Wouldn't you say Senator, that it's the government's responsibility to keep Australian's bank passwords safe?
IF YOU GUYS ARENT NICE TO ME IM GOING TO CONTINUE THE MASS SLAUGHTER OF SENTIENT LIFE AND DESTRUCTION OF THE PLANET 😤
But that lifestyle contributes 15-20% of the entire planets GHG emissions. That lifestyle is selfishly ruining my planet.
I was giving $20 a month to Effective Altruism, for years, before someone told me it's a messed up organisation. I stopped, and since then haven't given money to anyone. Except $3 a month to Wikipedia, but that's small fries.
I did a chunk of research looking for strong climate focused charities, but if they didn't state veganism anywhere on them, I passed and come up empty handed.
Man I get it, it's important to do this kind of research so we understand the impacts of our actions.
But boy oh boy is this bad optics for environmentalists. I can just hear Murdoch's propaganda arm going "the Greenies want you to kill your dogs for climate change".
Proving our place in the cosmos already HAS extraordinary evidence. Our continued existence (and witness to that) IS the evidence. No one bar solipsists doubt that humans exist.
I think if you're expecting traditional horror, it's more likely just going to frustrate for sure.
You either have the fear the director is trying to evoke, or you don't.
Fair enough, a CBC News review said
"Even though [Skinamarink] has cemented its place as one of my favourite releases of 2023, I almost feel I'd have better odds playing Russian roulette with a fully loaded gun than finding someone to recommend it to who'd actually enjoy it."
It's not a narrative film as much as just a mood, an evocation, tapping into a very unique experience.
SKINAMARINK.
Two kids wake up in the middle of the night, and things are just ... Not right. The door's not where it's supposed to be, the chairs in the dining room aren't right, mum and dad are acting odd...
It's such a primal form of horror for me, when simple things are just - different... It's either painfully boring for people, or uniquely terrifying.
As much as I'd love a sale, the game is really quite tough. My partner was/is streaming it on twitch, she's a moderately good gamer and she spent probably an hour on one of the mid stage duets.
I do have "Less Hard" as a difficulty setting that drops the notes you saw in the trailer, probably in half. And if people really want an "Even Less Hard" mode, I can add that in probably a day or two.
If you're interested in the treatment of laboratory animals, Peter Singer's Animal Liberation goes into great detail.
Of note, the LD⁵⁰ test tasks how much of something needs to be given to animals before 50% of them die (n usually = 20 to 200). Sometimes that involves force feeding them via tubes, because the quantity required to kill is so vast.
This is used for pharmaceuticals, pesticides, industrial chemicals, household cleaners, food additives.
Typically death by this route is not pleasant.
