Filler due to upcoming Holiday: a few tweets by me I wish to memorialize:
If you ever think your idea is too dumb to offer up to the world, remember: there are MULTIPLE times in human history when a person said, out loud, “I know. Let’s do a post-apocalyptic movie about a bloodsport based on roller derby.”

In all things, be as bold as Toto, shoving the words “Kilimanjaro”, “Olympus” and “Serengeti” into a single line.

I just want to remind people: I know “The kessel run in 12 parsecs” has been canonized as a shortcut… But Han is literally answering the question, “Is your ship fast?”
It’s not a shortcut. The “He’s just tossing out random space jargon to impress the rubes” is the right read— L. Ross Raszewski (@lraszewski) November 6, 2019
Look, I’m not saying it’s IMPOSSIBLE, but if a rich white straight man claims to be the victim of hate speech, and you assume he is actually presenting a bad-faith argument to silence reasonable critics, you will never ever be wrong.

I’m glad that opportunities to use the word “polycule” don’t come up that often for me, because I am pretty sure I’d misplace the word and say “polyglot” instead and then wouldn’t I look ridiculous.

I just want to reiterate: there are many things wrong with this movie, but FAR AND AWAY the worst is that at no point does anyone say, “It’s daylight saving time!”

what’s movie the last one referring to
Looks like the twitter embed is being finnickey. It’s ‘Sunshine’, a movie in which a team of astronauts has to nuke the sun. Basically the same movie as “The Core” but inside-out.
Ooooh I love The Core I’ll go order this one on Netflick DVD then.
