my eyesight's not good enough to make out the yellow against the white background

@ the blank check episode of "A Few Good Men"

look something about military science made into fiction so that I can take it in without my white blood cells attacking it

Merriam-Webster famously too online

the voter they are targeting is a republican voter, and even that structure recalls conservative social relations??

nice!

Neighborhood Watch (2012)

Bush was also famously see no evil hear no evil type in-taker of information

I had...um some issues with Legacy of Ashes--the Weiner book about the CIA--but a continual complaint was From Eisenhower on basically the diminution of the freedom of intelligence services to be able to choose what to tell the president and no the other way around

I'm not sure if this is good or bad but when Seven of Nine absolutely wastes that lady, probably the ugliest moment I think I've ever seen in Trek

I think I enjoyed some of Picard more than any of the newer shows I've seen (so far, I'm only halfway through Strange New Worlds and haven't seen the Holly Hunter (!) one), but it also had many moments where I thought the flubbed an okay setup

I don't really love these movies but Gary Hustwit's design trilogy, and Room 237; can't say I enjoy them but I always think of them when I think of newer essay films

I mean I love love love F for Fake, and am literally nervously awaiting playing it in class today. I also like Chris Marker, I like Grin without a cat.

I feel like the novel of ideas as cinema is the essay film? Maybe not quite.

oh i get it yeah,

but that's like accidental messages section of the library, unconscious yearning after evils section you need a parent's card to get into

i'm a fiction writer so a frikin ton, can i just talk about how i hate Philip Roth

every time a person gets worked up when they think of an hypothetical left wing person not voting they sound like they're saying "there oughta be a law"

when pitching me on grad school in michigan the dean of the college said "while it not might be as big or bustling a city as Houston, he has more breweries per person, in fact it has more breweries in absolute terms than houston."

Has like a James Mason working actor will take anything and be the best thing in your crappy movie kinda vibe but then it turns out ALL his movies are like at least C+

tfw you simply want to hunt your slave caste for sport

I mean...I like The Quiet Man

A still from Virtuoso, Voyager 6.13, in which the doctor (Robert PIcardo) a computer program, finds his penchant for opera appreciated by an entire planet of snobs, who quickly tire of his virtuosity and move on to care about something else. I think it's a pretty good episode actually.

Kinda think this is a great episode, kinda a 2001 reference too with the interminable hotel room

Random thought in my brain: Jedi are French aristos in New Orleans two weeks after Jefferson bought it

I was actually just rereading the Iliad/Odyssey (first translation was Samuel Butler, now I'm reading the Fitzgerald, his transliterations of the names are killing me) and Apollo is a Trojan god, and Poseidon is associated with the Ethiopians

the first one just makes you a terrible person flat out but you needn't have read Sophocles for that

I feel like believing in European superiority paired with any interest in the classics automatically puts you into the rank intellectual dishonesty bucket

I get where they’re coming from. I get that it might not be the best allocation of resources. I get that any benefits would come after I’m long dead. But dude you watched Star Trek too

one thing you get very strongly in Texas politics is people running for local public pool authority will campaign like they're going to personally invade Iraq

Sultans and Kings might kick a trashpicker but what to do of the viziers and radical priests
