means nothing to her. Which implies that he's an unreliable narrator. He doesn't actually know what she wants/needs/wishes she could be. That's why he means nothing to her.

seasonal practices are good, and natural. We used to have to do things based on the seasons, but now because of horror dystopian capitalist hellscape, every month can be identical to every other. It's terrible, it's just another thing that unmoors us from anything that could give our lives any sense of stability or connection to anything larger. So yeah, decorate for Christmas. Have a Cadbury Creme Egg on Easter, watch spooky movies in October. Hell, get excited for PSLs coming back. do whatever you can to reconnect with the natural cycle of the seasons. Years pass, things are cyclical, you will die. Remember and embrace it.

Thinking critically about the media you consume isn't good or bad, it's a thing you can choose to do if you so wish. The idea that it's good, or that people should think critically about the media about they consume, is something people tell themselves to make themselves feel better about how much of their life is just consuming media.

The fact the media to you is literally just bright colors and loud noises is a sign that you're intellectually a toddler, not that you've achieved some sort of consumption nirvana. There's literally no difference between one person who spends their weekend catching up on the last season of Vanderpump Rules and just enjoys the show on a surface level and someone who spends their weekend catching up on the last season of Vanderpump Rules and enjoys it on a surface level while also thinking very critically about the messages it's presenting. You're just watching Vanderpump Rules.

You can't really do a straight comparison of the Hellboy comics and the Hellboy movies, because the Hellboy comics are this big sprawling universe with all kinds of offshoots that cover way more of a more interesting universe. But, the Hellboy movies do a much better job covering the material that they do than the Hellboy comics did covering that same material.
