I’m pleased that she’s experiencing the fallout from all this, but whatever logic she used to calculate that political risk is baffling.

Four John Wick movies have grossed over a billion dollars on the conceit that harming a dog is a legitimate emotional catalyst for someone to kill 450 people.

You’re fun.

I wish I would have thought of it first this time 😔

Decent quality automatic cat feeders.

We have 3 cats, and I resisted getting autofeeders for 5 years because it felt silly to buy what amounts to three $75 food bowls.

They paid for themselves the first weekend I didn’t have 3 razor sharp dickheads screaming at me to feed them at 5:15 AM. I should have bought them years ago.

I wonder how much difference one Stinger SAM would have made at Blair Mountain in 1921.

My mom got me this “protection” charm from a woo-ass lady at a farmer’s market once. It was cool looking, so I wore it on a tight necklace that couldn’t slip over my head, and I never took it off.

A couple years later, I was in a nasty rollover car accident that could easily have killed me. I walked away only mildly banged up. I realized later that day that the necklace was gone. I scoured the car and even went to the crash site looking for it. Never saw the thing again.

Paths of Glory is 10/10 stuff. So good.

I didn’t see your Timecrimes rec before posting mine. It’s so well done & I want everyone to see it!

I’m not usually into anime, but Perfect Blue captivated me from the start. Its whole vibe was so engrossing.

I’ll check out some other Satoshi Kon titles. PB is all I’ve seen so far. Any specific recommendations?

Sci-Fi

Timecrimes

The McPherson Tape

The Dead Zone (not that lesser known, but old enough that maybe it’s getting that way)

Animation

A Town Called Panic

Perfect Blue

Comedy

It’s a Disaster

One, Two, Three (might be better known than I think, since it’s a Billy Wilder movie)

Coherence is fantastic!

Well, we’re a few thousand miles apart, so the pancakes bit might not be feasible lol. On any fun discord servers?

Nah, that one’s true.

Do you live in the US? If so, what region? Wanna go to a movie sometime and then get pancakes & talk about said movie?

I wouldn’t say that I have zero friends, but I certainly don’t have the social circle I wish I had. That worries me for my own future. I’m gonna die someday, and I don’t want to slip into the abyss feeling totally alone.

And the fact that I don’t seem to be an outlier makes me worried for the future health and resiliency of entire communities.

The expanding prevalence of loneliness

“Economically inactive” 🤣

I’m not from the south, but I used to work in warehouses where the summertime was quite hot. I wore a kilt, and it was amazing. This kind of kilt. They’re more comfortable than shorts when it’s hot.

Every warehouse I worked in either never articulated that we had to wear pants, or they had an actual written policy pertaining to skirts. (usually for office staff). The guys would bust my balls for a minute, but a bunch of peripheral things would usually shut that down pretty quickly.

They don’t affect your mobility, and since it’s inadvisable to go commando, anyway, there’s no issue climbing ladders and whatnot. I always wore lightweight boxer briefs underneath super bright plaid silk boxers so I could be cheeky about the whole kilt thing if anybody did try sneaking a peek.

Plus, I’m pretty sure that days are always about 24 hours long 🙃

Eskimos have a kabrillion words for snow.

Indigenous Alaskan/north Canadian languages have a few more words for snow than English, but it’s not that that much more.

We’re even older than that! There is compelling evidence that Homo Sapiens has existed for 400k years, and there’s unprovocative evidence that we’ve been around for 250k years or so.
