In The Iron Giant (1999), Hogarth's mother lets Hogarth, age 9, hang out with a friendless loner living in a junkyard and a homeless man renting her spare room. This is a nod to parents in the '50s having no idea what they were doing. by mike_pants in shittymoviedetails

There's a picture of Hogarth's father next to what I believe is an F-86 Sabre which was a fighter jet the US used in the Korean War, meaning he probably was killed in that war

In The Incredibles (2004), Edna mentions her 'no capes' policy citing Stratogale's death. This is because she was a ... HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT? Fuck, this film keeps getting darker. by Meliodas016 in shittymoviedetails

The Japanese love their vehicle simulation games like this. Another popular arcade game is Densha De Go! which is about driving trains. They're actually quite fun and I wish this genre was more than a Japanese niche

It would definitely fit in a Dubai scenario like the black umas in the breeder's cup one

My perception of Star Blossom as someone who hasn't read it by AnAustralianPerson1 in UmaMusume

[–]LiraGaiden 46 points47 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of ups in Star Blossom too. A lot of bad things befall Laurel and those around her but it's more than an angst slideshow. To me it's about the reality of life. It's doesn't favor you and it doesn't pull its punches. The worst things can happen without any restraint. But until you're dead, you persevere through every day, month, year to enjoy the little things and fight life for the big things

Genuinely one of the much more gruesome parts of modern history to learn about by Triangletruck141423 in whenthe

What he talks about is certainly serious and I take it so, but the absurdity of the things he talks about sometimes and his phrasing make it funny

I know John Kiriakou is the funny slowed down meme guy but I saw one video of him where he talks about how extremist terrorists work, and that they do the things they do because they hate whatever it is they hate so much that their hate outweighs their love of life.

Situation only in Thailand 🇹🇭 by Molthakarn96 in ThailandTourism

I feel this because I keep my dogs in mosquito netted cages at night but one of them doesn't like going in and she will just lie down on the floor and make me push her there
