ELON MUSK: So on the left you see Cheems, and on the right is Doge. Both are Shibes, or Shiba Inu dogs. Methinks I have too many of these saved in my Meme Folder, I get them from a subreddit called Dogelore... SAUDI HITMEN:

BREAKING: Emerging situation on the roof of Twitter HQ in downtown San Francisco. Elon Musk announced to a crowd of pedestrians he is "going out Mishima style". A Senior Software Developer has been hacking away for a few minutes now but the sword is simply too dull

Elon Musk purchasing twitter, saddling it with debt, and driving away the employees may appear irrational and wasteful - but this is precisely the point! He has flown free of the sphere of profane rationality and into a mode of antiproduction, akin to potlatch or ritual sacrifice

Upon gaining language, the Brain Gremlin is ripped from the world of nameless feeling - we can only re-enter this world through creating works of art. Just as ancient man made the cave paintings at Lascaux, it is for this reason that the Brain Gremlin sings "New York, New York".

The ending of Gremlins 2: The New Batch, in which the Gremlins are reduced to a bubbling green sludge, recalls the verse from Baudelaire that Walter Benjamin identifies as having a cosmic aspect: "The Sky! Black lid of that enormous pot / in which innumerable generations boil"

Herzog uses the chaotic Amazon in Aguirre, Wrath of God, as a background against which reason & madness, human & nature, dissolve. For the same reason, Gremlins 2 is set in a busy skyscraper: the frenetic madness of the Gremlins, & that of techno-capitalism, becomes indeterminate

Every shot is a dutch angle, the makeup does not escape the uncanny valley, the architecture is non-Euclidean, and not since Suspiria has a film used color to create such a hallucinatory nightmare. The Grinch (2000) is an infernal film, the nauseating fever dream of a mad man.

Or perhaps the Gremlins personify capital itself, as in "The Treatise of Garcia of Toledo", a satire in which the Pope and his cardinals toast & feast without end. Just as their gluttony "acquires cosmic dimensions", the Gremlins' nonstop carnival threatens to consume the earth

Why must the Gremlins eat after midnight? Through this act of feasting, "man partakes in the world, instead of being devoured by it". This victory, tangible, free of all abstraction & mysticism, is anathema to the harsh corporate austerity the human characters passively accept

All that Bakhtin identifies as subversive and insurrectionary in the writings of Francois Rabelais - the carnival, the use of banquet imagery, the grotesque's emphasis on bodily changes - is corporealized in the figure of the Vegetable Gremlin
