poo

They’ve always been called Demakes though

He’s such a disgusting greedy little pig boy who frankly belongs in a deep hole where nobody will find him 🙏

gravy seals

Lmfao

Eat the rich

There’s just so few decent FTP clients out there, and all of them are very ugly lol

I did notice that the only people not opting for WFH/hybrid at my last job were all the married-with-kids types who hated being around their family and used work as an escape. It was really sad to see lol

Not shitty at all! Cross training and backups are your employer’s problem, not yours. It may hurt you if you go on vacation or are sick, but it hurts them even more when you leave. Job security is job security and I’ll take it lol

Funnily enough I heard that internally they were talking about asking to have me come back as a contractor (with insane pay) but I was so much enjoying my time away from such a toxic company that nothing could make me return. I took a 7-month staycation after quitting just to unfuck how much they fucked up my brain, self-worth, and anxiety

Joke’s on them, I quit my 11-year job with a company enacting RTO and it fucked them over because I had no backups and very little cross training my entire time there. Ex-employees have told me things went to shit after I left. Good. 😂

One really oddly specific realization I made a few years ago.

First, they were filming The Last Of Us (season 1) in my city for a few days, on the street behind mine - the street was closed off to keep the crowds out and from the crowds making noise, but they couldn’t close my alley that lead into the street (through a parking lot) because it was the only way for cars in some of the buildings to leave. So the alley remained open and the parking lot connecting it to the filming location was open because they were going to have shots take place on it.

So it meant that while crowds were forming around both sides of the block trying to see into this street, I happened to notice that my back alley and the lot connecting it to the filming location were wide open, with only some lighting people and production assistants there. Since they couldn’t not let me be there in my own alley, I asked if I could stand quietly on the sidelines and watch the production because that interests me, and maybe I could get a glimpse of a dreamy Pedro Pascal (they said sure and I stood in the alley and moved when they had to film it).

Now unrelated, but a a year earlier, my spouse and I used a real estate agent to look for condos in the area, but A) didn’t like anything and B) didn’t like how pushy this agent was - she was loud and manipulative and kept trying to convince me that I liked something when I didn’t. We ended up ditching her and doing a private sale to buy the condo. She, in an email, called my husband “a man of no integrity” because she was pissy we didn’t earn her an easy commission I guess.

So the strangest moment of my life was standing in the alley nearly alone, when Ana Torv, Bella Ramsay, and Pedro Pascal start walking towards me and stop 10 feet away in the parking lot. They’re chatting and preparing to shoot a now-cut scene of them emerging from the parking lot onto the destroyed street. I just look like a production assistant because I’m the only onlooker there and am a little starstruck and just watching, when our attempted real estate agent, who has an office on my street and has no idea that filming is happening, or cares, walks through the alley screaming on her phone in the most loud and obnoxious voice. I just remember looking over and thinking “oh god, that stupid awful bitch is disturbing the filming” and when I turned back, Pedro Pascal was looking annoyed at her too because she was the loudest thing on set without knowing she was a disturbance.

Long story short, the strangest sentence I can truthfully construct is “Pedro Pascal and I were both pissed at my former real estate agent at the same time”

Diving or driving lol?

Yaaaas 2002 Solaris Team.

I do like both adaptations, but I really love how the 2002 version was handled and scored.

People who purchase anything from Tesla are just embarrassing lol. I cringe seeing the brand in public 🤣

Cope.

Wow, you must have lots of friends and be fun at parties, dick 😂🤣😂

Yeah it’s just such a simple and easy topic. Studios funnel all their money and focus into a genre that requires no creativity.

After Iron Man 2008, sure it was neat for a few years to see a “connected universe” but it’s a bit of a joke now…

That’s what makes me the most excited for auteurs like Francis Ford Coppola or Lynch or Aronofsky or Tarkovsky - I watch movies to be immersed and feel something, and blam-blam-boom-booms have just never done it for me.

I prefer film-as-art over film-as-entertainment I guess?

As an anxious person who hates sweaty games, I actually really enjoyed The Finals for a few months and even bought some DLC for shits and giggles. But it got old quickly and I entirely forgot it existed.

All of them. Can’t stand the superhero-dominated media market.

GREAT game!

There was a segment in the 2005 game “Condemned: Criminal Origins” where mannequins in a department store at night would only move (and surround you) when you weren’t looking. Scared the shit of me way back then.
