I wish we could collect the brains of people who wait for a play to start to begin digging through the several crinkly bags of snacks they brought. Not to study, just that way they'll die.

Incredible rollercoaster of smells on the coach this morning.
Soapy air freshener florals, like that shitty gel you put in bathroom.
Bacon sandwich (hot)
Menthol/herbal candy
'dryer' smell from onboard AC.
I swear to fucking god if someone starts peeling an orange I'm going sicko mode

It is my birthday soon, and I so rarely find popsci books specifically engineered to my niche interests.

For those who, like me, love speculative and alien evolution, there's a remarkable new book out, "Wildlife on the Planet Furaha" by Gert van Dijk. www.crowood.com/book/wildlif...

On the planet Furaha, Gert van Dijk creates a biosphere on a new world along with its solar system. Evolution on Furaha found solutions to life’s problems that remained unused on Earth. There are in-d...

The movie I had a dream about last week where a 70's lesbian cop duo (not a couple) have to solve a crime centered around a women's ballroom disco competition. It was called Ladies Night, obviously.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

I love Dragon Prince not because it's beautful and disability/gender/sexuality inclusive (it is), but becasue it flip-flops between pre-teen humour and horrifically traumatic drama CONSTANTLY. 'Haha [fart joke]!' 15min later: 'I have sawn off my leg and resurrected my dead father against his will'

Takes a lot of balls for a straight cis man to make incompetent husband jokes in front of a room of environmental science PhD students, most of which are women and the rest men in rainbow lanyards. Read the room, fella.

I love my attic room and my housemates but unfortunately this is where all the smells from the kitchen tend to accumulate, and I really want to be able to choose whether or not to breath garlic or chicken vapours for three hours. Would it kill someone to bake cookies for once?

AI generated politcal images are the aesthetics of new facism and I REALLY WISH people on the left would not use it, however noble they think it is to show me Farage in a variety of incriminating hats.

Nothing like running out of meds to remind you that you really do need them. I didn't take my propranolol the last two days out of a desire to 'ration' them for 'when I need them', and I'm vibrating like a fucking rural bus after a single cup of coffee. Tremor sucks. #invisibledisability

Invisible Man is like this, everything is basically just japes and spooks, the movie is light-hearted and camp - then he sabotages a bridge and murders an entire train full of people and it gets VERY sombre.
i like the concept of a small-time villain who’s like, a silly theatrical halloween type villain, who then knowingly does something truly unbelievably evil and irrevocably changes the tone of the story

It seems clear from the language here that the 'Will of the people' as distinct from the constitution means violent insurrection and a hostile coup of the instruments of state.
it blows my mind that anyone is still pretending like trump is anything but a dictator, here is steve bannon talking about how they, in clear and certain terms, intends to install trump as president in 2028
