Christopher Moore
Posted by LoveThatMoney on 5/23/26 at 7:44 pm
I have now read three books by Christopher Moore.
Lamb
Fool
Shakespeare for Squirrels
Lamb is one of the best comedies I’ve ever read, with honest laugh out loud moments that bookend biblical stories and ideas to make reading about Christ both thought provoking and enjoyable (in particular, the middle years that no one really talks about).
Fool is also wonderful. It introduces Pocket of Dog Snogging, jester to the court of King Lear, and is a send up of the play King Lear that is riotous and vile and gross and hilarious.
Shakespeare for Squirrels is another book following Pocket, this time in a send up of Midsummer Night’s Dream. It is a little less funny than Fool but by the end I couldn’t continue to read it because I was laughing too hard and had to take a few beats to regain my senses.
All in all, I highly recommend them as they are all wonderful, especially Lamb.
Anyone else read these silly, very adult books?

His approval ratings are what they are, but he definitely still has a stranglehold on the GOP’s nuts.
Neither party is popular right now and I don’t see that changing for some time.
Never been a more ripe time for a third party, but that will ultimately fail, as it always has.

Not taking it personally. Just calling out the tomfoolery rampant in your OP and the obvious impact AIPAC has when it throws millions at a campaign.

No, research clearly shows that isn’t the case.

The truth is he consistently went at Trump in interviews and on social media which turned off a lot of people who support the president.
No doubt. Also turned on a lot of people who supported the president and no longer do or who flat out never have supported Trump. It’s a give and take.

You’re out of your mind.

Well, when AIPAC creates AI generated videos of Massie going hand in hand to check into a hotel with AOC and Ilhan Omar, the 60 and 70 year olds are gonna get their walkers out for a midterm.
So, presumably his constituents voted, but let’s not pretend that AIPAC’s funding and tactics didn’t have anything to do with it. There’s a reason they dump literal millions of dollars into a congressional race in bumfrick Kentucky and it isn’t because it doesn’t fricking work.

Jesus. Did the studio bury this movie?
It isn’t playing anywhere here and it came out last weekend.

Absolutely. Great story without over explaining things and I was constantly like "oh he's doing that because of this!!" and my son even picked up on it. Of course my wife (God bless her) was completely clueless and we kept using to explain what everything meant to her. Love a movie that doesn't talk down to the audience
It does a bit and that’s fine. It is needed.
The book is phenomenal. What they were able to do in 2.5 hours with that material is insane. I suggest reading the book, but the movie captures it pretty damn well.

This Board has discussed About Time in the past, but I agree it’s a wonderful movie.
This Board is tough to find movies that less than ten percent have seen. But I bet the overall population has seen very few of these movies and About Time is one of those I doubt they’ve seen.
Just thought of these:
Atonement,
which was fairly popular.
And
Never Let Me Go
Which was not super popular.
I haven’t hated an antagonist the way I hated the one in Atonement in a long time. And Never Let Me Go is heartbreaking.

I started to read it last night and came to the conclusion that Nolan and the studio need to pipe this shite down asap.
This is only making people want to see it less.

re: Julia Doyle of the From TV series kinda has a Sydney Sweeney vide (NSFW)
Posted by LoveThatMoney on 5/14/26 at 9:05 am to carhartt
The first picture of her reminds me of Sydney Sweeney when she gets that serious or mad look. They both kind of set their lips like that, I think.
But otherwise, she’s better looking than Sydney Sweeney.
When I scrolled down, I was floored by her actual appearance.
