@cjd "Just imagine, you could pass down this Shake-A-Weight to your great grandson."
@cjd It's weird, but I think it's best to wait for a technology/gadget to mature through market iterations before making it long lasting. Those principles are good, but it's hard to figure out how much better things could be if they're good enough and still work. Guns are a pretty good example of what you're talking about too.
@corceeeee @MisterRogersSnapped I loved that book as a kid, but yes 1/3rd of it is listing sea creatures.
@kf It’s not literature, but the show Alone usually portrays this pretty accurately and season 1 in the show 10000 BC comes to mind. If any of the winners of Alone have published books, I’m sure they covered it.
#Fedivision announcement!
The Fedivision Song Contest (#FSC) will accept entries until Friday, 28th midnight CEST, so we have enough time to find collaborators if needed (#FedivisionCollab), come up with beautiful songs for the fictional country or faction you would like to represent.
Also, we won't run into scheduling troubles with this other music contest named #ESC.
\o/
Spread the word, have fun! I'm looking forward to the weekend of the 29th/30th when voting will take place!
DOUZE POINTS!
@sinbach The Woolworth sit-ins during the Civil Rights Movement.
@MaryMamuzich I can’t remember if I noticed Morgan Freeman first in that or Miss Daisy, but yes good film!
Just re-watched Bicentennial Man with the Misses and it got so much right! I spent a fair bit of my childhood in the upper part of a movie theatre being an assistant projectionist and, even though the place is torn down now, my love of movies remains. Some movies have this re-watchable quality and power about them and they seem to be able to shape and improve lives. Out of the absolute sea of media that we have today, what movies would you save and consider a benefit to posterity?
