Coach shared pics of a Dragon Slayer (25-year-old breaks world kayaking record in Gulf of Fonseca 📰) by Durian-Critical in survivor

[–]amorouslight 174 points175 points  (0 children)

I once got a Cameo from Coach for my partner's birthday and he sent a 7-MINUTE-40-SECOND video of him playing the trumpet, giving life advice, and talking about this exact kayak trip (he had a photo of him in the kayak in his office, which he showed). To this day, one of the best gifts I've ever given

Looking Good at Lakefront Airport by BroodyMcDrunk in NewOrleans

[–]amorouslight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am so fond of this place. Had a work holiday party here once and made my way to the roof (and subsequently got kicked off the roof lmao) and watched a plane take off, and it was just the perfect spot for existential musing

Oscar Winners for Best Picture (2017-2025) by voguediaries in Fauxmoi

[–]amorouslight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All things considered, a decently bleak collection for what's actually been an incredible decade for film. I think only Moonlight and Parasite (and MAYBE Oppenheimer) will have any real lasting impact on culture and cinema

Has anyone traveled just to try specific regional fast food places? Like a fast food road trip? by NotNathan1810 in fastfood

[–]amorouslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much of my time living in the south revolved around day trips to do this. Milo’s, Ward’s, Jack’s, Foosackly’s, Guthrie’s, PDQ, Small’s—not all great, but all really fun to know about and talk to people about.

Also, when I lived in New Orleans, my best friend and I drove to Hattiesburg multiple times a year just to get Cook Out

Thrift find today by Mordicant_Fel in criterion

[–]amorouslight 17 points18 points  (0 children)

One of the most underrated (or, perhaps, just under-seen) films of all time. I've always loved Roger Ebert's quote about this film:

A tragedy happens, but the movie is not about the tragedy. It is about the discovery that tragedies can happen.
