Oh, that’s a good tool

Is it burnout or does it seem like chores are insurmountable but possibly easier if someone else breaks them down to smaller tasks? Also could be both

Not the first time the US has recognized Israel’s nukes in an official capacity! https://m.jpost.com/features/security-and-defense-mums-the-n-word

Greens reputation as Tories on Bikes to be tested once again

Maybe they though Mirabilis for “amazing to wonder at” 😍

Except I bet a plant got it first and they scrambled

Coelacanth started going with them then stopped, figuring horse shoe crab knew what was up

I always felt bad for em, we either drowned them in alcohol or froze them. I also felt guilt boiling the ecoli I spent time genetically engineering (in a genetics uni lab)

ben ouais mais ce ne sont que des taches sur un écran lá.

ceci n’est pas un canard

You know what’s funny is there isn’t like one of these winged penis things. They’re all over the ancient Mediterranean and Roman world, northern Libya, Greece, England, Germany, Spain, Italy. And they made so many of em, every local museum will have some already. It’s not even special if you find one lol

It is crazy-making and it’s one of the reasons 2022 to 2024 had such enormous flops. They just don’t have any control over budgets at all, and apparently thought the era of superhero billion dollar box offices was never gonna end. I’m picking on capeshit unfairly because even the supposed auteur movies had way too big of a budget - and you don’t even see it on screen, the effects look so bad lol (unless it’s an Avatar, like you said)

The closest I’ve ever got to being alone in a theatre was a matinee showing of Don’t Breathe like 4 weeks into its run. Got 15 minutes in before someone else came by.

I watched it totally alone on Saturday night, never been in a theater alone! I’ve heard there were a lot of walk outs - which I don’t get, theres no accounting for taste of course, but I didn’t think it was leave early bad.

I loved the spectacle and the aesthetic and the fashion, the characters were sorta eh - this is a story where the characters aren’t grounded in realism but are supposed to be stand ins for ideas or movements. Aubrey Plaza was great in it, I actually kinda liked Shia LaBeouf as well. Adam Driver was so-so, but I think that was down to directing. Music choices were odd but I kinda dug it.

I really had a hard time following the plot. Lots of things happened and were resolved in the next scene - felt like about an hour was cut haphazardly. I didn’t have a theatre were an actor was hired to interview Cesar Catalina (Adam Driver) breaking the 4th walll butterfly aspect ratio and frame changed enough to keep some semblance of the effect.

• not really a spoiler it’s like the first scene.

Kind of a bizarre trip, glad Coppola got to make his Moby Dick of a movie. It’s way funnier than I was expecting something as pretentious as I figured it’d be - reminded me of Shakespeare style blending of High Art and Low Art, a comparison I’m sure Coppola would love. I bet I’ll watch this again on streaming or Blu Ray or something years later and see a bunch of stuff that didn’t make sense the first go.

Lady Gaga

I bear no resemblance. I can’t sing. I just think she’s neat.

Top is new york

Bottom is singapore, I think

You should try doing it on purpose at least once

In Canada, there used to be Residential School. My granny went to one. They were pretty horrific to say the least. There were people, at the time, who thought entering them and reforming from within was what to do.

Of course, in reality, the only morally correct option was abolition and - eventually - that’s what happened. They had some other levers to pull on the oppression machine like starlight tours and the 60s scoop and so on, but Residential School had only one morally correct position and it was not “reforming from within”

🙄

The US doesn’t have the capability to do shit like that anymore. Rate of profit is way too anemic.
