Endless Ends

[SalaciousMonkey22]

I enjoy B sci-fi and horror. They are just so relaxing.

Now I find myself wading through E and F films, which I can't even make it through.

Disheartening.

Curating a circle of critics I trust has been crucial. Letterboxd is the only social media app I genuinely appreciate

I've not heard of Letterboxd. I'll check it out.

Also podcasts for B-movies, there are lots with reviews and conversations that can lead you to want to see the movies. I thought I had seen every 1980-1983 slasher films until I started listening to horror movie podcasts about them. There are literally hundreds I have not seen.

For sure! The VHS years were wild.

I texted my oldest friend a couple weeks ago to ask how the fuck we missed this gem

Still haven’t seen it but it’s on my list.

I’ve never heard of this one, looks like it’s worth a look.
Why is it in the 1980’s everyone in the post-apocalypse turned punk when punk had already happened?

If you made a post-apocalyptic movie today, would everyone become Nuclear Hipsters?

I wish! I’d totally watch a cult of Mumford and Sons and Lumineers drive the wasteland with their suspenders and silly hats.

But I think so many b-movie makers are just trying to recreate the 80’s trash rather than build upon it

Though, not quite the same but you ever seen Six String Samurai? That had rockabilly as well as metalhead gangs

I want to see the scene where the Lumberjack Hipster gets dirt on his $200 “work boots” and freaks out!

“Do you know how limited these are?!?! I had to skin 50 people to make them! They’re human suede!”

All this makes a recent conversation on gratuitous nudity in slasher films seem tame.

I’d pay money to see a bunch of hipsters get wasted.

But only if there’s also beach bunnies and gratuitous nudity.

Companion or opposing word pairs, like:

-immigrant vs emigrant
-tributary vs distributary

It’s surprising to me how often I only know one of the pair. I learned of emigrant sometime in the last few years and distributary last week!

I am now wondering if there are any good vocabulary expansion classes.

 

[Endless_Night]

My weekend was wildly unproductive.

As in I took naps both days.

However, not only has this very loooooong summer come to an end, some spectacular news came my way last week.

So.

(Since gifs are no longer postable.)

Enny, anything that results in such celebratory moves demands an explanation !!

Just, it turns out I don't have to do something that I thought I was going to have to do, that I really didn't want to do.

*squeals*

I remember people wearing those in the 80s.

- would everyone become Nuclear Hipsters?

I googled hoping to find a picture of whatever these were.

To no avail.

Did you know you can remove double-sided tape with dental floss?

Nighter do I.

Whoever said that is A LIAR.

My posts tend to run that way.

T'was a chaotic summer. Super busy, much obligation, people juggling, and stress. And mechanical issues. Like, one day a couple oof week ago I was mowing on the Zero and smelled fire. My presumption was that someone had a burn pile going.

It was me.

I was on fire.

Or at least the Zero.


Fortunately the SO was home. He took a look, plunked down a string of incomprehensible words - the upshot being he order a couple of parts and had it up and running in a couple of days.

You know, that kind of thing. Continuously.

However. *moment of suspense*

Things seem to have settled. No crisis for nearly two weeks! I feel certain things have turned a corner.

In celebration I am having a glass of Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque in one of its companion pretty little glasses with the hand-painted flowers.

Okay. Maybe two glasses.

I might be somewhat impaired.

Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque

Isn’t that the guy who wrote Planet of the Apes?

No he was in Life Aquatic.

Yes.

No he was in Life Aquatic.

They're cousins.

Also, I have a teensy teensy-weensy headache.

 

[Endless_Night]

So. I do still have some outside stuff to do. Because it's endleeeeeeeess.

However, today I start planning closets.

I am. So. Excited.

My clothes! I've been living out of boxes for forever.
