longish response
@zebratron2084 I've never actually seen the show but I know it had this huge fanbase.
I'm still figuring out what I thought about Big Adventure. It's like a kids' movie BY a 10 year old, rather than FOR 10 year olds - nothing really "adult" but none of the careful encouragement or whatever people put in childrens' films. And he reads as neurodiverse without it necessarily being played for laughs, Pee Wee as a character works that way whether it's funny or not.
Everything's CONSISTENTLY surreal to make the story work - real life doesn't work that way, but whatever universe Pee Wee's in, his infinite supply of money, ghost truckers, Ghidorah movies made on the WB lot, becoming the rodeo champion by accident etc are all about consistent. Lastly there really is something INCREDIBLY Angelino feeling about it, like Dr. Demento or the movie UHF, like part of the surreal is you live in this huge sprawling place with all sorts of people, so why WOULDN'T that include a person like Pee Wee with a house like that?
late war Captain Crunch where gradually the crunchberries started to include more wood shavings or other filler, and the Kriegsmarine learned to become wary of Resistance members sabotaging the reinforced concrete Crunch docks at Brest by scattering a handful of Fruit Loops in each box
@erin_kitsune "a wee slight miscalculation then, that is"
re: Talk of transphobia
@ziphi Gender is basically a decision in as much as jobs, family or religion. Your extended childhood world (family plus school etc) officially love you, officially want you happy and officially want you do to anything you possibly want. EXCEPT that actually means there's a RIGHT decision you're supposed to make, please do not veer from it and decide you want HRT, childlessness, a humanities degree or career in the arts, and that you're actually an atheist or Buddhist or whatever.
Wow. So that was Pee-Wee's Big Adventure. It took a while to really pick up but once it did I was really hooked. I really like the implication at the end that the ultra dramatic ridiculous Bond film is pretty much Pee-Wee's filter on the whole wild ride. Also, I bet this movie is ridiculously awesome while stoned.
@wobblewuffess @kistaro @bj it's like this technology being widely adopted purely because people WANT it adopted rather than because it accomplishes anything actually useful

@kurgarru please do NOT try hepatomancy at the next ritual, it is definitely not the tone that Indy is going for.
@GraySpots then that’d be the best concept album EVER!
War opinion, pissed off
That fucking asshole KNOWS the moment the war stops he’s out of power, so there’s not going to be a cease-fire. It’ll be an even worse humanitarian disaster, and over here I’ll get to hear even more eagerly cheering on killing everyone’s least favorite minority. I’m so fucking sick of this and him!
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
