Maybe we should elect more people that have a working class background to actually represent us instead of someone whose career started by founding a boutique winery with a billionaire heir family friend. Just a thought.

Dropped my toast butter side up, I'm a magic man yup

Probably just times I scared myself getting hyped up to hear or see something, haunted basement as a kid, alone at night in an unfamiliar forest, etc

There's really not much left to go back to. All the mods with integrity left when they effectively banned third party apps, top posts are almost entirely image or video posts recycled with time stamps/dates removed, and corporate owners are choking it by preventing organic changes via subreddits dying and being replaced over time because it doesn't get them more ad revenue in the short term like boosting controversial and rage bait topics.

They can see my receipt for 10 bucks

Alt: Mad Max saying "that's bait"

She's a stooge for Musk

We emerge as they fade away

Storing text in binary formats like word docs instead of plain text like latex makes git version control unusable.

I've always wanted one of their 7 or 8 strings with the fanned frets but that price tag is steep

Some of my favorites

Disney's animated Robin Hood - some amazing folk songs, o brother where art thou has a lot of great old timey/folksy songs too

The Third Man - the zither to end all zithers

anything by John Williams or Hans Zimmer for that big epic sound with recurring motifs- star wars, Indiana Jones, interstellar, etc

Baby Driver - lots of variety, the chase sequence with Hocus Pocus by Focus is amazing

The Blues Brothers - not just great blues, tons of soul, motown, etc with a lot of energy

The Guest - parody of '80s action/thriller style movies, soundtrack is lots of electronic & synth, feels a little like a darker version of the Drive soundtrack which is also great

A couple directors that have a very specific sound direction/profiles to them too are Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarantino, and John Carpenter.

Fascists like Musk use words only as weapons, never to convey information. He doesn't care it's not a ponzi scheme, he just wants to scare idiots into making bad decisions he can profit from.

Adding a couple to the international (depending where you're from) list:

The Seventh Seal

The Third Man

Canada is a leading exporter of potash, used in pretty much every fertilizer

The Third Man, a noir tale about a dime store novelist trailing his smuggler friend, the soundtrack is its own character.

For more noir check out the opening scene from Touch of Evil

When a denomination lies about when the apocalypse is coming they can gain more followers than they lose, look at all the offshoot denominations of Adventists/Millerites

That's a neat hopscotch

Abstinence makes the clergy grow fondlers

The LDS setup a child SA hotline years ago to keep clergy from getting caught by the law when guilty of SA. Someone calls it and they say it's covered under attorney-client if it's a LDS attorney or theological confession protections if it's LDS clergy or admin even if the law requires them to report SA to local LEO just like teachers or counselors.

Read books, comics, journalist articles, chess puzzles, crosswords

Probably a little difficult to talk at all with those nose and mouth prosthetics

"Not evil, just disconnected"

Yes, drawing from the old adage 'with great power comes great private jets' or something like that
