Dude Points (what do I do now)
@dudepoints.fun
I liked Eurovision (You may also know me as @anngav)
I respect the art of this poster, but if you’re going to call your movie WILDWOOD those birds should be seagulls chasing after that kid to steal a slice of Mack’s Pizza. Oh, and “from the hands that made Coraline” needs to be displayed on a plane banner flying in the background
ToonHive@toonhive.bsky.social · 10h agoA new poster for Laika’s ‘Wildwood’ has been released. In theaters on October 23rd.
Going to stop having autism now that ANYONE can have it. I mean, what's next? Endometriosis patients being taken seriously?
Elsa Williams@elsawilliams.bsky.social · 9h agoHear me out. What if autism was magnetically attracted to me?
Summer is my busiest work period and I cannot take one more person telling me about the importance of taking time off to rest and recharge in summer because when do you think this work gets done?
am so unable to concentrate I submitted a ODS proposal because it's August and ODS proposals are open so don't forget to submit yours (also if you need a LL referral HMU)
I am not saying I am having trouble concentrating but this is my third one of these today and I am drinking them just for the placebo effect
I read this article and my main question after reading is: are 25-40 year olds really listening to Stereolab in such large numbers?
Dan O’Sullivan@osullyville.bsky.social · yesterdayNope, nice try. Not doing this to myself. You'll have to kill my ass
Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.
Marvel doesn't need to keep making movies with the exception of the Spider-Man films. Just saw Brand New Day and it made me cry.
Have macgyvered this with some velcro in the meantime and it is a little weird but is operating like a phone keyboard should. Now I just need to figure out all the shortcuts
Dude Points (what do I do now)@dudepoints.fun · 4d agoTrying out a new tiny keyboard setup that attaches to my phone and makes it super top heavy and I just need to get my titan elite fixed and why did blackberry go out of business

Spent the morning working outside and please someone come peel off my skin. Please.
men when christopher nolan casts a non-white actor: that is not ACCURATE they were all WHITE men when emily wilson points out christopher nolan’s inaccuracies: oh come on it’s just a film it can’t be 100% faithful to the original
Yes, Emily Wilson has a well-reasoned critique of Christopher Nolan's Odyssey, but I'm waiting to hear his Peloton instructor's take.
SANGSLAY LHADEN HIVE RISE UP
ESC Discord@escdiscord.com · last wk.🇧🇹 BBS has announced that the Bhutanese #Eurovision Asia national final is called "Rhythm of Bhutan" and will take place on 11 August. Five acts will take part in the competition: 🔹 The Sangay Lhaden Band 🔸 Baeyul 301 🔹 Karma Drupchu 🔸 Thukten Nyendra 🔹 Pelden Wangchuk
mildly funny that X is having blazing rows about Nolan’s Odyssey because he cast black people in it and Bluesky is having blazing rows about whether a noted Homeric translator’s LRB review of it misses the point or not
The real adaptation question we should all be asking is when are we getting IMAX MURDER SHE WROTE
Emily Wilson is completely correct about Nolan's take on the food in The Odyssey. Her translation is full of lavish descriptions of food, so much so that at points I felt like I was reading a prelude to a New York Times Cooking column. (1/x)
Had a great moment on a site visit today when we opened a door and found an unexpected cat
Saw the Odyssey and enjoyed it but rolled my eyes so hard at Calypso and her depiction in the film. She fell in love with Odysseus? The big question is WHY because in Nolan's adaptation he is bringing nothing to the table except brooding and wandering on the beach.
If ANYBODY shouts about accessibility, you HAVE to listen to them. None of the “I think you find…” rubbish
I'm going to see the Odyssey this morning and between The Aeneid and The Person I Live With asking me if I was ready to go, my internal earworm is now: H-O-T-T-O-G-O Arma virumque cano
This is so Philly and so Ack-a-me. "Special on cinnamon buns in aisle 8 and this special breaking news: LeBron is coming to Philly."
Queen of Jeans@queenofjeans.bsky.social · 2w agothey announced that we got LeBron over the PA speakers at the Acme lmao
The Caroline Cash era of Nancy is SUBLIME (Especially for a person who gets paid in worms)

An autistic man with a special interest in the Harry Potter series has made the decision to value the lives and dignity of his trans friends more than a book about a wizard who grows up to be a cop, sources have reported.
