What is the lifespan of software? What if you make software that's silly and full of whimsy? Will people remember it? Anyway, here's a video someone recently posted of “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan performed through the composer feature in Mario Paint, a game released on Super Nintendo in 1992
Truly the only fault I hold against the film adaptation is that I wish Eowyn was more of a muscle mommy. She was the freaking shieldmaiden of Rohan. She would've trained with the boys. Her lines and arc are great but I would've liked to see her bully orcs and wield a greatsword.

You know, when they go out to track Pippin and Merry, Legolas has a lovely fishtail braid. In my head cannon, Gimli is the one with braiding skills. I'm not accepting alternate ideas at this time

Ok I'm watching Sister Act and wow this script is so tight. No cruft. Just a strong masterclass on writing clear motivation and character arc. I'm not sure comedies get this attention as much as they should today, which I realize makes me sound so boomer SORRY

I know everyone thinks Aragorn's hottest moment is when he bursts through that door but for me it's when he agrees that Arwen should take Frodo on her own because she's a much faster rider than him

I don't mean to completely derail your night but here's the pitch:
Ratatouille 2 (Rata2ille)
Monsieur Fumet, the restaurant's landlord, raised the rent. Remy goes back under the chef's hat with Linguine to enter Chef Superbe, France's biggest cooking reality show to win the $500,000 prize

I was zoning out on a bench, trying to figure out how to respond to an email that was very frustrating, when an autumn leaf drifted right into my open hand. Just want to thank whoever is running my sim game for giving me that little reminder that I'm alive 🍂

You ever experience an irrational fear that's so on brand you have to laugh? Anyway, last night I accidentally fell asleep with my ear buds in and when I woke up, one had fallen out of my ear and I was terrified I had swallowed it in my sleep

It's kind of wild how hard you can work to just feel slightly better than awful about yourself? They need to invent a new type of brain that doesn't brain

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"
guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

Ads from just 30 sec of scrolling. I've never searched for GLP-1 meds or clicked on an ad for but Instagram knows I'm a woman of a certain age. I do follow many strength training accounts so maybe it's making an assumption based on that. idk I just hope these are safe

I know we don't have a fully functioning FDA but the amount of ads I get from weird little start ups named things like Wisp or BloomHealth pushing GLP-1 pills they're sourcing from who knows where is kind of concerning
