Not only that, but to reach this point in the post, you would’ve read the meme that heavily implies something bad happens. If that didn’t deter you from continuing, you read the above comment that was asking for someone to further explain the meme.

If you still needed a spoiler tag after all that then what are we doing here people

    This kind of feels like one of those weird mythologized Japanese culture posts

    Japanese people jaywalk all the time - especially if you’re in a rural residential neighborhood.

    My wife works for the NPS.

    A rough summary of the situation right now is that no one really knows what’s happening right now. Everyone feels like they’re going to lose their jobs any day now.

    The people who should be off their probationary period are still on it and won’t be receiving proper status.

    A lot of experienced Rangers took the drop, which has led to not only a loss of knowledge and experience but a lot of parks are running ghost crews. Current rangers should be the ones filling those higher roles, but in doing so, you’re marking yourself as a probationary employee.

    Some open roles are not allowed to be filled at all.

    To keep the public from noticing how mutilated the NPS is, they’re hiring a ton of seasonal employees. Seasonal employees don’t have enough time to really learn about the sites they’re working at or work on interpretation. Replacing full-time employees with seasonal workers also strips away more middle-class jobs.

    Took me a second to realize these are locked behind glass.

    Maybe I’m alone on this, but if I see a product that’s locked up, which usually isn’t locked up, then I’m not asking for assistance - I’m just buying it somewhere else.

    Propaganda works

    I’ve always said that if you really wanted communism or socialism to take off in the states you’re gonna have to call it something else

    I also don’t use cis because the machine has already made that a thing people don’t want to be called

    I’ve played both of those, and I really enjoyed Talos 2 since it mostly just fed you lore while you were trying to do a puzzle, but don’t ask me what the story was because I couldn’t tell ya.

    I didn’t mean I couldn’t connect with the story in just those games, but in games in general. So when I talk about a game, I don’t really put much weight into my thoughts on the story, just the mechanics.

    Two investigative reporters for a tabloid magazine track down across country "The Night Flier", a serial killer who travels by private plane stalking victims in rural airports. One of the reporters, Richard Dees, begins to suspect that "the Night Flier could perhaps be a vampire". — Humberto Amador

     

    Hey, sorry for the meta post! Please please delete this post if this doesn’t fit here.

    I love this sub but there’s been a few movies where I love the cover and the movie isn’t very popular (these day?) but I don’t post it because it’s a once popular film.

    Some examples are like

    They Live (carpenter)

    Mars Attacks

    In the Mouth of Madness

    I love all of those but fear they’re too well known or had too big of a budget to be B movies.

    Like I love the activity on this sub but don’t want to accidentally co opt it into just being movies I love haha
