Yes poor things.

>Most of it is a vulgar mess. In theory the makings of the story has the potential to be good; a girl learning to be herself in spite of her Frankenstein-like nature.
I think the premise is fine if you don't take it to some degenerate sexual angle.

>It's kinda worse actually, since it's like a reversal of the "adult in a child's body" that crap like the 1000 year old vampire loli trope is. The question of sexuality in such a situation is a concept that Star Trek explored far more maturely and without being tasteless.
Yes I know, but her brain is literally supposed to be that of ? year old or something, no clue how long after the operation the movie was supposed to start. I dunno I guess they just we're supposed to accept that her brain hyper develops because it's in an adult body.

>The director called criticism of this constant obsession with sexuality and ghoulish violence "prudish" but I disagree. There's many movies with sex or sexual scenes that have been accepted as such.
You know it wasn't even the graphic sex scenes that really bothered me and I watched it with my parents too lol. I guess it was because every sex scenes was played for laughs it wasn't as awkward as usual in movies.

>The fact that the film glosses over the interaction with other women, (especially at the brothel) is demonstrative that Lanthimos is treating her like a plot-device for the film, not a character, the only woman that has any significance is the token lesbian.
Her relationship with the mistress was weird as fuck. Seemed at first they were trying to imply like her naive feminism was going to make a difference at the brothel and then the mistress goes "hah black whore you aren't as popular you get punished for standing with her." Then Emma Stone gets an explanation of economic reality and basically told to STFU and service the johns and that seemed to be the final message on the sex stuff. Then they just sprinkle in some ridiculous scenes of her learning surgery and becoming socialist or whatever but nothing becomes of that.

>The story for this was a stereotypical 1970s slasher movie crossed with a psycho-biddy story… most movies of that genre suck TBH, and only a few are well known and considered good, usually because they have unique aspects that broke the mold despite having the usual 'group of people killed off by psycho' narrative Friday the 13th for example.
Yeah I know. I've seen a lot of these despite not really being into them because my friend was obsessed with grindhouse cinema stuff. My favorite is still Behind The Mask because it so accurately broke down the slasher tropes. Lol always the virgin is that one female who is going to survive. Ortega isn't a virgin and also partakes in the sin but they still setup that dichotomy in the beginning between her and the rest of them, she's pure hearted. These movies are boring as fuck tho because nothing happens for most of the runtime. You just see a mediocre "young people hanging out" story with some murder shoved in at the end. I actually stopped watching in the middle because I was so bored. I only mentioned it because like I said their seems to be a cuckwave in media right now. Makes sense since it is in the zeitgeist, but I just don't really remember media embracing cuckoldry as a positive thing before and all of a sudden it's everywhere.

Sounds accurate, the director's every film is obsessed with sex and the ideological overtones are all liberal in every film. The part with Bella 'learning socialism' amidst a brothel is like every other liberal writer and their succ-dem comprehension of leftism.

It's the internet, NTR-shit and so on has made the fetish more available to find and sexual frustrations can sometimes leak into new fetishes like this. Considering how healthy relationships are becoming rarer (in the Western hemisphere at least) it's not surprising the increased cheating and cuckshit is prevalent - its a reflection of the material social environment.

Has anyone trier any unusual fruit? I found the channel of a Yuppie who has traveled thr world eating all kinds of exotic tropic fruit or having it delivered.

https://youtube.com/channel/UChsbD6Clp-ZPqKwXJR3V7DQ

It makes me want to grow some unusual trees. I'm starting with a miracle berry tree. supposedly once eaten the berry causes sour things to taste sweet for thirty minutes. I am excited because it would allow me to basically give up on having sugar in soda. I could just drink lemonade without sugar, and eat bitter healthy food without suffering.

I'm also interested in growing Chico, a cinnamon tasting kind of apple. And there are a ton of sapote I'd like to try eating, and also snake fruit. The truth is most of the food and fruits we eat at super markets are only there because they're easy to produce or shelf long. The best kinds of fruit which are grown for personal taste by farmers are usually not mass producable.

That's why we as lefties need to take the time to plant more exotic fruit trees so those trees will always keep giving back. Then we can share the fruits without relying on supermarkets with the same damb flavors. We can literally eat more gourmet food once we fight back against big agriculture and capitalism.

There are for instance many kinds of bananas and mangoes with different flavors and textures but you'll never see them, when all the bananas at the market are literally from a tree that has been cloned millions of times. Check out his channel or google "exotic fruit" if you've never left your home and don't know what I'm talking about.

Cumrags, I crunched some numbers and apparently I've been going on average once per week to the gym. I do other sports, on average I go 11 times to do other sports and 4 to the gym.

I have seen some very good gains, but god damn, once a week is nothing! I was sure I was going twice a week on average. So as a next goal, I'll try to increase those numbers. The goal is to slowly increase it to 4 times a week, plus the other 11 sport activities keep them the same.

It's such an uphill battle. I can't believe I'm active half the month! It's actually pretty surprising for me. I've never been so active. The effort is well worth it, but god damn is it a shit ton of effort. From rotting in bed, depths of hell of depression, to managing to be active every other day.

>and if I remember correctly the Aborigine's also have hallucinogenic plants (I may be wrong, because it's been a long time).
Everybody has hallucinogenic plants/fungi. Hallucinogenic cactus is fairly specific though. The visions the gaang has in the foggy swamp are implied to be a product of the swamp's unique plant life (one of the few things Korra expands on).

As far as water tribe diversity goes, there's also the foggy swamp tribe, which seems to be based more on various uncontacted tribes than anything specific, although they do speak with cajun accents in the original English version of the show.

>I wonder what Toph would 'see'/do if she had drank the Cactus like Sokka?
Blind people can take hallucinogens. They don't generally get visual effects from what I understand because they don't use their brain that way. AFAIK neuroplasticity tends to reformat the visual processing part of the brain to use other sensory inputs more if you go blind. Some blind people can learn to do a basic version of echolocation (IIRC that was a source of inspiration for Toph).

That would also be a payoff to the globetrotting stuff throughout the series, bringing back the side characters for some kind of spirit vision he forcibly takes Ozai on. It would be like how Roku had done with Aang throughout the show, demonstrating Aang fully becoming the Avatar's role as a guide. The climax of Aang's spiritual character arc being just another neato power is a lot less interesting than some kind of empathy based power that uses his connection to the "world spirit" to "fix" Ozai by re-connecting him to everyone else. Even if he still technically wins just because the experience overwhelms and incapacitates Ozai until the comet passes.

This Soviet TV series is probably the best TV show ever made.
It is pure кино and deeply anti-fascist, anti-imperialist, and anti-USA. It's about a Soviet spy sabotaging peace talks between the OSS and Himmler (to allow the USA and Nazi Germany to team up on the USSR). It was made at the request of the head of the KGB. The tension and drama in this show is outstanding!

Mutants as allegory for real-world oppression falls completely the fuck apart as soon as you run into the fact that they have actual superpowers, which is not true of anybody IRL. Both perspectives in-universe make vastly more logical sense than their equivalent does IRL.
<Yes, mutants are "superior" to everyone else, because by definition they have what you could call the opposite of a disability, making "normal" people effectively disabled in comparison.
<Yes, mutants are actually dangerous to everyone else because so many of them have what are effectively weapons of mass destruction built into their biology which a very large percentage of them consistently use to hurt innocent people and do crimes against humanity.
No, allegory doesn't have to be 1:1 for it to work, but if you take the allegorical value of a story seriously when the power dynamics involved are this divorced from reality, you are a clown.

Idk, just didn't want to spoil the new episode for anyone watching so I thought marking it as spoiler would help.
I know that, in the comics, Magneto has been portrayed as being anti-Israel in some issues. And even through I agree that people project too much of their own struggle / politics in X-men, it's was kind of a predictable outcome, and I don't see it as negative (even if some people are a bit insufferable about it), it makes the series unique or at least a vanguard of this kind of story telling.

>>4121
I disagree. The "mutant struggle" works in universe because, like anon said it above, not all mutants are x-men. And even for those that are, a lot of mutations are more maleficial to their "hosts" and others around them than beneficial. In the real world, we have people with autism that are geniuses and others that are non-verbal.
Also, most mutants doing "crimes against humanity" a lot of times are products of people's hate on them and their kind. Even fucking Apocalypse has been given some kind of tragic backstory related to his powers (not that it entirely justifies what he does, but eh)
