The thread I split off from the old one seems to have vanished, or I’ve brained my damage. Anyway:
Oh sorry, I merged the threads as I thought the new one had been started by mistake. Is the old thread becoming unwieldy now? I’ve stopped rebooting threads after 10 pages as it didn’t seem to be making a difference.
Ah OK, let’s close it then.
Don’t need twice
That’s the problem with Lovecraft adaptations in a nutshell, of course.
More than meets the eye…
Nobody’s going to force-feed them to you.
Yeah OK.
I’ve had chocolate covered ants and barbecue flavored crickets and they were great.
Nobody’s going to force-feed them to you.
Yeah OK.
The whole “they’re going to force feed you bugs” is yet another anti-semetic conspiracy theory. Good job staying away from politics!
That R2D2/Shining image is excellent.
Nothing to see here
The fuck?
Click the video.
And you thought the perfect tattoo didn’t exist…

I have no idea if DeBeauvoir and Sartre knew each other in real life and I have no interest in knowing. I just want to believe they were like this together.

I love the Marlowe one.
Yeah, that’s pretty much what my first room looked like. Only the coke cans would’ve been beer bottles. And there was a huge ashtray which I tried to not empty for a year and see how much ash it could hold. Oh, and there was no TV, but a pile of books and comics instead,
Man, I miss those days.

See, this is one of those things where I’m thinking, nah, I don’t think that’s actually the truth. So I look it up, and hey, you know what? This is what the sign actually said:
One of the signs in the Nature Gallery, showing the work of artist John Constable’s paintings of English hills, noted that the artwork can stir feelings of “pride towards a homeland.”
“Landscape paintings were also always entangled with national identity,” the sign read.
“The countryside was seen as a direct link to the past, and therefore a true reflection of the essence of a nation,” it added. “Paintings showing rolling English hills or lush French fields reinforced loyalty and pride towards a homeland.”
However, another part of the sign told visitors that “there is a darker side” to the images of the British countryside.
“The darker side of evoking this nationalist feeling is the implication that only those with a historical tie to the land have a right to belong,” it added.
So actually the sign mainly pointed out that these pictures have always been connected to national pride (and presumably this has always been part of the sign about these poaintings), and then adds a sentence that is probably new that points out that that’s not always a good thing.
Doesn’t seem so absurd to me. And fuck the fucking right-wing culture warriors who try to stir shit with this kind of thing.
I just saw some Royal stalker on Sky News saying this photo puts all the conspiracies to bed but… it’s definitely not her, right?

I think the best way to dispel the idea that something weird is going on is to put out a clearly-photoshopped family photo followed by a series of blurry long-lens pictures that look almost like her, but not quite.
I’m all in on the “her butt exploded” conspiracy
“Literally”?
