I suggest watch David Lynch’s Dune and Paul Verhoeven’s Robocop. leave all the special-editionized things to collect dust. don’t open that jar of Jar Jar. appreciate some 1980s science fiction that hasn’t been tampered with over the years so you can better see where Force Awakens is coming from and can better…

so is Musk going to build Ultron himself as a stepping stone to Vision?

was that a tank going over a waterfall? sold. can i buy my ticket now and camp out in front of the movie theater?

the book: The Orphan Palace, by Joe Pulver. On the Road meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with a healthy dollop of the King In Yellow.
The director: David Lynch,
the score: Angelo Badalamenti. i read the book while listening to the Twin Peaks soundtrack, and it eerily fit.

if Orphan palace doesn’t count because it…

candied bacon is great because it freezes well, so you can make it ahead of time, stick it in the cooler, and enjoy a slice of three whenever you stop.

for long drives, I bring a thermos of cold brewed coffee, water (reusable bottles filled partway then frozen and topped off with liquid water), pop tarts, and nuts. I usually have some candied bacon and other holiday leftovers with me on the return trip.

i have spent christmas alone for about 10 years. i don’t like traveling in winter, don’t like anyone nearby enough to celebrate with them. i treat it like a regular day off, ranking it somewhere around columbus day in terms of how important of a holiday it is.

I imagine the appearance section of the judging form is “Clear? Y N”

I haven’t seen this yet, but i am curious about emotions having emotions about other emotions.

I somehow confused Ghost Forest with Suicide Forest.

on a long enough timeline, the Euthanatos will come out on top. Everything falls apart.

Maybe the outfit itself is a joke, so people mistake criminal mastermind for crazy meth user?

any method that produces tasty scrambled eggs is a good method. when cooking for myself i go Gordon Ramsay style in a pan that has bacon and bits of sweet potato or acorn squash at the bottom for a nice breakfast bowl, but the salt-and-sit method described above sounds good for making a big batch of eggs for multiple…

also “As Above, so Below,” for the various scenes of the past coming back to haunt the characters in the Paris catacombs.

so that’s what happened to Warren Ellis’ goats

It seems odd that Damage Control is getting a show first when Nextwave already has a theme song:

when I read this book in school, I did not understand why people thought it was a dystopia. Short workweek, free housing, free healthcare, all education/childcare outsourced to a team of professionals literally born/decanted/genetically engineered to do it (and everyone else getting the same job they were…

Hannibal - it has been mentioned already in this thread, and i think it is worth repeating.

It seems like this conflates a minimalist look/aesthetic (uncluttered/clear with a few multipurpose/useful items neatly stored or displayed) with minimalist living (no clue what that is, but other commenters have some ideas) and minimalist shopping (buy what you will need/use, don’t be wasteful).
