Finally!! This movie NEVER comes up but I absolutely love Peggy Sue Got Married (1986). Fucking classic and he's great in it.

Okay he's not the lead but he's like the main co-star.

Love love love this movie

I grew up on well water that smelled like sulfur and was sometimes unsafe to drink.

The water fountains at school were HEAVILY chlorinated.

Water just wasn't really an option growing up or if it was you had to mask the taste with Koolaid or something.

I don't crave it. I'm not in the habit of drinking plain water. I have a zero water system now and I drink it a lot more but some people either have an access issue or never developed the habit due to similar factors as me.

People dressing up as handmaids from The Handmaid's Tale are typically dressed that way as a form of protest against the conditions that would lead to Handmaid's Tale becoming a reality. Which is typically anti-Christian nationalism but can also include anti-MAGA/Trump which ...the lines there are blurry at best.

The "No Kings" protest was anti-Trump. Do with that what you will.

ITT: no cult scholars. I am not one either.

I watch a lot of Knitting Cult Lady's content and I've read her book. From that I have a pretty good idea of what a cult is, which is an extreme form of group.

So I guess the opposite of a cult would be a solitary individual.

One point I keep seeing in these comments is religion. Religion isn't a cult, it's an idea. That ideology can be used by cults, but the idea itself isn't a cult. You can believe the idea all by yourself you don't HAVE to be part of the group.

Yes [insert religious group you're thinking of] is probably a cult. But it isn't one because of the idea, it's one because of controlling behavior and exploited labor and a bunch of other reasons.

Game on the right but that's because my right monitor is the good monitor. The left one is a glorified TV.

I went kayaking for my third time ever, first of this year. It was fun, the lake was nice with very little wind. I was solo and a little nervous but I took safety precautions and it all worked out.

In chronological order

  1. Breakout
  2. Oregon Trail
  3. The Secret of Monkey Island
  4. Sonic Spinball
  5. FF8

There are so many more but these were all big moments. Ugh I didn't even mention the IBM golf game or Carmen San Diego, I think I need to do this list based on the systems we had.
