do NOT sleep on Blood Incantation's Absolute Elsewhere if you even remotely f with death #metal it is easily the best metal album of the year and it's not even close #orcs #dickpunch
Screenshot of a text chat where the writer describes how Blood Incantation's album Absolute Elsewhere makes him feel, quote "it makes me want to run a marathon while punching 1000 orcs in the dick" unquote.

happy #GravyDay iykyk
popular meme of a seagull singing paul kelly’s timeless Aussie xmas anthem How To Make Gravy. the first 3 panels feature an ordinary looking seagull joyfully singing the lyrics. the last shows the seagull violently throwing its head back, as if to draw in a massive lungful of air to more effectively bellow the song’s iconic refrain, “AND GIVE MY LOVE TO ANGUS!” which most Aussies exuberantly sing, mirroring the seagull’s passion and fervour.

emulsions were less sensitive back then and larger lenses for larger film formats were slower (smaller max aperture) but you're right, this would've been a diff of seconds, not minutes. you know who's an expert on old film processes? Barrett Oliver (played Bastian in Neverending Story (pictured)

i am not an academic. also not scared of something that doesn't happen much. the US is different of course. BECAUSE of the easy availability of firearms. you are the world outlier in violent gun crime. even where ownership levels are similar or comparable. consider why.
