So, it varies by state because everything is a certain degree of a shit-show here. In my state, you show up at the primary election site and you ask for one of two ballots. That's enough to "register" you as a Dem or Rep. It's pretty meaningless.
I know of one coworker who voted for Trump in the 2015 primary to "take down the Republican party from the inside." Great strategy, Steve. I'm guessing that some similar idiocy is what's being talked about here.
Somewhere I have a notebook with scene-by-scene notes on Mulholland Drive. Time loops, alternate universes, fever dream sequences that may be real, throwbacks, lookalikes, detours into madness and fear, all that. Multiple viewings. Full Deep River Ontario shit. (We actually IRL visited that creepy diner in CA. That experience is not recommended. The breakfast is OK. The turkey sandwich is 1000 times not OK.)
For me, every theory regarding the "WTF is happening" aspect falls apart when the old couple from the taxi come creeping out of the blue metallic lock box. Like, everything sort of hangs together with some fuzzy dream logic for me, but then falls apart in the true gossamer of dream fashion. There's sometimes a buggy, I guess.
Top 10 of favorite movies.
That's the sort of horror story that's going to keep me stabbing my potatoes.
Same here! Last night I was stabbing a couple out of habit and felt like the question needed to be asked.
That was an interesting listen. And sad. I can't imagine the situation has improved.
Wikipedia mentions that they've flipped diplomatic ties with China and Taiwan a couple of times in the past 20 years. Honestly, that seem like a cheap price to pay for some investment.
Oh, but like the radio piece said, "You've never heard of it, but once you do it seems to be everywhere." My grandfather and a couple of his brothers visited (and unsuccessfully tried to stay) in the 1930s. He always described it as a paradise. That was, of course, a long time ago and before the mass destruction. I also ~~wonder if~~ assume I have some unknown Nauruan cousins.
I would fear an eggplant more than a potato. Higher moisture and tougher skin. Not going to take any chances.
Now that's the exciting outcome from my worst fears.
Interesting! That's kind of what I was thinking as a realistic outcome.
No. I've got a couple in the oven right now because the weather is cold. In warmer times I've been using an air fryer.
Thank you.
I don't have the patience or tact to offer thoughtful and gentle explanations (as you did) when it's "pointed out" that many people from the region could be considered Semitic.
It's very much the sort of argument my clever nephew might make. He's a smart kid, but he hasn't gotten to the point where he can understand that a clever fact is not necessarily in any way relevant to a complex problem. And certainly not a devastating argument that can simply stop everyone in their mad mutual desire for destruction.
"Well, shit. We were all Semites the whole time????"
In any case, thanks.
Who is the bigger fool? The fool or <insert that one Old Ben Kenobi quote>? I would definitely watch this in a theater. Same as I have watched the re-release of a bunch of Hitchcock and Miyazaki movies.
And then we're not considering the whole Patrick Stewart thing. I can't even remember if he played Gurney or Duncan (how is this a name and how much crack have you smoked?) Idaho.
