(I still maintain that Jaws is best in black and white on a tiny TV in your parents’ kitchen with popcorn and a blanket: my parents knew how to do it)

right!? like I would show it now to children otherwise too young, because they need to see it before they see ten other things that reference the creature lifecycle so it isn’t a surprise, first

and I’d kill to watch it without expecting (it’s great when you know, but imagine not knowing?)

is this one of those where actually the Greek bits were just recycled paper and there was something far more meaningful to the deceased or their family written on the other side of it?

Abandon Ship YouTube video by Gallows

tangentially the new unobtanium is a music video messy enough to get censored, with catchy lyrics unrelated to the video that search engines cannot digest

IIRC the music video involves someone giving birth to the other band members in the back of a u-haul while they sing about an alligator rug

can we talk about how many late 90s early 2000s songs were either about abortion or sex work to pay for children?

the whole Moulin Rouge soundtrack counts

My mother, who grew up in time to be the Counterculture, 10000% believed in this theory. "They didn't want anyone to turn out like us again," she'd say. "They wanted more control. So they razed education."

A gray tortie named Harley sitting up wearing a taco outfit to keep her from licking her fur off. Her eyes look bewildered and personally offended by her palindromic existence.

when they made you a taco cat and you'll never get over it

those cops were so dirty I’m surprised they didn’t retroactively free/re-try a ton of other guys they helped convict

they screwed up every goddamn thing

don’t give the POTUS any ideas

imagine having so much pull at a studio that you could get them to waste money re-releasing the original film you’re making a sequel to

cops are useless for medical response, list entry 97474794

because we’re not united enough in animosity towards a third group: the TSA

Four hands grab faster than two!

if you see this post something orange from your gallery

anyways another angle is I think best summed up by advice for packing light

if you have enough wealth, you never carry a water bottle in a backpack downtown because you can always get a taxi to buy snacks

The other fabulous part of the AI publicity plan is “teach this junkware everything you know so that I, a rich CEO, can use it to put you out of work”. Wild how that isn’t being received with enthusiasm by the general public.

I’ve been interviewing DV survivors for 7 years. At least 30% of the women in American prisons incarcerated on m_rder and mansl_ughter charges were protecting themselves or a loved one from DV or SV. ... TikTok video by Justine
