finished mine, only to lose it cuz of some unexplained glitch, which subsequently pissed me off, and made me pout ::sticks hands in pockets, and kicks away pebble in glum fashion::

happy to do the polling, if you'd like to take a break, lota! need an excuse to work on excel/python stuff. boring data sets about how many mm off a sample of bolts are from the pop mean isn't doing it for me... i like the ideas about changing up point distros and/or auto adding each person's #1 to ...

wanted to get to this one for the ‘12 poll, but couldn’t fit it in, so this is a good reminder!

*seen 16 (also voting perf > film, though top 4 above is pretty much in line with top 4 srk films overall, only sans trimurti, which i love, but has srk more in a supporting role)

ohhh we should do a handwriting thread (or just hijack this one, with nrh’s permission)! handwriting seems to say so much about a person; and strangely, the handwriting above seems like nrh... (ofc now it won’t turn out to be nrh’s handwriting, and i’ll have made yet another post that i’ll live to r...

whoops. i was jk’ing. sorry, flip. in hindsight, my post def needed more emojis to accentuate its brainless uselessness, i.e., i have nothing to contribute, and don’t know how i ended up here in the first place

agreed about the searchers. always seemed more discombobulated to me than morally complex. quite enjoy fort apache though. b&w ford > colour ford all day every day

sophie. was actually rec’d her stuff by a champ a few years back, on the shortlived discord

@kanafani robinhood rightfully catching major flak, so i think now's the time to start working on our finance app to fill what might become a big void! we can call it poolparty or something catchy that'll seem cool with this new young investor class (our little logo can be scrooge mcduck jumping int...

exactly. some low income dude who turned $100 into $5,000 isn't freaking out. it's only the assholes who turned $1bil into $50mil that are freaking out. and to that i say boofuckinghoo

an app named robinhood is restricting trading for the poor, in an effort to help out the rich... it's so ironic that it's like ironically ironic irony

perhaps not totally politics related but the fairly swift and obviously orchestrated crackdown on the financial subforums behind the recent short squeezes on gamestop and the like should be bigger news imo. a big bright shining blatant example of the self-serving and underhanded influence wielded by...

20min into mani ratnam's agni natchathiram, and i've already experienced enough drama for two weeks' worth of soap opera eps, not to mention the single most michael-jackson-circa-the-'80s-inspired choreographed dance routine ever. now we're talkin! (and this will get me up to seven mani's, almost en...

most consistently genre-defying tv show ever? maybe...? all i know is that watching the first 10min of a magnum pi ep, before promptly falling asleep, has become part of my bedtime routine

aakhri adaalat (rajiv mehra) sadly not list-worthy. idk probs didn't get the full effect, since i had to watch it in little bits and pieces over a couple weeks. and while it's got that cool bollywood style of action that looks like some teenagers took their parents' video camera to film lots of kick...

good god i wish i could be an editor for textbooks. love how simple, straightforward stuff gets turned into a fuckin cyoa book.

night of the demons (kevin s. tenney) list-worthy! strong night of the creeps/the return of the living dead vibes, with a little bit of carp's prince of darkness' slowburn buildup into relentlessness. even allots a few min in the middle for amelia kinkade to put on an impromptu dance routine like so...

started albert pyun's alien from la. so far, so good. and this one is actually from '88! pyun's ed wood gravitas might make this one the trash of the year for me. we'll see...

cherry 2000 (steve de jarnatt) darn. ultimately disappointing after the wonderfully frontloaded first 20min. once it shifts into mad max mode, it stays there. the delirious genre-jumping at the beginning all but disappears, and we're left with a low budget futuristic road movie. had a stuart gordon ...
