Hello Bluesky! You all seem by and large like wonderful people. I hope I come off as someone who is earnestly trying to be kind and thoughtful and hopefully I earn your trust that if a post ever comes off as not that, that that isn’t the way I intended it.
Recently watched the Untouchables which with the benefit of hindsight appears to be a movie about “doing what’s necessary” but in reality seems to glorify, mostly uncritically, the same level of violent justice in the “good guys” that it demonizes in the bad guys.

So on Tears of the Kingdom I’m doing the wind temple first as the game seems to nudge you to do but MAN that is really setting the bar high. I’ll be impressed if the rest of the dungeons measure up to that walk up

Rewatched Elf and the Zooey Deschanel scene singing Baby it’s cold outside is my favorite rendition of that song… it’s so beautifully sweet with Will Ferrell softly singing the response but when you remove that beautiful combo of voices… why exactly did she have to be singing in the shower… at work?

What do you think the over/under is on the number of alien species that are simply manifestations writ large of one particular viewpoint from human history where our interactions with them will essentially distill down into how that viewpoint is bad?

The reason it takes me so long to get through my game list is because each time a game is popular I have to work with Ashley Judd and Wesley Crusher to figure out how the game works at a circuitry level to figure out if it stimulates the septal area like a psychotropic reaction.

The conclusion this article comes to with respect to how to deal with problematic art is compelling. Too often people get put through horrific things and then at the end (in cases where it’s not their request which is obviously different) it sometimes seems like their effort is also taken away with…
The New Version of Kill Bill Is Both More Satisfying and More Disturbing

Rarely do this but I needed caffeine so I stopped by McDonald’s for breakfast and the guy in front of me’s order was still there.
Ohana it was 152 dollars worth of sausage McMuffins. I almost got a photo but it was cleared as I was taking it. Amazing start to the day.

Eldest has been getting into fitness which, good for him, but also now he’s just walking around the house leaned back with his shirt open so he’s showing off his abs like some hedonistic Superman and I’m at the stage of “you have to promise me you’re not gonna do that at school, right? … RIGHT?!”

I am a grown ass almost middle age man who bought comics with the money I made at a good job and I just desperately flung the comic I was reading in the waiting room into my bag because someone else walked into the empty room.
Good grief

Had a rough day yesterday sat down on steps in exhaustion and just being overwhelmed by everything needing unrelenting responsibility. Too grumpy by half, admittedly.
Very young Daughter gave me a hug and said “I just wish the world was easier”.
Yeah peanut, me too.

Accidentally left office too early to pick up kids so stopped by the discount bookstore to flip through comics. They had a silver age Superman for $5 but it was listed “as is” because the cover was torn and I wondered what the other option was? Would it come with a genie that would untear the cover?

When the phrase “a well functioning machine has redundant systems” is used that should not apply to red tape and yet… <sigh> here I am copying the same info from one spreadsheet looked at group A to another spreadsheet looked at by group B
