Where does someone like Janelle Monae fit into this discussion (whole thread, not just this post)?

Hand to god, I thought that said "Gut Blaze" until I enlarged the image

I guess it is called SUNDAY Ticket, but it's annoying to have my card charged today and be unable to watch the (out of market for me) Lions' preseason game.

The Gathering concert on Arte is pretty incredible. Anneke van Giersbergen's voice is still magical and the band sounds great together.

Did ln't some Detroit media person try this with Spielman back in the 90s, and learn that it was a profoundly bad idea to ask Chris Spielman to tackle you?

When I lived in Ypsi, the globetrotters came to EMU, and this was the email subject line I used when inviting my friends to the game.

I would prefer that if it benefits my team, they use the rule of cool and let it stand. However, if it benefits my team's opponent, they should breakout an electron microscope and the Hubble to prove it doesn't count.

😂 I think I am older than you though.

I knew he wasn't quite 10 years older than me! But I couldn't remember my age when he turned 40. God I've lived here so long now.

I think this is the first episode of Law & Order I ever saw. It was a pretty good introduction to the series with all its twists and turns.

We meet again, Manul Monday.
A manul standing partially obscured behind a rock, looking ahead with a neutral expression and eyes half lidded making it seem unimpressed.

In a silly mental space where reading twenty pages of Finnish in the last week feels like a failure, because I read fifty the week before.

I had missed this the first time around, but there's something wonderfully uncanny about the ladders.

It's a Finnish historical horror film, heavily influenced by Stalker, imo. Great direction and cinematography. Ville Virtanen and Tommi Eronen are excellent in the lead roles. Also I just think a horror film about maps and geography is a cool idea.

Kynsilakanpoistoainepullo is a good Finnish word. It means 'nail polish remover bottle.' Found in Rosa Liksom's Hytti nro 6.

I saw that in the theater when it came out, and the audience had no patience for it. Lots of people talking and shouting back to the screen.

Generally B for me, I like my vampires rather monstrous. Although when A turns to B (à la Wilczyca), that's quite appealing too.

Is that a receiver, a pre-amp or something else in the center?

At the IU softball game, and can confirm the winds are strong and wild out here. Lots of balls leaving the park.

You watch the NFL, presumably sometimes on CBS; how could you have possibly avoided this knowledge.

I can't explain, but I love it when ground beef comes in that style of packaging.

Requiem and Dancer in the Dark were the two movies that came immediately to mind for this question.

in a cave, a neolithic figure draws a lascaux style horse. around them, three cats self domesticate, killing a snake, presenting a mouse, and rubbing against their leg. the scene is illuminated by a torch resting on the cave wall.

Your colleague should have known that someone with a Moby-Dick throw pillow would be familiar with "The Whale as a Dish."
