Wreckless Eric has a 2 chord song
This is vaguely a thing in Japan, but let’s not fall into the eastern mysticism trap, where Asian things are completely divorced from what goes on in the West. It’s sort of like saying America has the “fuck it, good enough” aesthetic worldview of accepting the imperfect things about the world.
Especially when it’s outside Zach’s usual style. I read SMBC and I didn’t recognize this as one of his.
I signed up for a gothic class my frosh year that was described as American gothic-- vampires, werewolves, all that good stuff. I dunno if the prof didn’t write the course description or if it got changed later but it was English gothic, which apart from the origins of the genre (Walpole, which ended up being hilarious because tons of modern tropes originated there, like the maiden in the castle using the subterranean staircase to flee from the mad king when a gust of wind blows her candle out) and some of the more satirical stuff (Austin), it was incredibly boring to read.
There was one called The Mysteries of Udolpho that’s this meme times 10, where during a wagon trip there are literal 30 page descriptions of tress. I get if we’d been warned that this sort of thing was largely historical and we could pretty much skip the sweeping depictions of scenery that only existed because most people in the 19th century didn’t get to travel much so it was exciting to read about exotic landscapes, but the assignment merely amounted to “Here’s a 650 page novel, go read it for next week.”
At least we got to do Frankenstein and I think there was one Poe story thrown in as well (despite being American).
Not sure why these articles are only coming out now. My work bought me a win11 computer a few months ago and I was surprised to learn that the first few things I downloaded to the desktop showed up on my one drive. I don’t really use the account I have on it for much, and it was easy enough to turn off in settings but it was still a shock.
Just another invasion of privacy by a giant corpo that none of its users asked for
So you can hang out with Margot Robbie?
At least we don’t usually do just numbers. In Japan I’ve been to a tourist attraction lake named 12. It’s also only about 90 minutes from 13.
Hard to tell in the various shots how much eruption has already taken place, but at least some of the lightning might be generated by the volcano itself. Static electricity from the erupting particles causes lightning, which is known as volcanic lightning or a dirty thunderstorm.

I like the PS2 ad that pretended to be a PS9 ad

Wasn’t that Ugly Americans? I was disappointed it didn’t get more seasons
I will
Proper English here needs a be verb: I’m Will
Just artifacting I think. There’s a slight yellow color in the middle of the bottom serifs of the h that is similar to other h’s and which isn’t present in the b’s
Alright pie, I’m just gonna do this, and if you get eaten it’s your own fault.
