It’s cool that this generation gets to find out the answer to “what would you have done when we started interning the Japanese?” and “what would you have done when we invaded Vietnam?” and “what would you have done in Watergate?” all at the same time.
Much Ado is the one I run back the most. Lear probably my fav.
Echoing that the alec guiness version captures the whole of it. The movie is cool when you’ve read the book but is incomprehensible if not
Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.
"of course people should have known, he didn't hide any of it!" is a valid complaint but the fact of the matter is that a lot of people self-evidently did not understand what they were voting for and they don't like it
One of the greatest bollard walks in history.

I listened to several of these and across all of them two things are standard- the simpering nature of these calls which are always "oh I dont know theyre nice I'm sure why don't you lock them in a cage just in case" & how ENRAGED they get when they simply have their own words repeated at them
It’s giving middle passage
This seems very on point for all the 70s screwball comedies. No one learns anything in What’s Up Doc, the characters just play out their character getting in and out of trouble
Yoon Suk-yeol has been sentenced to life imprisonment.
Wow.
I watched it last year after Ayo Edebiri raved about it in the Criterion Closet. One of a kind movie. www.criterion.com/shop/collect...
watched TO SLEEP WITH ANGER yesterday and i know i'm late on this but what a picture. bona fide masterpiece of american filmmaking.
Raw numbers are that ICE arrested 340,000 people last year who have no violent criminal record.
Macbeth: SHIT
A musician playing a guitar in sugarcane that is somehow in the middle of a football field
First shot: sugarcane
The backbone of Puerto Rico's agricultural economy since colonial times
Still used to make rum of course!
Have you ever seen the BBC miniseries with Alec Guinness as Smiley? It’s superb
I never realized that "wherefore" is of a pair with "therefore" kinda cute. "Where" and "there" with a suffix become "why" and "thus"
who called it Heated Rivalry and not Fuck Ice
At Truss I saw that it was easier to standardize on tech for our infra than for the app stack on various different contracts. On the "define tech standards for teams outside of SFDS" side of the job: have y'all been able to ship libraries/tools or just best practices?
turns out when Bezos suggested "democracy dies in darkness" it was a goal, not a slogan
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”
The guy who owns Amazon shutting down the books section of the Washington Post is beyond parody
As an Eagle Scout, let me say this is an opportunity for Scouting America to stop having a partnership with the U.S. Military.
Congrats David! so happy for you
This is the same as my taxonomy (from Nashville). I feel like I rarely see front-patios but my parents have a front porch, a back porch, and a back patio
This is our culture.
Epstein isn't a freak exception, his elite friends aren't exceptions.
He, and they, are a mirror.
That's all.
Even in Elon Musk’s denial of his involvement with Epstein—which directly contradicts the available evidence—the world’s richest man is still claiming he knew all about “pedo island” and didn’t do anything to stop it. Even in their fantasies of innocence they’re still directly enabling child abuse
Quake!
“/pol/ was created after moot met with jeffrey epstein” is maybe the single most cursed true sentence I have ever had the displeasure of writing
