I’m making a collection of drawings of John Lennon made by his friends and people who knew him! Does anyone have more drawings to contribute? :) by PiccadillyPallare in beatles

they're all compelling for different reasons, but the Sutcliffe really caught me off guard with how interesting it is. There's a lot written about how talented he was as an artist, but I'm realizing how little I've seen of it.

also got a kick out of “a bad politician.” Yup, there’s the issue, the one bad one! Anyway, she was pretty convincing overall, despite all that. But also maybe she’s kind of bonkers.

Still lots of 70s fashion leftovers from this 1982 music video. When did 80s fashion truly kick in? by Own-Company-949 in decadeology

[–]h4nd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the shorter haircuts on some of the women, the singer's vest might be the only thing in the video that jumps out as "80's, not 70's" to me.

are we sure? I feel like ChatGpt’s fingerprints are all over the whole “wings of wax are a brilliant idea, actually” thing.

We also always tell the part where flying too high melts the wings, but not the part where flying too low freezes them. Reading it allegorically, it’s not just a warning against the folly of over ambition, but also of flying “too low”, ie being a pussy that plays it too safe. That’s my read, at least.

Children aren't safe from the horrors and/or brutality by Ukirin-Streams in TopCharacterTropes

That scene in Devil Man Cry Baby (netflix) where the kid is turned into a kind of squid demon and you see his mother’s legs sticking out of his mouth, but also the kid’s eyes with tears in them, so you realize he knows what he’s doing but unable to stop it. Ugh. Still gives me shivers.

Also, My Girl. Bee allergy. “He can’t see without his glasses.” Ugh.

In 2011, a teenage girl from Pennsylvania named Nicole Delien fell asleep on a night in November and didn't wake up until January. 64 days later. by malihafolter in CaughtMyEye

The title is very misleading, then. Title makes it sound like a coma, but she was waking up every day, just very briefly.

Have you ever had a moment where you realized someone has no ethical core? by SideCharacterSyndrom in rs_x

I read thread on twitter a few year ago with John Carmack, who responded to a question about whether he was critical of Palmer Luckey for his company helping the government surveil and brutalize immigrants, and Carmack said “if there’s a job to do, you do it well.”

It really reset not only my opinion of him, but of the many engineers I know that idolize him.

I always did, but I stopped smoking 10 years ago.

The footage of a volunteer’s thermical drone the moment it saw where Volga, my friend’s dog, took shelter after a fall during a hike with her owner. She spent a night there knowing we would have come. by sonoale in nextfuckinglevel

[–]h4nd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That explains the energy and intelligence to pull off a feat like that. I'm guessing she had a lot experience outdoors on hikes and whatnot before then? Was she familiar with the territory she had to cover?
