I love all the people tweeting about how they thought the trending tags were about Han Solo before they clicked and saw it was about Fast and the Furious, as though we're more than 2 or 3 FF movies away from a Star Wars crossover.
"Fast? You're looking at the ship that made the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs."

"Sure, she's fast...

...but is she...

furious?"
I'm sure they will. I just don't think they're that many corporate mergers away from ramping a car off the back of the Millennium Falcon to clear a sharknado.

The thing about Donald Duck... I mean, one of the things... is that his voice isn't just "a duck voice", he has a specific duck voice. There are other cartoon ducks, even outside his family, that use the same vocal effect. But Donald is Donald.
To do Donald's voice, you have to:

1. Do the duck voice.
2. But also do Donald's voice.
3. Make it exactly the right level of unintelligible. Not completely unintelligible. Not completely intelligible.

It's a wild balancing act.
And the level of intelligibility can go up and down with the needs of the scene or the project. There are some cartoons where Donald is not far off from a very noisy mime character and there are things where he has to deliver serious exposition.

Okay, but this is what being a Highlander fan is like.
"Oh, she's another Highlander?"

"No, she's from Mesopotamia."

"But she's a Highlander like him. It did the sound effect."

"He's the Highlander because he's from the highlands. Of Scotland."

"But that other guy was..."

"He's also from the highlands. Of Scotland."
In fairness, I guess it's not exactly intuitive that a media franchise about centuries-old sword-fighting immortals would think the altitude at which they were raised was the most interesting and important thing about them.

“Rage” is the thing with talons -
That courses through the soul -
And hunts the prey without a trail -
And never stops - at all -
And fiercest - in the Malestrom feared -
And swift must be the storm -
That could unleash the anger reared
To make our numbers swarm -
I’ve heard it roaring high above -
from Sea to shining Sea -
Yet - now here - in Extremity,
we ask what we - will be.

CNN Discovers Minnesota Is 'Turning to Trump' pjmedia.com/trending/cnn-d… #Trending via @pjmedia_com
The last Republican to win Minnesota was Richard Nixon in 1972. It's generally considered a blue state, but in 2016, Donald Trump barely lost Minnesota by roughly 44,000 votes.
According to a CNN report that aired Thursday evening, the state appears to be trending red and could be fertile ground for a Trump pickup in 2020. CNN's Martin Savidge found that Minnesota voters are “more and more aligned” with President Trump.

1. Love is a subject that every one of us has an opinion on. However our emphasis is on the doing part of Love. #Love
2. The first component of Love is in John 3:16 - for God so love the world that He gave his only begotten Son. #Love
3. To love is to recognize value in someone and to demonstrate that recognition of value. #Love

In June 2018, I tweeted a list of #JurassicParkTrivia (timed to celebrate the 25th birthday of #JurassicPark). Today I need that stuff archived, and because I'm an idiot I didn't thread the tweets. Soooo -- I'm going to tweet them all AGAIN, and this time THREAD THEM...
When checking out the sick Triceratops, Sattler puts her hand inside its mouth to touch its tongue. I know it’s not a real dinosaur. But this never seemed like a smart thing to do… #JurassicParkTrivia
I never quite understood the giant dung pile in the Triceratops enclosure. Does this mean that the #dinosaurs poop neatly in the same place? (that’s ok, some animals do). Or has it been shovelled together by the staff? Something to think about. #JurassicParkTrivia

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.

Much more than an #FF.
Certainly don't agree with everything they write about e.g. I'm against most indicators, fibs, fractals & divergences (what's up with this newfound love for OBV?). That's fine, we traders often disagree.
