youtube auto-captions are fucking wild

This looks beautiful 🤩

Top pick for me is the Spanish dub of White Chicks? Ok Roku whatever you say #whitechicks #roku

Sound up, this is a joy.

This sounds pretty great tbh

Millennials and Gen Xers may recognize this song as the main title of "The Adventures of Pete & Pete". But what Polaris didn't dare tell Nickelodeon, for fear of losing the gig, is that the song is about the Kent State massacre. The titular "Sandy" is Sandra Lee Scheuer.

Best film adaptation of The Odyssey, wrong answers only

Give me your favorite non-Trek performance from a Star Trek actor: When I was 16 or so I watched Spenser for Hire pretty much every week and I thought Hawk was the coolest guy ever on TV. I suspect I was right.

Happy Star Wars Day! I am mostly a curmudgeon that only likes the original movies, (and Andor, I’m not made of stone) but it still has a place in my heart. #maythefourthbewithyou #starwarsday

A+ concept, no notes

Coates doing vital work as always

A scene depicting a rubbing motion to produce sound, created by sculptor Pinuccio Sciola (1942-2016) by carving acoustic sculptures into rocks on the island of Sardinia.

Finished!

I have considered Moleskine to be outrageously overpriced for quite some time but using AI to generate a sketchbook cover betrays a level of hubris that is wild even for them. Those high prices and they couldn't be bothered to pay a human? Dump 'em. cjleo.com/blog/moleski...

Drop something from the 1980s This show was my lifeblood in the early 80s. I discovered so much good music, and it was on every afternoon! Incredible. #mv3 #itwasacceptableinthe80s

This is not wrong.

strait of hormuz update

This man is correct. Hershey’s chocolate is an abomination, I truly do not understand how anyone can voluntarily pay actual money for it.

RIP Moya Brennan. U2’s Live at Red Rocks concert film kicked off with this song, and as dazzled as my teenage brain was by U2’s performance, this song got its hooks in someplace deep and stayed put for a long time. In the long run, its influence on my taste was bigger than U2’s turned out to be.

This is the energy I want to see in the face of AI “creators”

Personal Jesus is one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard and retroactively stopped me from wanting to listen to anything at all by Depeche Mode for decades

Bonus points for the googly muppety eye effect from putting two pics side by side

This date wasn’t on my radar, but it should be! Worth commemorating.

Here you see our dog Hazel. She really is a good girl but she’s afraid of everything and responds by barking. A lot. We put those edging pieces in to keep her from leaning on the wall, but now she just leans on them instead 🤦‍♂️ #gonutsforhazel #bullpei #rescuedog #peipatrol

My toupee has a mind of its own. We’re no longer speaking, I don’t care where he is

Probably the best pic of Deadman I have ever seen. Makes all others look like they didn’t read the brief. 10/10

Depluralize a movie: One Beaver

Hopefully, when @marklewisohn.bsky.social gets to writing about 1967, we’ll learn about the time Paul went by the name “Scooter” for DC comics #PaulMcCartney #SwingWithScooter #DCComics

Finally found a breakfast strata recipe that does what I wanted to do, so I tried customizing it with ham, poblano, peppers, and cheddar. It was really good! Will fine-tune it a little next time but I’m glad it worked 😅 #breakfast #poblano #strata #cookofthehouse

Incredible - the state of it all! When I imagined film collectors’ hoards, I saw them tidy and stacked nicely on shelves. But I’m grateful to these collectors all the same, and to @filmisfabulous.bsky.social for their vital rescue work.

Y'all should block attie, if only because it would be hilarious for it to get into the top blocked accounts before it's even moved out of beta.

I bought like six of these when they came out as gifts for friends and fam. Treasured memories of sitting with my nieces years later, showing each other our favorites and laughing our heads off. If you don’t have it, find a copy. You’ll thank me! Or really you’ll thank @benjamindewey.bsky.social

If you could use some serenity today, give this a spin. Warning, it is not long enough. Like Maggot Brain, it can never be long enough youtu.be/TQtEFdyhgdE?...

Kurosawa on watching Solaris with Tarkovsky

Absolute mob of #sandhillcranes over the 50-Acre Park here in Evergreen Park, IL. Always a joy to see and hear them this time of year. #springtime #migration #birdwatching
