  • Ironically your reaction paints you as the reactionary with a broad brush.

  • He was actually a big get to start the show. But only agreed to do the two seasons. But I absolutely would have loved to see where the absurdism went. He had such a dry deadpan delivery that just made it everything he did funny.

  • Honestly I think the only way it could have been less transphobic was to actually have a trans woman play the role? The woman that played April was quite fetching. And seemed like a pretty fleshed out person and not just a punchline. It would have been just as easy to find some beefy guy to put in a dress with bad makeup. Make a complete bigoted caricature. But they didn't. Matt Berry's character was always the butt of the joke. And in totality in the end still missed her. Honestly short of having a trans actress portray the character it really was one of the most positive and Progressive portrayals ironically at the time. Though I'm sure that has more to do with the staff involved then it does lineham himself.

  • That may say more about you than them. Make of that what you will. Plenty have though.

    New Single: Buried In Time by Diva Destruction #goth #gothrock

    Holy shit apparently she has arisen. The last release being a sophomore album just short of 20 years ago! The diva has put out a new track, and it sounds good! I always loved the other works. Such a strong and unique female vocalist. The broken ones being a favorite track. I think somewhere between heavy metal switchblade Symphony with a Banshee on lead vocals.

  • Only if nullification was not a possibility. Nullification sends a much stronger and important message. Namely we don't give a fuck if they're guilty or not. Because this is a bullshit show trial that does not have Justice in mind. Yes I'm aware prosecutors often ask for the largest applicable sentence possible eventually negotiating down. That doesn't make this any less bullshit.

  • In this one isolated instance Carville isn't wrong for once. Which is actually very notable. That said fuck both Maher and Carville

  • Absolutely does. But they wanted to introduce us to one of their favorites. Which if I must say absolutely is an underrated awesome movie. Gina Davis is great in almost everything she's ever been in. They didn't imply it was the first.

    As you said aliens definitely predates it and also counts. But the statements that it was the first big female led action movie was just so ridiculous because there are so many good ones that are easy to point out. Just how that blue origin launch with the all female crew was somehow this big step for females in space. Completely ignoring and down playing all the female astronauts throughout NASA's history.

  • Ghost cop is absolutely synthwave. Love them, Carpenter Brut, Irving Force, Occam's lazer, etc. It's such a vast genre. With plenty of dark little nooks and crannies with hidden gems.

  • I really don't like jury duty. And would do plenty to get out of it. If I got called for this one. I would happily nullify it as hard as I could.

  • That and Christine are both jams. Did you know that they are back recording and touring again?

    New Single: Black Hole Sun by Priest #cover #goth #darkwave #synthwave

    Stockholm's Priest put out this cover of Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun a couple of days ago. A fun and unique interpretation. Though be sure to check the rest of their catalog. I can't recommend them enough.

  • What's causing the rise in cases is actual diagnosis. For many generations. Theirs and mine included. Either you were institutionalized. Or you were undiagnosed. People would just refer to you as Quirky or eccentric. There was no Spectrum to be on. It was treated as largely binary. Only in the last 40 years at the earliest did they start to fully understand the condition. And even now they still have a long way to go. But they've at least started recognizing the larger condition.

    Thinking that the rise in diagnoses at this point is some sort of crisis/pandemic or Healthcare emergency that needs to be addressed. Is like blaming the Exterminator coming out and finding your house is filled with termites. It wasn't filled with termites before they came just a few odd little ones that you saw skittering about on the surface. All these other ones must have been brought by them or someone else right? It's not like they could have been there all along and we just didn't notice?

  • I came here to post exactly this. If they read and follow the Bible they wouldn't be who they are.

    New EP: Vestron Vulture by Vestron Vulture #darkwave #deathwave #shoegaze #postpunk

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/28367383

    If you like mellow dark and ambient then this will be right up your alley. San Diego artist Vestron Vulture has pumped out content like a machine. Disembodied whispers and howls reverberating in the void as the synths blare.

    New Single: Station 21 by VNV Nation

    A fresh release from Ronan. If you generally like VNV you are going to like this as always.

  • Whole bunch of Chamberlain looking motherfuckers.

  • Hah good catch! I should always proof read voice to text. Even simple shit like this. Because AI will find a way to fuck it up.

  • They can 100% report on the goings on without even being in there. All that's being aired in there are lies.

    One of the core tools of fascism and propaganda is repetition. All of these Outlets just reporting what they say, fulfill this succinctly. Fuck what they say. It doesn't mean anything anyway.

    And you are right about the fact that Trump won't care in the least. That is undeniably true. And not at all the point of such a boycott. Trump will happily fill it with ass kissers and yes men just like he has everything else. But when that's all that's there. It sort of becomes obvious what a joke it all is. When long time conservatives have to question who the hell cat turd is and what his credentials are to be in the White House Press pool. It will wake a few people up. A few that would never snapped out of it as long as CBS, NBC, ABC continue to let the Whitehouse use whatever reputation these outlets have left to pretend to have any legitimacy.

    If you are simply reporting and ultimately repeating what a fascist says. You're part of the problem.

  • I mean he's a literal fascist. What else should anyone have expected this is exactly what they do. When you show them your weak. You're just a bigger Target.

  • Yes they like to pretend. But that's the point. They are all still there. And in my view if they ever were truly legitimate. Are clearly not at this point

  • CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC Etc are still there I'm sure

  • I said it before and I will keep saying it. Any legitimate outlet would be boycotting the Whitehouse in solidarity with the AP till the AP is allowed back in. If you aren't allowed to push back against their lies and misinformation without fear of reprisals. Then what's the point of attending? You're just giving legitimacy to the propaganda. Walk away and let it devolve into an embarrassing circus of no names and bigots whom no one respects.

    New Single/Video: Lachryma by Ghost #goth #gothicmetal

    I'm not a big fan of a lot of Gothic metal. But this song and video go hard. Between the vocals and the tune. Harkens back to the heavy metal stylings of the late 70s early 80s. 🔥🤟🔥

    New Single: Ms Rain on my Parade by Astari Nite #gothrock #postpunk #alternative

    If you like your goth with gators Astari Nite may be for you. They have a great sound often between London after midnight and fellow Floridians the cruxshadows.

    New Release: Pathways, by The Birthday Massacre #goth #postpunk #industrial

    Definitely a more heavy sound than the last several albums. But still unmistakably the Birthday Massacre. Definitely drawing more from their industrial roots. Where the last several have been much more synth-pop. But I'm listening through the album and it's all great so far.

    Though I may be biased. I've always really liked this group. So much so that I once wore a Birthday Massacre shirt not even thinking about it to one of my niece's birthday parties lol.

    Rodney Anonymous every friday on ynot.

    Just found out @[email protected] is on mastodon. For those of you unfamiliar or uninitiated think Dead Milkmen.

    He does a great show every Friday on ynot radio. Plenty of goth darkwave and Industrial on tap. It's been over a year since I listened last. Just life and everything else getting in the way. But I will definitely be tuning in this Friday and I hope a few of you will as well.

    KMFDM - Hyena

    KMFDM always has a way with hooks and lyrics.

    On the prowl for skin and bone to tear I'm a skeleton looking for meat to wear The abject gift, eternity Making death a victory

    The sum of human wretchedness Enter the arena Laughing all the way through the night I am hyena

    45 years ago today, The Cure released “A Forest” (1980), the only single from the band’s second album. #80s #80smusic #gothrock #TheCure

    A favorite song from the cure. Though there are so many good ones. But damn does this make me feel old. Lol several years older than this song.
