  • Nudist Colony of the Dead is awful and fantastic at the same time. I love getting a friend to go into the movie blind.

    Tap for spoiler

    It’s fucking hilarious watching someone slowly realize that they’re watching a super low budget movie musical that’s a musical about a bunch of religious types getting murdered by ‘nudist’ zombies (that basically have the equivalent of fig leaf clothing).

    The day I got my best bud fucking blazed out of his mind to watch it has to be one of my favorite experiences.















  • Then I’m watching some news coverage and then some right-wing guy comes on and gives it some “spin” and I’m like, “wait … do they have a point?”. Urgh.

    That’s what right wing media does. They spin facts in such a way that there’s a compelling narrative, but only if you’re willfully ignorant, know nothing about it and don’t bother to look into it. They specifically rely on ignorance of their viewers, and to a lesser extent, the lack of short term memory or being able to follow shifting narratives in reporting. It’s why you can see militant “anti-government” people like Jones who now actively cheers on the exact shit he decried a decade ago.
