  1. Twin Peaks Discussion

    Errata from recently: Please watch Psych, season 5, "Dual Spires" because it is the most hilarious homage/send-up of Twin Peaks obviously made by fans on the show's team. It includes a lot of actors from S1/2 of Twin Peaks, albeit in different kinds of roles, but worth it. The jokes are hilarious.
  2. Twin Peaks Discussion

    Currently, there's no way to stream FWWM in the US, as far as I know (which is like Hulu, Amazon Prime, or Netflix) and online "legally obtained" copies often are bad cuts that are missing scenes or are fan-cuts that include Missing Pieces footage. However, you can buy the DVD in the usual places. I got mine from Amazon.

    Absolutely. Couples who wanted a third to "spice up" their marriage, poly couples looking for a mutual third (I have never, ever listed myself as poly), etc. Even when I was listed as JUST looking for friends (really) people still kept propositioning me because I am bisexual.

    Aww, Twig. I like you. I have not had to be on dating services for 7 years now because I'm in a long-term thing but when I was, it was pretty annoying because I'm a queer woman and it's either creepy dudes or couples who wanted to solicit my services as a marital aid. Despite me not advertising for that.

    This is great, thanks for sharing.
  6. Twin Peaks Rewatch 14: Demons

    I'd be okay with a General Twin Peaks thread, just because I know I've been stumbling over errata in the Twin Peaks vein that I just want people to see but I'm also cool with dropping it in whatever thread people are reading, hah!

    SuperBasedMan Congrats on the job, man!
  8. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    The kind of person weev turned into is so fucking weird as someone who knew him in the early LJ days when we were just all weirdo nerds. Then again, I am glad I was only on the fringe when that group solidified into Encyclopedia Dramatica and all points beyond.

    Private message me an e-mail and I will send it!

    Turns out I actually have a copy of the PDF sitting on my harddrive so whomever wants it, let me know.
  11. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    Half-Life 3, confirmed. (As not a game.)

    A nice solid phone is the Galaxy line, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4, which is affordable given that the S6 is coming out soon iirc.

    Let me find a good PDF source for you, otherwise, I will just straight up send you the book. I like it that much.

    This is why I'm on Verizon - I got cell service in the middle of Death Valley. Like literally off-road in the desert.

    Essential read, in my mind, if not something that people think of as a "feminist" read per se. If you can get it, try to read "Why Does He Do That: Insides the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men" by Lundy Bancroft. It's fairly cheap on Amazon but you can also find free PDFs online. It goes into detailing why abusive men act the way they do but it has a lot of applicability to anyone who's deal with abusive spouses, parents, friends. It helped me a lot through a lot of shit I didn't really get in past relationships.
  16. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    Yeah, it'd be reductive, though that's sort of how Call of C'thulu does it except you never regain sanity. I'd love to see a game that maybe at least dealt with that subject matter though. I know quite a few games feature a character that prominently deals with something like depression (The Cat Lady is a great example of this) but nothing much else beyond that. See: asylum games as how to not handle mental illness or mental health.

    Yes, precisely!

    I have dreams where I date Donald Glover a lot. It's actually kinda odd.
  19. If you have Prime, it's really easy to get a copy of the FWWM dvd shipped to you but I think I'm the only person who doesn't own a blu-ray player.
  20. "Ethics and Journalistic Integrity"

    I am probably going to put myself up for volunteering at Crash Override because I would really like to help other harassment victims.
  21. Screenshots. Shots of your screen.

    This is the thread for me. I love screenshots. A lot.
  22. This vaping thing is so weird to me because I've known about it (in regards to marijuana) and also e-cigarettes for a couple of years now! But I guess it's really caught on as a hip thing. I don't smoke personally but I've tried my boyfriend's e-cig and it's great if you want that stressed writer feeling at your desk because you can puff away hands-free and not worry about ashing. It's great if you want to feel very film noir-ish as well.

    I hope you get it man!
  24. The Great Debate: Legalization

    I am usually not afraid for my safety around stoners, I am around drunk guys. Drunkeness leads a lot more to really unhealthy mood changes and a pretense that suddenly all of your inhibition and judgement goes out the window.
