GP shocked at how difficult it is to find scaffolding in Manhattan

I mean she did have us watch Barton Fink because yadda yadda Dante’s Inferno.

Did we do Paradise Lost in Classic Lit? This feels awful Miltonian.

unfamiliar with Wendell Berry. Did your man from The Mosquito Coast read him and get inspired?

Hmm. I don’t see it. Maybe it’ll become more apparent in the back half of the film.

I don’t remember that! Was it connected to a piece of literature?

Well crafted film! I hate this guy!

The worst kind of guy is the guy from a post industrial society who thinks “I can make subsistence farming into a nice lifestyle”. Worst guy

Having a great time watching The Mosquito Coast (1986)

There's a very real possibility that the inhumanity of today may lead to the political will for immigration reform tomorrow. Anyone who leads with anything less than open borders is ultimately hoping for this shitty situation.

God bless. I wish I could join you. Eat 100 mm of sub for me.

Awr naaaahr

just one more question, sir

this is also untrue! I recommended that people bother to crack a book on city design! all of which offer a plethora of practical advice!

the problem with australian vocab is that this could be some "drop bears" style fucking with the foreigners or be completely sincere and I have no idea which

my one local celebrity encounter in Minnesota was when Slug came up to the counter of the Lakewinds Richfield coffee bar and asked me if 16 oz was our biggest size. I said "yes" and he wordlessly left.

How on earth does someone arrive at the thinking that REMOVING PRIDE FLAGS at a coffee shop in SAN FRANCISCO is a GOOD idea?

“Hi, I own a Philadelphia sports bar and let’s get rid of all this Eagles shit! You know, FOR BUSINESS.”

huh! TIL! listening now and it's abundantly clear that that the rhythm work is a harpsichord but I never would have realized that without reading that. fun!

some guitar players have really specific skill trees and that's just how it goes!

hey boss. I've got 22 years in the food & bev / hospitality industry with 16 of them being in Minneapolis. DDP could afford to pay his workers what they're asking but he'd need to have less porche money. crucially he'd also have to give up total control. it's an ego thing! hth

not Ramza. Before Delita leaves the party. jesus. Clown shit. can't believe I mixed up Ramza and Delita.

it's like a very specific FFT build where you've got characters who are Dancers and Ninjas before Ramza leaves the party but also no one knows how to use a High Potion either.

like if you did nothing but Fleetwood Mac grinding you could probably get there in under a year, but you'd fucking hate doing it and would also absolutely hate that song by the end of the year.

there's a couple different ways to take this. One is "how long would it take to become good enough at guitar generally to where one could easily learn to play Never Going Back Again" and "how long would it take to specifically learn Never Going Back Again and nothing else about the guitar"

squidward was definitely a protestant. adds up.

Nearly fell over laughing at this
