I can’t prove it but my gut says the number of home redecoration projects that have started from similar circumstances is…substantial.

That stylized portrayal of Agamemnon (whose villain arc is genuinely unmatched by a decent chunk of classical cannon IMO) was so on point though I’m still thinking about it

I think the fact that my reaction to “The Odessey” film was to spend the whole ride home researching the veracity of some of the historical claims made at the end and then to rant to my empty apartment about the narrowness of that lens really tells you all you need to know about me as a person.

Sometimes you need to hold the throne, sometimes you need to meticulously plot your revenge and jumpstart the fall of the House of Atreus. Do what you need to get through the day.

Indeed. We are not forcing upon Graham the memory of him being a villain, a coward, and a malignant presence in the country; that was the legacy he chose again and again. He earned our contempt, as has everyone else on his path.

It’s much more balm than cream, for sure. I see folks using it like they would an overnight mask and that seems to work for me. YMMV though!

It’s very hydrating (I have extremely dry skin so that’s critical for me) but what really sold me was that I was peeling from a retinoid and had a conference the next morning…and this soothed the issue overnight. I wouldn’t recommend for a day cream but the overnight results are legit

It’s incredible that two of the acting awards went to horror film performances. Historically the Academy has not valued genre films in spite of the fact that they’re so incredibly hard to do well and seeing horror get that kind of acknowledgment is very neat.

TBH feel like Tom Holland might have brought so much nuance to Paul Atreides that even those of us who know what happens would have thought “…maybe not? This time?” I’ll be thinking about that for DAYS.

What stands out to me is the arrogance. The surefootedness that this was the correct thing to do despite no experience in government. The presumption that they were entitled to use their own uninformed judgement to cut funds to things that they don’t personally value www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

I think about this all the time. And for faculty in good jobs it still has some of that — I do enjoy knowledge making. But those are so so few and everywhere else the academe is indentured labor to a loan shark.

TC said in an interview with Matthew McConaughey that he wouldn’t want to be a ballet dancer or opera singer “keeping this thing alive” even though no one cares anymore. 500+ years of artistry fueled clapback skills have since proceeded to show themselves to great advantage.

Watching the classical performance internet drag Timothee Calamity to hell and back is incredibly entertaining. If I were a dude who only recently added a fourth facial expression to my acting rep I simply would not come for the best in the business but that’s me.

Liver's cheap because there's low demand for it. If everyone started eating it, it would become expensive. And even if everyone loved it, it's only recommended that you eat it once a week, or you risk vitamin A toxicity. Would be nice if the secretary of HEALTH knew that!
