Conservatives can’t say that homers shouldn’t be around k1ds so instead they dump on natural traditional fatherhood and hope Buttgag takes some of the rhetorical splash damage
9000 character thread to dance around saying “homers shouldn’t be around k1ds” is just how Matt rolls
Buttgarg being on gh3y pater leave while Usa supply lines burn to the ground is on purpose to mock us all it would be nice if conservatives were brave enough to say so
Real talk folks know what p4t leave means for a homer & it ain’t wholesome
SRA
Conservative pundits will burn down their own house in the hopes their lefty enemies catch a bad allergic reaction to the smoke

A few years back I saw a zoomer review of “taxi driver” where the zoomer was shocked that Travis, who had a job, pretty big apartment (in nyc no less), and gf was considered a loser in the late 70s. A peak loser, even. The average young man in current year is much worse off. 1/
“Taxi driver” is what I call a “catcher in the rye” film. It continues the theme of “catcher” but fits it into its current year. Holden Caufield of “catcher” is even better off than Travis; being a rich kid in a boarding school. But with thr same issues (set to his era). 2/
“American psycho” is the next “catcher” film after taxi driver. Patrick Bateman is better off financially than Travis, reflecting the improved economy of Usa in the late 80s and early 90s. But his psychosis is worse. Shows how material wealth can carry the germ of mk insanity. 3/
The major films in the Alien series mirror the evolution (devolution?) of film, film culture and its audiences. 1/
“Alien” by Ridley Scott at its core is “2001 A Space Odyssey” with great practical gore effects but very few themes/tone Kubrick hadn’t already explored in his sci-fi opus. 2/
“Serious” sci-fi films in the 70s were expected to crib “”2001”: long shots, sterile white ship interiors, slow pace, emotionally distant actors, evil AI, evil gov/corp behind the scenes. Etc.
Ridley Scott’s brilliant film has them all. Like Kubrick’s. 3/
Your w*man can not give you permission to take a mistress. If you are weak and use her consent as an excuse to be a degenerate you will father a race of evil men.
This makes me lose respect for Gary as it sounds like Simpson’s comic book guy whining over the color of spirdermans costume in some film or something. Very weak.
Vin Diesel, the rock, and Jason statham are keeping f&f franchise rolling despite meh writing and a brand that changed its meaning wildly in the last decade. Movie stars still matter but corporations don’t want them to.
Hollywood tries to prop up unlikeable trash actors then wonder why Tom Cruise can make mission impossible sequel #55 a hit every damned year.
Sadly I hadn’t seen “Vertigo” before my Twin Peaks analysis below. It clearly has a major impact on twin peaks with the concept of doubling and twins. @HordeOrc even pointed out to me that S3 and vertigo have many similar shots.
A rarely analyzed aspect of twin peaks is how Donna doubles. James is very freaked out by it & during the original series there’s no clear answer 4it. Until the film when it’s revealed Donna went with Laura for one night to the roadhouse and had a psych break in prequel to series
In a way Donna is trying to become Laura in the same way Judy tries to become Madeline to please Scottie at the end of “Vertigo” and perhaps slips into becoming the cursed Carlotta Valdez. All thanks to MK trauma.
