Basically, “just zis guy, you know?”. For money I work as a programmer / data analyst at URMC. Degrees in Linguistics. For fun I play too much Zelda and fumble around on bass. Film lover. Urbanist / YIMBY. Kind to cats.
Shout Factory will happily upload their library to any streaming service that will give them even a trickle of revenue. (And I mean that in a positive way.)

The movies came out in theaters 12/19/01, 12/18/02, and 12/17/03 and the extended edition DVDs of each came out about a year later. I think that makes them Christmas-y.

Alas, looking through my phone, neither do I, and he's back to hiding upstairs on a rainy day.

Dang. I posted this last night and should have waited a day.

Despite having watched Curse of Frankenstein (new 4K with 3 different cuts / aspect ratios) two weeks ago, I lost the context for a second and got really confused because Cushing also played The Doctor in two Doctor Who movies and his version there was mostly kooky old man.

My friend Imogen Sara Smith wrote several times about Tatsuya Nakadai's unique qualities, such as here in 2020 at Bright Lights Film Journal. brightlightsfilm.com/japanese-cin...

"Like Hollywood's new postwar men, he offered a multifaceted, ambivalent masculinity far from monolithic wartime ideals."

The Democrats' big idea prior to the election was to create a "Moderate Party" ballot line to offset the "Conservative Party" ballot line all the NY Republicans are also listed on for elections. Looks like it worked great! Its Democratic founder lost by 8 points!
Moderate Party launches in Nassau County to reject extremism
The moderate party is a rejection of political extremism, co-founder Dave Kerpen said, seeking to better represent voters who reside in the middle.

They're not being long here, but very cute and snuggly.

Have a selection of remote controls for your wee one. Sorry, no dogs, just cats, but they are fairly long if they'd be of interest.

Someone fainted/collapsed during a press conference. Most everyone else ran to help. Trump did that and RFK Jr slipped out of the room.

I early voted on Sunday. I understand some people in NYC got special stickers if they early voted on Halloween, but I just got the one they always do.

The fun part is…. they already did this. It’s done.They’re just retroactively asking legal forgiveness. Apparently environmental groups say it’s fine, go ahead and vote yes. But it’s still weird to me.
