Absolutely one of the most fun films of the last 10 years. Still begging for a "same cast playing different characters" sequel.

Over the weekend my wife and I were lead for some reason (Spotify’s algorithm) to listen to the music from Chess the musical, and ever since then, we’ve been adapting it in our heads to a musical about Pokemon. It all started with “one night in Kalos and the world’s your Cloyster…”

My twelve-year-old daughter's Christmas haul included a cassette Walkman and a Discman, and music to play on both. Yes, part of it is STRANGER THINGS. But part of it is the seemingly inevitable swing towards throwback tech, coupled with the current longing to be LEFT ALONE TO LISTEN TO SHIT

Hence my point about being mindful of what you feed your brain and paying attention to what you pay attention to. Looking at what you consume and paying attention to how consuming it makes you feel, what it inspires in you and what those feelings motivate you to do... or NOT do.

And that's the problem. It's not that there's one thing that provokes a massive cortisol spike, it's the constant, low-level hum of despair that builds over time, like heavy metals accumulating in our bloodstream and our brain, that diminishes our capacity for hope or optimism.

Our planet is buried in convenient shit. Bad but easy food. Bad but easy art. Bad but easy narratives, followed by bad but easy conclusions. Prioritizing convenience disincentivizes the slow work of contemplation. Perhaps, even, of questioning. michaelianblack.substack.com/p/cheap-fast...

If I am ever elected to any legislative body, my first bill will be that all bills need to be titled by randomly picking a quote from the Simpsons. No more “Patriot” acts. Goodbye “Right to Work”. And my new bill will be called… [rolls dice]… The “My cat’s breath smells like cat food” bill

I should’ve known. Dealing with having to send a form thru the mail and they ask for a copy of either a drivers license, state ID card… or PASSPORT. I really should’ve known. Why did they need it? To verify my identity. And my address. Guess which form of id doesn’t have your address?

Frustrated with trying to make old tech useable for something/anything. Got a couple of very old MacBooks that I thought would be great for the kitchen to track what’s in the pantry/fridge or play music. Even forced an OS upgrade, but any apps I try say it’s still too old. Tv won’t connect either

Since Elves live so much longer than humans, would they have domesticated plants and animals that have breeding cycles that were too long for humans to selectively breed? Like, acorns or elephants?
