The Mirror-Faced Grim Reaper in Meshes of the Afternoon (1943), dir. Maya Deren, Alexander Hammid
“This film is endowed with an acute sense of restlessness and alienation; reflecting this uncanny estrangement in the doubling, tripling and quadrupling of its central character, and in its cyclic narrative, a structure that seems condemned to repetition. Why is the hooded Death figure constructed as a kind of mirror? Are we dealing with Nietzsche’s notion of ‘eternal return’? (…) You could go on forever about the meaning buried in this particular work. It invites and eludes analysis.” – CINEMA AND DREAM-LOGIC IN MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON
This Thanksgiving, Joe Biden will pardon two turkeys, according to tradition. However, he will not call for a ceasefire.
Let that sink in. He will spare the lives of two birds, but he will not spare the lives of millions of people.
On a holiday that has its origins in the genocide of indigenous people, he will spare two birds and continue to fund another Trail of Tears.
Please continue contacting your reps.
(No, don’t tell me he’s the lesser evil.)

“Tunak Tunak Tun” (Punjabi: ਤੁਣਕ ਤੁਣਕ ਤੁਣ) or “Tunak”, is a bhangra/pop love song by Indian artist Daler Mehndi released in 1998. At the time, critics complained that Mehndi’s music was only popular due to his videos that featured beautiful women dancing. Mehndi’s response was to create a video that featured only himself.
also gosh the lyrics to this are actually really sweet & great i never realised
happy tunak tunak tun tuesday
saying you honest to god think scott pilgrim is a child predator, or worse, that the comic condones scott’s actions, is like one of the fastest ways to tell me you didn’t actually read the comic
like to be clear him dating knives is Bad, when you read the comic and go “what the fuck is up with this sketchy 23 year old” that is the intended reaction,
but like
everyone knows (even scott (as much as scott’s clueless ass can know anything)) that this is just a fake relationship scott isn’t actually invested in, just something he’s going through because of his whole arrested development thing
he never really shows any actual interest in knives at all, is actively disgusted by even the thought of intimacy with her
he ditches her for ramona without a thought the first chance he gets lmao
like yeah it is incredibly shitty and gross all around, thank you for noticing, that’s what the story wants you to notice because it’s part of scott’s character arc of “growing up” and “becoming less of a failure of a human being”
this isn’t a story about how dating highschoolers is cool and everyone should do it, and the reading that scott is a pedophile and the story condones his actions is just straight up not supported by the text,
idk what to tell you maybe stop treating characters in stories like they’re actual people you need to write a callout post about
he wants to be able to say he has a girlfriend but when she tries to kiss him he jumps back, this is volume 1 shit. why does he react like that? could it be because in that moment he is forced to realize he passively encouraged her feelings for him, and that makes him a sketchy older guy taking advantage of a young woman’s feelings? and he doesn’t want to think of himself that way, he’s a chill awesome popular guy!
also to add to this… it’s pretty evident that scott does not see knives as a real relationship, because to him knives is not really… a person. she’s a way for him to recapture the past, high school dating out of high school. the reason why he struggles to break up with her is because he has to acknowledge her as a full human being with thoughts and feelings of her own to do that.
i swear i’m gonna start writing a reading comprehension guide for this comic if people don’t chill this second lmao
Yeah he isn’t dating her because he’s attracted to her he’s dating her to feel better about himself he’s a loser not a predator
found a dude who does VR cruisin and boozin and im IN LOVE
