I visited Iceland a long time ago, and I *think* the weird d is just pronounced as a voiceless "th," as in thing. So maybe "Norther og Neether" isn't too far off. Also, who cares if it's wrong, because it's kind of fun to say.

She was the one who lived. They went through two bailiffs before her.

Hey, a little respect for Selma Diamond, may she rest in peace. She was a cool lady.

I so love the blocked user feature. I have no idea what this conversation is about, but I can rest easy knowing that I'm better off not knowing.

Ha ha! Hello Newman has feelings!

Given how prevalent this disgusting misogynistic trope is, you'd think I'd be given more credit for my enlightened stance of preferring the minds of 90-year-old women in hot children's bodies. But noooo!

Watch it anyway. It's not like the movie hinges on any sort of big plot reveal. It's so fucking good, and I hope at some point we can move past the fact that the lead actor is a shitbag. It's not really a provocative or insightful point anymore.

Me too. Not sure I will keep going, but probably will stick out at least one more episode. It was both incredibly depressing and also a little bit on-the-nose. But I am curious where they take the premise.

You do know, because in the shitty trailer they are talked into going in the dive over tequila shots. "Best! Vacation! Ever!" 47 meters is really, really deep.

Whales were created in 1957? Who knew?

Jesus Christ shut the fuck up you fucking troll. You are literally the worst thing on the internet right now.

Can someone fill me in on Bette Davis' radical policies? Was she advocating for men to be allowed to go hatless on weekends? Equal rights for Jews? What, tell me, WHAT?!

Bush 43 made me look back fondly at Bush 41. Now Trump has made me reconsider Bush 43. It really makes you wonder who the Republicans will nominate next. I could insert a joke here, but honestly I don't want to give them any ideas.

I…actually thought it looked pretty good?

Oh man, I didn't realize this was a thing you could do. You just made my week!

The description of him in the review as "woodworking in isolation and looking people in the eye" is basically a roundabout way of saying: obvious serial killer.

The "battery" explanation for the human farms is just so egregiously awful that it's best to just block it out of your mind and move on. It's especially annoying because a significantly less silly hand-waving explanation is just sitting there: the machines are using human brains as parallel processors in a massive

Colatura is great. Punches up veggies as well.

I had tickets to the show she recently cancelled in Chicago. Bummed, although I haven't been able to get quite as into her newest album…

To reiterate, I am not criticizing the movie, which is fun and handles its sci-fi premise mostly intelligently (the battery thing is just fucking awful, but also not really central). I am criticizing the notion that it is some sort of philosophical masterwork. The notion of reality as mental construct and thought
