From the "Goofs" page on the Ella McKay IMDB entry "It looks like we don't have any goofs for this title yet"

A flawless movie according to the IMDB

Very quickly found these pages on a Discord server where I had posted them with the comment “Calvin & Hobbes dancing”

This one almost killed me when I was doing my Starlin read-through but Tom isn’t kidding about that Grindberg art. This shit rules

“Rhode Island style” or “bakery” or “strip” pizza, boxed in two layers

The trick is that it’s a thick, flavorful sauce so it gives you a little more kick than just pizza without any of the good parts. But when the afternoon at the YMCA drags on and you reach for that last slice left over from lunch, and it’s permeated with the all the dampnesses of the Earth… it’s bad.

I kinda like it, but “Rhode Island style pizza” is an embarrassing thing to have to explain to someone from one of the Forty-Nine Big Sisters. Basically it’s just sauce on cold, moist, flaccid dough and it manifests exclusively at children’s birthday parties in a two- or three-layer box

I imagine Hooters tried to gank the “when you’re here, you’re family” thing after taking a look at mid-2010s Pornhub trends.

No one’s ever done this for me. I gotta take stock of my friendships.

It’s been going on twenty years and I still think “creepypasta” is the worst Internet neologism ever coined. Worse than “sewerslide” and its ilk, worse than any of the looksmaxxer jargon, worse than any bit of leetspeak. It’s such a terrible word. Every time I see it it ruins my whole day

If I was PM of a G7 country, I think the part of the job I'd enjoy most would be pretending that the bilateral partnership with Luxembourg is very important

How old should your kids be before you introduce them to the adult theme of “beating the bad guys?” Sixteen? Seventeen?

A four-piece McNuggets Happy Meal contains chicken, an ingredient served by top chefs at gourmet restaurants. Is it a “kids’ meal” just because it comes with a gendered toy and a juice box?

What stands out a lot to me (and reading along with the Shelved By Genre episodes has helped) - Fellowship Of The Ring is a dying Earth novel! They’ve had three ages of stuff all several millennia long, all that’s left are pockets of failing civilisation who barely know about each other

I have started “Children Of Time.”

Another thing the show never spells out all through the Oceanic Six arc: Kate, who is lying about being Aaron’s biological mother, was literally driven to murder when she found out as an adult that Sam Austen was lying about being her biological father.

Some people accuse Lost in this period of losing sight of character, but I think it’s actually gotten subtler in some of the connections it’s drawing—as in the scenes where Kate, who killed her drunk abusive dad, bonds with Roger Linus, the drunk abusive dad who is destined to be killed by his son.

Juliet and Kate.

Juliet and Jack.

Kate, Sawyer and Jack.

Kate and Cassidy

“Whatever Happened Happened.”

DHARMA arc is so good that it can even give us a great Kate episode and make the central love rectangle feel urgent. This one just delivers scene after scene of each of these characters leaning on their deep history to dig into one another.

Passage from Michael Taussig’s “Shamanism, Colonialism, and the Wild Man” “It is an enchanting and empowering notion that, in striking contrast to what we might call the scientific model of healing and sickness on which the university training of doctors is now based, folk healers and shamans embark on their careers as a way of healing themselves. The resolution of their illness is to become a healer, and their pursuit of this calling is a more or less persistent battle with the orces of illness that lie within them as much as in their patients. It is as if serious illness were a sign of powers awakening an unfolding a new path for them to follow…The cure is to become a curer. In being healed he is also becomign a healer. In becoming one the option is whether he will succumb to the encroachment of death subsequent to soul loss, or whether he will allow the sickness-causing trauma and the healers ministrations to reweave the creative forces in his personality and life experience into a force that bestows upon himself and upon others through that bestowal.”

Robby and Abbott from The Pitt

This sort of thing basically

The nice thing about being an extremely casual gamer who’s several years behind is that every time I start a video game, almost every single person I talk to online has played it already and wants to talk to me about it. Anyway in RE7 I chainsawed a guy until his entire top half exploded

I also just think it's funny when the Avengers catch up with The Punisher a while after Secret Empire and he tries his "you just hate me because I do the things you couldn't 😑" line on Captain Marvel, and she's like "no, Frank, it's because of the coup"

I think there's something actually insightful there about the Trump coalition: a lot of credulous cynics, people who underneath their edgy jokes are desperate to be a part of something "serious" but who don't actually have an underlying set of principles, so they can be yoinked into almost anything.

Duggan / Posehn Deadpool has such a smart narrative arc: there's this long buildup of Wade becoming a real / legitimate hero with a little support and validation from Captain America and others, and then you see how that same lever can just as easily be used to flip him into a Nazi in five minutes

Redeemed somewhat by Gerry Duggan's Deadpool run, and to a lesser extent Matthew Rosenberg's Punisher run, which both use them to tease out interesting contradictions in Marvel's most obviously fascistic characters. As a story about Captain America and his supporting cast, there's nothing there.

Excited for the second half when these guys are gonna presumably start sprouting tentacles and stuff

this is just a warmed over david duke speech from 1990

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

I should start doing more stuff like this now that the weather’s turned.

Started Resident Evil 7 last night. It’s one of those games where everything looks kind of like a real movie but not really, and you just see what the main guy sees out his eyes. A lot of walking around. Obvious downsides to this approach but hopefully it’ll lead to some good scares down the line

Definitely in the lower end of the Barnes & Noble Graphic Novel Section Canon but not Loeb-level bad. I liked it as a kid
