Quote post with a song you can't hear without thinking of a movie it was in The Lost Boys (1987).
The vinyl single of the Echo & the Bunnymen cover of "People are Strange".  Jami Gertz, Kiefer Sutherland, and Jason Patric's characters in pride of place.

Happy Armistice day to all.

Post a movie you like with a terrible Rotten Tomatoes score. (I don't care what anybody says, "Toys" is a brilliant film top to bottom).
Screen cap of "Toys" on RT.  PG-13, released Dec. 18, 1992, Starring Robin Williams, LL Cool J, Joan Cusack, and Robin Wright.  The tomatometer sits at 26% and popcornmeter at 39%.

No clue why, but this has been playing in my brain for a day or so:
Photo/graphic borrowed from Axios (I know, sorry), from a story about a Dem super PAC targeting Senator Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) who is no longer seeking reelection.  On the right sits Senator Ernst in dark clothes, holding a mic, American flag behind her.  On the left is written:  Senator Joni Ernst "Well, we are all going to die."

Drawing from "The Sneetches" by Dr. Seuss (pub. 1961).  Two Sneetches with stars upon thars are pointing to their bellies, smiling wide.  A Sneetch without stands to the side, shoulders slumped and eyes sad.

QT this post with someone you wish was still alive.
Photo of Lance Solomon Reddick at SDCC in 2010 (taken by Gage Skidmore, borrowed from Wikipedia).  

The incomparable Mr. Reddick is wearing a Dark tan pinstripe suit coat over a dark grey t-shirt.  His beautiful bald head is shining, he's got on his perfect unframed eyeglasses, and he's smiling that smile he had that made you want to just be near him and bask in his radiance.  I will miss you until the day *I* die, sir.  Love and care to your surviving family.

Like this:
A grid-based logic puzzle showing Anita has owned her dog since 2008, Fernando's chow-chow has been with him since 2007, and Ginger owns a dog named Molly, the rest of the grid has yet to be filled in.  It is a very dorky pastime.

You do! Here's a great (long) explainer, and an example photo (with alt-text!), for reference. AFAICT, you get better at it as you go, so no pressure, just know that anything is better than nothing. 💜 www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

No worries! It's difficult, until you get used to it. Here's a (long) explainer, and an example photo, for reference. You can set your own preferences to remind you to do it and that helps. www.perkins.org/resource/how...

post a *perfect* album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, pearl jam, soundgarden, or alice in chains.
The photograph used for the cover of the album "Flood" by They Might be Giants depicts a man rowing a boat made out of strung-together washbasins. The image was captured by Margaret Bourke-White as part of a series taken to document the Ohio River flood of 1937.
