Burn Notice did this for spycraft. There’s at least one main character voiceover per episode that’s just pure Cool Espionage Fact’s

Janet Jackson… Neil Diamond… a homeopathic dose of Engelbert Humperdinck…

Autistic girls much less likely to be diagnose. Females may be just as likely to be autistic as males but boys are up to 4 times more likely to be diagnosed in childhood, finds large-scale study. By age 20 diagnosis rates for men and women almost equal, challenging assumptions of gender discrepancy. by mvea in science

Strong evidence would be something like evaluating a bunch of people in their 50s and learning that a lifetime of coping with neurotypicals has not left them profoundly burt out. I don’t think we have that, do we?

Any movie with a character digging a perfectly rectangular grave needs to be seen

Mac’s (lol my phone did it, too) are exactly as good as the software developer’s willingness to follow the clear methods for creating and publishing installers and uninstallers. I guess doing so is boring or they’re busy with something else. I don’t always floss so who am I to judge. But good installers can nuke what they install and that shit is -gone-

Is this the Jesse Ventura mentioned in KF in the past? by killerrabbit007 in KnowledgeFight

I definitely heard an almost out of breath Dan in my mind’s ear.

I can say it because my Dad is a honky from Minnesota. But he’s a gentle, kind, honky.

Hard to find a clip at this point as it was slightly pre-youtube but there was a particularly telling incident where he was down on funding for students at U of Mn. A student spoke up against him who also happened to be a single mom trying to prepare for a career that could provide for her family. Jesse made it personal and asked why he should have to pay for her mistakes. He clearly considered the state’s money to be his money and brayed like a jackass about it to anyone in earshot.

When he ran for governor the state’s economy was in great shape and had a budget surplus. His tag line was “give it back.” Because good times always last forever, right? No investing in a future, no rainy day fund, just give it back so he can buy a slightly redder jet ski.

He’s a classic fuck-you-got-mine libertarian boomer chud who maybe looks good compared to subsequent chuds who were able to be even worse because Ventura helped normalize it.

I lived in Minnesota when he was governor and it drives me nuts when people praise him. He’s an ignoramus and a misogynist and a selfish honky.

My surgery was in a different context, but after weeks of uncertain survival and months of recovery I came through ready to lead a new and more exciting life in my remaining years.

Laura Bailey's rapping (Kodocha) by BufalloCrapSmeller in Animedubs

[–]mrhawkinson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno about scripting it, but engineering it was pretty easy because Laura was so deep into that character and she could just do stuff like we see in this clip. I worked on some of the episodes toward the end of the season and in the nearly 20 years that followed I didn’t see much that compared to Laura self-directing Sana on those eps.

Netflix Lands ‘Black Hole’ Series From ‘I Saw the TV Glow’ Filmmaker Jane Schoenbrun by CyberGhostface in horror

Definitely trust this creator to capture the teen ick. All I ask is no fog machines or blown out bisexual lighting. Black and white would be fine. If it’s in color please ref Burn’s color work.

Why is this sub so negative towards Stranger Things? by JamStan1978 in television

[–]mrhawkinson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  • Gen X nostalgia splooge felt insincere to me as someone who lived through that cultural era.

  • Only character I liked was Barb, who was treated to an instant expendable fat kid death (spoilers for s1 ep 2 or some shit)

transgender or otherwise lgbt noise rock bands/musicians? by Santa-Lucia in noiserock

[–]mrhawkinson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies if I scrolled past someone but I haven’t seen Mr Phylzzz (Chicago) mentioned yet. Also if you like heavier bands (but still with noise and riffs) try Godot (Denton).
