#trump is a disgusting pig of man

[ominous-faechild]

Hi, guys. It's me, Barlowe.

No fun aesthetics, none of that. We're addressing the election today.

I never thought I'd be political on my blog—and, in fact, avoided it except for where I really wanted to get things out to everyone, like Project 2025—but circumstances have forced me to step up.

For those who want to see my actual Writeblr intro, you can find it here. This post is getting pinned to my blog for a while.

So, hi. Barlowe here.

I'm an autistic lesbian with health issues I'm too poor to treat.

I'm currently in a relationship with a Mexican-American woman.

My older sister, although we don't really get along, is trans.

I do not care about my relationship with her. What matters is that she is in legitimate danger. Because of the results of the election.

My girlfriend? She's in danger, too. She had people yell and spit at and shove her during Trump's first term, and she had little to nobody she could turn to for help. Like me, she's chock-full of struggles and disabilities. So much so that I almost want to say she's had it even worse than me in that regard.

But I won't be comparing struggles here; that's not the point.

My little sister is still a teenager. She lives in Florida.

As a 13-year-old, she had people call her a slut for wearing a tank top.

A tank top.

It's Florida. It's hot.

She was 13.

Do you know the amount of rage I felt when I heard that?

I'm a nonviolent af grown-ass adult and I wanted to track down those kids to beat them tf up. I wanted to teach them a lesson to never treat my little sister like that again.

But they aren't the source of the problem, do you know that?

The source of the problem is their parents. The media. The internet, and echo chambers full of disgusting, sexist pigs who reduce women—and girls—to nothing more than sex objects for men.

“Grab 'em by the pussy.”

Did we all forget that?

Did we all forget how disgusting that pathetic excuse for a man is?

Did we ignore all of his crimes, all of the things he's done?

Why? Because Harris is a black woman? Because she's mixed? Because she's flawed? Because she didn't deserve to win?

Listen to me.

That's not good enough.

Maybe she didn't deserve to win. But do you know what?

Nor did Trump.

Trump deserves to be IN JAIL.

He's racist, he's xenophobic, he's sexist, a rapist, a homophobe, a convicted felon, and so, so much more.

And yet here we are.

How did millions of people vote a man like that into office?

I would've gone running for the hills at just ONE of those things?

... but that's not the point.

We're here now, except... things aren't quite as clear-cut as we've been led to believe.

There's an interesting saying that goes something like:

“People most often expect from others what they know of themselves.”

And what did Trump most love screaming at the hills?

That the votes of 2020 were rigged.

And he said to “find votes”.

Well, it looks like he found them.

Or, at the very least, he's gotten rid of Democratic ones.

There were bomb threats called in on democratic-leaning polling locations, machines “didn't recognize” ballots, democratic ballots were rejected for inane reasons, and ballots were burned.

Do you think a man so obsessed with so-called “rigging” wouldn't engage in it himself? Whether he truly believed it or not—which, it's been proven that he didn't, and only claimed so to rile up his cultish followers, causing January 6th—who's to say he wouldn't do it himself to “even out the playing field” so to speak? Who's to say a man like him wouldn't claim election fraud 4 years in advance just to pull the wool over all of our collective eyes later?

I'm not saying that he hasn't won.

But I am saying it's not goddamn over.

There's petitions you can sign demanding for recounts [EDIT: THEY DELETED THE LAST ONE!!!! THIS IS A REPLACEMENT!!!]. You can contact Harris to beg her to not take this lying down. You can—and SHOULD—contact the White House directly.

Listen to me.

Check out Project 2025.

My sweet, lovely girlfriend has been shoved and verbally abused—harassed into literal agoraphobia that she's already slipping back into just because of the election's results—by people who ate up the hateful rhetoric of the Right.

She lives in a Blue State.

Even while my trans sister was male-presenting, she was treated differently—coldly—before she cut her hair short again. Suddenly, people would smile at her on the streets again.

She's since started transitioning, and what about now?

My little sister was physically bullied while she lived in Texas.

They, too, are lucky I was never around for that.

Now, in Florida, I doubt she fares much better.

My friend, who's a teacher in Texas, has been forced to publish under a pseudonym and try their complete and utter best to hide their writing so they're not fired for her job. Why?

Because the MC's nonbinary.

My friend is terrified for their son, growing up in a world like this. They're terrified to have another kid—which they want—because 'what if it's a daughter?' They don't want to bring a girl into a world like this.

And they don't want to risk a pregnancy that can end their life.

People all across the states are being forced to give birth to the children of their rapists... or die because of complications in the womb.

Babies are being forced to die slowly in the womb rather than humanely, through “abortion”, after it's clear they're dying, but “still have a heartbeat.”

Queer folk, PoC, and immigrants have been targeted and live in fear for their lives. They deal with VERY real violence and harassment, even if you don't see it yourself.

This is all the lasting effects of Trump's first term as president.

He and his followers spread a hateful rhetoric strongly aligning with Hitler's before the man took over. They fearmonger and sell out minorities as the reason everything's wrong in this country.

They make minorities a scapegoat, and make them into targets.

Regardless of the actual results of the election, these so-called “victories” for the Right only embolden the bigots to act more and more egregiously.

It doesn't matter if you're “one of the good ones”. It doesn't matter if “most Republicans aren't like that”. It doesn't matter what you think.

What matters is reality.

And reality is: a Trump victory means victory for the extremists.

They ran with it the first time.

What do you think they're going to do with it this time?

This all isn't to sound doomeristic, though—I think we still have a chance. I think Trump's rigged this thing for a reason. I think we need to push for this stuff to be exposed.

But it's going to take everything we have, guys.

Sure, maybe Harris isn't perfect. She's questionable af in a LOT of places, and I personally hate her stances on Palestine. I'm sure most of all of us do. But, do you really think Trump will be any kinder?

Do you really care to doom everyone else off of the miniscule chance that he'll decide to help them?

Listen: Harris isn't trying to turn the States into the next fascist dictatorship. Trump is. Harris isn't showing EVERY single “preparing for a genocide” red flag. Trump. IS.

Petition for recounts. Tell Harris not to give up.

And contact the White House telling them this is not acceptable.

Complain about the bomb threats. Complain about the lost ballots. Complain about the tampered-with ballots. Complain about the burned ballots, complain about the rejected ballots, and don't stop fighting tooth-and-nail like Trump kicked and screamed after the 2020 election.

Don't give up. It's not too late.

And, to my followers?

Let me make this abundantly clear.

If any of you voted for Trump? If any of you wanted him to win, or for Harris to lose?

Then get the fuck off my blog.

I don't give a shit what kind of relationship we've had in the past, or if you liked my writing, or any of that.

A loss for Harris is a win for Trump—it's that simple.

You aren't morally superior for choosing not to vote for Harris no matter WHAT reason you had for it. You aren't morally superior for finding her dubious, for hating her views on Palestine, or for refraining from choosing either of the two evils.

You're a coward.

An enabler, comforting yourself by telling yourself “at least you didn't have a hand in {whatever turned you against her}”.

Sure, you didn't kill the sheep.

But you left the gates open for the wolves.

And that makes you responsible for their deaths.

You knew the risks of leaving the gate open. But you did it anyway.

And, to any of you who voted for Trump?

I want you to know I HATE you.

No matter what, no matter who, no matter WHY.

I consider you all equally responsible for anything and everything that happens as a result of his presidency if it comes to be.

It isn't “just politics”.

It isn't something you can just wipe your hands clean of.

Maybe you don't have to face the consequences for the things that come from this, but I, the people I love, and countless others do.

It's not “just politics”.

It's our fucking lives.

And I hope, one of these days, you learn to regret it as much as the rest of us.

So, to those of you who left the gate open?

Do yourself a favor.

Get the fuck off my blog before I find out you did.

I am not contacting you to harass I just wanted to clarify myself: I’m not a trump supporter I said that for attention seeking purposes all I just wanted was attention wether it be good attention or negative attention I didn’t care because I don’t know how to make friends properly since all my life I’ve been sheltered /monitored by parents due to my disability

Trump imo is actually a scumbag /Rapist & a creep that gets away with his crimes because he’s rich and I saw what he said about his own daughter “perhaps if ivanka wasn’t my daughter I’d be dating her” is sick and messed up and I’m a raging liberal/hippie if you will I’m just in presence of people who support trump /My parents both voted for him I did not. Not once did I vote for that orange pig 🐽.

I despise Donald trump truly if I could’ve voted I would’ve voted for Kamala Harris , she’s not the best either but I know she’s better than trump. I heard there trying to take away gay marriage and I do not support that I support the lgbt community - I HATE TRUMP

People who willingly support trump are idiots , Not to mention Elon doing the n*zi salute and then people copying him doesn’t sit right with me that barely anybody is talking about this issue. And that Elon is trying to erase what he did Like what the actual fuck man. Trump and Elon are total scumbags and deserve to rot . I may not be the BEST person but I am no trump supporter I pretended to be one to get in my parents good graces and simply because I wanted attention be it bad attention or good attention but I know that’s wrong so im sorry for claiming to be a trump supporter I truly am not he disgusts me . I know that was stupid Of me to say and I’m allowed to have my own political views because of free will. So I’ll do my best to stay educated .. and on the left side of politics ,fuck trump & fuck the government man..

Sorry about talking about trump like he’s the “best” when in reality he’s a rotten bitter orange 🍊 I will never support Donald trump i have queer family members and a queer brother whom I fully support. He is very much accepted by me and my parents. So I’ll just do my best to stay on the left side of politics 💙 if I would vote I would’ve voted for Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris anyone is better than That POS orange orangutan mf.

Just... LEAVE ME ALONE ok? STOP SENDING ME MESSAGES!!! NO MORE ANON AND NO MORE OF YOU WITH DIFFERENT NAMES!! I don't care if you are a Trump or Kamala supporter I don't care ANYTHING about you ok? YOU'RE RUIN MY LIFE, I almost lose a very important friend because you keep sending them your crappy messages!!! When you gonna learn that your actions has consequences, consequences that affects other people, like me, don't you get it? I'M SICK AND FED UP FROM YOU!! It's been almost 1 year you keep sending me messages of hate and now this?

Leave me alone, leave Treen alone too!

I hate to been this rude but you asked for it, I've been in other fandoms, I got hate, even worse words from haters, but not this kind of harassment where I don't have a chance to block you because you create another account and write me again... the only thing worse than you is the south park fandom...

And PS: I don't know how to make friends either and I'm disabled too, I'm always with my mom because of it, because I'm alone and I even have a bully in college, and of course I want attention too it's part of my disability, but... I don't go harass people by sending hate and then apologize half a year and doing this like a loop! I don't want to lose the very few and important friends I have because they get mad, fed up and sick because of you! You want to make friends? (I'm not the correct person because like I said I don't know how to make friends either) then you can start by making 1 account with one name, without sending hate and then apologize for half a year! Not get obsessed with someone! That's not a way for make friends! You can start again but not with us, like I said just leave us alone, forget about our existence! Forget!

Pig Man (TV Tropes)

Kramer: Hey, I just saw a pig man. A pig man! You know, he was sleeping and then he woke up and he looked at me and... and he made this horrible sound, this [makes screeching noises]. George: Kramer, what the hell are you talking about? Kramer: I'm talking about a pig man! I walked into the wrong room, and there he was! George: A pig man. Kramer: A pig man! Half pig, half man!

— Seinfeld, "The Bris"

A combination of a man and a pig. He doesn't have to be a genetic hybrid, sometimes he's just a pig-like humanoid alien.

In fantasy settings they may be a rare kind of were-animal, or just a pig-faced monster. Sometimes the work will call the Pig Man an "orc" — this probably stems from the fact that orcs are often depicted as pug-nosed, tusked creatures and because of Dragon Quest, an RPG series that was and is extremely popular in Japan depicting them as Pigmen based off an illustration in 1st edition Dungeons & Dragons. There's also the similarity between the words "orc" and "pork", strengthening the connection (even though the two words are etymologically unrelated). In more futuristic settings, they'll be the product of genetic manipulation; these are usually human with "pig" added to them, but it could be the other way around. Either way, they're used as grunts, they have little intelligence, and they can be slaughtered by the hundreds with no moral implications.

In science-fiction settings, it makes a certain amount of sense that the pig is the preferred species for this type of gene splicing: pigs and humans are anatomically similar enough on the inside that pigs may soon be grown as human organ donors. The similarities even extend to behavior, pigs being omnivores with furless skin and similar behavior in the wild, enjoying beer as much as the next guy.

Due to their association with Orcs and to negative cultural associations of their animal nature, pig men are often cast as villains. Heroic pig men also exist, although they typically have somewhat slovenly characteristics and function as antiheroes. Heroic pig men typically stand for men in their late forties, and as such tend to have jaded or hard boiled personalities. They may also have positive characteristics which are typically associated with this demographic, such as jolliness and caring parental traits. The villains in these cases will typically also be cruel, vain, narcissists; Uncle Pey'j from Beyond Good & Evil who went up against trumped up military officials (among others), and Porco Rosso who went up against a cocky fascist fighter pilot are examples of anti-heroic pigs with awful adversaries.

If the character is young then they will stand for a chubby child and may be subject to bullying if they are sympathetic characters or be bullies if they are non-sympathetic. In fantasy stories heroic pig men will typically be turncoats who have defected from an evil force. For this reason they may go through ostracization or racial stigmatization. Tragic is the story of the Pig Man who escapes his evil masters and tries to live a human life; they'll usually be outcasts who will never know what it's like to be loved.

As the trope name implies, a character of this type will almost always be a Pig Man, similar to how cats are usually female. There are a number of reasons for this, the most prominent being that both pigs and men are stereotypically boorish and disgusting, and of course pigs are not considered the most attractive animal; Beauty Is Never Tarnished after all! If there is a whole race of Pig People you might see some Pig Women in the background but don't expect them to play an especially vital role. If there are any, expect Cute Monster Girl to be in full effect; they'll be less a humanoid pig and more a Big Beautiful Woman with pink skin, pig ears, a pig tail and maybe a cute little snout.

In yet another (almost entirely gay) sense, anthropomorphic pigs and boars can be very potent fetish appeal in furry Bara. This is somewhat rare in the Western Furry Fandom (and any cultural context where pigs are culturally considered unappealing to look at), but is more abundant in the Japanese Kemono community, where it peaked during the Year of the Pig in 2007, and again in 2019. Much of the appeal is in the highly masculine Unkempt Beauty of Pig Men portrayals (sometimes overlapping with Ugly Cute), having much in common with the aesthetic ideals of The Bear community.

Subtrope of Beast Man. Compare Half-Human Hybrid, Full-Boar Action, Government Conspiracy and Corrupt Corporate Executive, for when the pig person is a Gluttonous Pig. Oh, also Beauty Equals Goodness, Mooks and Hollywood Evolution.

See also:

Full-Boar Action, for swine that aren't part human and are crazy anyway.

Messy Pig for portrayals of pigs as slovenly, which can be a neutral trait- but if it's as a negative or sinister trait, it overlaps with Uncleanliness Is Next to Ungodliness.

Perverted Pig, for more lecherous and creepy portrayals of porcines.

Police Pig, for (often negative) comparisons between swine and police officers.

Brainy Pig, for pigs depicted as intelligent.

Has nothing to do with the title character of The Pigman. Or Pikmin either, for that matter.

Birds of a fucking feather.

Tr*mp has been known as a pig who thinks women are nothing but objects ever since his first term. There's been a well-documented list of HIGHLY CREDIBLE SEXUAL ASSAULT ALLEGATIONS AGAINST HIM FOR SEVERAL YEARS. And in those years, that list has ACTIVELY GROWN.

(TWENTY-EIGHT VICTIMS AND COUNTING SO FAR.)

SHOCK! Now that there's an undeniable PREDATOR back in office, he wants to try and hire OTHER PREDATORS to help him circle his fucking wagons?! GOLLY-GEE, WHAT A PLOT TWIST, HUH?

I know that some people in the States are willfully ignorant. (How else would a man like Tr*mp have a practical cult of desperate hangers-on to lick his shoes?) And yet, somehow, I have trouble seeing how anyone could actually be surprised by something like this.

But then again...well, the far-right isn't all that secretive about just how little they care for things like basic human decency. Even after so much time and development has passed through this country, only a small amount of things have actually changed. All forms of hate still run riot here: racism, ableism, homo/transphobia...and, of course, sexism and r*pe culture.

We need to keep fighting.

We're not entirely powerless, but that's only if we keep working together.

If you're in the States, please, PLEASE do what you can to help push back against this. Sign petitions, contact your representatives, whatever you can afford to do. DON'T STOP TALKING. KEEP SPREADING INFORMATION. BLOW THE WHISTLES AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE.

That disgusting, raw-hotdog-looking scumbag is on the very last part of his career. So let's make it a living hell for him and his cronies.

[aajjks]

You know I feel so pathetic cause I had planned to do the pending work but now I can't, the relatives left the day before yesterday but idk what I did the next 2 days after that. I have been procrastinating and it doesn't feel good at all cause I really wanted to get done with all this before I get back to my normal routine on the 11th of this month. It's so infuriating and then I was on Twitter this morning and the tweets I came across were so fucking disgusting I wanna get rid of every single man from the face of earth or anywhere a woman is. These monsters don't deserve to breathe the same air as us. Fuck Trump and his supporters and FUCK MEN IN GENERAL WITH ALL THOSE RAPE “Jokes” I HOPE THEY GET TO LIVE THE WORST LIFE EVER FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE AND I GENUINELY HOPE THEY LONG LIVE TO SUFFER EVERY SINGLE DAY!

I am so sorry and I really get your frustration because the tweets are so fucking bullshit. They’re saying your body but my choice like that’s disgusting and it’s all because of that pig.

The mumbling emperor on the news feed

Falling into the coma again

As he rattles off confused half spoken data

And phrases lost to ham radio

He pledges support for brutal violent occupation of the whole fucking world

As he trails off

The most pig head race hate

Interrupts

The usurper

His Misogynist eulogies

for the American Fist

Lies from nowhere but the nachoes cheese

Sweat in the neckbeards of 4chan veterans

And the lawyers desperate spin as the contract comes crashing down around them

The usurper disgusts Biden

The face of the sallow mewling old baby

Twists in rage

At the crumbling sludge of deception

Pooling in Donald Trump’s gums

The sinner lost in his own mythology

Biden’s frustration cracking through his sagged visage

To reveal the blunt and proud man in his youth

The democrat conventions of the 1970’s

Now in the year of our lord

all his statistics and policy briefings

Of the last 50 years

rattle through his tired brain

Clutching at any progressive grief

He can pool in his palm

And offer up to the voting public

The taxpayers and Lamborghini maniacs

His passion snuffed out as the moderator calls time

And Trump comes around again

Spitting on the audience

Dangling his apotheosis

Into a hypnotic malaise

The two presidents choke on it all

Far into the night

As the Devastation looms

Above us all

The undead mistakes

Clawing at the very foundation

Of our way of life

You

Are drowning in the rancid ambrosia of the feed

With a ballot in your hand

And a gun in the other

“A waitress came over, beautiful waitress — and I never liked talking about physical — she’s beautiful inside, because you never talk about a person’s look. Ever,” said Trump, who has called women “fat,” “disgusting” and “unsexy,” among other misogynistic attacks, over the decades. He then launched into a backhanded attack on former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), a Trump ally turned critic who went up against the former president in the presidential primaries. “The other day, I got very angry,” Trump continued. “Some man called Chris Christie fat. And I said, ‘Sir.’ And then he said he was a pig. I said, ‘Sir! Chris Christie is not a fat pig!’ Please remember he is not a fat pig. Please take it back.” Trump has previously mocked Christie’s weight. At a rally in New Hampshire in August, he said Christie was off “eating right now” before pointing into the crowd and saying, “Sir, please do not call him a fat pig.” Christie, at the time, invited Trump to “say it to my face.” Trump’s Doral rally contained multiple eyebrow-raising moments where he trailed off, rambled incoherently and blatantly lied.

I clicked on one of the links in the last paragraph quoted above, and found another example of how Trump "rambled incoherently."

Where is the prominent mainstream coverage of Trump's rambling moments at the rally?

Here's The New York Times headline about the rally:

In the above NY Times article, there was not a peep about Trump rambling off on tangents. But if Joe Biden did so at a rally, the Times would not only point it out, but they would also renew their calls for Biden to step away from the nomination.

The MSM appears to be trying to facilitate a Trump win. They are foolish to do so, because if Trump gets back in office, he will shut them down in a heartbeat if they dare to criticize him.

🤦🏽🤦🏼🤦🏾

[daerklina]

the story of house of the dragon will never be about both teams being wrong. This will always be about patriarchy judging women by their genitals, denying women’s rights to rule, Dance of the Dragons is about the greens who stole the crown from rightful heir aka Rhaenyra because she doesn’t have a dick.

team green is the most deranged team and hightowers are the most deranged family in westeros. I mean…on their side we have a r@pist and usurper, a grown ass kinslayer having beef with 14 years old Lucerys, weirdo who’s personality is all around blood and cheese (sorry not sorry but it is the truth), hysterical religious fanatic and her father. They’re not as united as the Blacks and they would never be a good ruler, a r@pist who usurped the throne would be a death sentence to all women despite the fact hotd is already settled in middle ages and women’s position in society is so bad.

And Rhaenyra is the one who could bring stability to the realm and would improve the laws and would give more rights to women.

1) Alicent, on the contrary was always a person that thought women has some obligations, she always thought that using her religion to judge people is okay, she even forced Rhaenyra to pray once (it was shown in a tv series), removed all Targaryen banners from the palace in KL and put that damn star of the seven

this religion in question:

(also allows IN A LAW to beat women)

when Rhaenyra said that she’d rather serve as a knight she only laughed at it, like…gurl that’s ur friend, don’t you want to support her a little bit, no?

2) terrible slutshaming

at first otto stalked Rhaenyra, told that to viserys, of course with only goal — disinheritance of Rhaenyra so his shitball grandsons would be the new heirs. Then alicent yelled at her and actually forced Nyra to swear by the memory of her mother Aemma that Daemon never touched her, called her “spoiled” which is one of the most famous patriarchal terms to control women to make them a broodmares and sell them into a marriage. And people blaming her for lying to their beloved woman for trump are as disgusting as greens themselves.

Nyra was bullied and harassed for YEARS until she left with Daemon and her kids to dragonstone. greenies knew perfectly well that she had no one to protect her, Harwin couldn’t do that for obvious reasons, Daemon was in exile, Laenor was with Qarl + he also wouldn’t stand against queen and a hand of the king, Viserys was in no condition (that man’s flesh was literally ROTTING off his bones)

3) a egon? I have nothing really to say about him, he’s a r*pist and a child abuser who forced his own bastards in a child fight club just to entertain himself

4) aemond.

A grown ass man with a largest dragon beefing with a little kid with a small dragon.

And all of this over an eye, that Lucerys took from him and it wasn’t even his fault. aemond attacked Baela and Rhaena in the most violent way, threatened to kill Rhaenyra’s kids, insulted them, choked them, beaten them.

Luke should’ve taken both of his eyes in fact🤭

5) Daeron? who? does he even exist?

6) greens pretend too much that they’re morally superior but the most vile things that were made during the Dance were made by the greens. Alicent didn’t raise her kids at all and neither otto did. Of course it Viserys’ fault too but most of the time their kids were growing he was ill. aegon and aemond became fucking savages, not Luke and Jace as alicent told (over pig joke that was made by aegon btw). The only morally wrong thing the Blacks did was blood and cheese but still it was a revenge for Luke’s death and greens completely deserved it.

I hate green stans acting like a morally superior people, blaming Daemon for all sins when he only tried to protect his family and marry the woman he loved.

Movies I watched this week - 28

3 by Miyazaki:

✳️✳️✳️ Never-Ending Man: Another wonderful NHK documentary about Old Man Hayao Miyazaki after his 2013 retirement, and as he slowly comes around to create one more animation, the short ‘Boro The Caterpillar’. It follows him unobtrusively for a couple of years, walking from his simple house to his office at the studio, drawing drawing, struggling with self doubt and old age, and yes - driving a bit in his old Citroën 2CV.

It’s such a privilege to be so close to a legendary artist and watch him at close range - 8/10.

✳️✳️✳️ Kiki's Delivery Service, one of my most favorite Ghibli masterpieces, about a 13 year old witch, who flies on a broom to a new city in order to build her independence. With a magical score by Joe Hisaishi. 

- Best film of the week!

✳️✳️✳️ Castle in the sky, Miyazaki’s 3rd feature from 1986, an cyberpunk adventure fantasy which contains many of the elements and characters which will show up fully formed in his later films: Sheeta looks like Kiki, Dola behaves like Yubaba, Pazu as a stand in for Haku, etc. I prefer his quieter, more personal, smaller stories.

Exit Plan (“Suicide Tourist”) is a Danish film about a quiet man with a terminal brain tumor who signs up for an upscale Norwegian hotel specializing in assisted end-of-life fantasies. Starts as a dark existential tale, ends with a kind of ambiguous mystery.

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is the guy.

✴️

The Aerial  (”La Antena”) is an innovative Argentinian silent film from 2007,  about a city that had lost its voice, and its only savior, a boy without eyes who is crucified on a Star of David. It’s a surreal allegory in German expressionism style, a weird black & white fantasy about mind control. In short, a unique and inaccessible fairy tale.

“Mommy, are you there?...”

For comparison, I revisited ‘Un Chien Andalou’, Bunuel & Dalí disturbing, groundbreaking masterpiece. Even though every outrageous frame of it is part of history now, the raw imagery is still shocking - Pure id. I can’t imagine being in the room in 1929, and watching it for the first time. No wonder the two surrealists were disappointed at the audience's positive reception.

2 from French director Mia Hansen-Løve:

✳️✳️✳️ The Future / “Things to come“ from 2016. Isabelle Huppert is a resilient middle-aged philosophy professor whose life suddenly suffers multiple setbacks.

It only has 6 scenes with background music, each punctures the quiet delivery of the story at an emotional peak: A Schubert lieder, a Woodie Guthrie song on the radio, a lullaby...

I loved it!

✳️✳️✳️ Goodbye First Love tells about a romance between a 15 year old and a boy who leaves her, and then comes back 8 years later, after she settles down.

Unhurried, sensitive story-telling, reminisces of Eric Rohmer, with careful use of music and language. It also has a couple of scenes shot here at the Kastrup Sea Baths and on the grounds of Louisiana museum.

Loved it! I’m looking forward to see her new ‘’Bergman Island’.

✴️

Love in the afternoon, the last of Eric Rohmer’s ‘6 Moral Tales’. Exploration of sexual and spiritual virtues in 1972 Paris, by a traditional married man who carries on a platonic love affair with an old flame.

✴️

The White Ribbon - Austrian Michael Haneke’s dark, multi-layered tragedy. In 1913, a series of upsetting events occur in a small German village. A horse trips on a wire and injures its rider; a woman falls to her death through rotted planks; the local baron's son is hung upside down in a mill; parents bully their children; a man torments his long-suffering lover; another sexually abuses his daughter. People disappear.

Relentless inquiry into abuse, cruelty and despair. Shot in gorgeous Bergmansk black & white.

(This is an Italian speaking copy). 8/10

✴️

2 more from 1973:

✳️✳️✳️ First watch - Soylent Green, a pessimistic science fiction story happening in 2022. Very prescient in its dystopian prediction of global warming, over population, resource depletion and income equality.

The 2 minutes opening montage was paced brilliantly. 7/10

✳️✳️✳️ In Scarecrow, Gene Hackman and Al Pacino are two drifters who becomes friends as they hitchhike from California to Pittsburgh. 6/10

✴️

In Pig, Nicholas Cage is a reclusive mountain man, living out in the woods outside Portland, OR, gathering truffles with a female pig, who is his only friend. One night, some tweakers attack him and kidnap the pig. His journey to bring her back takes him on a surprising and completely unexpected places. 

Very un-American!

✴️

“… and Rex Hamilton as Abraham Lincoln”

6 episodes of the 1982 TV series Police Squad!,  a spoof of police procedurals - shorter and funnier than the Naked Gun movies which it later spawned. Zucker-Abrams-Zucker production.

“Who are you? And how did you get in here?

- "I'm a locksmith, and I'm a locksmith”

✴️

“Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'”

Every time I watch Hot Fuzz, it gets better. "Not just one of the best comedies of all time, it’s one of the best movies of all time", for sure.

Editor Tony Zhou, of ‘Every Frame A Painting’, shot an excellent video essay ‘How to do visual comedy’ about Edgar Wright.

Jim Broadbent as Inspector Frank Butterman: “He had one thing you haven't got... A great, big, bushy beard! “

✴️

Re-watch: Wag the Dog, blackest of black comedies, utterly cynical, nihilistic view of politics. Americans can always be distracted, can always be manipulated, and can always be led to believe anything the powers-to-be needs them to. You can fool all of the people all of the time. 

“Look, look, look. He's fine as long as he gets his medications...”

Amazingly, it premiered one month BEFORE the Lewinsky scandal!

✴️

The Invisible Guest, a forgettable and predictable Spanish murder-mystery thriller from 2016. Best part was the soft, minimalist European style score (or am I just going deaf?)

✴️

How to Become a Tyrant, a new docu-series narrated by Peter Dinklage. 6 short episodes about Hitler, Stalin, Gaddafi, Kim Il-sung, Idi Amin and Saddam Hussein. (Mao is referred to, but doesn’t get his own chapter).

And it doesn’t mention trump, even as a Wanna be Dictator - probably because he didn’t succeed in his (first) attempt.

✴️

Seaspiracy, the most depressing documentary I’ve ever seen. Ali Tabrizi starts investigating plastic pollution in the ocean, and quickly realizes that it is commercial fishing that is the bane of our existence. Basically all fishing must be banned, as there will be no more live fish in the seas in 2048. There were some ‘controversies’ about the claims the movie makes, but they came from mainstream entities, who support incremental change.

Utterly disgusting: We deserve all that befall us.

✴️

A colorful and dramatic Vatican drama, The Two Popes, with excellent ‘Odd Couple’ performances by Anthony Hopkins as the first Pope in 700 years to step down and by Jonathan Pryce who doesn’t want to succeed him. Re-watch.

Did you ever just receive the stupidest most head-in-the-sand ~I can’t hear you~ balls out appallingly bad take and think christ almighty is it even worth dunking on though

*steeples fingers* I’m just going to leave this here like an offering in the hopes that it’ll be the stupidest thing I’m forced to hear today, like goddamn, I’ve seen the light!  You’re right, it’s not my business that all the fraud, tax evasion, rape, pedophilia, mask-off open white nationalism, misogyny, incitement of domestic terrorism, ableism, treason & proud pig-fucking ignorance wasn’t in enough to make jericho / his fellow dipshits think “I don’t know, maybe this guy shouldn’t be in a position of unquestioned authority,” or even “There is a slight chance this man does not have honest motivations for wanting to maintain his grip on power.”

It’s not MY business to wonder, slightly unsettled, why they would come to the opposite conclusion, or to wonder if it’s simply because they might get end up slightly less rich if he wasn’t reelected, or if his crimes and atrocities were NOT ONLY not reasons to recoil from him in disgust, but reasons to SUPPORT HIM EVEN MORE BY DONATING TO HIS CAMPAIGN HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHAT THE FUCK IN WHAT UNIVERSE IS IT ~NONE OF OUR BUSINESS~ THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE SUCH TRUE BELIEVERS THAT THEY’D FORK OVER THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO THIS MOTHERFUCKER WHO IS CLEARLY SETTING HIMSELF UP TO BE THE UNOPPOSED WHITE SUPREMACIST DICTATOR OF AMERICA OH MY GOD THEY ARE DOING THIS FUCKING OPENLY AND ASSUMING THERE WILL BE NO CONSEQUENCES FOR THEM AT ALL IN FAN SUPPORT AND YOU!  ARE SUGGESTING!  IT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT IF THAT WERE THE CASE!  BECAUSE ‘WHO CARES’ IF THEY’RE ALL ABOARD THE FLAG-WAVING CONVOY TO A FULL BLOWN FACIST DYSTOPIA

AS LONG!  AS THEY’RE NOT THE ONES!  ON THE FIRING LINE!

I’m...

Anyway.

In case I’ve been in any way unclear:

Fuck trump.  Fuck his enablers, fuck ppl who make excuses for him, fuck people who donate to him, fuck people who voted for him.  Fuck the mcmahons, fuck jericho, fuck ‘taker, fuck anyone who could somehow look at this bigoted rapist conman and all the damage and suffering he’s caused in the past four years and not only think ‘You know what, this guy is on the right track’ but believe so hard that his cruelty and ignorance is righteous & true that they’d actually pledge money to help him steal his way to another term.

"Videographer reveals Meghan Markle was called a 'princess' for her 'diva' behavior" says Daily Mail without revealing the very name of the man who said this, so there would at least be some validity.

"A [insert profession here] said this, that, and a third about [insert celebrity name here]".

Any vouchers for this claim? Are there witnesses? Oh wait, you can't do that unless you reveal the name of the videographer. *gasp*

Now, I'm not defending Meghan Markle. She probably could have a nasty attitude at times, but I read a lot more of other people making comments about her life than she does herself. Even positive comments I hear more from others than I hear from her own mouth. She rarely even gives freaking interviews.

Now, I can totally see that if she doesn't like someone, she'd outright treat them like garbage. If they do something and they're not apologetic, I can see her tossing them to the side. I can see her chucking out people who she believes is only interested in her money or fame. Even if she likes fame herself, she doesn't owe fame to anybody else in her life. Just because she's famous doesn't mean everybody in her life should stay. Michael Jackson did the same thing to his own family when he believed they only cared about his money; he distanced himself like Meghan Markle seems to be doing to probably a lot of different people. It could point to signs of stressed out paranoia which is normal for people who receive too much unwanted attention.

People call her a nasty or narcissistic person. But there's no real proof of that other than the media and those who simply don't like her for reasons we as outsiders don't actually know. As an example of someone who is self-important: Trump — we see him everywhere, even before he was president (like, what the heck is doing in Home Alone?) But you don't see Meghan Markle everywhere (with her purposely trying to get screentime) and she's even trying to remove herself from the press little by little. I didn't even know who she was before the relationship was revealed. The press always had an unhealthy fascination with the Royal Family and therefore with her. And because she'd rather not cater to a lot of traditions (which she shouldn't have to since she's American and doesn't have any type of royal or, even cultural training), she gets a lot of bad publicity.

(And for those who say "she should follow tradition even if she's American", I have to say you wouldn't force a Native American to cater to British or American tradition or an Arabian or Indian or Cameroonian, etc. So why would you say an American would have to? Nobody should have to unless they want to. The Queen ain't the boss of anybody but her own biological family and that family is coming apart due to what's happening now anyway.)

Anyhoo, back on point. One clear example of idiots who think so little of Meghan Markle is that when she VERY lightly placed her hand on her husband's back (and he jumped at her appearance, apparently, and therefore moved to the side), people thought she shoved him out of the way. Nothing in the video indicated such. It really makes me wonder how they see all other videos of her when she touches other people. People make her out to be a devil when she did nothing wrong.

Humans are disgusting creatures. Can't even call them rats or pigs or any other so-called "repulsive" animal. All animals are better than utter human trash.

[rk800isalive]

I’m not going to be online much today as it is my 8 year anniversary but @staff if you suggest one more ad asking me to vote for that disgusting PIG in office one more time I swear to fuck... Stop showing me false information about this man. You literally are a big reason why he is in office now you literal trash can.

I hate trump. He stands for everything and I mean EVERYTHING I hate in men. If you ask me my opinion I wish the man would drop dead. If I hear one positive comment about that disgusting scum I will fucking go off on you. There is nothing good about this scum of a human being.

Do not EVER send me ads related to that orange fuck head. Or anything to do with him. Hopefully this reaches A LIVING HUMAN ON STAFF. I doubt it.

[norman-reedus-coven2]

I have to ask. Mod, why does Trump keep coming up when you're talking about the trolls? Lately you make it seem that anyone who doesn't support Normans relationship is automatically a Cheeto supporter. Is it that you actually know their political persuasion? Or is it you think they're assholes so it must stand to reason? I mean not all assholes voted for stupid hair man and not all funky orange man supporters are assholes. Or is it he's king troll? Because that's pretty accurate.

A large chunk of the most vocal fools are cheeto supporters. Some are against him but ALLOT of them voted for him if they live in the USA. In regards to my last post the one I was talking about is a naive Trump supporter. Whatever you tell her she believes, is easily swayed by propaganda and rhetoric because she's not capable of having any opinions of her own. I've never seen her once bother to fact check just blindly goes along with whatever is said. She's a homophobe that lives with mommy and daddy. Even when called out for her homophobic comments instead of realizing her error she answers with yet another homophobic comment. A trump supporter to me is hateful, ignorant, racist, homophobic, sexist, easily swayed by public opinion, incapable of fact-checking and angry. They like spreading their hate and lies throughout the world. With no regards who's feelings they hurt or lives they effect. This can also be the same description you can use for the trolls in this fandom. So when I use the term cheeto supporter I'm either calling out a person that actually is or just a hateful disgusting troll. To me they are one in the same. You don't want to be labeled hateful and a vicious person that don't align yourself with hateful and vicious people. If you vote for a racist, sexist, misogynistic Pig then you yourself are labeled those things. Your vote represents Who You Are in this country. And if you voted for him then you stand behind everything that he is done. It is not like his views were hidden before he was elected he laid all of his cards on the table including sexually assaulting women. There are no good people on a trump supporter side I'm sorry. You are represented by what your vote for plain and simple. And if you voted for evil then you're not a good person or terribly ignorant. If this was a different time I have no problem with Republicans Or democrats it's a person's right to choose. But our current situation has crossed having any party lines. It us no longer about what party you voted for. It is a vote between Good and Evil. What side are you on ? I would rather lose a limb then ever be associated with voting for a monster.

President Donald Trump was questioned about past demeaning statements about women in a high-octane clash with Fox News host Megyn Kelly during the 2016 election campaign.

According to a New Yorker investigation, Trump may have been tipped off about Kelly's question by Roger Ailes, then CEO of the network, and an ardent Trump supporter.

Trump Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton when it emerged a CNN contributor had tipped off her campaign about questions.

Fox News has denied the allegations, and in a 2016 interview Kelly said that Ailes "did not oversee" her preperation for the debate.

Roger Ailes, the former Fox News CEO and chairman, tipped off Donald Trump about debate questions in which he was was grilled about his alleged misogyny during the 2016 election campaign, The New Yorker reported Monday.

The encounter was with then-Fox host Megyn Kelly, who asked Trump to comment on past insults he had used against women, which she suggested could show his unfitness for office.

Trump parried the question, turning it into a joke about the comedian Rosie O'Donnell. The encounter helped establish a reputation for being able to shake off any allegation, however severe.

The report also suggests that Trump benefitted from advance knowledge of questions — an allegation he levelled at Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, whom he said was getting help from CNN.

A Fox News spokeswoman directed Business Insider to a denial of the allegations it issued to the New Yorker, and to on-the-record comments by Kelly, where she said that Ailes "did not oversee" her preparation for the debate, and that she and others "wrote our own questions."

During the encounter, Megyn Kelly confronted Trump with his past statements on women, saying: ""You've called women you don't like, 'fat pigs,' 'dogs,' 'slobs,' and 'disgusting animals."

Trump interrupted her with a joke: "Only Rosie O'Donnell." The audience laughed and cheered.

Kelly continued: "Your Twitter account has several disparaging comments about women's looks. You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees.

"Does that sound to you like the temperament of a man we should elect as president?

"And how will you answer the charge from Hillary Clinton, who is likely to be the Democratic nominee, that you are part of the war on women?"

Trump's response was to attack political correctness.

He said: "I've been challenged by so many people, and I don't, frankly, have time for total political correctness. And to be honest with you, this country doesn't have time either."

In a subsequent interview, Trump infamously said of Kelly that "there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever" during the clash.

But according to the New Yorker story probing Trump's close ties with Fox News, he may have known it was coming.

Two Fox insiders and a source close to Trump suggested the magazine that Ailes informed the Trump campaign about Kelly's questions before the live debate.

Two of the sources claimed that they were informed of the tip-off by somebody who witnessed it.

The confrontation, reports The New Yorker's Jane Meyer, helped "shape Trump's image as shamelessly unsinkable. It also kicked off a feud between Trump and Fox, in which Trump briefly boycotted the channel, hurting its ratings and forcing Ailes to grovel."

Trump on the campaign trail had lambasted his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, after leaked emails showed that that CNN commentator and interim Democratic National Committee chair Donna Brazile had tipped her off about likely debate questions.

Ailes resigned from Fox News in July 2016 following a series of sexual harassment allegations, one of which was from Kelly. He died in May 2017.
