POPE FRANCIS DEAD AT 88, THE VATICAN HAS ANNOUNCED. 🚨🚨🚨
It’s pretty crazy how the Pope dies on Easter Monday, just hours after meeting with JD Vance…
If you think about it, it is actually awfully prophetic that the day after we celebrate Jesus rising from the dead, the Pope… pic.twitter.com/QtEoV2ypsi
I've since determined last night that this needs to be shortened by 1 frame. With this adjustment, the total duration of the film before the credits appear becomes: 2:20:23:07. I'm dumbfounded that I didn't catch this, and this confirms the intentionality of the timing. https://t.co/S5BHNI6uU3pic.twitter.com/FDpAJ5MUdj
I knew it was going to work, but just how potent I was still uncertain. As with all Kubrick Forwards and Backwards films—it not only changes your entire perspective of the film, but it confirms suspicions in the plot that have always naturally risen within. pic.twitter.com/UtBfwB7t1i
Richard, it’s unbelievable the level of deceit from our govt before/after 9/11. How many of our young military members lost their lives because of lies? People should be held responsible
Why go through all of this effort when only the smallest subset of his viewers would ever go through the lengths to reproduce this? Does this technique unknowingly affect the subconscious of the viewer? Did we all know deep down that this perfection exists just below the surface? pic.twitter.com/ZW7tnN0ZAF
But part of me considers it futile when thinking back to an interview of Stanley Kubrick's where he says, "How do you explain a Bethoven symphony? You can't. You experience it." https://t.co/NYuO5tXH1Lpic.twitter.com/dSPJek8Iu8
A year ago Maiden crossed the finish line of a gruelling 33,000 miles and became the the FIRST all-female crew crew to EVER WIN an around the world race. Don't remember it? Maybe they should have worn make up and tight fitting blue jumpsuits….… @maidenfactor#SaveWomensSportspic.twitter.com/WHe3Kt30wK
Asmongold backs up his viral “parent(s) of trans kids are mentally ill” take and adds small clarification
“Could also be a school, not always the parents..but there’s an adult with a mental illness in your life..this is like a 90/10 issue..everybody fu*king thinks this” pic.twitter.com/ADnSm2IsIa
I haven’t written in a while, as I’ve been mostly leaving it to Clicky to fill the LoL’s shelves; however, I thought I’d share an interaction with Grok!, the AI engine on X, that I had earlier today. Actually, it was about Clicky’s latest post…
… X now has a feature where the user can hit a button and ask Grok! to explain any particular post. What would it make of the gif I’d chosen to illustrate Clicky’s latest post’s title? It’s not something I’d thought of doing before but I have had a couple of interesting convos recently with Grok! – one about how various commodities shaped the City of London…
*…/drag… I started with sugar because of a tweet, but Grok! kept suggesting other commodities to consider, so I kept on clicking… /exhales plume of smoke…*
… And the other about language…
*For 12 years I lived at ‘Slippers Place’ in Bermondsey… /taps ash… Makes ya fink…*
… Anyway, on a whim, I decided to ‘click’ the button and ask Grok!…
*Oh, so Letitia James stole ‘male, pale & stale’ from David Cameron, who’d nicked it from NASA. What is it with politicians and stealing? … /shakes head… *
… ‘Knitting and lifestyle’?! What? What was Grok! talking about; I’ve never knitted in my life! Mum used to knit. She was a prolific knitter, Dear Reader. All our cardies, jumpers, hats and gloves as kids were knitted by mum. I have very fond memories of her loopy cardigans and of a particular red and white checkered top she knitted that now makes me think of Croatia. And dolls clothes; my Barbie’s outfits were bespoke one-offs, knitted by Jude…
*Yeah, I see that now, Clicky – Grok! linked to a different Roobeedoo. But I didn’t see that at the time…*
… Perplexed, I asked Grok! the first thing that came into my head…
*Well, the French Revolution was a Fourth Turning for the Frogs… /final drag… and a shambles is a slaughterhouse… /stubs butt… I mean, I like your Fourth Turning Tales and shambles, Clicky, but I’ve never knitted…*
*’become compact or consolidated’?… /thinks… I heard that or words to that effect only yesterday…*
*Yes! What we refer to as ‘syncs’, Clicky, Clif High is calling ‘qualia’. Perhaps I am a knitter after all…*
