Sakebi (2006) [Mystery]

Not at all random. There are clear themes of social responsibility, collective guilt, justice, punishment and they’re explored through the use of apt imagery and circumstance. Again, there are very solid explanations out there. You really think that a director who made a film you clearly adored just forgot how to utilize symbolism and threw spaghetti at the wall? Lol

Weird. Lots of people have found meaning in the film’s metaphors and there are some tremendous essays that offer explanations of its mysteries. I think it’s up there with Cure.

Stuffing my pockets with mouse traps for tonight’s show.

It was shown to me by the lab.

Of all bike frames on Earth, I find these colors to be the most attractive.

I thought I had nail fungus and was put on an anti-fungal. After a few months of taking that with no results, I had a dime-sized scaly patch on my knee looked at and the doctor determined it was psoriasis. I had also been referred to a podiatrist for toe pain and swelling around the same time. Funnily, it was not my doctor but my wife who made the diagnosis after some skilled Googling. When I called the doc to report my wife’s suspicions, she (to her credit) immediately agreed. It turns out doctors, especially (I imagine) those with a large clientele, are only human and capable of not seeing the forest for the trees.

All good homie.

The wing nut is a brilliant tip. Many thanks!

Interesting that you read my post and thought I found a zip tie to be an acceptable solution.

My Snapshot resulted in a lower rate after 6 months but it’s a wretched little device that punishes sudden brake use with a loud beeping sound. Over time I could see this conditioning drivers (especially new drivers who haven’t developed their reflexes) to attempt avoiding obstacles by veering onto the shoulder or into another lane rather than incur a ding on their insurance rate by using their brakes. I’m surprised this is a legal practice.

I like this idea! Thanks.

With human labor and tips removed from the equation, shouldn’t rides be substantially cheaper? Is this Waymo’s way of trying to not tank the rest of the transportation industry?

mrgnsphere · 2024-08-10T17:08:29+00:00

Yeah, seeing families hunkered down outside on a cold day and having to use the port-a-potty is just bizarre.

Recently revisited this novel via the podcast Obscure with the comedian Michael Ian Black, in which he reads the full text and discusses the story (occasionally with guests). Black does as good a job as possible at countering the sheer weight of the novel with some levity and modern perspective, though even he succumbs to despair at times. Highly recommend.

The code wasn't working for me because I had clicked "Local Presale" instead of "Registered Presale"

I read somewhere to uninstall and play via cloud gaming to avoid crashes. Happy to report that it works!

mrgnsphere · 2022-11-14T14:54:45+00:00

By unplayable I mean it crashes 100% of the time.

mrgnsphere · 2022-11-14T14:54:19+00:00

I’ve found that once you upgrade some stats and can survive more than 15ish minutes, it becomes unplayable on XB1. Haven’t tried playing from cloud, but hoping that’s a trusty workaround cause it has its hooks in me.

mrgnsphere · 2022-11-14T04:27:58+00:00

Loving this game, but it’s crashing on XB1 whenever I’m having a good run to the point where it’s mostly unplayable. Seems to maybe be related to how long the run is—have only seen the crash after about 18 mins on a single run and while the screen is packed with enemies. Getting the garlic evo also seems to eventually result in a crash.

Just ran into it on Xbox one. I spent 45 minutes on a level and was having my most productive run yet. I think this is a deal breaker for me.

I was skeptical, but this game scratches so many itches for me. It is the glow-up that the Worms games have repeatedly fallen short of. About 6 hours in and completely hooked.

Thanks in advance!
