A mile rule
  • They claim the be for all of those things, but then they line up behind whatever fascist the Republican party puts in front of them, when push comes to shove.

    They're full of shit.

  • A mile rule
  • Some of them are so stupid that they never even "got theirs." But they see people who look different than them getting things that they didn't get, and they can't abide that...

  • I have approximate knowledge of many rules
  • Careful. Tons of grifters and magical thinkers claim that their pseudoscientific nonsense is backed by quantum mechanics for that very reason (hardly anybody on the planet understands it). It's not.

    So when someone says, "the philosophical side" when referring to quantum mechanics, forgive me if my woo-radar goes off...

  • FDA Bans Rule Dye 3
  • For some reason the way the breading on these things looks weirds me out. They look like little newborn rodents or something... Makes me think of the "Poplers" episode of Futurama.

  • Film director David Lynch dies at 78, family says
  • I don't recall having an issue with how they made "the voice" sound. Again, not what I was referencing though.

    I was specifically just talking about changing "the weirding way" from a form of martial arts into yelling someone's name through a megaphone to kill other people. Just made shit up out of whole cloth for no apparent reason. And it was fucking corny.

    All that being said, I'm still glad Jodorowsky was not able to release his abomination that was for some reason titled "Dune," despite bearing no resemblance to the source material.

    Could have made a cool film, but it wouldn't have been "Dune." Dude hadn't even read the novel, and was proud of it.

  • Is marijuana-induced psychosis a real thing or is it just more reefer madness scaremongering?
  • I agree that cannabis users are generally pretty defensive about their habit, but I imagine it comes from about a century of stigma and demonization. When you grow up hearing nothing but disinformation about the thing, you are naturally going to become incredulous of any new claims.

    No excuse, just a possible explanation.

  • Film director David Lynch dies at 78, family says
  • Yeah, Denis had the right idea splitting the book onto two films. There's just too much there to squeeze into one...

    I do still love the way he added the blue to the Fremen's eyes, there is something very otherworldly about it.

    Also, Alia saying "My brother is coming" is such a dope moment.

  • The Supreme Court seems eager to curb First Amendment protections for porn
  • Coincidentally, I just rewatched this the other night (for like the thousandth time). I feel like it gets more and more poignant (and TLJ's acting impresses me more) as I get older...

    And it does kind of apply here. In the film, Jones' character is just at a loss as to "who the hell these people are" after witnessing their apparently nihilistic and seemingly random murder spree.

    I feel that in my bones now. Who the fuck are these psychopaths?
