still think it’s incredible they made a movie musical about pt barnum where the point is like love and accept yourself no matter who you are or what you look like <3 when pt barnum irl was like exploitation georg who lives in a circus and and dehumanizes 10,000 people daily. not sure how they came up with that one
"Telling a fabricated story that audiences want to hear rather than anything faithful to actual facts about relevant history" is the most authentic experience a PT Barnum movie could possibly have been, though
A whale seemed to "come from nowhere" and appear on the beach while Father Albertus was taking a Sunday afternoon stroll after his sermon had ended.
Some are calling it a “strange act of nature” as a couple of fishermen just off the shoreline saw the whale appear to breach the shore and open its mouth to “swallow the poor fellow wholly up”.
The whale then abruptly returned to the sea leaving the witnesses in disbelief. They returned to shore to tell of the sight to every townspeople that would listen to them. “If it hadn’t been so early in the day, I would have said drink had blurred their vision."

An unknown man was found a fortnight ago laying by his still-saddled horse, without any life still within his body. He showed no signs of trauma, and his horse faithfully stood by his side on the ground. Local authorities are…

Up, right: some dead animals? on the beach?
Below, left: a giant squid attacking a ship?
I'm out of ideas on these two, but the first one certainly looks like a haunted house and in the second there is maybe a body there??
Also for some reason there is another bloodied dress there, but it doesn't look like part of the Witch Trial because it's not in the same place and there is a spinning wheel beside it. I have SO many questions 👀
@theressomehorrorsinthishouse I tried to add a bit of brightness to the painting below the "haunted house" pic to see if you might be right. Still not sure what this is about, because that looks like maybe a cross so that could be a priest and a possession, but if that's not a cross... then the story could be so much different.
Also, this week (ep 1x07) Wick mentioned the creature with tentacles attacking them when he was young so I guess this one is confirmed:
If you haven’t checked out either Widow’s Bay or the Boroughs yet, do yourself a favour and get into them this weekend. Widow’s Bay has eight episodes out of ten currently released, and the Boroughs you can binge watch the entire season (also 8 episodes). Both of these shows make me feel like I’m back in the 90’s, watching tv on free-to-air with ads. It makes me feel like there’s still a chance of enjoying tv or movies that have that lost quality, that freshness of having pure entertainment value, and soul. The payoff of the small details and actually having to pay attention to the plot to fully enjoy the story. That’s something I’ve really missed. Tv that requires a little concentration, with memorable characters and a healthy dose of fun. Don’t miss these! PS. I love Patricia!
I can't believe this entore site is not talking about Widow's Bay. Nautical folk horror, it's stephen king it's midnight mass it's also somehow an office comedy. Stephen Root is there. What more could you want?
This show y'all, it's as if someone read my dream journal for how to make the perfect horror/mystery show. Comedy is 10/10, spookies 10/10, Matthew Rhys' facial expressions, 10289230/10 🏝

alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
