I have absolutely no problem with this.

Up Her Where!?

Wasn't there talk of a mass strike in the U.S., at some point? We should do that.

Also they think it's their only hope of sex, because nobody willingly chooses them.

I imagine it looks like boogers when you have a bad cold.

Crusader Kings recently finally got its claws into me. Fun fact: the game DOES have a moral compass of sorts, because eventually, your incestuous off-spring can be too mentally handicapped to have further children with.

So it's not all bad.

How can this NOT mean that all CIA agents are like Mr. Magoo?

How do you fail at a singular task more than 600 times and still have the world think you're some fearsome spy force?

"Well, sure, he was knocked out 638 times, but those 2 decision victories sure were something... Greatest boxer of all-time!"

These days, it's zero crying for me, but that first time, I had a loooot to work through. And I was in an unfamiliar place/country. And my friends didn't take theirs and went to sleep, leaving me awake by myself. And then I took my friend's dose, too, because it "wasn't doing anything."

I'll just stick to streaming it free, thanks.

It counts much more.

"Ferrari engine with bicycle brakes"

 

There's a lot of gold for a 2:00 clip, but my favorite subtle part is that he appears to throw a frisbee for her to fetch at 0:55, after telling her to scram and just before telling her she has a great ass.

 

It's just so cool. I would love to compose a piece of music on a punch sheet for one of these--like a precursor to MIDI that's arguably superior (in that it features real, physical instruments).

Also sort of the "AI will destroy music" of the early 1900s.

 

Kind of random, but I've always enjoyed this. She's absolutely pitch-perfect and her voice pierces the room despite no microphone and being recorded on a crappy cell phone.

I love the hushed awe and participation of everyone in the bar. Would have been a magical moment.

 

I find fractals extremely fascinating and way, way, way out of my depth. One example being the Barnsley Fern, which I find so cool. It feels a bit like someone cracked a little piece of the Matrix code.

But is there anything really significant about the fact that it looks like a fern from a botanical/mathematical perspective? Do the two connect in any real way? Can we somehow find the math genetically or learn something about the mathematical properties of other leaves, for example? How "real" is it?

If I could make an oak leaf from fractals, would it advance mathematics and/or botany or would it be equivalent to creating a cartoon using Geogebra (nice to look at, but basically meaningless)?

 

In the past, I've relied on whatever stream I happen to be able to find through whatever sketchy site and it's really frustrating.

Are there any legit, reliable ways to catch NFL games as they're happening (ideally that don't require a cable subscription/tuner card)?

 

The way he keeps raising his voice somehow makes it so much worse.

 

I would describe it as Napoleon Dynamite meets Mister Rogers directed by Wes Anderson.

It's a lovely show that got cancelled after 3 seasons, but the seasons they got were really special and worth watching. There's a very subtle, sweet storyline throughout the story that isn't immediately obvious if you just jump around via clips.

 

Inspired by this video, which someone posted recently.

And, yes, this is a legit showerthought!

 

Timely and timeless 84(!) years later.

 

Masterful mixing, too.
