I just read an article about the evidence Luigi's lawyer is trying to suppress, which said it included a to-do list the police say is tied to the murder, and whatever else happens I want to see this thing.

I like watching movies on my phone, but only an idiot would say there's no difference.
Also, every streaming service insists there's no way for them to measure the metrics we get from theater ticket sales, or to turn a profit from movies released exclusive to streaming unless the platform has ads.

Uhm no. Your coworker is wrong, doesn’t understand the history of Black America, and is kinda racist? Black America is one of the biggest contributors to WORLD culture that exists cause America also exports a huge amount of our culture. You’re welcome Norway. (Whose entire culture is pickled fish.)

Look, I know corporations aren't my friends, but I still hate to see Warner Brothers treated the way it is. It was a legendary studio and it *should* still be.
Can someone just buy it and operate it as its own thing without all the fucking parent companies?

Usually people ask this intending an unspoken "pertinent," but is there any question that isn't pertinent to physics?
while making some tea i remembered a substitute Physics teacher we had at school for a bit who'd end every lesson with a general "do you have any questions?" segment and one person asked why when you forget to boil a kettle you can tell by the sound because hot and cold water sound different

Quentin Tarantino is the first person to mention Lost In Translation (2003) as anything other than a footnote in someone's career since 2004.

This whole thing is racist, but take particular note of the threat of denaturalization. That's stripping people of their citizenship, and that's the road to mass murder and atrocity.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

Thanksgiving is the sole Food Oriented Holiday for which I have no interest in culinary creativity or novelty. I want turkey and stuffing and potatoes and green bean casserole and I want gravy on all of it.
“Liven up your stuffing with persimmons” no, fuck that, I will liven it up with gravy.

Twin Cities MN folks, question:
Do you know a pain management specialist who is not a dick to people in pain?
I need a specialist who 1) believes in chronic pain of unknown etiology, 2) is willing to provide pain relief for conditions that never improve, and 3) IS NOT A JERK.

A mother of 8 was sexually abused by an ICE officer.
She went public with the abuse, and was deported the very next day.
Her lawyer says she had a stay on her deportation order
They disappeared her so she couldn’t speak out.
Silvia Reyna Mendoza deserves justice.
ICE should be abolished.
