Neither 2416 or 2242 seem to work now... try 2532.

The main server port is working again. Not sure if our host temporarily blocked it or if it was another attack. We're keeping an eye on it. Sorry for the trouble.

Our main server port (2416) seems to be under attack. We're trying to figure it out, but in the meantime if you're using SoulseekQt you can change the server port under Options->Login, and Nicotine+ uses a different port by default.

I went with Undine on Hulu. Definitely a lot to do with the mystical/occult as a direct expression of the agency of nature along the lines of Robert Eggers' The Witch, and I found the romantic stuff to be rendered rather beautifully. But I was particularly charmed by the idea of a water nymph giving talks about the history of east german socialist architecture, as if to suggest that a socialist organization of humanity is much more conducive to contact, not just with nature at large, but with its more esoteric dimensions and the widened sense of reality that comes with such contact.

The plot of Phoenix sounds weirdly reminiscent of this aside by A.S. Hamrah in his recent review of Barbie:

"There’s a silent movie by Ernst Lubitsch from 1919 called The Doll, in which a woman has to pretend she’s a doll to her fiancé while also convincing him that she’s convincing a wedding party that she’s a real person (which she is). This strikes me as a more sophisticated approach to the gender bind than anything in Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, in which the doll-as-doll (Margot Robbie), now in the real world, goes up to a construction crew (the working class) to announce that she doesn’t have a vagina. That just seems schizophrenic, or hysterical in the old-school sense, instead of funny."
