If you have ever been tempted by a Paleozoic Pal, like a a stuffed trilobite or a full size eurypterid body pillow, now's the time to buy one, before they and a really lovely little museum are gone for good 😭😭😭

1949 Bad Luck Blackie, a Tom & Jerry short about a white cat who hires a black cat who brings bad luck when it crosses the path of a tormenting dog. Black cat gives white cat a whistle, whenever white cat blows the whistle the black cat will appear and walk in front of the dog, and then something instantly falls from the sky and smashes the dogs head. The dog does not continue walking forwards, so its literal path is never crossed, implying concrete vectors of motion that exist outside of intent. Then the black cat gets painted white, and its trick no longer works, indicating it is not the genetics or traits (inherited or acquired) of the black cat that bring falling objects but the appearance of the cat. This is reenforced when the white cat dives into a can of black paint and instantly takes on the abilities of the black cat in re crossing the dogs path and subsequent falling objects. But then the dog accidentally swallows the whistle, which gives him the hiccups. And now even just the act of blowing the whistle brings heavy objects falling from the sky to smash the dog, sans any involvement of any cat, black or otherwise. Any meaning has been removed from the premise of the entire universe by an idiot god who can be fooled by housepaint and it ends in a place of madness and shifting symbols that mean nothing, where no pattern exists for the mind to cling to and the only rule is pain.

who up concerned that they might “become lost in the world of signs and forget the things they signify”

[skamortuus]

the world doesnt make men feel beautiful and make women feel ugly. it makes women feel they literally exist for men’s use. that is why redefining beauty is idiotic. why are we trying to expand the parameters in which you can exist in to be deemed fuckable by men when the problem is this tyrannical idea in the first place

“Where do I stand on the – on the WHAT? The “Transgender Question”? Well for one thing, sir, I recall the last few usages of that particular phraseology. A group of millions is not a question – I have not yet finished speaking – not a question, but a demographic.“

“The Romans had their castrated priestesses, the Hindus their Hijras, but my god, let us take to the barricades because Uncle Al came to Thanksgiving in a skirt and pantyhose! It’s the province of rubes. Hayseed reactionaries and the worst effluvia of America’s suburban colon.”

“And Chapelle! My god, Chapelle. Embarrassing as only a true great can become in his declining years – I speak here with complete self-awareness; kindly hold your barbs – as he tires of innovation and falls back into the soporific cushion of the lowest common denominator!”

“One joke stretched until you can hear its joints popping like some poor bastard broken on the rack. “Oh my car has pronouns, I identify as a bird, I’m trans-Chinese.” The laziness of it – shameful. You should see the transgendered roast themselves; there’s true scorched earth.“

lots of stories about being possessed by demons and forced to do evil things against your will, not many about being possessed by angels and forced to do good things against your will
