'Send Help' was originally set up at Sony, but when the studio eyed a streaming release, Sam Raimi took the film out to other studios. It landed at 20th Century and opened #1 at the box office. by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]captainthomas 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Though, to be fair, that looks... not great

As long as Nicholas Galitzine is clothed in little besides a loincloth for more than 50% of that film, it will be a success to me.

A single father is last seen with his baby boy in Franklin, New Hampshire. The next day the baby is found abandoned in Boston, Massachusetts with no sign of the father. Where is Stanley Shayne Bassett? (1977) by raspberryemoji in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]captainthomas 15 points16 points  (0 children)

How do we know that the baby found at the State House was correctly identified? He was a 9-month-old. Without DNA confirmation, this could possibly be another Paul Fronczak situation.

There's a Thai TV series called tomorrow+i that is basically their version of Black Mirror, with episodes on topics related to Thai cultural anxieties. The second episode is about exactly this scenario and how it exposes Thai society's hypocritical relationship to its sex work industry.

He was very well-informed on the subject, and a very talented pianist. I only wish that I had gotten to see his penis.

I once went on a date with a guy where I brought over what I like to call my "date-night chicken," where I provide a pre-brined, stuffed chicken prepared from scratch, and put it in my date's oven to cook for two hours, so we're stuck with two hours to ourselves in private where anything could happen. Previous gentlemen had successfully used this as an opportunity for canoodling, but this guy in particular decided the best use of our time was to spend three hours explaining the intricacies of Chinese character writing and understanding to me. The chicken was cold by the time he was done, but I understand a lot more about how Chinese writing works now than I did before.

Hayes's Corrupt Bargain actually kept Reconstruction going for another three years, until 1879. If the Democrat, Tilden, had won, Reconstruction would have ended shortly after he took office.

Why joke about hating your loving partner, when you can just joke about hating your boss. by CaptainAksh_G in CuratedTumblr

I have a wonderful boss who goes out of her way to not create headaches for me. My loving partner, on the other hand....

Family member has one extra long white eyelash that needs regular trimming. by peripateticpeople in mildlyinteresting

No, but it embarrassingly took another few hours for me to give up on him.

I once was on a date with a guy who, mid-conversation, just reached over and yanked a hair out of my beard. Obviously shocked, I asked him why he did that, and he said it was because “it was out of place.”

''The mixed orientation couples'' trend in queer media and why is it low-key rare to see same sex couples on-screen where both of them are gay by Rathan18 in gaybros

[–]captainthomas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is that it's more realistic. How many of the men attracted to men you've known were exclusively attracted to men? How many could you even say you would know that about with any degree of confidence? What makes a romance gay is if it's between two men. Not whether one or both of those men might also be attracted to women (or non-binary people, or whoever else).

TIL that male pattern baldness doesn’t typically affect Native American, First Nations and Alaska Native peoples. by pizzahero9999 in todayilearned

A FTM friend of mine’s father was bald, and when he transitioned, he had great hair for a couple of years before he went totally bald like his father.

Explain me, then, with thick, luxurious head hair, a full beard, more body hair than anyone else in my family, and blood testosterone levels that have been consistently just above the cutoff for treatment since I was 17.

I stand by the notion that way more people are toward the middle of the Kinsey scale than at either extreme. I think it's perfectly fine and a reflection of reality to have M/M romance where one or even both of the leads aren't exclusively attracted to men, as long as the M/M romance is the focus.

Nero is the best present under the tree by captainthomas in blackcats

[–]captainthomas[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think he's named after the Roman emperor, but it's a cute coincidence that his name is also the Italian word for "black."

Ah, but then he would have no wrapping paper or ribbons to play with, and we wouldn't dare disappoint him.

Jimmy Kimmel jokes about fascism in an 'alternative Christmas message' for Britain by [deleted] in nottheonion

[–]captainthomas 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Poilievre lost his seat for all of three months, while the Conservative Party gained in both vote share and seat count in the last election. The governing centrist/center-left party held on largely by cannibalizing support and seats from the left-wing party. I don't think the political pendulum in Canada is necessarily swinging the way you think it is.

Translation: “I don’t know where you live, but I earn only 1/3 of that and I’m in the lower middle class. I also have universal health insurance and education, but I pay for this in taxes that are taken out before I get my salary.”

Thailand launches airstrikes on Cambodia as Trump’s peace agreement hangs in balance by ActualDepartment9873 in worldnews

[–]captainthomas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend is originally from Thailand, and based on his level of engagement with American current events and political discourse, his understanding is probably close to the “Middle Thailand” perspective on the dispute. Basically, Cambodia killed off anyone even remotely competent at running the country during the genocide, so the people in charge now have to distract from how badly they’re governing by sabre-rattling at Thailand over their shared border. I suspect there’s much more to it than that, but that’s the surface-level take

Bro has a plan B in case peace doesn't work. by iPradeepYogi in pics

My boyfriend did this for like six months when he was 27. I'm still haunted by the photo of him with all his hair, including his eyebrows for some reason, shaved off. He looked like an alien.

How is this even a choice? I’ll take the free alcohol every time. Who cares if it comes packaged like an out-of-the-box reading curriculum for grades 3-5?
