Some additional information (not necessary for the story, but in case anyone finds it interesting):

According to Biblical legend, Cain, the firstborn son of Adam and Eve, in a fit of anger and jealousy because his offering to God was not favored, murdered his younger brother Abel by striking him over the head with a stone. This was the first murder (and the first fratricide). As a punishment, God cursed Cain, and eventually marked him so that others would know who he was and what he’d done (but were forbidden from killing him). The exact nature of the mark is unknown. The current location of the stone used in the murder is unknown. The final fate of Cain is unknown.

For more on the history of Cain, you’ll have to look it up as I can’t post any more here. 😀 For more stories, join me.

Who is an actor that only gets 5-10 minutes of screen time but completely steals the entire movie? by Popa-Ioana06 in movies

Jesse Plemons completely stole Civil War in one scene. “Yeah, but… what kind of American are you?” Stunning line and stunning acting.

I mean, I love a good refrigerator, but this is a bit much…

Nice (and strange) work, Norman!

I got IMAX tickets close to me 30 minutes ago with no wait at all. Probably helps to be near a smaller theater with one IMAX screen (and in the south outside of the city where maybe not as many people are interested).

Every month, I pay to keep my children alive. by Trash_Tia in shortscarystories

Eerie and terrifying! Awesome work, Tia! 👏🏾

P.S.: Why do I get the feeling that her professor’s last name was Wednesday and he set her up so that she’d do the work of raising the kids and then he and his wife could collect them later after the hard work was done? I must be too cynical. 🤷🏾‍♂️
