I write (short stories, essays, and screenplays), organize events (occasionally), and I work in e-discovery.
@kinolorber.com does something unique if an item is out of stock. They hold the entire order until the item is available or OOP and they honor the sale prices.

Because Kino kept the sale prices, I decided to get the rest of the order.

Today's word is:

Vaffanculo

(vulgar, slang) fuck you, fuck off, go fuck yourself; get lost, up yours; shove it up your ass.

Pluribus is a very different kind of nightmare future. And it's funny.

Tired of dystopias but this is (so far) very good.

If you're not an Apple subscriber, wait for the whole season to drop, get a trial sub, and binge it.

The rest of this thread might have spoilery memes.

If you've already watched the first two Pluribus episodes, I had a lot of thoughts on all the things Vince Gilligan, Rhea Seehorn and company are doing so well right from the start:

Angus King can GTFO

I had an Oregon Trail card during the Great Recession. You get just enough money and can't buy whatever you want

Had to feed two adults (no kids):
-Made alot of ramen and chile mac
-Meat was usually hot dogs or lunch meat
-Only bought generic brands or items on sale

I lost my job, my dad was deported, and I can't afford my health care insurance. But at least I know that now HBO isn't going to do another Lena Dunham series.

LA Confidential is one of the best films from a year crowded with great movies.

My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of L.A. CONFIDENTIAL boxd.it/bF2wut

Power. Greed. Corruption. This reconstruction of 1950s Los Angeles is as seedy as it is gorgeous.

Flawed protagonists & moral ambiguity highlight twisty noir classic. Tough, gritty, & uncompromising...who is victim & who is villain?

There are many ways that Gremlins 3 could go wrong, but Chris Columbus returning is a good sign.

It won't be the same without Joe Dante.

Composer John Barry, BOTD in 1933 (d. 2011), is best known as the man behind the sound of 007.
Barry scored 11 James Bond films, yet it was his non-Bond work that earned him 5 Oscars and numerous other accolades during his long career as a leading film composer.

Tonight's movie is one of the best action movies ever made.

That three minute oner shootout scene is still hard to top.
