No roasting pan? Won't the juices drip all over the inside of the oven?

I think about this a lot. Social media has conditioned us to want to share everything. We are going to have to learn that many acts of resistance need to remain secret.

Also what other horror movie has a scene that used 36,000 gallons of fake blood??

It is the antithesis of all the movies that over-explain because they're afraid of YouTube critics pointing out "plot holes."

This movie has a message and by god it nails it, with expert craft at every level.

Actually I haven't sung enough praises for this movie. This was one of the most Pure Artistic Vision films I've seen in years. It's weird! It's gross! It is running on pure Story Logic and not any kind of realistic basis.

This is true and they are super endangered by poachers who shovel them up by the hundreds and sell them at flea markets and shit. You should not buy the plants and if you happen to kick the poacher in the shins on accident, no one will hear about it from me.

still amazing to me the number of movies, games, etc. which have Venus Flytrap-based creatures in some form compared to the actual native range of Venus Flytrap, which is like, the great untamed jungles of a few wet pine savannas in North Carolina

The best weapons we average schumucks have against facism is humor and knowledge. Knowing the truth and mocking the absurd can be extremely powerful in the face of wannabe authoritarian arrogance.

Why are reporters even entertaining the notion that he was ever a possibility?

Nah the funniest thing possible would be to give it to Obama *again.* You know Trump only cares because he can't stand that Obama got one.

A good tactic! Most snakes want nothing to do with a giant stompy human.

They want to look tough and macho as they kidnap children, pretending they're fighting dangerous criminals, but it is very hard to look tough pointing a gun at people in silly costumes.

I’m not kidding when I say these weird ass costumes and antics are actually an extremely effective tactic from a media standpoint bc when enough people do them, the media can’t fully scrub them out

I feel like what's even more galling is we all knew this is exactly what would happen but Democrats refused to push for the court reform that might have prevented it.

EXTREMELY COOL BAT STUFF: A study out in Science today found that the greater noctule bat, Europe's largest, hunts and catches *migrating birds* while in flight. In at least one case, a bat climbed to more than 1200 feet, then chased a robin downward FAST until it caught it near the ground.

Greater noctule bats prey on and consume passerines in flight

Despite billions of passerines seasonally migrating during the night at high altitudes, only three bat species have been found to consistently tap into this rich prey resource. However, it remains unk...
