Mmm, productivity

I have just discovered 30 seconds to Mars. I did listen to a couple a few years back but not sure why I didn't stick. That's exactly my type of music so it's very strange.

I really like some of their music, but then… Jared Leto. :/

he's a pervy twat. Also the whole fucked up idiot behaviour as the joker tormenting his coworkers. Sent margo robbie a live rat

(Said rat is now Guillermo del toro's beloved Venustiano)

He gives me the squick. Wants fans to worship him, takes himself a bit too seriously. Lots of rumours of him liking young female groupies, but nothing "official".

Watching The Marvels and it's honestly not a bad flick.

For recent Marvel offerings it's a pleasant surprise

I'm a bit invested in the missing woman in Ballarat, Samantha.

ramble, spoilered in case of triggersI keep reading the news story and wondering what could have happened. Like, did she fall into a ditch and the tall grass is hiding her? Was she attacked and/abducted?

It's just so strange. I really hope she is okay somehow, but being a bit of a true crime enthusiast it's hard to think that she is alive after 6 days. It doesn't make sense.

Sorry for the ramble, I hope she is alive and it was something mundane like falling or fainting in. A place that is hard to see. Her poor family.

Some reddit armchair detectives are calling suicide. Trouble is with so few details available you can make almost any theory sound convincing with a bit of conviction. With any luck she's just run off with someone she met online, she's reinvented herself, she now goes by becky and she's a barista over in Bali or some shit.

I didn't know about this but googled... new info has come up as of 2 hours ago, a woman was violently attacked by a man on a running trail like 20km from the search for Samantha.

Edit: The attack happened a year ago.

TW violence, injuries

Seemed pretty serious, she was knocked unconscious. tw for blood and facial injuries if you look it up. I'm wondering if maybe this guy is related to the disappearance

Just speed watched "The Gift", a beautifully produced 3 series Netflix show from Turkey.

Turkey really is a very beautiful place. The clothes were lovely. All the different Hittite, Assyrian, Seljuk and Turkic peoples were represented.

This was the slowest episode of Ancient Aliens I have ever seen. Every single story line from Ancient Aliens was in it. I really hate Ancient Aliens, it's neo-nazism as written by von daniken.

4 weeks of rest now, I should start moving around again. Still sore tho but not in agony.

So um, how come this guy opened the door twice? Why didn't the driver lock the door? https://youtu.be/I7j_IYYEYaE
