The Long Walk was as good a movie as it was a book. Loved it. #cinema #TheLongWalk
@judy2k @martiell Two nuns are driving through Transylvania when Dracula appears on the bonnet and starts trying to smash the windscreen.
"Quick!" yells the nun driving. "Show him your cross! Show him your cross!"
The other nun rolled down her window, leaned out, and screamed "Get off my fucking car you vampire bastard!"

The Guardian: Why do some gamers invert their controls? Scientists now have answers, but they’re not what you think

A new school year is here, so today's post is for the chemistry teachers out there!
I've mapped as many of my chemistry infographics as possible to various classroom topics. Some offer straightforward explanations or visualisations of concepts, while others provide interesting contexts or historical background.
It's all available to download in a free PDF here: https://wp.me/p4aPLT-8Ty
My wife is on a stained glass kick recently and this #Godzilla is amazing.
I love the fire everywhere, atomic breath, and the textured glass for its body.

🚨 Google is killing Android freedom.
Starting 2027, unverified apps can’t be side-loaded.
➡️ F-Droid harder to install
➡️ Custom APKs blocked
➡️ Google decides what runs on YOUR phone
Google’s Android is becoming Apple: Your device, their rules.
It’s time to switch to open alternatives: Graphene, Calyx, Lineage. ✊

When I see people who aren't concerned about their data and #privacy in general, I get angry. Specially when they say, “I don't have anything to hide”. It's like you have to have something to hide to care.
A regular website, these days, shares your data with 500+ other websites and data exchanges.
If your data weren't relevant to them, they wouldn't jump through hoops and try to find loopholes to steal your data.
Grow the fuck up and pull your head out of your ass before it's too late
Oh my goodness... John Rhys-Davies' Wikipedia page led me to the acapella powermetal band Van Canto. I am now obsessed!

Blessing your timeline (because I just rewatched it) 😀 (Lip Sync Battle between Zendaya and Tom Holland)
Played a cool boardgame called We Forlorn Few by the Aussie company Knife Edge Games. We got stuck on a rule and a mate went to the net for the answer. I went to the rule book, found the FB link and within 5 mins the maker responded to my message! Such customer service 💚 "Betray your friends, sacrifice your companions, or turn ravenous to become the new threat." https://www.knifedgegames.com/products/we-forlorn-few #WeForlornFew #KnifeEdgeGames
