It really hurts when the unspeakable terrors of the night try to use family to get to me. I feel so unheard, so unseen. I woukd feel much more validated if they just imitated an ex ive still got feels for or something.

There's a guy on YouTube doing videos about his haunted apartment "but the rent is really, really really cheap!" Part of the gag is that there's a doppelganger that keeps trying to talk him into going into the basement, and will try to trick you too. The bit is all kinds of craziness, it's pretty fun.

YES!!! I appreciate you finding that. I'm between patients on sketchy mobile so it's hard to find things sometimes.

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

No problem! I just watched it the other day, so I just had to check my history.

I scold the skinwalker for wasting his talents trying to get a subpar meal instead of taking up acting. He internalizes this advice, and after eating me travels to Hollywood, where his shapeshifting and perfect mimicry ignite a legal and ethical firestorm around stolen roles that makes the current arguments about AI look tame.

Prologue: Magic died at the 1851 Great Exhibition in London after a precise photograph of the Moon was recorded, seen, and accepted as reality by the general public. Now, with the emergence of generative AI, diffusion models have loosened the public's hold on reality, magic, and all the associated rewriting of history, is reëmerging.

This is the gag in From. Pretty good show.

[–] Codename_goose@sh.itjust.works 21 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It doesn’t have to be a gag per say, as the situation can occur when a skinwalker (native America folk creature) has its eyes on you and wants to eat you it will use your own family against you to have you leave the safety of your home to eat.

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's actually written "per se". It's Latin for "by or in itself; intrinsically".

[–] Codename_goose@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Good catch. Thanks. I haven’t had to actively look at or read Latin in a long time so it’s always good to have someone catch my mistakes.

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago (2 children)

You mean the gag from From?

[–] ReallyActuallyFrankenstein@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I think it's the gag from From from this post.

It's either "This is a gag in From" or "This is the gag from From". OP rode the middle and missed the grammar.

...

"Are you fucking sorry?"

[–] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

That reminds me I need to keep watching that show.

[–] Ferrous@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I really dig it. Take your time, though. Last season ended with a cliffhanger and I dont think any more is coming till late next year.

[–] Zirconium@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

S3 was a drag bro. It lost its horror elements, will still watch S4 when it comes out tho

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 21 points 4 months ago (1 children)

"Nice try skinwalker, time to wendiGO before you go from cryptid to crypted."

-OP probably

[–] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Did you just come up with that, or is that a quote? Either way, im definitely using that if i get a chance

[–] DudeImMacGyver@kbin.earth 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, they told me I was gifted but all I use it for is shitposting. Enjoy!

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

The noblest of literary endeavours.

[–] helvetpuli@sopuli.xyz 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nah, OP is a judge and his fake dad is a lawyer making formal arguments for himself.

Gene Wolf's Alzabo, anyone?

The creature calls out to the remaining family members in the voices of the eaten loved ones, and promises them in those same voices that they will be re-united if they just let themselves be eaten. It returns almost every night with the same promise.

I'm stressed about the holidays too.
