For anyone else who's still confused, Horton Hears a Who! is a book by Dr. Seuss about a speck of dust that's also a tiny planet and some elephants that try to destroy it.

So, kinda like Men in Black.

Just wanted to chime in on how awesome The LEGO Movie is. A few years ago, we had a neighborhood get together where we projected a movie onto my neighbor's garage door for the kids. We setup chairs and blankets, and made popcorn.

We were watching the movie and all the kids were getting tired and people were slowing dispersing. Eventually, my wife asked "should we get going and put the kids to bed?" I said "Are you kidding me?! This movie is awesome!"

So yeah... She ended up taking the kids home and I stayed to watch the end of it.

The Lego Movie is both cosmic and existential horror.

Looks ok to me using Voyager.

Same for Connect. It is HD.

I had to click the HD option in Boost for Android to get a clearer version of the photo. Simply clicking on it gave me a pixelated version.

I never noticed the HD option in Boost, thank you! I always just struggled through the pixels or gave up when it happened. Thank you again!

This ersatz pixelated existence merely shadows the vast, complex and frighteningly real atomic world

Water ship down is fucking crazy because we are the cosmic horror in the story

Spongebob and Finding Nemo

I live a cosmic horror every day. There's AI's spouting small novels worth of information at me, and telling me "just copy-paste this buddy after you are done setting everything up" and I just mentally BSOD before I'm through 1/5 of that.

It's supposed to simplify things for me so I can get started, not teach me to be a nuclear engineer.

They made a musical about it, with some Suess multiverse stuff built in. It was called "Suessical the Musical," and it's definitely nightmare-inducing.

So is journey to the west cosmic horror gradually transitioning into cosmic rivalry?

A story has never needed capitalisation of proper nouns more than this one.
