I truly wonder how these people manage to live until adulthood. "Hmmm, things aren't going well for me, let's try something different. Today I'm going to stick my head in a tub of boiling oil!"

It was especially funny cause when he walked in I thought he was some drunk frat bro kind of guy and then I heard him dropping hard facts about R-Patz so I decided to mosey on over to see if he knew about High Life.

The vibe when you meet someone at a bar who has also seen High Life (2018), the first English language movie from French director Claire Denis about a crew of death row inmates sent on a space ship to a black hole. Starring Robert Pattison and Juliet Binoche.

Wild how this one broke containment into normie space. I was at a folk punk show last night and before they did a murder ballad the singer talked about the history of the song and referenced this discourse.

Yes this is from the movie, in Act 1 Bart is dared to ride his skateboard nude. There's an Austin Powers gag where objects he passes hide his genitals from the audience until one brief shot. This happens at the end.

If you're curious what the tech billionaire vision of the future is then shop at Walmart. I set my basket down to look at tablet cases and a minute later an employee moved it onto a shelf. Said the AI camera system had flagged it as a "potential hazard" on the floor.

I only know that because that famous Ted line was sampled on a Megadeth song, I think a clerk at a seashore trinket shop asked me a trivia question once when I was twelve and was impressed I knew his nickname was Jack

Authenticity is a mug's game but, it does feel slightly more authentically country to listen to a solo acoustic banjo set from a Queer West Virginian than a Mr. F-150 concert

Been doing pretty well with my "not drinking on weekdays" thing. But I just finished a very long horror novel, that I mostly liked despite it's meandering, that had the worst ending I think I've read in a long time and now I want some beer.

How much money is there in hotel art? Do people pay good money for that? This is like how lots of Gen-AI is cat videos, the thing people don't pay money for because there's already so much of it and it costs near nothing to make.
