At first I thought you were thinking of No Escape. That was in SE Asia, although I don’t think they actually named it. Then I remembered Behind Enemy Lines, which is set in Bosnia. Two awful Owen Wilson movies.

the best part of that movie was the random serbian sniper who was chasing him down

this scene was in every action movie in the 2000s

Behind Enemy Lines is up there with Shrek for the “I watched this so many times on HBO a year or three or whatever after it came out” cause it felt like they were being run forever.

I remember it at least being entertaining back then, but I also haven’t seen it in well over 15 years.

My dad was so pissed when Behind Enemy Lines came out because (supposedly) he was writing a movie script where an American civilian became trapped and he has to make his way back to safety during the Balkan War (he was also stationed over there for a while as a civilian DOD employee). He absolutely loathed that movie and Owen Wilson for years.

I don't remember the details because he talked about it when we were high.

Local farmers market had asparagus and morel mushrooms, so I picked them up to accompany my ribeye steak. The ribeye was sous vide with parsley & cilantro stems, then I tried infusing the leftover herbs into some olive oil using my blender. That didn't really work but I did strain the oil over the steak which was :discourse:.

I lived on campus the first two years at UF and the dorms had their own version of HBO that showed movies all day. Behind Enemy Lines was in the rotation for a while. So was Evolution, which holds up.

I'll try that next time. I had the herb stems left over in the sous vide bag and I thought "How can I use this?"

The morels were also butter basted in garlic and TBH they were the real star of the show.

Hah. I had a book idea that I abandoned after Wolverine Origins had a near-immortal character surviving Nagasaki. It was like the seventh decently original plot point I had that got directly lifted in a very short time period, and after that it was just Welp. There's only so many superhero-like tropes to go around, I suppose.

Will Smith should do a Fresh Prince sequel series where he's the Uncle Phil and of course shenanigans and life lessons occur. I'd watch it.

Though nothing is ever gonna top seeing the "Why don't he want me" scene. Probably his best acting ever. drat maybe I should just rewatch the series... I feel like it will (mostly) hold up.

It's like this with "For All Mankind" too, except they don't ever reference China, because I guess Apple is worried about it? And ironically, I'd argue that the North Koreans were the only good group in Season 4 since everyone else is hosed in some way.

Ah, feel free to. This was off the top of my head and I completely forgot that the double-faced format existed tbh, lol. My idea for the jogger was "Target opponent puts a 1/1 Jogger token onto the battlefield. QB can only attack the player who controls the Jogger," but I'm sure there's a better idea for it

Argh, found a giant tick on my kid from visiting relatives 8 days ago. Had checked him a bunch including his hair but somehow missed it. Tried to use extinguished matches to get it to back out, it wouldn't, so gently pulled with tweezers and got the head out with skin attached even though I know that's frowned upon. Time to take him to pediatrician just in case, and saved the tick in case they test it.

I"ll let me kid cut the tick open and see the bit of blood pour out, I used to do that with the ticks we would pull off our dog that were the size of grapes (its nowhere near that big).

God drat ticks. I felt one on me the same trip and killed it but 'felt' nonexistent ones crawling for another day.

I'm in Chicago, but we were in north central Illinois by Wisconsin border, in some prairie and forest preserves, and I'm sure that's where he got it.

Edit: he probably got it at the bird banding station when we were out walking the mist nets and watching people putting birds into bags for measurement/tagging.

Personally I think different mushrooms have their place depending on application. A couple years ago I was foraging with a fellow ex-studio mate near the Oregon coast & we found some lobster mushrooms. After cleaning them off when we got back to the beach house, we made vegan sushi with them.

I did pick up some maitake & lion's mane mushrooms last Sunday as well. They've been roasted and will be part of the week's meal prep along with some stir-fry of Italian sausage-flavored tempeh & a bag of coleslaw cabbage/carrots.

Hot take: I think truffles are a little overrated. They have such a powerful flavor that it can overwhelm a dish if you're not careful. Also truffle oil is the fungal version of snake oil.

Wow, I didn’t realize the Lone Star tick was that far north now. I’d be more worried about Lyme given where trevorreznik said he’s at.

Also gently caress ticks. Here in AZ the brown dog tick reigns supreme, which is only a problem as you get closer to the reservations where RMSF is significantly present. The Lone Star tick is present now in SE Arizona though…

Ugh ticks suck. Had a couple as a kid too, usually from camping, but I remember one was just at a day camp and it was huge. Took forever for them to get it out.

The internet tells me we have ticks in Colorado but I’m not sure I’ve ever seen one. Which I’m very thankful for. Whereas in New England you couldn’t loving walk out the front door without getting 5 of them on you. As a kid my dog had multiple ticks stuck to her at all times and I knew several adults who had terrible symptoms from undiagnosed Lyme disease
