#The Stoned Apocalypse

[ciaervo1]

The thing is that there is a way of perceiving existence that has no description in any symbology whatsoever. All the yogas, mantras, yantras, and religious cookbooks are nothing but a set of exercises which are supposed to put your head in that single place where the understanding takes place. The problem is, if you ain't got it, you ain't got it. And if you read about it, you can con yourself into believing that you do have it. Especially if you take a psychedelic. For a short time you sail into a self-induced Nirvana and think you really understand what the whole trip is about. But as Krishnamurti points out, "Reality is not an experience."

Au: Asagiri Gen + Apocalypse

[thehotgrandparent]

Okay, the question seems stupid, but I ended up marathoning Theo Walking Dead with my cousin, in a zombie apocalypse, how do you think the characters would be? My bet is that Berry is one of the great survivors or if the virus infects Doppelgänger the biggest threat

These are my personal headcanons. Also this gets long 💀

Berry - Best survivor, but he does have to be careful because it still affects doppelgangers (though a bit differently than humans)

Ansel - There is a 50/50 chance that he’ll survive or not, we’ll see 💔

Roman - He would defo be able to live decently long in the apocalypse

Lois - She would live decently long as well. She and Roman would work together fsfs

Peachman Bros - I think they would live well as long as Robertsky doesn’t fuck up in some way by accident. Though Albertsky would be able to help make sure he doesn’t

Angus - I feel like he would get bit sooner or later because he was being a dumbass 💀

Sverchzt Twins - Selenne and Elenois are quite seriously famous and I feel like they’re kind of spoiled, so it would definitely be a change. They would get lucky, but soon one or both would likely get bit

Arnold - I feel like he and Gloria would be able to work together to live well, but they’d be super cautious about people

Gloria - As mentioned above, she and Arnold would be able to work together, but they would be incredibly cautious of people because others would likely try to steal from them

Izaack - Similarly to Angus, I feel like he would be bit after a while. He’s a yapper and a loud one at that, so there’s a good chance he’ll attract infected/zombies

Margarette - She has no haters (unless you count infected), and literally no one would try and steal from her. Margarette helps others and because of that, people tend to help her to repay her

Nacha - She would defo be able to live well as long as she has somewhere safe to be. Don’t worry about food because she can make the weirdest/tasteless food ever and make it good

Anastacha - She would likely just follow her mom around and try and help out. Defo would need someone to help her because she’s not that strong, but she sure as hell is resourceful

Mia - I feel like Mia (and her fiancé) would make a badass duo (same with a couple of others as well ngl). She would let out her inner anger from teaching onto the infected zombies

Dr. W. Afton: He, along with Mia, would make a badass duo. Though while Mia is letting her anger out, he’s just tending to the place they’re staying at

Francis: Bro can fist fight zombies because of how much the milk crates probably weigh, but he would probably get infected while looking for weapons because he would have to use his fists

Steven: He would absolutely survive the apocalypse. Bro has experience from things like camping and shit, and he has experience living in the wild. That shit would be important

Mclooy: Similarly to Steven, Mclooy would beat the shit out of zombies. Zombies who?

Alf - I don’t think he’d survive 😭 he’s elderly, I don’t think he could live with infected zombies trying to eat him, especially in the early days.

Rafttellyn - Similarly to Alf, I don’t think she would survive. She (and also Alf) just aren’t built for the apocalypse

i always forget how short marky is compared to everyone else.....

I hate being cynical about my faves but... Every mother has her favorites I guess

At the same time, in Apocalypse, she did turn to Madison first

So caught up with the boops I forgot today is the apocalypse anniversary

[ciaervo1]

As with so much of the California scene, no one there seemed to have the historical perspective to see themselves not as a cure for society's ills, but merely one of its more vulgar products.

This book has so many good quotes!

Platoon (1986, Oliver Stone)

24/03/2024

Platoon is a 1986 film, written and directed by Oliver Stone, which deals with his time in Vietnam as a volunteer during the war and is inspired by the real experiences the director had between 1967 and 1971 during his military service.

The film won 4 Oscars out of 8 nominations and Oliver Stone was also awarded the Silver Bear in Berlin as best director. In 1998 the American Film Institute placed it in eighty-third place in the ranking of the one hundred best American films of all time, while ten years later, in the updated list, it dropped to eighty-sixth place. In 2019, it was chosen for preservation in the National Film Registry of the United States Library of Congress.

The bloodiest episode, as in many other films dealing with the Vietnam War, is inspired by the most atrocious event of that conflict, known to history as the My Lai massacre, in which American soldiers committed atrocities including rape of very young girls, indiscriminate killings of innocent civilians, destruction of the homes and resources of the inhabitants, believed to be allies of the Viet Cong, despite there being no evidence. From this perspective, the figure of the platoon commander, Lieutenant Wolfe, both for his inability to control his men and for other characteristics, can be traced back to the main person responsible for My Lai, the then US Army Lieutenant William Calley, convicted to several years of military detention for that very affair.

Due to an error by Lieutenant Wolfe, who gives wrong coordinates via radio, the platoon is decimated by friendly artillery.

In the last war action of his volunteer service, Chris escapes a deadly ambush by the Viet Cong who almost completely annihilate the platoon and the subsequent American bombing with napalm.

Initially Hollywood snubs the script as many producers are of the opinion that what three is to say about the Vietnam War has already been reported in highly successful films such as Apocalypse Now and The Deer Hunter, however the strength of Stone's script still attracts some producers who see enormous potential in him. He was then assigned to write a screenplay for another film, Stone accepted and wrote Midnight Express in 1977, thanks to which he won the Oscar for best non-original screenplay (first statuette for Stone) a fact that made all of Hollywood understand the Stone's enormous potential; it was therefore not difficult for him to find the producer to begin work on Platoon.

The film was shot, following the great example of Apocalypse Now, director Francis Ford Coppola's masterpiece, on the island of Luzon, in the Philippines, starting in February 1986. The film's production was almost canceled due to the political upheavals in country, due to Ferdinand Marcos, dictator of the country. Upon arrival in the Philippines, the cast members underwent a two-week course of intensive training by Dale Dye (former Marine captain during the Vietnam War and interpreter of Captain Harris), during which they had to dig trenches and suffer forced marches and night "ambushes".
