@WillSloanEsq much to think about.. quite subtle!

There are Southland Tales everywhere for those with eyes to see

@kenklippenstein he hates pronouns so much he doesn’t use them in his writing

CEO of Daily Wire (Ben Shapiro’s company) just resigned

before i deactivate, i wanna clarify i didn't know my private life would be revealed like this. i trusted my moots and my friends but it turns out i’m getting exposed. i’m leaving because you all don't seem to understand that grogu is like a son to me and I will not tolerate any slander on his behalf.

@slandrroid @SweatieAngle they forgot the goldfish

I will NOT drink water from a bag. (expression of stony resolve softening, warm smile spreading across face) Ah what the hell. Pass me a bag, brother

@exQUIZitely nearly every one of those games is a masterpiece

Am I the only one wondering about this? One of the biggest mysteries to me will always be how a giant like LucasArts - with such a successful track record in the adventure game genre - never made a Star Wars-based adventure game. It feels like one of the lowest-hanging fruits ever: a match made in heaven. They held the rights to one of the biggest movie franchises in history while being one of the most respected and powerful studios in gaming, yet no proper Star Wars-themed adventure was ever made. (I don’t count Star Wars: Yoda Stories as a full-fledged game.) LucasArts Adventure Games through the years: Labyrinth (1986) Maniac Mansion (1987) Zak McKracken (1988) Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) Loom (1990) The Secret of Monkey Island (1990) Monkey Island 2 (1991) Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (1992) Day of the Tentacle (1993) Sam & Max Hit the Road (1993) Full Throttle (1995) The Dig (1995) The Curse of Monkey Island (1997) Grim Fandango (1998) Escape from Monkey Island (2000)

@CFEnriquez @MikeThornWrites well also he was a character in the film (under a different name), that could have something to do with it

@MikeThornWrites Ah yes, Peter Bogdanovich hated this movie because of his feeling of ownership over Dorothy Stratten

Star 80 (Bob Fosse, 1983)

@HydroFoundry @humansofny how many homeless people have you met and talked to, period

@humansofny Never met a long term homeless person where drug/alcohol abuse is not the primary driver, assuming they are not schizophrenic. I would hazard a guess it is no different here. It is a sad reality.

Every system starts to fail.

@nayfun_evans it’s been a long long time but i think someone asked me to make some stuff for that so i had the beta version, but i have no memory of whether i finished anything, or if i sent it back, or if it was used (i doubt it)

Drove from LA to Seattle with one goal - stay off major freeways. Best trip of my life

@eddiejiao_obj and almost all roofs are sloped, the deflection is due to having no overhangs not the slope

@eddiejiao_obj okay that’s not Condominium One

learning about sea ranch architecture on Flipbook

@johnvvariety Pobody’s Nerfect!

There is something that makes me irrationally angry about spoonerism band titles. Com Truise, Peak Twins, Buck Cherry. Cut that shit out man. That's for posting and newspaper comics. You make music. You gotta be called Sex Negative

@samlymatters youtu.be/_hIAQrdqWB8?si…

Taught me what standup comedy and girls gone wild was

@GoodWillsmith their percussion was like things exploding

ppl still do this when i play "Escapade" at the bar at 3AM. snare thick & loud enough to kill a horse. Jam & Lewis forever

@PresidentToguro spiritually Shaun King

White guy wearing this hat is about to pull you aside and tell you about that REAL HIP HOP

@mweinbach @edzitron it’s ‘too expensive’ and it’s still heavily subsidized.. fake business model, fake business

@edzitron In all fairness, nearly all of these were Claude based platforms or agents and anthropics token discounts are substantially lower than others Anthropic is too expensive so budgets make sense

it is going to be very difficult to get the toothpaste back in the tube on this one

@LAMaterial__ don’t promote paywalled articles

Why are L.A. restaurants so freaking loud? A screaming martini order at a packed Los Feliz hotspot sent writer and humorist Dave Schilling down a surprisingly revealing rabbit hole. lamaterial.com/p/why-are-l-a-…

@YoungRakhmetov @facetedcarapace his landscapes are the star to me, some of my favorite paintings

@facetedcarapace Vallotton is one of the best to ever do it. His woodcuts are fantastic.

The guy who painted this truly and deeply loved butts in a profound way and I feel connected to him across history. That's the power of art.

@asianmomriot @facetedcarapace you should check out his landscapes, he was a genius

@facetedcarapace I saw original post and looked up Félix Vallotton. He certainly liked painting naked women as we are ❤️

@Criterion top 5 movie of all time
