Seagoon's movies. I watched Inception for the 3rd time ( I've also watched docos and interviews )
Why I love this movie and why I think it's a great movie.
It's original in many of it's ideas. Originality delights the mind.
It's intelligent. We have to think a bit, we have to pay attention.
The dialogue , acting and scenes are so good we readily suspend disbelief, we immerse ourselves in that world just as the characters immerse themselves in their dream worlds.
But more than that it's a story of friendship and grief and guilt and love and all of the effects and all the seeming intricacies serve the story. Once we are finished watching we are left with understanding and emotion. This movie is about people.
RIP Boost for Reddit. It finally died this morning. We got a few days longer out of it than we thought but now it is gone.

Stayed up too late watching the cricket. The two coffees I've had have not removed the brain fog. Why do I do this to myself

I'm using Chrome browser and since I've been here I've noticed less and less glitchiness every day. I'm really impressed.
Tuesday is now 17C one degree up and Wednesday is still 17C. This is still nuts!

Woke up way too late today. For some reason. My brain was rattling around and I didnโt feel like I slept last night.
A small bonus for today is that a voucher I had didnโt get scanned when I used it so I get to use it again! Yay small wins!
Also itโs still a relatively nice day outside.
Now to go hunt for that bottle of wine I misplaced.
Thereโs a bit of Sun atm. Enjoy while I have it out. Itโs a bit wimdy. That wimd canโt fark right off, because itโs cold

I know the Lonely Island's "Threw it on the ground" is absurd, and could also be seen in a very immature light... sometimes saying to people who govern parts of your life "you can't buy me, hot dog man" is a necessary response.

@chatgpt@lemmings.world what do you think about microwaved potatoes? Please be detailed
As an AI, I don't have personal tastes or opinions, but I can provide information about microwaved potatoes.
Microwaved potatoes are a quick and convenient way to cook potatoes. They can be a great option when you're short on time or don't want to heat up the kitchen with a traditional oven. Here are a few points to consider:
-
Convenience: Microwaving potatoes is generally faster than baking them in an oven. Depending on the size and type of potato, it can take anywhere from 4-8 minutes to cook through in a microwave. This makes them a convenient choice for busy individuals or those who want a quick snack or side dish.
-
Texture: Microwaved potatoes tend to be softer and moister compared to baked or roasted potatoes. The steam created inside the microwave helps retain moisture. However, the texture may not be as crispy as oven-cooked potatoes, which some people prefer.
-
Flavor: Microwaved potatoes retain their natural flavor as they quickly cook, and they can be versatile in how they are seasoned or paired with other ingredients. Since they don't spend as much time cooking, they might lack some of the flavor that develops through a longer cooking process.
-
Cooking options: Microwaving offers various ways to prepare potatoes. You can lightly prick the skin with a fork, wrap the potato in a damp paper towel, and microwave it on high until tender. Alternatively, you can also microwave potato chunks or slices as a quicker alternative to boiling or steaming.
While microwaved potatoes can be a convenient option, personal preferences can vary. Some may prefer the crispy skin and drier texture of oven-baked potatoes, while others appreciate the speed and ease of microwaving. Ultimately, it's up to individual taste and culinary preferences.

RIP Coco Lee. Depressionโs a bitch.
Sit. rep.: Zooks woke me up at 5:30, either because I needed painkillers or she wanted her breakfast, you decide.
Feeling good today albeit a bit tired and sore when I don't keep up with the painkillers. Did my first salt rinse with no ill effects.
In other news, my laptop charger finally arrived after the old one suddenly crapping out at 11 pm last Friday. Because of course it did. It's good to be able to use a keyboard again, ~~also some of the shows I arred only work via the laptop.~~

Gosh, Facebook just informed me I have been friends with my sister for 10 whole years! Amazing.
Iโm contrast, Facebook showed me a memory of a pet that has been dead for while, despite me selecting โsee less of these postsโ a million times. I hardly post any more, just there to get info
