Fuck EA.
- Comment on [Même] Which movie was this for you? 2 weeks ago:
I always dissolve into laughter at the ‘going into town for supplies’ scene. It’s just perfect.

That’s awesome! Glad you found yourself. Not everyone does.

Strange Days is a classic?
I thought of it as a bit too clunky in its execution. But I’ll admit Juliette Lewis has always been a distractingly terrible actor in my eyes. And she can’t sing either.
I will admit it’s good enough to deserve a better reception than it’s theatrical release though.

I would never trust anything Kennedy said.
- Comment on Why am I seeing "plan your voting day strategy" so often? 1 month ago:
We don’t have these issues here in Minnesota. Plenty of polling places, short lines.
Here in Duluth I live right across the street from the church that is a polling station. Never taken me more than ten minutes including the walk there and back.

- Comment on Row erupts over Farage constituency surgeries after he told LBC the public ‘will flow through door with knives' 2 months ago:
Yup, thank you again. I’d gathered from the article that it was likely a sort of political consultation but even looking in a dictionary didn’t exactly clear it up.

Thank you!

I’m a dumb American who has never seen the word surgeries used in this context. Can someone explain?
- Comment on Do deaf people play media with sound on? 2 months ago:
He was an asshole too. But it is something easier to forget without the audible cue.
- Comment on Do deaf people play media with sound on? 2 months ago:
I lived with a deaf man for a few months and one thing I noticed is he would often forget to turn off the water in the kitchen.
He didn’t watch TV at all and was not at all respectful when someone was watching or listening to something. Just constant interruptions.
- Comment on If the obscenely wealthy benefit most from having Republicans in power; and collectively they have disproportionate control over the economy; wouldn't they use that power to sabotage Democrats? 2 months ago:
I’m 50 and I hate that piece of shit.
- Comment on Andrew Greenberg, co-creator of the classic RPG Wizardry, has passed away 2 months ago:
My first CRPG, only behind D&D.
My dad ran a campaign for our family when I was seven or so. Original D&D, not even advanced. It didn’t last terribly long but left a lifelong impression.
- Comment on Steam Suffers Major DDoS Attack During Launch of “Black Myth: Wukong” 2 months ago:
Probably Epic. It’s one of the times Steam is at peak usage and sabotaging a big Steam launch would ‘work well’ for them.
Of course trying to sabotage and failing makes Steam look better, which is why Epic continues to flounder.
- Comment on Megalopolis | Official Trailer 2 months ago:
It’s really not a good sign when Coppola spends a third of the trailer harping on his own hits and how critics at the time didn’t appreciate them and uses it as a callback.
Feels a little bit like Stephen King writing himself into The Dark Tower.
- Comment on [Discussion] What do you think about "Knives out" movies? 2 months ago:
I can’t get over them still calling them Knives Out mysteries. It really seems like a terrible misstep.
They were fun movies but not compelling enough mysteries.

Iron Man: Armorer Artificer, as others said

Thor: Pact of the Blade (Hammer) Warlock

Of his movies, I’ve only seen I Heart Huckabees, and after reading about his antics during the filming, fuck that guy.

That’s not the typical application of the poophole loophole, but I approve of it.
- Comment on Arizona Will Vote on Abortion in November: Could That Give Democrats an Edge? 3 months ago:
Abortion is on the ballot everywhere, and I’d be amazed if that doesn’t motivate a ton of non-political people.
Vote, everyone, while ya still can!

I’ll look for it!
I have heard of it but never seen it.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
You have no idea how happy and relieved I was when I saw the term “brain shocks”.
I wasn’t insane, I wasn’t the only one, and it’s a normal thing.
Now what’s really weird is that I had them at a young age when I don’t think I was on any medication. Certainly in the days before Prozac and the like. And I can’t recall when they stopped.

Ge was one sexy cat.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
When I had them (on wellbutrin) they weren’t withdrawal symptoms and could happen at almost any time of day.
It’d present when I’d get up or turn my head. I’d feel/hear a high pitched zing sound and my vision would stutter a little. Very disconcerting, especially when driving, carrying heavy items, or using sharp objects.
Went away when I switched meds.

- Comment on Nominate a Film for Fedi Film Club - "Fringe Theater"! (August) 3 months ago:
Most movies I’d think to suggest are fairly fringe ones. I’d assume people have heard of the others.
The Wicker Man (the 1973 version) is another great one made less fringe by the Nic Cage remake. Go in blind on that one if you can.

Meet the Feebles (wikipedia
Released in 1989, this is an early-ish Peter Jackson movie (yes, the LOTR guy).
It’s a lurid and disturbing backstage comedy of a troupe similar to The Muppet Show.
I watched it with one friend in the mid 90s who, when it ended, stood, turned to me, and said “It is possible to go too far” before leaving the room.

I just wanted an excuse to pitch my M&M commercial.
But I agree they didn’t stick the landing at all.
