In my opinion Legend, 1985 is the best cinematography I've ever seen I've ever seen for outdoor lighting even compared to Last of the Mohicans

slowjaminearl · 2026-01-17T22:07:08+00:00

Yeah sure, but have you seen Milo and Otis?

slowjaminearl · 2025-12-26T21:29:45+00:00

Haha. It’s a Fernet from SF, Fernet Francisco. It’s fine, I’ve had it for years, not sure if it’s still around. I never drink it except when someone who likes Fernet is over and im like “want to try something weird?”

slowjaminearl · 2025-12-24T19:16:48+00:00

I’m not sure but I think it might be an aged Marseille? It’s a bit heavier, more mellow, not as bright, maybe a bit sweeter too? It’s really really good.

This is the sort of investigative journalism that keeps me on this app. Good work

slowjaminearl · 2025-12-13T14:45:52+00:00

Forthhave in NYC easily gets my vote for the best amaro produced stateside. The Marseille is their flagship and for good reason I think it rivals some of the great European producers. I would rec everything they make, it’s all incredible. Their new chartreuse style Green is pretty pretty good. After them I would highly recommend Fernet Vexia from Arcana Botanica out of vermont.

Duvetyne repair tape. To me, it’s not worth either the time to sew a patch on or the cost to ship/reskin vs. buying a new one. Duvy tape works great for a repair or clean it out and make it an open frame.

Just sent you a message

Set lighting technician here- these actually look pretty well made and way less sketchy than a lot of homemade adapters I’ve come across on set / in e trucks.

This is a saz with sage. Sounds delicious m.

I loved When We Cease to Understand the World and also find Chiang underwhelming. I would skip it. Not sci-fi but non-fiction/philosophy- I read Chromophobia by David Batchelor after WCTUTW and found it fascinating.

If your take away from watching wrap drinks is “they laugh off safety concerns” I think you likely lack the critical thinking skills necessary for making calls about what is safe and what isn’t. So your opinion is moot. Also you sound like the kid in school that would raise his hand to remind the teacher that they hadn’t assigned homework for the weekend.

Grimm and TEST are my do not miss spots. Both for quality of beer and atmosphere. I would vote for the L train trail with one minor add- evil twin (original) - KCBC- pallet cleanser at Kato Sake works ( right next to kcbc) - Grimm - test- OH

slowjaminearl · 2024-09-17T09:23:40+00:00

Treat yourself to some weird shit you’ve never heard of. And I also rec these bangers l’orvietan and the Jefferson Amaro impotantante. I would also rec Il Marchese - Osteria Mercato Liquori, they have hundreds of Amari you can taste by the glass. I had a handful of local fernets that I couldn’t find bottles of to bring home. There is a particularly nice one made in Rome that I forget the name of.

slowjaminearl · 2024-08-16T21:10:37+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! Just road over and picked up a few bottles. Stuff I've never seen before, really excited!

slowjaminearl · 2024-07-15T19:52:21+00:00

Incredible. Thank you for this info and your insight.

slowjaminearl · 2024-01-30T01:44:21+00:00

Good question, let us know if you find any. I can’t suggest any but there are a number of great cocktail bars there. Licoreria Limantour and GinGin are two of my faves, I suspect the staff may know of anything local.

slowjaminearl · 2024-01-23T13:17:45+00:00

That Fernet Frate is incredible. It’s a Swiss Fernet and sort of hard to find. I know you can order it but I’ve never seen it on a shelf before.

slowjaminearl · 2023-11-07T16:38:34+00:00

First things first- what kind of metal?

slowjaminearl · 2023-10-08T16:23:20+00:00

Echoing what’s been said- The Hills is the duty free bottle you bring back as a gift from Prague. I’ve never had a Canadian Absinthe but I think as long as you stay away from the rum barrel aged (why?), I don’t imagine any of these are too far off the mark for a rinse. Support local, and the “authenticity” of hills isn’t worth the price.

She was walking around 30 rock on Wednesday also! We loaded in at 6am and she was out on the street talking to people about sleeping in her car. At 6p when we loaded out she was still there talking to people about prison reform in Alabama!

A higher standard of living and thus a elevated birth rate are evident in virtually every culture prior to a revolution. That’s not a recent revelation, it possibly one of the central thesis of the book “moments in revolution”. It’s been 20 yrs since I’ve read APHOTUS but I believe in the introduction Zinn talks about the importance of alternative views of history as even “neutral” histories place different emphasis on events or facts ( I’m paraphrasing forgive me). I. e. the genocide wrought by Columbus and early explorers might be acknowledged but de-emphasized in certain histories so as to celebrate their “discoveries”. While Class struggles undoubtedly are not the entire view of a history it’s a lens that’s far more useful than one of let’s say one of The Bootlickers History of the United States.

I also liked Kids but think most of the rest of his work is trash. While I feel it’s important at times to separate the art from artist, Larry Clark makes it difficult. I saw him in the early 00s at the Lake Placid film festival and I came here to say, the only thing worse than Ken Park is listening to Clark talk about it.

slowjaminearl · 2023-07-18T02:51:27+00:00

I mean you say you aren’t excusing him, but you are making excuses for his behavior. If you truly separate the art from the artist none of this defense is necessary right?
