You nod your head at the right times.
Nescio de quo loqueris. Te oportet futuere tete.
I had no idea there were swears in Latin.
I only know Romanes Eunt Domus ๐
Pretty sure you can swear in any language, or at least arrange words such as to heavily imply it.
Ok, maybe not Linear A or something
Over The Garden Wall was removed from the Internet Archive and got pulled from some streaming services and reinstated on oneโฆ now is a great time to watch it if you still have access.
I hate that every fucking media company/distributor thinks they need their own fucking streaming service.
I remember when Netflix was actually amazing, so many movies and shows, docos, and now they have all been moved and Netflix is a piece of shit company funding some asshole making true crime a dramatic untrue retelling (Menendez brothers, and others).
And now shits being removed from the net. Enshittification ugh
Does anyone here watch MKR?
Shut up Lawrence. Just shut the fuck up. Your sour grape mansplaining is making me angry.
Couldnt pay me to. Only Free to air I watch is Gogglebox and Thank God you're here. And if gogglebox is watching any reality stuff I just play with my phone till they stop. So i basically watch less than half of gogglebox I guess.
Circling back to touch base with my priority team ๐
