weve always had photography people just looked like paintings for a bit

they should invent tech issues that other people have experienced and solved

my friend and i have been losing our goddamn minds over the photography in this zillow listing and i feel the need to share it with you all too

the lighting??? the fog?? the atmosphere???

this shit is like high art and it's a ZILLOW LISTING . and that's not even all the photos!!! what the fuck!!!

while I was staying at hilbert's hotel I went down to their infinite casino and basically they had these machines where you could bet increasingly absurdly large sums of money to gain a respectively increasing yet always arbitrary slight chance to win infinite money and blaise pascal was leaning over one of them dead eyed muttering "just one more spin"

I love that I share my house with one of the most efficient apex predators millions of years of evolution could produce. I love that two of nature’s most prolific machines met and were like “hmmm. We should lay around and do nothing together”. Now we’re both fat and happy and full of meat. The hedonism of it all

How I’d introduce a Deaf tech character in an action/sci-fi film.

1. Our heroes stop outside the big swoosh workshop door.
2. The introductory hero hands our pov protagonist a pair of earplugs.
3. “Why would I need those?”
4. “Trust me.”
5. Door opens, light and an INCREDIBLY LOUD recording of Beethoven’s Grosse Fuge Overture sweeps over our heroes. (Open to suggestions)
6. They step inside, the pov newbie clutching their ears.
7. Panning shot of workshop and inventions.
8. Our first intro to our Deaf techie is their sock-clad feet tapping in time.
9. Medium shot from the back of our Deafie dancing wildly.
10. Intro hero walks over and pulls the plug.
11. Silence.
12. Deaf techie turns around and sees visitors.
13. POV hero: “you know, you’ll go deaf if you’re not careful.”
14. Deaf techie [in sign]: too late. What you want?”

the mayor, as a concept, has an aesthetic appeal unique among politicians. any member of a council, of a voting body, these people can't *do* anything on their own, theyre like a leg or an arm. theyre incomplete, conceptually. not an interesting figure, unless the point is the nitty gritty politicking. and an executive at a higher scale, this is too inhuman. this is necessarilly a manager of underlings, a guy who for the most part just appoints people. can't really be "from" his entire constituency. but a mayor...a mayor is very much like a village "big man", any other admirable, respected part of your community. the mayor is a primal figure. they mayor, in image, is very much like the kings of old, when they mostly just ruled little city states. their outsized role in fiction is appropriate
