Getting Silent Hill vibes, and I can’t describe why.

Similar to representing an obviously guilty client in court.

It’s so much fun becoming an expert on random, shitty movies. Maybe you need to be a certain type; I don’t know.

All I know for sure is that Atlantis was in Iowa.
- Comment on VR controls are the worst 1 day ago:
If you do, I could recommend a spicy but really unconventional twist on it. A lot of shitty movies like this have Wikipedia plot summaries that are lacking, inaccurate in small ways, etc. Watching it for the sake of reviewing and possibly revising that summary is a kind of perverse joy that feels impossible to sell to someone who’s never tried.
For example, I rewrote the summary for Whiteout (2009 film), and it was way more fun than just watching it straight. Noticing every stupid fucking detail and how hard it was to actually turn the bullshit plot into a coherent summary was enriching in a way that’s hard to describe.

AROO, BROTHER, GET A MF’IN HOG IN THERE. CRANK THAT MF’ER ANY TIME A BROTHER STARTS THINKING UR FEMININE.
- Comment on What are examples of anachronisms you've seen from movies depicting historical settings? 3 days ago:
The way I analogize to 1800s abolitionism in the US is to ask people how society feels about veganism today. Not as a strict moral equivalence but for the level of ambivalence, mockery, and outright disdain toward freeing a group society broadly considers chattel.

Baking is just DIY organic chemistry.

$19 right now. It says “7 billions dollars”, which tells me it’s a type of fake currency called billions dollars.

Not true (yet). Could be later, but for now, there’s no crime for circumvention.

- Comment on Flock said they were only using the cameras for license plates. Cat is out of the bag now. 1 week ago:
I think the cameras just ate something that didn’t agree with them.

“That outfit really shows off your _____!”
I read this as censorship bleep and not as a “fill-in-the-blank”, and I’m in knots laughing.
- Comment on How would I go about turning this into a power-generating wind turbine. 1 week ago:
N… No? The wind applies a torque to the wind turbine that gets converted into angular momentum. The angular momentum drives a generator that produces electricity. The obvious point I was making was that the electricity produced doesn’t rely just on ω but also the moment of inertia I.
I feel like I’m being gaslit right now. Like: “Momentum doesn’t really matter in assessing how deadly a collision with this car would be. I feel like that’s expected because we have few details about the car itself.” ???
- Comment on How would I go about turning this into a power-generating wind turbine. 1 week ago:
Agreed. The “impressive RPM” mentioned in the OP won’t matter, because it’s about angular momentum, not specifically angular frequency. You would certainly be putting in more energy than you’d conceivably get out. I’m not confident it couldn’t work with a bike dynamo, but at best that would be a “fun learning experience in your garage” project.
- Comment on law enforcement partners 1 week ago:
I don’t know if/how you’ve never seen wind catch a shopping cart, but it can hurtle those fucking things. Mercifully it tends to me worst with the plastic ones because there’s more surface area, but I’ve seen one of those smack a car head-on at like 25 kph on flat terrain.
You can go look up videos of even pretty modest winds gently pushing metal shopping carts around; they look like they’re possessed.
Even on flat lots on windless days, you’re not sticking it to the man; you’re just being a jackass making someone’s already insufferable retail job even less sufferable over 10 seconds of returning a cart.

“It’s a slippery slope to stop pissing in the parking lot. Once they get you pissing in the toilet, then they will expect you to just hold it in.”
It’s not a slippery slope; you’re just pretending it is because you’re a lazy, selfish, obnoxious loser.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
This kind of bad-faith argument is proof positive for the conjecture that, if left unmoderated, every community on an English-speaking social media website will eventually be consumed by US politics.
This clearly isn’t a science meme in the same way a “breathes in boi” meme isn’t about the fluid dynamics of air.
- Comment on I have no idea what range eggs are but they were free so I walked out of the store with them. 1 week ago:
The range is the walls of the grocery store. After that, you have to pay.
