It’s bonkers like most Hong Kong action flicks, so you have to ignore the unreality and just go with it. Very violent in a cartoonish way, lots of bright red blood and decapitations, etc. The cast is great, though. I enjoyed it, Aletheia fell asleep.

Our SVDP conference put together warmer clothing, backpacks, toiletries for them and helped get bus fare to return to families. One time there was a woman who broke a leg falling from a bunk and was released with no medical assistive devices (no crutches or wheelchair). Jail didn’t care.

Unfortunately this has been standard procedure for years. When we lived in California we were near a jail that contracted with federal immigration enforcement and people scooped up from Oregon to Texas would end up there, dumped on the curb when they were released wearing what they had when arrested

We used to live just up the hill from this library and they always had super cool events, especially considering that they are a tiny library

Checking in on what our former local library is doing back in California, getting some FOMO

Based on my 20 years in California where people vote directly on propositions, the median voter will vote for tax breaks and cool-sounding infrastructure extensions at the same time. New TV and high speed rail.

I am not 100% sure at all that Pete Hegseth even knows what β€œno quarter given” means apart from it being a cool-sounding phrase from action movies. The guy’s brain is cooked on Hollywood cliches.

β€œWe want zero taxes plus cool infrastructure / benefits” has been the average Californian voter’s position since at the 1970s when they passed Prop 13, so I can see why politicians keep returning

The difference between working in an office and working from home is that in the office someone walks in every half hour to ask if you can search how to fix their software problem and at home someone walks in every half hour to ask if you can search how to complete a Wobbly Life mission

Or walk up and stand directly behind you when you are doing things like cooking or folding laundry so you can get a surprise when you step backwards slightly

This box is open for packing. The only thing prohibiting packing stuff in the box is my cat smacking anyone who tries to touch the box. It is open for packing things in should she not do that.

I got my first car when I was 26 and got a beater Dodge Caravan as a swap for designing a couple of websites for a friend’s dad. If you drove it for more than an hour it would abruptly downshift automatically and you would slow to a crawl. I drove it from LA to San Francisco in 45 minute chunks

The first one is pretty much perfect and deserved an Oscar more than ROTK did. The other two are mixed bags and definitely start to show the excessive and messy tendencies that Jackson would indulge in for all of his subsequent films

Mostly his later stuff getting into late 60s - 70s

Can’t go wrong with La Strada, and from what I remember it’s pretty family friendly.

Those kinds of shirts are essential for Midwest summer, I imagine Texas is much worse

Seems like it would be fairly simple, you’d just need to remove the collar and sew on the clerical version. I have sewn collars before and it’s not too hard

Made me wonder if anyone has made denim vestments and after a google I found this. Can we crowdfund buying these for all of the priests on Bluesky www.etsy.com/listing/4387...
