“When you think of the incentive structure [in #politics] right now to get your name out, it’s about people who want to throw rocks & create controversy… People who work & toil away to pass common sense, good, bipartisan legislation that actually helps people’s lives? That doesn’t get press.” politico.com/news/2024/10/13/g…

Cheesy meme. BUT that's pretty much how I directed my plays!
in reply to Muse

Not a film director! I wear a t-shirt that says: "If all the world's a stage, why don't I have better lighting!"
in reply to Muse

I remember one director, really cool and fun person. She would run back and forth on the backs of the audience seats and would often forget to speak in English (she also directed for El Teatro Campesino in San Juan Bautista - think of the tower in the movie Vertigo.)

in reply to Muse

Our garden is kinda overrun by wild critters. (Our most recent discovery is a nest of bats in one of our walls - we will need to put up a bat-house on that wall and then somehow tempt them to make the move.

always good stuff from Wires
not recommended for areas of high fire danger/snakey areas but there are still a few things one can do (ditch the pond, keep the birdbath) 😀

I thought I was having a truly unsatisfactory day until I remembered the Erfurt Latrine Disaster, a textbook case of how things really could be worse. Think about this whenever you think things have gone to shit.

10 Facts About Finland That Sound Made Up

There are many fantastic things about Finland to report, and you can find thousands of articles devoted to them. But there's also many weird and wonderful Finnish facts that don't enjoy such wide coverage. So, here at Very Finnish Problems, we're counting down ten of our favourites.

in reply to Muse

My Finnish step dad brought the love of cultured milk and delicious secret Finnish family recipes. You'll never see a sad Finnish person.


Hey #believeinfilm friends,

Did you see the northern lights yesterday?

A solar storm made the aurora borealis visible in Vancouver, where I live, and even in places south of that, like Toronto. I photographed the lights on film with my Canon F-1 and a roll of CineStill 800T.

More hi-res photos: analog.cafe/r/shooting-norther…

Not bringing a digital camera was one of the best decisions of the night. Film is the best way to capture this event.

#filmphotography #photography #northernlights #aurora

in reply to Dmitri ☕️

I don't know if it was visible where I live, but I only learned about it while it was happening, again, so I missed it either way.


Steam now says the ‘game’ you’re buying is really just a license theverge.com/2024/10/11/242678…
in reply to The Verge

This was always the case, they're now being forced to be more honest about it.
