Species III (2004)

In today's review, I find that alien-human hybrids may be more than academic. As I attempt a #positive review of the TV sequel, Species III #RobinDunne #RobertKnepper #SunnyMabrey #SavannaFields #AmeliaCooke #JohnPaulPitoc #MichaelWarren #ChristopherNeame

There is liberating freedom to thought experiments, ideas so wild that they can only exist in our imagination. Yet, when faced with reality, any prepared response and planned action goes out the window, when reality is staring right back at you. In 2004, the hypothetical continuation of new ways of life may become the nightmarish reality of humanity, in Species III. Sara grows quickly, like her…

Electronic music labels set their goals as they establish what they should be all about and one can notice this fact succintly many times. I mean, the founders know the best as one could say, so A.G. Cook's pieces for his PC Music function as the possible templates for those who join him. To be honest, I'm unsure how hands-on is he, though you do notice after listening some stuff from the label he does have a lot of sway there. The tune on the link, for instance, might be his own, but he could also release this under one of his signings and no one would've batted an eye. Then again, the style he and his cohorts formed is so concretely abstract. Or should we rather say – abstractly concrete? Well, the brand remains highly recognized.

oh man, i've been thinking about that last reblog for ages now, i'm glad someone said it.

i feel like a lot of people maybe cling onto an autistic label too early because it can act as a "get out of jail free" card for their nerdy behaviour to be accepted. we see this a lot when "normies" talk about furry fandom, they often cite the fact that furries are neurodivergent as some kind of explanation for a behaviour they find weird, but "we can't make fun of them because they're all ND", rather than "we shouldn't make fun of them because that's just cruel regardless". as a result, i think you get a lot of socially awkward nerds latching onto an autistic identity even when it might not necessarily apply to them, because as patricia has said, they feel like it legitimises a behaviour they're embarassed about.

i feel like in an attempt to distance ourselves from sheldon-esque depictions of autism (that being the uber-smart, blunt depiction), we've gone too far in the other direction, and now the general image of autism is an adult kid who watches bluey and eats like they're at a child's birthday party, and people latch onto that bc in our bitch of an earth a lot of people just want to be kids again, and an autistic label ""lets"" them do that.

idk man, i think people should just be allowed to do whatever! regardless of whether or not they have a disability that "explains" it!! u should not feel like you need to meet a diagnostic criteria in order to just enjoy the things u enjoy. while people who self-diagnose incorrectly aren't necessarily "taking resources away" as such, they do end up warping the public's view of what autistic people are like. i feel like i'm increasingly seeing a lot of "i'm autistic, but *I* don't do that" ("that" often being being insensitive or blunt or react too strongly") and while yes autism is a spectrum and everyone experiences it differently (i love spicy food for example, when a lot of autistic people don't), i feel like there's a point where if you're saying "oh but i don't do that" a LOT - you may not actually be autistic. as a result it makes things harder for autistic individuals who struggle more with social interaction outside of just being a little shy.

i think now that we are giving leniency to adults who like cartoons bc of potential neurodivergence or (preferably) because it's the kind thing to do, i think we also gotta give the same to those autistic boys who make extremely long angry video essays about cartoons they hate. like, just to be fair.
