ok so no one ever talks about this, but the sound design on mad men is great every crunchy crinkly bit of those dresses, all the room tone, everyone's cigarette lighters, and the heavy sound of things being moved on tables it sets a real atmosphere, and level of production value that is absent now

the best thing about being in my 40s by far has been the freedom to refer to anonymous guys in their late teens/early 20s as “kid” like Han Solo calls Luke in Star Wars. been waiting my whole life for this. worth every second. indescribable feeling of power.

i have been friends in real life with a man who was 6'4" (reacher is 6'5") and i can tell you it is simply Too Tall, it is always funny, you never adjust

i have been Incepted and have finally started watching reacher. it is very stupid and i am enjoying it immensely. i didn't realize it was a comedy about how large alan ritchson is, interspersed by beat downs. like a kung fu serial. like if the the guy from knight rider WAS the car. fantastic.

It's Going Down@igd.bsky.social · 2w ago

Over 100 people rallied in solidarity with Minneapolis Spider-Man who plead 'not guilty' to assault charges. His attorney stated that he acted in self-defense against a violent group of neo-Nazis. “Black, white, Mexican, whatever you are, we are in this together,” said William Nicholas Love.

it's fine it's fine i'm fine i can keep going grimly, determinedly, i just need a vacation or a windfall or to drink more water or to be enchanted in comalike sleep underneath a mountain for a millennia or to moisturize or to be presented with a tray of lemon possets or make out with someone cute or

Doodled up some character portraits for fun

dragged myself to lincoln center through a hysterical amount of train ISSUES, + two film bros yapping about nolan behind me(!!!), but i can say Marketa Lazarová had some of the most gorgeous B&W dp work i've ever seen, though every time someone was talking i felt like checking the watch i don't have

"Noiseman Sound Insect" is back on Youtube for a limited time (with subs). Directed in 1997 by Koji Morimoto at Studio 4°C (1997). feat. Masaaki Yuasa. >> www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwjN...

The reason this viewpoint bugs me so much is it's emblematic of the liberal mindset that having good taste or opinions means you are correct in all things and not susceptible to reactionary thinking. It absolves a lack of self criticism and approves any misconduct as unavoidable.

wednesdays are quiet on here bc people are too busy standing at the island in their kitchens staring off into space wondering where it all went wrong

Legendary FX animator Phil Tippett is shutting down his studio, which has gone bankrupt 😥 A memorabilia sale is being held this weekend, featuring four decades of production items (Mad God, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, RoboCop, Starship Troopers...). www.berkeleyside.org/2026/08/27/s...

do you think, one day, the 20th century will be over?

"work out so your body DOESN'T hurt...now it hurts" i am become victim of bemuscled propaganda. those swole salesfolk are in the sweaty, creatine-filled pocket of Big Lift owie 🥺

my alignment as i enter a new decade: chaotic evil? "yes, in honor of my birthday, and your interest in detective stories, i recommend you watch, with barest of context, and for the first time, at 12:30am, CURE (1997), i think you'll get a lot out of it"

“Despite their compromised positions, adjuncts still win teaching awards, publish books, and contribute widely to scholarship, literature, and the arts. And they do this even though their academic research and writing—meant to be supported by a tenured position—has been relegated to unpaid labor.”

There are jobs for college instructors. They do require degrees. But the pay and the benefits are abysmal. Another take on the state of the academy:

TOMORROW IS THE BIRTHDAY 🎂⚔️🎉💀 YOU MAY BEGIN YOUR OFFERINGS AND ADULATIONS NOW 🎁💐👀👀⏱️ (i'll be afk all day, are you crazy, being online??? on my birthday??) *disappears in clouds of fragrant yet sinister black and green smoke*

vagueposting but also general: i have a basic modern screenwriting theory that every single contemporary-set movie i have seen in the last 5 years could be improved by cutting up to 50% of the dialogue stop TELLING me how characters feel! in therapy lingo! let them act! *slaps hands from keyboard*

We're gearing up for our big move! Money is already tight (for us, and everyone, I know), and I'll be without a job & bleeding out the nose with moving expenses. IF you want to buy some of my stuff, I'd be so grateful! Closing my sticker shop 8/18! katieaki.com/store www.inprnt.com/gallery/kati...

Because I'm a professor still mentally shackled to the school cycle, my "Spring Cleaning" tends to be now: right before my birthday, post summer work/residency travels, and before semester prep begins. So I'm wrist deep into the annual question! What even is all this stuff, and can I get rid of it?
