Oh my gods, is @beijingpalmer.bsky.social right? Is Trump a practitioner of huanjing bunao?
Just a reminder that in addition to Trump refusing to exercise because he thinks the body is like an alkaline battery with a lifetime store of energy so anytime you do anything you steal that energy and it cannot be recharged, he's also a germaphobe who is afraid of being poisoned.

If one listened to Rachel Reeves, one might suppose that the British state introduced the two child benefit cap solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it

I'll make Robert Eggers churn out masterful yearly period pieces on pain of death for the next three decades.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

very funny that within like 20 minutes of these posts i already got a “he has this bad take because works for the new york times” quote post. no, i have this correct take because i’m not so blinded by fan service slop that i can’t evaluate a film on its own merits

My body is a machine that turns ample free time to accomplish my goals into a disorganized frenzy to do one single task in 8 hours
I view posting as an ideological project and my ideology is to put off doing the work I need to do.

I'm still pretty sure that since 1815, the French Army has seen its main purposes as, in ascending order:

Fighting a European war.
Killing brown people.
Killing other French people.

this is probably true but i also think it's not crazy to say "i dont really want to play this game but id like to listen to someone tell me what happens in it"
"you have not played the game unless you've played the game" is one of my more annoying but unshakable opinions
the whole "don't play the game, just watch a video on youtube that will explain its story to you" is so disheartening because the issue of accessibility is genuinely really important but it's always just people who want to be spoon-fed nicely quantifiable information

Lecture in class was about stories and fandoms in tech companies on the border (particularly Anduril and Palantir). So thank you to @mikesenters.bsky.social for preparing me for this.

On some level I really have to question the wisdom of fields that are almost totally dependent on governmental largesse deciding that an opposition to the government or even the institution itself. Do you think you are going to be able to call for the system to fall within the system endlessly?

rogue one is bad folks. i have believed this since i saw it in theaters and no subsequent rewatch has changed my mind. basically a chop job until the final sequence, which is good (for star wars)
