i watched The Adventures of Prince Achmed, in honor of the king of Saudi Arabia dying. it should be called The Adventures of the Witch, the witch is the one who does all the heavy lifting. Prince Achmed and Aladdin are just sort of along for the ride, and are both creepy with women. while the two of them are kidnapping pretty women, and spying on beautiful women bathing, and tricking powerful women into loving them, and chasing protesting women through the woods until they swoon, the ugly old woman is repeatedly saving their asses from the evil African Wizard. be sure to watch this film, the earliest surviving animated film known to exist, before it leaves the criterion channel at the end of the month.

I heard that film is actually from 1973 and was made up with a story about being much older

I typically select my ice cream based on whatever flavor of self hatred I have going on that day

The best kind of ice cream is ice cream Any ice cream All the time A surprisingly fantastic one was this spruce needle ice cream that I had a few years back. Imagine a kind of rosemary-flavored ice cream. Wonder if you can still get it, it was a new flavor made for Finland’s 100-year independece

I like a good quality Vanilla Bean. When it comes to Ben and Jerry's I've been a Salted Caramel Core guy for a few years now but I also enjoy a Chubby Hubby.

ty everyone for saying nice things about macaroni. he is a bastard man that loves to chew cords and maul hands and feet but when hes sleepy hes very sweet. he will be a good cat one day, but for now he must endure the citrus spray. i make my own key lime sherbert and eat it a lot. i cant smell so i like things that taste very extreme. so my diet mostly consists of, like, spicy thai green curry for dinner and sour as gently caress sherbert for desert. or other regular foods but with maggi masala sauce poured all over it. otherwise all food tastes like wet styrofoam.

Jerusalem posted:The remastered version looks like how I think I remember the original, and seeing the actual original graphics is a total mindfuck. Phantasy Star 3 was better looking than I remembered. I'm kinda turned off on Phantasy Star 4, maybe the genesis mini is upscaling to my 1440p monitor wrong but everything else looks great so I don't know. But I remember PS4 looking as good as FFVI in my memories. The FFVI steam version looks poopy but I think they hosed the filters and text or something.

To me the remake and original graphics of Wonder Boy are both amazing in their own ways and I wouldn't be able to choose. Related: I bought Monster Boy but just haven't been in the mood to play that kind of game.

WatermelonGun posted:this curry I just made is too hot. Hot Curry. No such thing  TV Zombie posted:So the Initial D series that was on Prime was actually not the series but a movie titled "Initial D Legend 1: Awakening" and drat, that was thrilling and the only real action scenes were, arguably, two car races/ It makes me wonder what I was doing/watching when this anime was released and subtitled. They did a retelling of season 1 a few years ago in 3 different movies. That's the first one. I haven't checked in awhile but I think the original series is on hulu except season five and six (I think they called this final stage). If not, season 1, 2, and 4 are on funimation's youtube page subbed. Season 3 is a movie and probably on youtube but not officially.

So I was going to go to a Disability Policy Summit in DC in about a week and a half (after being strongarmed into it by my mom, who still insists on me working for free or even at cost for NETWORKING and RESUME BUILDING despite my earning a very good hourly rate as a contractor work) but I'm starting to wonder if they'll cancel it because of Covid-19 because it's a nationwide conference and PWD are obviously vulnerable populations. Myself included actually. My immune system is very strong but if I get a respiratory infection it can be very hard for me to shake. Is it wrong that I hope they cancel it?

As it stands my schedule is something like I'd leave Sunday the 22nd, be in DC several days, then turn back around to NC, stay in another hotel overnight to work an actual paid engagement on Friday. I think that's right anyway. I want the DC thing to be cancelled but still work the other thing on Friday so I can still get paid (which is actually fairly likely because the thing on Friday is a fairly small group of all in-state people).

Captain Magic posted:After nearly nine years sober o can confirm this. Free time is the true drug. seriously. I quit drinking and I had zero idea how to spend my free time. Then I discovered the joys of re-watching all the poo poo I sat through near blackout drunk. That's why when people are like "hey coco you're a big weirdo have you seen [recent weird thing]?" I always feel extra loving weird because I haven't gotten to it yet cuz I'm busy rewatching poo poo I thought I hadn't ever seen before. I'll take imposter syndrome mixed with deja vu for $400 alex. Re-watched Halo Unto Dawn, which was as good as I remembered. Its kinda wild that a lot of scifi people can't imagine a shooty boom boom universe without full on militarist fascism playing out. Tho I did enjoy the portrayal of family elements. Or rather, Nepotism in military. Dude is literally allergic to groundslog work and they still want him to tough it out because his mom is cool. Messed up. Keeping in the shooty boom boom universe theme, I started up Gundam's Advent of the Red Comet. Or whatever its called. It does a great job putting a bow on the whole UC timeline story arc, which was War Profiteers Will Kill Us All. It does a great job stringing together all the Char lore bits throughout the UC series of gundam shows.

heard this poem that reminded me of a couple people here. i don't want to be specific I’m a rock Go ahead and sear me I won’t budge an inch I’m a rock Go ahead and beat me up I’m a solid rock Go ahead and leave me in the darkness I’m a rock That will shine all alone I don’t break, I don’t burn, nor do I decay As I go against nature’s way I survive I’m a diamond Not a blood diamond or anything though A cool one That is sitting there where I said Earlier I added on some at the end, because diamonds are not that cool these days and the poem is not really about the superficial stuff, even though it sort of is, because it's more about a metaphor involving the physical properties. i don't know. Have a good one

I like the poem. I write a little bit of poetry every few days or so, when the inspiration strikes. Never share them with anyone. Nice to have a little creative outlet all to myself.

I keep going back and forth on how concerned I am about Covid-19, but TBH my dad is old, diabetic, and on medications that purposely weaken his immune system plus he has pulmonary issues stemming from something else so it's more that I would seriously not be able to live with myself if I ever put my dad in danger (even though sometimes I kinda hate his guts  )

Captain Magic posted:After nearly nine years sober o can confirm this. Free time is the true drug. Congrats! I am coming up on seven years very soon Free time really is the best, and its such a revelation once you stop drinking/drugging that you basically had a 24/7 job on top of your 'normal' life. Now even when I'm "busy", it's not nearly as "busy" as it used to be. I have had a lot less free time lately due to things I can't cancel (legal stuff, death of loved ones, etc.) But plans you can cancel are just wonderful, and I support Foochs and anyone else who wants to cancel the thing they don't want to do. I did get to sleep in on Sunday though, and hell yessssss i didn't do JACK poo poo and it felt great. Well, not entirely true; I did finish the final episode of Golden Girls.
