How prominent Honey, I Shrunk The Kids (1989) was at the time you first saw Star Wars (1977).

They also have a video that is my favorite way to explain how colorblindness affects me:

My partner got a pair for work when they first came out (her job involves creating social media content). I was impressed by the speakers and it’s the same style of sunglasses that I normally wear daily, so I got a pair for myself. It was so nice to be able to listen to stuff and take calls without carry around headphones or putting them in when the phone rang. I was already uncomfortable with the association with meta, but was able to isolate that aspect at first. As they continued to add features, I’ve started being less comfortable with them. I accidentally left them somewhere a couple months ago and decided not to replace them. It’s such a bummer that all the cool tech is now not just spying on you, but on everyone around you. Fuckin capitalism ruins everything.

As a jew, I also had the same initial reaction to the star of david. Then I realized the bars of the flag are present as the band of the underwear and a line at the bottom of the briefs. I wish there was a gap between the bars and the top/bottom to make this more obvious and more accurate to the flag instead of the symbol of judaism. This being the flag makes sense. If it was just the star, I would agree that it is antisemitic.

Never heard of this before. Google tells me it was only available in the US on Showtime and later the SciFi channel, neither of which I had access to.

That rug really ties the room together.

What a great “mask off” interview. I love hearing about all the subjects they covered without the pretense of selling the show within studio guidelines. Feels much more “VH1 Behind The Music” than “press junket.”

The alternate universe on that show was the horniest thing in TV for decades.

The people living paycheck to paycheck are ones who would make the most impact by striking, but are least able to as they will starve, be evicted, lose utilities/cell/internet if they do.

The people who are making enough money to be comfortable are afraid that if they upset the people above them, they will become the people living paycheck to paycheck.

The independently wealthy and top tier capitalists are the ones that have the most financial freedom to protest, but have the least reason to, are the smallest group, and are mostly fine with how things are (at best) or actively making things worse (most likely).

I’m guessing this is the non-specific way of saying Limbo-like.

I’ve been with my partner for a decade. I want to get married, she doesn’t. She was married for 8 years in her prior relationship. She doesn’t want government involved in our love life and doesn’t like the thought of being a wife or having a husband. Both of those titles come with the stigma of a power dynamic that borders on ownership to her. She tells me the main reason she got married the first time was to change her surname, which she never felt connected to (parents divorced at young age, estranged from father since then).

I assume at some point we’ll be forced to be married due to some legal restriction that would be lifted by such paperwork existing.

This is a joint talk with Dana Trebella and Derek Lieu about this exact subject from their professional perspectives (indie marketing and trailer editor, respectively). They both have multiple talks over the years where they explain different aspects of their day to day work. Taken as a whole, it’s a solid crash course on DIY marketing.

Another talk more focused on finding your messaging: https://www.gdcvault.com/play/1025673/More-Feelings-Fewer-Features-Showcasing

I’m not undercutting her achievements or intelligence. I’m applauding that she had this support. I am stating that this isn’t something that a child could do without some amount of generational wealth.

This snopes article claims she was gifted a Cessna 150 for her tenth birthday.

This says “at the age of 12, she purchased a Zenith CH 601XL kit aircraft of her own.”

I’m not sure how much either of these things cost, but I can tell you that these opportunities do not exist for any 10-12 year olds that I am exposed to.

Somebody with a lot of money had a lot of faith in a teenager.

My initial reaction was “this is a circle on top of a spiral, what does this prove?”

It blows my mind that even when you’re looking for it, you STILL need to use logic to disprove the illusion.

That red circle is in blue the entire time. It never touches either black & white circle that it is between.

They started on the far end and when they got to behind the camera, they realized how many lines they still had to run to that area and the amount of space in the hallway to feed that area didn’t line up with the spec for the spacing in the room. Instead of ripping out what they had done, they just increased the density.

Same thing as when you’re signing your name on a birthday card and the first few letters are huge, but the you’ve gotta shrink the rest to fit before you run out of paper.

I don’t want to see these images, but I want to know the context of them. Is there any article that describes the scenario taking place? I really don’t want to start searching for this.

The worst is when you find out from other people fucking around. I’m looking at you, Stephanie.

Peter Dinklage is starting to get old. Maybe I could take him in a couple more years.

I mean, that kid is a poet. I hope they find a way to channel that.
