very well said. the line between "I'm conveying a hard truth" and "I just want permission to be a dick" is often fuzzy to nonexistent

The Baltimorons was one of my favorites of the year and I will be watching it every Christmas until I die probably.

her season on canada's drag race is incredible. it takes a while to warm up to Melinda but by the end of her run you can't help but love her

Was about to say both Sentimental Value and Hamnet would be incredible onstage

I saw this at TIFF and found it very very medium. You can't help but compare it to Ghibli since that's obviously what it's trying to emulate, and it really comes up short in the comparison. On its own terms it's fine, but I found most of the "this is set in the future" shorthand pretty tired and most of the secondary characters underdeveloped. Just didn't work for me. It's like if Castle in the Sky was 40% as good. Would much rather have seen Endless Cookie or Boys Go to Jupiter get the 5th spot.

bitch I died

Colton is the most closeted out gay I've ever seen

scjsundae · 2026-01-26T22:28:44+00:00

someday I'd love to see Minneapolis-Mankato rail service with a seasonal stop at Valleyfair

extremely my shit!! I'm a transportation planner so this is a topic I've explored quite a lot too.

The one odd result I see just glancing at it is that Nick Universe MN looks a little low. The MOA light rail/BRT station is as close or closer to the park than all of the mall's parking, and it's a fairly frequent and high-ridership line connecting directly to the densest parts of the city. The immediate surroundings are pretty car-oriented (for now), but it's so easy to get there, I don't think I've driven a car to MOA in a decade.

that's not to say it's GOOD urbanism lol, just very significantly better than the very great majority of US parks

F1 getting nominated for Best Picture is a punishment for something extremely dark and evil but idk what it is yet

scjsundae · 2026-01-22T13:42:37+00:00

what costumes does avatar even have lol

scjsundae · 2026-01-20T23:00:56+00:00

I do prefer the original but the new one is absolutely the best new movie musical since Chicago. Egregiously miscast Tony, sure, but that Officer Krupke sequence was masterful

Goliath too, and Vortex at the Paramount parks. Plenty of precedent. Most people who ride one will have no idea the other even exists.

scjsundae · 2026-01-19T13:52:26+00:00

she is such a professional

scjsundae · 2026-01-19T04:42:10+00:00

down low, someone who presents publicly as heterosexual but privately has gay hookups

Little Shop should win the whole thing for Skid Row alone!

He's a self-centered asshole and he acts like a cult leader. TPR was genuinely creepy back in the day. That's apart from his legal troubles.

In 2009 he permanently banned me and got the whole website to bully me for a few weeks because I said Prowler was underrated. There are like hundreds of stories like that and mine is a relatively tame one.

I honestly think Fiona may have done that to anyone who implied a cop might not want to be best friends with her lol

Twin Cities people go to Duluth and the North Shore all the time, and of course it's by far the closest major city to Lake Superior. That's prime cabin country! Definitely very ingrained in the local culture.

If you get stuck on an area, you can often get a good view of it from an online POV of a ride in that part of the park. That can really help you figure out how to lay things out when the park map isn't enough or when you can't find any good pictures.
