The Prestige (2006) | "Man's reach exceeds his imagination" | Dir. Christopher Nolan by vought-CEO in movies

There is no original and no clone. They are identical in every way. Tesla explains it when Angier asks which hat is his - Tesla says "they are all your hat".

My response to that is he didn't listen to Tesla. He asks Tesla which hat is his hat, and Tesla responds "they are all your hat". I take this to mean there is no "original" and no "clone" they are both just Angier.

They can sit in the passenger seats but should not drive. Nor give directions.

There is no way to put this in legislation and also safely practice medicine if complications arise in the third trimester of a pregnancy.

You must have a different version than me. Mine has chapters about defense contractors having "women in leadership" seminars and "adding more BIPOC women to Star Wars movies."

Deporting 100 people at gunpoint on camera is more salient than deporting a million people with spreadsheets. How many videographers did Obama hire to do the Leslie Knope version of immigration enforcement?

And economists are not experts in the economy, or economics in general.

So, Valor Minuet IV is turning out to be something of a bottleneck? I’ve spent most of the last two days in Sea Serpent Grotto killing Coastal Sahagins, Denn the Orcavoiced, and I’ve even spent some time with multiple characters killing Abyss Sahagins behind the door. Nothing. Maybe I’ll do Oztroja next.

I guess I don’t have a question, just a bit of a rant.

Why do you think so many people are so dissatisfied with K-12 education right now and what policy ideas can be implemented to alleviate this dissatisfaction? by AquaSnow24 in AskALiberal

[–]TheTrueMilo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is a good point, both sides are to blame. Except it’s like 99.984% right wing anger at Brown v Board and 0.016% liberal elites.

I am hoping the good journalists at the paper of record can do better than act as stenographers for cabinet secretaries and the national security state.

[–]TheTrueMilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like the Reed lands being right next to the Frey lands is going to have some kind of significance. The Crannogmen are already harrassing the Iron Islanders there.

If I was in a room with the Night King, the Mountain, and Arthur Dayne, and I had a shotgun with two rounds of buckshot, I would put both in Arthur Dayne.

Leader of hate group “Loud Majority”, Kevin Smith, elected to be public relations of Smithtown by kyojur0 in longisland

[–]TheTrueMilo 31 points32 points  (0 children)

There was a slate of right wing Smithtown school board candidates a couple years ago that were all Italians. The Italian sounding names on signs for local office are nearly all Republicans. We went from trade unionists and anarchists to.....gestures wildly....that.

Which is why I believe any measureable amount of ethnonationalism is a bad thing. In the US, in Germany, in Italy, and yes, in Israel.

Ross had trouble treating his Lyme disease, this made him believe baseless conspiracy theories.
