#JifForever - Friend to Timmy the Owlbear

I block accounts following thousands of accounts, with relatively few followers, almost no posts & who don't have a profile that matches one of my interests even peripherally, as policy.
It's been so cold here (think low single digits with wind chill) that 27F is not an unreasonable temperature to grill dinner at... 🤦🏻‍♂️

When the tv show claims to be in Van Nuys... and it's clearly, not. 🤦🏻‍♂️

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Not me pretending it's not winter with bacon wrapped brats, baked beans (frozen, homemade) and chips.

What, it's below freezing outside. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Because if you care about securely owning a movie that you love--as opposed to "owning" it only until a license agreement over which you have no control expires without warning--you need a DVD or Blu-ray. The hardware may be yesterday; the concern is very much of this moment.
Why do (us) old people want to burden Gen Z with our nostalgia for an antique piece of hardware in the first place?
A (quite) young movie lover said to me recently, "Not everybody can afford a DVD player," and I said "How much do you think a DVD player costs?"

He said, "I don't know, like $500?"

Those of us who advocate physical media are maybe not doing the best job of messaging.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".
