watching the great snake thriller of the 1990s
retroactive best supporting actor nomination for this accent
when i saw this movie as a kid i obviously thought the snake was the villain but watching it as an adult i’m confident the snake is hero. these people shouldn’t have been trying to disturb that tribe!
“They strike, wrap around you. Hold you tighter than your true love. And you get the privilege, of hearing your bones break before the power of embrace causes your veins to explode.”
nothing funnier than these actors trying to play terror against a snake that looks like it came from a putt putt golf

the best way to do this is to grill both slices of bread on both sides, let them cool, then add your pb&j. it’s perfect.
spreading bread with butter and grilling it in a pan gives you a different (and superior) flavor and texture versus regular toasting

yep. “a democratic election victory is inherently illegitimate” is already republican party dogma and should biden/harris win by a similarly slim margins in 2024 republicans will simply refuse to certify the results. hell, we’ll probably see this even if they aren’t slim.
the party is currently purging local and state election officials who wouldn’t go along with the attempt to overturn the results last year, and republican-held swing state legislatures are seizing control of the election apparatus. the whole thing is unfolding in broad daylight.
just 44K votes in Georgia, Arizona and Wisconsin separated Biden and Trump from an electoral college tie

ironically, if this description is accurate a high school history teacher who assigned a passage from “The Racial Contract” would be in the clear but one who handed out a reading from a David Barton book would not be. theguardian.com/us-news/2021/m…
of course in practice what would happen is that Christian nationalism would be fine and teaching, like, Edmund Morgan would be a criminal offense.
the whole point is to make prohibitions so vague and nebulous as to discourage educators from even touching topics like slavery or Jim Crow or present-day discrimination.

FALCON AND WINTER SOLDIER does that Marvel thing where it provides a spot-on critique of the whole premise of a character and then basically asks you to forget about it
Isaiah Bradley was right, is what I’m saying.
Zemo and Karli too.

a good example of this is here in charlottesville, where our (mostly) car-free pedestrian mall is a major tourist draw and proposals to make it car free — or create a similar area near the university — draw opposition, blank incomprehension and outright ridicule.
on a broader note, what ryan calls “car supremacy” is an absolute disaster for equity of any kind. car-centric design in cities & suburbs are a nightmare for low-income & working-class people who are forced to devote a large part of their income to car ownership and maintenance.
the suburbanization of poverty makes it all the worse, as people have to travel even longer distances to places of employment. if you can’t afford a car, then, you have to use underfunded and thus unreliable public transit or you have to walk
