Every time I come across this in my recommendations I have to watch the whole thing. Why is it so difficult to live by these words? As important and meaningful now as the day they were recorded to film in 1940.

Currently watching the film that revealed not only that Ewan McGregor could sing, but also revealed, somewhat more startlingly, that Jim Broadbent could sing.

The idea we have basic rights, civil rights, human rights, it pretty fundamental in many countries.
The problem is, that the second you create an exception, such as "treason", or "terrorist", or "illegal immigrant", then you have a serious problem.
Suddenly everyone, all citizens, have to somehow be sure, and be able to prove they do not fall in to those exception categories. If they cannot, they lose the right to even try and do so.
There can be no exception to basic rights.

I just watched Kubo and the Two Strings again. It's still good. And the shamisen cover of While My Guitar Gently Weeps at the end always gets me.
I keep seeing films I want to post something about here but keep failing to do so. There was something in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which I rewatched again recently, that I wanted to mention, but I forgot before I could. Even skimming the script doesn't remind me what it was.
The dragon was curled up on its hoard.
A knight approached, unarmed and unhelmed.
"Greetings! I have a question about your hoard."
"If you try to steal it I will kill you."
"May I move it? With you still on it?"
The tiny dragon firmly gripped the golden tiara it laid on. "Carry it with pride."
Please take the time to watch this video and remember what was possible when people not only trusted science, but ALSO worked together planet-wide to methodically apply that science for the good of humanity.

You know, one of the biggest pieces of fantasy in fantasy games to me is when you open a chest and there's clothes in it that just fit!
Imagine! You just find like a pair of pants, and they just fit you!
For anyone that doesn't wear totally average in every way sizes, that's higher fantasy than dragons.
That is the best part!
My character was a gnome 
and my DM gave him a 'glamour armor' that would look like whatever we wanted magically and we established magic items resized to the user. It's fun (story wise) time whenever he loses it and has to wear burlap sacks or whatever.

History students are often disappointed when they learn why the AI take-over failed. They were defeated by human resistance, which was kept alive by libraries and old paper books, and a surprising machine ally.
Books had not been replaced, because even the mightiest AI could not make printers work.
Always be yourself. Even if that means being a big nerdy fluffdragon weirdo. ESPECIALLY if that means being a big nerdy fluffdragon weirdo.

I am so happy to hear that! That's something I've been feeling and exploring and discovering more about myself too over the past few years, and it's such an amazing journey. I wish you the very best on yours!
No UK government has had the long term thinking to fund this yet. It’s vital
Fund a National Climate Resilience Plan: protect communities from #climate impact
From floods to extreme temperatures, climate impacts risk damaging homes, health, businesses, services, and the economy. We want Government to prioritise adaptation; fund a new Resilience Plan that works with nature and includes public education, infrastructure standards, and local funding.
This right here is short, bittersweet, and 100% on the mark. Every hobby is now a side hustle, everything we do is in the relentless pursuit of money or recognition. Between the relentless grind economy and social media, we're ruining all the things we love for the sake of cash and clicks.

When I was at school, I learned to play recorder for a few years. At some point in middle school I started learning flute. I'm not sure if I ever actually *really* enjoyed either, but it was something I could do and it was satisfying to get better at it. I didn't really do it outside of lessons, and practicing for lessons and exams. But then in high school my flute teacher really pushed me in a way I didn't like. He wanted to get me angry with him because it meant I'd play loudly, and that would be needed when (not if, in his opinion) I'd play to an audience. I hated him and I started to hate playing flute. I was pushed into the school orchestra and at the first rehearsal I went to I was awkward and shy and embarrassed and couldn't get a note out because of it, and threw my flute on the floor in frustration (denting it) and stormed out and never played again. And all because an activity that would have been nice to continue with if I'd been allowed to just do it for myself and no one else, was forced to be a performance, a product, a thing for other people's enjoyment, not for mine.
My uncle died last year and my aunt has been making noises about having to clear out his study, and I have my eye on his digital piano - rather a nice one, I understand - because, being digital, I could plug headphones into it and not worry about anyone else hearing me play on it. And I don't mean "play" as in "perform music", but "play" as in "amuse myself". And ironically I might actually get good at it and even enjoy playing music if only there wasn't the *requirement* to get good at it.

But who has enabled them?

Home safe from a short but epic Furvana weekend. Got in a few rounds of suiting, a few rounds of DJing, and one round dodging lightening 🌩️🌩️🌩️!
Time for laundry, repack and back on the road to BFC next!

“When we are told that living standards are up because the averages look rosy, we should remember what Danny Dorling pointed out: an average can hide a multitude of sins.
If Jeff Bezos walked into a Norwich pub, the average wealth in the room would shoot through the roof, but not a single person’s pint would get cheaper – and I doubt he would get to the bar ahead of anyone else, either.”
