I thought this was about CPKC for a second. But they are very familiar with the definition of North America.

I love that Mary Shelley's masterpiece is being recreated closer than ever to her original vision by one of the most compelling directors in cinema at the same moment that Percy Shelley's masterpiece is being spontaneously reimagined as every shitpost meme on the internet.

If you need to explain to an idiot why Tolkien would have despised these goons, I have already grabbed a picture of the relevant passage (and I doubt I was the first):

INTERVIEW OF

11 Q. So how did you get yourself started into submersible
12 operations?
13
A.
Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic.
When I
14
set down the path to make that film, the first thing that I did
15
was arrange to be introduced to the head of the submersible
16
program at the P.P. Shirshov Institute in Moscow, a guy named
17|
Professor
I. I did that through a mutual friend
18
of ours, a guy named
, who is one of the preeminent
underwater cinematographers in the world. And had been on a
20
submersible expedition out to Titanic the previous year with the
21
Russians. And that was organized by a Canadian company that was
22 doing an IMAX film which was released under the title Titanica.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

A job ads page that has a cookie banner explaining there is a single cookie, and it's not shared and has a picture of Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, giving a double-thumbs-up. The content of the page looks like a window open on top of a computer desktop that has icons on it for home, product, demos, company handbook, etc. The icons are partially obscured, but still readable. The art is cartoony and pictures of the team are shown on different bright-colored backgrounds.

I love everything about the vibes of this page.
1) Clear and hilarious cookie banner
2) Cheeky skeumorphism to make the site look like a desktop
3) Human-sounding writing and expansive, encouraging job descriptions
