  1. He-Man and the integrated feminine

    On a surface level, the He-Man movie attacks femininity in general, as the main character finds himself trapped in our world where he works in HR and is being reprimanded by a black conflict avoidant she/her as he's trying to find his sword to go back to Eternia or whatever his home world is called.…

  4. Obsession, Backrooms, and the new He-Man movie

    Obsession and Backrooms are interesting because at first glance it seems Backrooms has higher memetic payload and will suffuse itself into the culture more successfully. I've seen many people comment on the movie and its themes, it's a movie about how therapy bad, it's a movie about how AI bad, it's…

  5. The Steam AI Score

    @MattZeitlin: what's the origin and function of people (in my experience often academics but not always) saying "right?" after almost every sentence They're onto me.

  7. Was talking to my dentist and the conversation turned to his son

    Was talking to my dentist and the conversation turned to his son. Kid seems like a high IQ nerdy/obsessive type, he can focus and go deep on the things he cares about, but otherwise just coasts by on things he doesn't. Very much like me. I'm not sure if he was looking for any advice given that I'm similar…

    jreg's video is good and he isn't wrong, but I think that with artists especially there's a kind of selection effect going on that makes the analysis less useful than it would seem. An artist gets called such likely because they have facet extremes rather than domain extremes, and because such extremes…
