I don't care about Blade but Mahershala Ali being cool in the 1920s seems like an easy sell. I would watch at least three of those.

Hi! Suggestions for Roman mythology books for kids, please? Must be a physical book. Can't be AI.

I am primed to be suspicious of the unreality of algorithmic slop, but even so this disparity seemed so comically vast and sexed. But the show establishes very early on that it will show something and then recontextualise it so I was immediately uninterested in the per episode outrage nonsense.

I would be interested to hear anyone’s thoughts on “the algorithm” serving me two types of content about HBO’s #Lanterns: - women being emotionally invested in every character beat and subtext, including fully crying - men raging over the show disrespecting the characters, primarily Hal Jordan.

I intentionally listen to current country music from American artists and I have never heard of her or this song, and am only interfering it is to do with country music from context. I also haven’t heard of most hit TV shows people mention. That is just sort of how things are now.

In Quebec cars stop because they don’t want to hit anyone (imagine) and people walk around like they own the street, so you have to drive cautiously. I spent enough time there that I still mostly walk like that but I’m sure it will be fine. 💀

The pope is in France, a genuinely important visit, and I have about .001% the enthusiasm compared to when he was in Lebanon.

I am upset and worried about what comes next for Lebanon as conflict in Iran draws all eyes away from fresh Israeli strikes and continued Hezbollah defiance and belligerence. I will cope with this by posting articles about Lebanon. Que le Liban retrouve sa splendeur d'antan. لبنان رح يرجع

Maybe the below sounds callous. I hope not. It's just, two siblings and my best friend in three years, I'm kind of overwhelmed, washed out. I know life is like this and it accelerates as you get older, but man. It's rough.

Robert De Niro speaking French in the 1998 film Ronin, which the subtitles unhelpfully render only as "(speaks French)".

is this film just a hilarious prank on me specifically nearly 14 minutes in the surprisingly abundant French dialogue is suddenly accompanied by yellow hard coded subs, which are obscured by the white on black "(speaks/in French)" soft subs

I might have been snarkier about this, even if keeping that to myself, if I hadn’t finally done this myself only a month or so back. At least the little brand logo sticker wasn’t in there as well.

Interesting but if I accept your premise I have to hold Iran accountable for the 13 countries they are currently attacking including civilian targets and for the violence in the multiple countries currently occupied and terrorised by their proxies.

I’m afraid I read King’s wildly self indulgent Dark Tower books at a scandalously young age and that was my mainstream fantasy anchor point. Well that and Mario 64 making me dream of jumping into painting to go in fantastic adventures within.

Somewhat difficult to not think of this. "Knowledge of the city faded until 1963, when it was rediscovered after a resident of the area, while renovating his home, knocked through a basement wall and found a mysterious room behind it.", en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derinku...

He is the sort of guy that responds to something he says or does being called gay by doubling down on it. Which is cool but also he is funny and creative and collaborates with a range of great people. You are in for a treat.

I really have no choice but to assume you are alluding to the year AM 5209, an auspicious time seeing the coronation of the final Byzantine Emperor and the development of moveable-type printing presses in Europe. It is fun drawing a throughline from the printing press to personal computers, right.

that actually isn't the most offensive thing he has done or said, but we get to argue about it forever because it was a while ago and he apologised, so never mind everything else.
