's story about seeing "Dune: Part 2" at a 3:15 a.m. Imax screening:
Kids today wonder how our parents were able to survive with one paycheck. This is exactly how it was done. See the size of this house. This was normal when I was growing up. No 5 bedroom homes with 5 baths. Living and buying within your means. Starter homes.

[Encountering an actual sea serpent, the stuff of nightmares, screaming, throwing up] these were abundant until about 70 mil years ago lol. Calm down.
I love how no one in The Witch is competent at anything. The dad can't shoot a gun, Caleb can't even whistle. Useless city folk try to homestead and they all end up dead.
@PetreRaleigh
Almost unspoken of on here is that even feeling that awkward about watching a brief sex scene with your parents is a sign of being a certain age
I don't think the centrists defending Biden's actions are aware of just how irrational the political establishment has become on this issue. What's happening is not par for the course.
In August 1982, when Israel massacred 300 Lebanese civilians in saturation bombing of Beirut, President Ronald Reagan literally ordered the Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin to halt the massacre.
Contrast Reagan's humanity with the senile old pro-genocide filth Joe Biden.

It doesn't pass the smell test. They likely had a different way of *conceptualizing* interiority, and thus different ways of representing it in literature, but that's not the same as not having it.
Mast: I think when we look at this, as a whole, I would encourage the other side to not so lightly throw around the idea of innocent Palestinian civilians. I don't think we would so lightly throw around the term innocent Nazi civilians

Yeah everything I've heard about Mitski concerts fits with this. It's not natural enthusiasm, it's an obnoxious performance of what you think an enthusiastic person is like.
People on here will read a 200-page book from an academic press called "Goofing Off: A History of Fooling Around" and tell you with a straight face that Europeans invented playing games in the 18th Century.
This doesn’t sound legal...
One shouldn’t be forced against their will to be vaccinated.
The vaccination is there for those who want it, and are in need of it due to medical vulnerabilities.
In a more civilized age, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" would have been followed by an iterative series of "My Big Fat [Ethnicity] Wedding" movies, with many of the same cast appearing in different roles.
@MetaReflexive
Boring answer but I think Ico and Shadow of the Colossus. Not only because I like them but I think that's the type of game you'd have in there if we started treating games that way.

This kind of thing never makes any sense. What about the performance is good that excludes scene partners (including other indigenous actors!), dialogue, direction, etc...do you just really like her facial expressions?
I'll be honest I've basically never experienced this problem in a store. Is your afternoon ruined because a kid got the zoomies in the freezer aisle? It's not a movie theater, we're all just getting our stuff and checking out.
Stray observation: As Hollywood rediscovers the value of stardom, it is going to quickly become apparent that there are no longer enough good-but-not-great directors to go around.
Romans in the 2nd century: If you think about it, Christianity is like a religion, with its own rituals and pieties, filling the void that a lack of belief in the gods leaves in many people's lives.
A Sumatran orangutan in Indonesia has self-medicated using a paste made from plants to heal a large wound on his cheek, say scientists.
It is the first time a creature in the wild has been recorded treating an injury with a medicinal plant.

We're glad to temporarily host this statue of Homeless Jesus to raise awareness of homelessness in Cleveland and remind us that all people are created in the image of God.
George Santos pretended to be a gay Afro-Latino Ukrainian Brazilian Catholic Jew whose mother died on 9/11, whose ancestors survived the Holocaust, whose employees died in the Pulse club mass shooting, and whose net worth rose by millions overnight.
Am I missing anything?
“As a child who was obsessed with Polly Pocket, this is a real dream come true and I can’t wait to bring these tiny toys to the big screen,” says Collins.
The Supreme Court shouldn't have the power it does, but until it's overhauled, the justices should be forced into a quasi-monastic existence: no friends, no vacations, living together in one building.
I don't think a medieval peasant would be that shocked by your guitar solo or whatever. She sees eucharistic miracles and apparitions and dragons and shit all the time. Half her children were replaced by changelings.
It makes sense why it isn't now but "extremely cheap, salty and greasy food" was the selling point of fast food for decades, no need to pretend people were just imagining that.
