Is it normal to get that far on your first run to the surface? (Wish I were running with a different weapon.)

The Quakers here locally have a fucking army of trained de-escalators who show up to these things. They’re pretty impressive, imho.

On the 18th we need to be vigilant for increased violence and provocation by both law enforcement and counter-protestors, both of which will be used to try to justify more violence and authoritarianism.

I don't think he could have made it through one take of principal photography

is it not weird that every day there’s a new video of anonymous masked men having the time of their lives beating/shooting/disappearing people and the dem response from the top down is “republicans want to double your health insurance premiums”

Ooooh, you are so right.
He wouldn’t be able to stop himself from making fun of the characters for having feelings. I think he could put the script on a screen, but it’d be a mockery.

GolgariGlenRoss @golgariglenross.bsky.social · 8h

Correct. Completely outside his skill set.

I believe M Night Shymalan could not make this movie.

If you took the screenplay of David Lynch’s The Straight Story and handed it to another director, who is a director who couldn’t do it? Who would mess up a completely straightforward, gimmick-free story about human emotions?

GolgariGlenRoss @golgariglenross.bsky.social · 8h

Big Fish was exactly my evidence that I thought he could do it.
Here’s an interesting question:

GolgariGlenRoss @golgariglenross.bsky.social · 8h

I want Tim Burton to do something like David Lynch’s The Straight Story. I want to see if he could (I think he could).

People are still doing “there aren’t going to be midterms” posts as we see these people struggle to handle a guy in a frog costume

Thought maybe I could shortcut it and if I understood the move, I could intuit the algorithm, but no, have to learn by rote and develop understanding from there.
Not my typical learning style, much to the chagrin of my teachers back when I was in school.

Memorizing Rubik’s cube algorithms—I was trying to read and at the same time figure out why they work and every time, I fucked it up. Seeing now that I have to rote-memorize the moves and figure out why it works from there.

Okay, so admittedly the first Tron was a critical and box office flop, and the second Tron was also a critical and box office flop, but I have some high expectations for this new Tron starring a man who exclusively makes critical and box office flops!

I own fourteen Spider-man cards; one booster pack. I got a Rent Is Due. It’s going to go into King Darien.

NarukamiKnight @narukamiknight.bsky.social · 17h

So, how many Spider-man cards did you end up putting in your not-Spider-man decks?

Which ones?

Yeah, Ninja Turtles and Avatar the Last Airbender will be draftable, playable sets.

Jesus Christ, it was the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Everyone is supposed to get a perfect score.

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

The people who have opinions about this reaaaaaally have opinions about it.

I don’t know if J&J is relieved that they’ve spun Tylenol off to it’s own, independent division and they don’t have to deal with this, or if they’re disappointed because when this lawsuit is over, they’re going to be the richest company that makes a generic product in the world.

ATLA is a big fantasy world. Plenty of grist for the card mill.

Who the fuck is “We” here? You dismantled the infrastructure to even conduct this study.
