It’s more than acceptance, its saying its the little imperfections that make something even more endearing than if they were perfect. A bit of wabi-sabi gives character, or makes things feel less sterile, or more natural. Perfection can be less pleasant than imperfection. Not always, I want my airplane engines made perfectly. But something like handmade clay plates and bowls with wabi-sabi are great.

Huh, it’s got some similarities to the Persian flaw, thinking about it. The intentional inclusion of an error in Persian rugs as perfection is for God alone. Imperfection is human.

Strange women in unimatrices distributing nanoprobes is no system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not some farcical technological indoctrination.

I’m not a comic book guy, but I like superman movies. Who’s Mr. Terrific?

Triops: tiny freshwater horseshoe crab looking guys. You can buy their eggs for cheap online and raise and breed your own. Easier and cheaper than SeaMonkeys.

I just upgraded my cpu in a long time too! Everything that could go wrong, did. I had to flash my bios a few times, straighten some pins, clean out some thermal paste from the socket, but after 3 days I figured it all out and got it working. Getting a build working after lots of problems is so fulfilling, it’s almost worth the years of life I lost from stress.

The Spectres

Like along u sound.

Fun fact:

In Dutch, two o’s make a long o sound. Dode. “oe” makes the “oo” sound.

Yeah! I liked that one too!

Officials in Prague, too.

The best thing I ever did TV wise was ignoring fan opinions about shows I want to watch before watching it. Hive minds plant seeds and set expectations, you can’t even passively read it. You gotta shut it out and avoid it. I really liked Kenobi, I think more people would have too if they didn’t see the angry reddit nerds picking it apart, coloring their first watch.

The vibraphone wants a word. Lionel Hampton is spinning in his grave.

Marriage is the intention of having a lifelong partnership. Romance is not necessary to love and support a partner, it’s just what’s most common. A fairy wedding sounds delightful.

Are you saying you and she would be legally married with witnesses and papers or you just want the ceremony and celebration without the paperwork? If the latter, be aware there might be grounds to make you common-law partners without your consent, I’d check those laws out.

Besides that, if you want her to be your beastie-partner-faux-wife, I’d still do a trial run of living together. Maybe even talk to a relationship counselor for tips to keep this sustainable. Any relationship that close, even platonic ones, take work and have conflict from time to time. You need all the same interpersonal strategies as any other spousal or life partnership arrangement. Living with someone and supporting eachother is still quite an intimate, complex affair, even without the sex and romance.

… did it work?

Kurn is a really fun character that Tony Todd did a perfect job with. But it was nice to see he has such great acting chops beyond the scope of Kurns rather one note personality. I cry at the drop of a hat when watching TV, this episode makes me ugly sob every time.

That said, there are some diamonds in the rough. The reason Fallout was so good is because it was a project of love from the Nolan bros. Filmmakers making shows is how you make great shows. Marketers making shows is how you temporarily increase stock value for shareholders.

The early 2000s was where the Golden Age of Television began with HBO knocking it out of the park with shows like Sopranos, The Wire, Rome, Six Feet Under- Television was being made by film makers and story tellers with high production value previously reserved for movies. This was a gamble and it was paying off in spades. Instead of 2 hours of quality film at a time, we had multiple seasons worth of top notch filmic storytelling. You could really dig deep and develop characters slowly in ways we hadn’t really seen before with this kind of fidelity.

But like all good things under capitalism, the financial success that accompanied this shift was analyzed by marketers and distilled into formulae. Now, those high production value shows are written by algorithms and directed by focus groups. Film makers and storytellers aren’t the leaders anymore, they are forced to work on projects and within the boundaries the marketing department set up. Hearing my favourite writers lament for the TV culture of 20 years ago is heartbreaking.

Lust month would be wild.
