I'm exceptionally terrible at dating apps but met so many people on OKC back in the mists of time that became pals, its always very sad what a pale shadow of itself that site became
I just drove past a short and very miserable looking queue at the academy
I have a fondness I can't really explain for the 2007 Rambo. I did see an article somewhere discussing how, despite its *many* issues, the character feels connected to the one in First Blood in the way that part 2 and 3 did not.
My perfect edit would have the Hadley's Hope as a dream Newt is having, like when we see Ripley notice she's having a nightmare. I like it as a scene but having it before they arrive on planet suck any tension out of what's to come.
Mysteries of Instagram stories - post pics from work, tagging multiple performers, they repost that on their own stories.. i get like 50-60 views. Post a throwaway dumb selfie from years back and it gets like thrice as many?! But how? You cant even see what it is till you open it? I'm so confused
Last night a tried to drag and drop 10547 photos into the google photos window to back them up from the dropbox i used to use, but what actually happened was it opened 10547 new chrome tabs and im genuinely shocked my pc isn't now a silvery puddle bubbling into the carpet
I mean, Soderberg's 'Contagion' is to my mind one of the most unsettling, especially after, well, y'know.
12 Monkeys as mentioned is a great but never really par tof the main narrative outside of being a thing to come. 28 days remains a banger, also The Thing.
Wildcards - Rabid, or Lifeforce
I just by a new bigger drive whenever one is getting too old/low on space and if the current one is still fine i copy its contents to the new one, then place it ina drawer as a backup, definitely nothing can go wrong with this system nuh uh
I also feel i should have learned NAS stuff a while ago but instead i just opted for a motherboard with a decent number of SATA and NVME slots and a bunch of non small hard drives because I'm an idiot (aka a photographer)
Been woken up by the storm about half a dozen times but the power in the house remained on right up till I went to make my coffee
I hope whomever was responsible for implementing the instagram grid layout change finds themselves in a room containing a masked figure wielding an iron bar who has a great dislike for unbroken fingers

Goodnight, Sweet Pea 💙

Happy Dreaming.
The bit about 'scary stories to tell in the dark' reminded me of the cursed book I used to read under the covers at my grandparents when I stayed over when I was like 8, that I still own and am haunted by to this day as a 45yr old man
2024's number of pics taken being nearly as much as the last 10 years combine dis kinda wild and perhaps explains how i managed to wear out the main dial on my 5D Mk4.
Mildly irked im not hitting the quarter mil (unless i reeeeaaaally rip the arse out of tuesday nights shift)

Shadow of the Pacific Rim
Im too thrown by the Nameless King fight being in there
The thing that's always got me about that ep is how the soundtrack sounds eerily similar to Soderberg's version of Solaris and and i think it might be deliberate given whats going on
This would have been like 2 days of downloading before I got fibre a month ago
The chilling realisation that I've taken more photos this year than the last 6 combined and that I might have to start looking at setting up a NAS as i've no more space for hard drives in this PC
