I mean in retrospect I have to say that Utena does hit great.....though the black rose stuff is still not the best. Kinda feel like rewatching it now. I think all of us itt should enter a pact where we will all work to destroy any doublegangers of said pact members.

At least it's coming back soon....still waiting on Chainsaw Man, Hell's Paradise, Dorohedoro, and One Punch Man. @Bartimaeus First of all, you have a doppelganger here under the name "Bartimeus". If you want help defeating him you've got my sword. Less importantly.....I got to say I watched the magic emi credits again and maybe it's the more Lynchian vibe of the OVA but I don't like the first one very much. Based on what you've written about the show I can read a lot of stuff into it, but I think it does communicate Emi's sadness at not having gotten good at "fake" magic and struggling to do it instead of effortlessly doing it in her BRACK RADY slightly older magical girl form. On a more technical level, the OVA also seems to be more on beat with the song to me if that makes sense.

Taken solely as the 2 minute clip you posted, I like it. It seems like the magician girl is realizing that she's just a dream of a young(er) child, one that disappears as the kid becomes a teenager in a much different reality than what she dreamed of. And then haunting refrain at the end of the girl at her desk invokes the kind of longing for her childhood dreams in the face of the reality of (young) adulthood. For me it hits like a more wholesome speedrun of Mulholland Drive, but I didn't watch the anime or OVA. What I did watch was the most recent Dandadan. Boy howdy I wish other shows paid their animators better because it's nice to not see PS2 era CGI. Also the idea of an anatomical model from a science class coming to life to search a dump for a discarded anatomical model that it's in love with is honestly not anything I would have put on a bingo card but here we are. Not the worst surprise of 2024.

Yes, is that a bad thing though?

I have to say that everything I've heard about United Healthcare since someone shot the CEO honestly made me curious why it took this long for someone to try to kill him. Sort of a weird curiosity in the US where the rampant violence doesn't trickle up to bizness guys, politicians, and other members of the ruling class. And while I would never condone murder.....I can say that it's not as gut wrenching to see a cartoonishly evil company man get shot than a bunch of school kids.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/how-syria-rebels-stars-aligned-assads-ouster-2024-12-08/ So the first picture in the article features a guy with an ISIS flag and yet there's no mention of ISIS in the article at all? Huh, that's a little weird.

Well Israel helped Hamas to undercut the PLO so probably ok.

Rhonda Sanctimonious has been running for president since he was in middle school and anything he does is purely based on what at the time seems to be the best way to get there. I think being a Trump loyalist is a requirement to getting anywhere in the Republican party and being able to shift the blame for losing Florida in a hypothetical anti-Trump blue wave would be better than sticking it out in a job he's already tried to get out of. My bet is that if it's offered he takes it.

I don't think anyone but perhaps the most braindead rules based law and order guy is surprised that Biden pardoned his son. There's no way in hell Biden is going to do anything but retire after the start of the year and he may as well flex the benefits while he has them. And while I don't think he cares about political consequences, and neither do the dems generally or else they maybe wouldn't have spent the last 4 months hanging out with Liz Cheney, by the time the next election season hits Hunter Biden will have evaporated from the collective consciousness.

How naughty But I think all of this just shows how the trogs get big mad over nothing at all. It does not appear that the game is preventing you from playing as a fella or a lady, yet in the deranged minds of outrage addicted terminally online reprobates you'd think Avowed would be pumping your avatar with fantasy HRT before forcing you to use neopronouns. Truly an alternative reality, they should make their own games if they want a safe space.

Look, we need to have enough toggles so everyone can have a curated reality. Ya gotta have pronouns and no pronouns, gore and no gore, bombing hospitals and not bombing hospitals.

Oh man you should totally read it. "Elon Musk is also involved in this controversy" - Elon is butthurt and spends too much time on twitter It somehow completely misses a reference to an almost decade old meme because the author is so butthurt about teh pronouns "Forced DEI in gaming" - bruh they got elves And the cherry on top is they're still gonna stan the game.

I've got a 2070 and 16gb. Time to black friday. That's not a bad idea. I imagine that'd be a way to pay for a new PC, there's never not a demand for guns in my state.

Ok that's a different thing all together. Never pass up an opportunity to insult the incels, I'd tell them to go to hell but that's probably a nicer time than being in the comments of Matt Walsh videos. And the snowflakes are a good indicator of media literacy being terribly low, many such cases. The only things I've reported to the mods is treating wizardry as a laughing matter and images from a Polish neo-nazi site.
