Max is such a handsome boy!

Sounds like the perfect excuse for a rewatch!

“Dade? What are you doing?”

Edit: the prompt was for “I’m… taking over a tv station."

C’mon people let’s start a Hackers quote marathon for crying out loud!

This post is pure unfiltered 100% awesome! I find I’m frequently having anxiety attacks these days because of… <gestures at everything>, but reading this massive in-depth writeup, just letting me soak in a hobby I love but don’t have much time for as I’d like, has relaxed me more than anything has in months. Thank you so much! 🙏 I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for these in the future!

They Live (1988).

It’s rad!

It is infuriating to me how often people start explaining the rules without explaining what the actual goals are first. Like, what are we even doing here, start with that, m’kay?

It reminded me, very randomly, of quote from a book about urban design and how architectural ideas are introduced and accepted by the public… or not.

From this the “principle of the second man” can be formulated: it is the second man who determines whether the creation of the first man will be carried forward or destroyed…

It was a golden chance and a room full of cowards let it slip.

The book is Design of Cities by Edmund Bacon for anyone interested.

‘Fanta Menace’!!! I’m in fucking tears, how have I never heard this before!? 🤣🤣🤣

Same here! This morning’s hangover, as just one example, 100% attributable to Covid! Definitely not the decision to have highballs #5-8 last night.

Oh shit… do I have ADHD?

Game devs been reading Use of Weapons, I guess.

I just spun up Wallabag on my server the other day to replace Omnivore. Im going to take a look at this, but does anyone have experience or thoughts on how this compares? I’m not so deep into it yet that I couldn’t switch to Linkwarden if it’s better.

My main uses would be archiving articles and highlighting passages.

Would it please you to know that Mark Hamil was a guest on an episode of the Muppet Show?

…you twit!!

I remember having this conversation with my mom when I was young and saying something like, “Well that’s great then, this is an easy win. Scientists should be able to examine them and confirm the change and then we know what the Bible is telling us is true,” and she replied that that’s not how faith works. And I was dumbfounded and like, “But… it would be so easy…”

And that lesson of how willfully choosing ignorance is somehow something to be valued was a key turning point in my waking up to the bullshit of religion. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Right? A Real Genius quote in the wild just made my day!

It’s a reference to an X-Files episode, one of the few where they swapped out the ‘Trust No One’ text in the opening credits.

BUT… I like the way you think!

Deceive. Inveigle. Obfuscate.

(That’s a deep cut, wonder if anyone got it.)

Yeah I’m glad it’s not a vital part of the experience but don’t mind that it’s there for people who like it. Kind of like card games in real life. :)

I do not understand this at all… but I respect it.
