I love this one because it looks like Rikers got Bohemian Rhapsody blasting over the sound system and everyone’s just headbanging along.

Ok I’ve done some exploratory reading and I’m now even more confused but I’m confident that something in here is seriously interesting.
Can anybody point me in a direction towards a more pop-sci description for a non-physicist?

For movies: Little Amélie or the Character of Rain.
Watched as part of our trying to see all the best animated movies nominees.
Truely beautiful movie, touching and bittersweet. Not a chance in hell against K-Pop Demon Hunters but well worth your time.
For TV:
My partner and I are rewatching The West Wing and are currently slogging through the 5th season. Only sticking with it because I know once the next campaign starts in season 6 it really cooks again but man this Sorkinless season isn’t really very good. Also honorary mention for Wonder Man which I watch last week but didn’t mention. What a great character piece Ben Kingsley and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II are top notch and it’s not like anything else in superhero or Hollywood stories. And I’m amazed at the social commentary in it.

Honestly “regular conservative people” are too embarrassed by the racist morons to be conservatives anymore. If you still identify with the conservative movement today you are a racist moron.

Typical Boomer Doomerism. It’s all hopeless and we should all give up and die eh?

 

I know I could Google it but I reckon y’all would have better and funnier takes.

Oh hey now don’t go being reasonable. Didn’t you get the memo? We’re all just supposed to throw up our hands and say nothing is going to happen and then just sit here being angry but not active. /s

I saw Garbage live at in the early aughts at Festival. As a band they blew me away, and as a woman she provoked the most intense scarousal I’ve ever felt in my life. Amazing photo.

Do you not understand how dramatic storytelling works? Did you stop reading To Kill a Mockingbird because it’s racist to have an innocent black man accused of murder?

This is actually an interesting question that depends a lot on a human perspective and what you define as ‘Generally Blue’ and what’s else is in the container.
I personally would define generally blue as when you have two colours, say red and blue M&Ms, and you reach in the container to pull out 3 you have a 50/50 chance of pulling out three blues. This definition would require that you have 79.58% blue M&Ms in your container.
Honestly this sounds like a bit high to me but probably can be a real bitch, and the test sounds secure to me. Physiological I think 2/3 blue 1/3 red would have most people say it’s generally blue and the ratio would go down as you add other colours. I think 1/2 blue and 1/2 a mix of 4 or more colours people would still say it’s generally blue.

In some states in the US yes.

 

Hey Lemmings,
I’ve just finished up the second of John Scalzi’s Lock-In novels and I’m looking for some recommendations for some new books in the same vein. I’ve enjoyed a bunch of sci-fi mysteries like The Murderbot series, the I Robot novels, even Niven’s ARM stories. So throw me some more like that if you can.

Seriously LA Theater people I am disappointed. It would make for an amazing viral video.

 

Ok, Lemmy, let's another play a game!

And I honestly think this one’s more important.

Post how many languages in which you can say Please and Thank You, including your native language. If you can, please provide which languages and how to phonetically say them so the rest of us can learn!

I spent a fair amount of bopping around Europe in the early Aughts and as a native English speaker, I found everyone appreciating my bad mangled attempts at politeness.
