To each their own but this seems risky.

It's really great that the bonus materials for Tess include r*pe apologia. That's super cool and I'm having a great time today.

I don't get it. Why can't she hear his heartbeat? Why hasn't she cut something in half yet? Did Zatoichi lie to me?

The unique thing about this fictional character is that he can do things that other normal people can't do. Isn't that amazing?! Brilliant insights abound in the Zatoichi box set bonus features.

By the time this is over we will have seen all his tricks, all his tactics. We will have seen where everyone else failed, so will know what to avoid. Truffaut watched a dozen gangster movies and thought he could make one. We watch 25 Zatoichi movies and we will be able to defeat him.

In a lot of political posts, people will write "LFG!" and I understand on an intellectual level that it is meant to be "Let's Fucking Go!" but I can't help reading it as "Looking for Group!" which is objectively better.

I don't really use my Twitter anymore but I keep the account active and the app on my phone. Today, I got a notification to watch an Alex Jones video about Hillary Clinton. I don't follow him and have never watched a video by him. I also thought he was banned. I am very annoyed by this.

As shows go, Succession is fine but I'm not sure how I feel about them using "Which Side Are You On?" I don't think they've earned it.

I just dragged an entire bed's worth of linens and blankets out into the yard and sprayed them with a hose at 11:30 at night because my youngest threw up in bed. Being a parent is an amazing adventure.

I think it's worth remembering that the purpose of this current "AI" boom is about disciplining labor. It doesn't have to be good or capable because that doesn't matter. The people pushing it just need to be able to point at it and say "don't get uppity or we'll give your job to the machine."

I can't get over "developed a parenting style based on something she observed when she saw tigers in the wild." Tigers being a notably sapient species with social needs indistinguishable from those of humans.

Pronatalist seems to be a synonym for unregulated child abuse factory. Perhaps people who dislike children who have "reasoned" their way into having a bunch of kids make for bad parents. I know this revelation is blowing everyone's mind.

It's not "rent-free" if they're paying by doing the childcare. Their rent is just childcare for some very idiotic people.

When I was 7, my teacher told us to write an article about “world cultures” for school over the weekend. I remembered it late on Sunday so in a panic I made up something called the "Icelandic Fish Festival", figuring said teacher wouldn’t know either way.

Occasionally when I'm watching Columbo, I'm introduced to concepts that seem entirely alien to me. Carpet in the bathroom! Truly, the past is a foreign country.
A scene from an episode of Columbo. A woman, who is about to be murdered, is taking a bath in a bathtub which is surrounded by carpet. Did she deserve to die for this grave decorating/hygiene sin? Only God can judge.

For such a heartfelt morality tale, it seems a little odd to wrap things up by calling his wife a slut. That being said, I can see why Bergman liked it.
