you ever start wondering about your cat’s genealogy? like ooooh I wonder if one of your ancestors was a mouser on a whaling vessel. maybe 175 years ago someone carried your ancestor up to that mountain you were born on, transported them by covered wagon in a wicker basket all the way to that old log cabin as a little girl’s birthday gift.

Talking about this movie on the internet is NOT going to be fun, I'll tell you that much.

I'm just hoping the cast finds films to be in that people actually WANT to see and not some petulant money-burning scream against the animation medium.

every time i see someone call kirk and spock the oldest ship, i'm filled with the urge to go "hmm actually the holmes and watson girlies have been here for a hundred years now", and i refrain because i know the natural conclusion of this game is gilgamesh and enkidu

its funny that a lot of conservative cultural sticking points right now are just slightly more advanced versions of what they believed as somewhat dull children, like "teachers are evil actually" and "vegetables are poison"

Look, I’m not saying you shouldn’t eat vegetables, but Cheetos and Nerds Gummy Clusters have never been recalled for having E. coli.

Food for thought.
