I'll never not enjoy seeing Luke Ayling gamboling upfield.

Ok, maybe I wouldn't enjoy it vs #lufc but, otherwise, that distinctive gait of his is just very nostalgic 🥲

Deep Sense of Creeping DreⱯd 2024

@devedy.bsky.social

non-spoiler Hathaway 2 thought - the way the robot action is directed in this movie is really interesting. They do a lot more to emphasize the robots as big, kind of lumbering machines. The sense of scale of the robots themselves relative to small human settlements and large open spaces is potent

In my many ponderings through time I have considered many and multifarious topics. Why on earth are razor blades so expensive? I use a double-bladed razor and the blades are so much more inexpensive than the cartridge versions...and cut much cleaner...alum stone or styptic pencil on standby.

That’s one pile of branches shredded.
One more to go.

And also our intrepid heroine learns the value of wearing gloves. She was already wearing them at the time, but this served to underscore that fact.

So Becerra, Hilton, and Steyer didn't bother to fill in voter candidate statements. I don't see any of their bios or statements in the Official Voter Information Guide.

Turns out these folks WANT to inundate you with ads so that you're sick of them when it's election day. They CHOSE to flood you.
