I actually enjoyed myself. It certainly is about the limit of what I can turn my brain off to but it reminded me a lot of Kong Skull Island which I enjoy

Hero Italian Rescue Dog Murdered

An Italian sniffer dog was killed after eating sausages filled with nails that were thrown into his kennel, his trainer has said. Bruno, a seven-year-old bloodhound, had been hailed as a hero for finding nine missing people during his career, and was once honoured by Italy's prime minister.
Pretty warm but not hot if it’s cooler outside. Refreshingly slightly warm in the summer
She said in an interview she was 16
Been staying in a lot of hotels recently. They’re all over the place
I mean, I can figure it out. Some of these showers are just opaque though.

My parents’ shower had 3 handles. None of which are labeled
Not every shower handle has red and blue/hot and cold.

I’m saying at a nice hotel. Has nothing.

The range is you turn left from 7 PM to midnight to turn the shower on. Obviously the higher north you went, the hotter it got. Till it didn’t. And then didn’t turn back cold again for 10 minutes.
How the frick have we not standardized how shower handles work?

For crying out loud, life’s too short to have to spend 5 minutes fiddling around with a strange shower to get the right temperature.

Might I recommend “Walkabout” for those unfamiliar with her…work.

Eh, the movie where she was infamously underage? I wouldn’t recommend that.
I mean, American Werewolf is one of my favorite movies of all time but I still love American Werewolf in Paris. It’s a fun late 90s early 2000s sex comedy take on werewolves and it’s awesome
Depends on what type of producer you are and what type of film is being made I think
No. Doctor gave me a clean bill of health recently too.
Sounds like this law would cover very specific use. I.E. you cannot purposefully use images of people to represent them incorrectly. Thats a very specific use case

I was doing a leg press. I did add more weight than I have in the past but not a ton more. Here’s the thing. I could do the exercise at the weight. I felt fine doing it from a leg strength perspective. But I did feel weird in a hard to describe way. No pain or discomfort but definitely felt like a bodily response. Like there was a perception of weight on my shoulders even though I did t actually feel anything. After I released the third set I briefly got foggy which is worrying.

But I’m not sure what caused it. The weight should be fine. I actually was regretting not doing more reps.

Holy shite, so many spiders

I grew up on the coast. I’m used to large spiders. I was not prepared for the huge amount of spiders I saw along the trail.

Not going to lie, even though I know the spiders probably couldn’t do much harm (not super dangerous to people I believe) it was still super stressful. Made the trail seem like an obstacle course.

I think my arachnophobia I had when I was a toddler is rekindled
Kerry Condon is such a cutie pie. She’s so sweet. And she has that strong Irish husky accent. Most of the movie I was smitten by her.

I don’t generally like sports movies. With that said, I’m a huge F1 guy so I was curious.

I thought the movie did a fairly ok job at doing what it wanted to. It’s fairly generic and predictable but accomplishes what it set out to. It’s one of the best looking movies. There’s a lot of great camerawork to make the action feel visceral. Seeing it in imax, the race commentary during the race played from the back of the theater where all the rest of the sound came from the front. Very interesting effect. Now I did find the commentary a little pandering but more on that below.

And the pacing of the movie was great.

Joshua was really too unlikable at first. I know they’re trying to show his growth but way to one the nose.

Now the actual formula one stuff. I think it’s fascinating some of the sessions they made. Like mind boggling. I know they have to simplify things for the general audience and they generally do a great job of it. But some of the insinuations of the actual rules and racecraft is a bit tough for me to swallow. Now most people won’t be bothered by that, fair enough.

I also thought using real drivers was oddly distracting. I think the cars/livery was from 3 seasons ago and there’s been a lot of shakeup in teams so it feels dated.

Also, Lewis Hamilton is a producer. And the end of the movie takes place in Dubai. Feel like there was some 2021 Dubai thoughts that went into the writing of that scene.

Don’t overthink it. It’s an observation.

Well, it was a bit awkward for me as they’re wheel by when I stood up and grabbed my legs and stretched muttering “leg day is brutal,”

Also, there is a direct window directly to the west side basket where if your using the leg extension machine, your staring at them. The irony hit me and that’s why I started this thread
