A very old tree 🌳 comic book, literature and kpop fan. 18+ pls bc I'm very old.
I've been playing Dispatch, and I really like it, but also I keep getting "You did better than 1% of players!" at the end of the episodes and that cracks me up.

Sometimes I put kids on group projects in new combinations and then I discover that they've been friends since first grade, they just don't hang out at school 🤷♀️

Cheery was aware that Commander Vimes didn't like the phrase 'The innocent have nothing to fear', believing the innocent had everything to fear, mostly from the guilty but in the longer term even more from those who say things like 'The innocent have nothing to fear'.

“Beating people up in little rooms…he knew where that led. And if you did it for a good reason, you’d do it for a bad one. You couldn’t say ‘We’re the good guys’ and do bad-guy things.”

Best picture watch opinions:
Sinners: amazing
One battle: funny but too long
Sentimental Value: film-maker movie tm
I'll eventually watch Frankenstein, train dreams and hamnet, but not sure I'll be able to watch the rest. Oh and I'll watch the short films I can find ofc!

Second movie: 28 years later: the Bone Temple which was also wonderful but in largely an entirely different way from Song Sung Blue. Though I mean the musical number in Bone Temple is a delight frankly. Did not see a gift, but trust me: a delight!

Song Sung Blue is wonderful -- I assume this is basically Hugh Jackman's dream role -- but it also made me cry because I'm a marshmallow

Deep sigh. Everything else aside, this is not going to get the audience cheering for the very good US winter Olympians 🥲

The city of Florence revoked Dante’s death sentence in... er, 2008, which is funny in itself, but I would argue even more so for the fact that “The motion to rehabilitate Dante was passed by 19 votes to 5”. Presumably, those five people thought it was a bit too soon to be sure
Dante's infernal crimes forgiven - Telegraph
After 700 years, Dante Alighieri, Italy's most famous poet, will have his
criminal record scrubbed clean.

I'm watching Sentimental Value and I'm getting so much additional information just from which language they speak -- they're switching between at least four -- I can't imagine watching this film as a non-scandi. But clearly many have!
