    welcome to the early 2010s. i will be your tour guide for the evening — nice to meet you, nice to meet you — and we will be crossing along the genesis, development and eventual regression of the cultural phenomenon of this era in culture. please feel free to take as many pictures as you want, but always be mindful that the guns are always loaded with live ammunition, so i would advise you to be cautious during oral sex...…

    i smell the yearnings to be a good little shitpost — shitpost: the movie, perhaps, to act as a precursor to whatever michael bay's skibidi toilet movie will be (no chance of emulating how hard that would go by virtue of bay's talents, though) — but not the funny sort of shitpost, or even the completely surreal sort of shitpost (the nokia ringtone, constant vine boom/liveleak circle kind that i personally find hilarious), but the superliberal tiktok/reddit posts that have…

    the eisenstein close-up is something i find unique, incredibly special in the context of all other masters of movies and their own brands of close-ups. whether these faces are holding their heads up high towards the sky, or look down at the ground in great contemplation, or even staring directly at the audience and breaking every conceptual wall there is, their faces... they're constantly illuminated. they're illuminated on all sides; no particualar direction of light is given, which means that…

    o sickly commonwealth, rise from your tombstone playground and die in a blaze of glory! go the way of the ancient dinosaurs and face the hellfire from the sky, that which has been readied for this precise moment by our forebears and their sins of surveillance, information-mongering and greed. see the world…

    THE TRAGEDY OF PAUL MUAD’DIB ATREIDES, ACT 2: THE SPILLING OF SHARED BLOOD 

    willingly lose your head to the music; you may lie to yourself that your fate is preordained, and though there’s truth to those words, you know deep down that your desire controls this worm. you are the next level of evolution, and god help anyone who stands in your way; they do not hear the music as you do.

    religious fervour as an asset — here comes…
