One of my grandfathers was a dentist. The other was a fisherman.

I had a bonus grandfather who was a trucker.

What did your grandfathers do?

#one was a butcher and the other an electrician #fun fact : the butcher was an exact homonym (first + last name + spelling) of a famous french surgeon #both were alcoholic and super chill #the electrician one was fishing as a hobby and a really good cook #other fun fact : one of his son is a electronic engineer and my brother used to be an electrician too!

Books about polar expeditions are always called All The Dead People Who Died On The Most Deadly Journey Ever At the Poles: the Doomed Final Expedition of John Doomedtodieonaboat Where He Died and the reviews are all like 'wow this story was so gripping I just had no idea what was going to happen to Captain Doomedtodieonaboat'

"there is no way you're not using chatgpt for at least a few things here and there no matter your stance on it" what the FUCK are you talking about

#I still don't understand how it can be useful....#if you can use chatgpt you can use a search engine....#why not just... do that....#it's as fast and more reliable and doesn't kill the planet as fast....

The Shogun Assassination arc is even better with a rewatch holy shit.

The German company that built the forklift used in the Louvre robbery uses a photo of the heist to advertise itself: ”

"The Böcker Agilo moves your 400kg treasure with a speed of 42meters/minute. Quiet as a whisper thanks to the 230v electric motor."

#checked this is legit #lmao #when your share of the heist is getting paid in exposure

The Last Circus (2010) isn’t just a horror film. It’s an exorcism.

Álex de la Iglesia’s masterpiece uses the clown—not as a joke, but as a wound—to dissect Spain’s unburied trauma: fascism, machismo, and the silence that follows mass violence. Set against the shadow of the Valle de los Caídos, this tragicomic nightmare follows two clowns locked in a brutal dance of toxic masculinity, with a woman caught between them—not as a prize, but as a battlefield.

The violence is operatic. The humor is pitch-black. The grief is national.

Every frame is drenched in blood-reds and bruised purples. The performances—Carlos Areces’ shattered vulnerability, Antonio de la Torre’s terrifying charisma, Carolina Bang’s fierce resilience—are staggering. And that final image, atop Franco’s monument? One of the most haunting in 21st-century cinema.

This isn’t grindhouse for shock’s sake. It’s grotesque as political language—beautiful, brutal, and necessary. A landmark of antifascist cinema that refuses to let Spain forget.

As critic Cole Abaius wrote:

“Over all, the film is incredible. In the oldest sense of that word, it is awe-inspiring and grotesque. Stunning and heartfelt. It is a love letter to a country, a time and a frowning clown singing mournfully about a weeping trumpet.”

I 100% agree.

5/5 stars. A film I return to again and again—not for comfort, but for catharsis.
