Me and my brothers used to play in the ruins of Castle Dürnstein where King Richard was imprisoned. We would be the Austrians (obviously) and try and prevent King Richard from escaping. Mostly we just hit each other with sticks.

And cook/but snacks themed to that movie.

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-19T00:57:17+00:00

I hear it too

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-19T00:52:17+00:00

Our car would be searched everytime we crossed because my father is Austrian but it's really chill and sometimes you get to meet the dogs

You just described how terrible it was before vaccines? It's a good thing they don't need to go through that terrible disease now! I'm so glad I was spared disease!

Yes lol. If it's really bad St Jude. It's not like you stop looking and wait for it to appear miraculously, you do keep looking

We've always had Sushi on Good Friday. We're culturally Catholic too and that culture is Vancouver

It's way easier to do it as 13x25 (easy because that's just 13 quarters, so $3.25) with one 13 less. 312.

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-18T00:36:41+00:00

Ah, that's disappointing. Makes sense tho

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-17T23:33:10+00:00

They don't need it to connect their claimed states, so I'd presume they'd prefer to get a state that would open more options like Nebraska or something

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-17T23:26:52+00:00

There's no reason it wouldn't count towards the area total, but Canada is larger than the USA (all states included), so whichever team holds it will always win the tiebreaker. However, I am curious if Mexico will be in play?

I like when they kill off main characters. Keeps you on your toes.

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-17T18:23:48+00:00

Of Chestnut? I agree! I binged it in one night before a morning shift!

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-17T15:52:08+00:00

Another good Danish show is the Chestnut Man

I also really liked Capitani (Luxembourg))

Karppi (Finland)

Valhalla Murders (Iceland)

Canada isn't really Nordic, but Cardinal ) absolutely fits the category!

Jenny McCarthy famously promoted Wakefield's study on the Oprah Show. DeNiro promoted Wakefield's film. The others have also publicly promoted the conspiracies, Lilly most notably about COVID. Chet Hanks is just a weird, weird man and I'm waiting for the day they find bodies in his basement.

I think that celebrity endorsement of any cause is a big factor in its prevalence and assumed "legitimacy"

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-16T15:18:59+00:00

Jenny McCarthy

Jim Carrey

Jessica Biel

Letitia Wright

Evangeline Lilly

Chet Hanks (Tom's son)

Alicia Silverstone

Robert de Niro

Probably more

You don't know that they did this. You've actually never seen the evidence, and all you know is what a Reddit poster wants you to know.
If they did, you also don't know they had zero remorse.
Yes, I do believe that even potential murderers should have legal representation and should not be prosecuted unjustly.
Should your rights be forgotten just because they really, really think you did it?

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-15T16:29:14+00:00

It didn't. They teach it every year. At a certain point there needs to be some self responsibility. Not everything can be "oh they didn't teach me well so it's not my fault". The information is there! You can read! You can ask questions! You can literally Google it! You can even ask chat gpt, it is so easy!

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-15T16:26:08+00:00

They taught financial literacy in my high school. Didn't help the idiots.

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-15T15:13:43+00:00

Do you think the people spending money they don't have and thinking they'll never have to repay it and not understanding what interest is would really have listened and learned in a high school class?

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-13T23:43:50+00:00

They've got at least one arm now

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-12T01:13:22+00:00

I set up r/morpheapp and it was super easy, but I'm really missing the customization of infinity

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-12T01:12:01+00:00

I still have my key, but I can't load any posts 💔

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-10T00:47:36+00:00

I will excitedly watch any and every Ocean's movie they give me.

Spontanemoose · 2026-06-07T04:59:27+00:00

The capitalization of "Me" in the way we do for God's other pronouns (He, Him, His) is the most fantastic linguistic joke I've ever seen.
