Lmao from the Iranian Embassy. Their social media game is crazy.

Forgot the tiny 9 after the 8.

There was a scene in Atlas Shrugged Part I (I think?) where the train is broken down Dagny is stuck and one of the workers hands her his car keys ("it's yours") so she can get to Important Meeting.

She goes and fills it up at the gas station and it's like $1,347 (or something else large & random)

I just spent too long looking for that clip. It would be such delicious irony to post it to MAGAsphere over the next few weeks...

There's an Atlas Shrugged movie? 🤮

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's from 2011, there were three of them. IIRC they were all straight to DVD releases. nothing theatrical.

Looks like you can find them on Bitchute without the slightest hint of irony of a movie about capitalism being pirated and probably monetized on a conservative streaming platform.

[–] nymnympseudonym@piefed.social 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

No, they were in theaters. Part II was actually pretty well-made.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Oh shit, really? Like some limited release thing, or like in a lot of theaters?

IMAX and Metreon (Sony's foray into tech-oriented destination malls ... just before the dotcom bust)

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago

Ah, so you're the person who saw that movie

I was just wondering when the Trump "I did that" stickers were coming out.

[–] humminglady@feddit.online 5 points 6 days ago

Immediate re-share

[–] Bwaz@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Trump is an idiot, but I have to think that $20 per gallon gas would get even MAGA people serious about renewable energy again.

[–] miked@piefed.social -1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Why in gallons? Thailand uses metric.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Thailand also speaks Thai. Not English. 🤷
