Why do people keep linking to shitty social media sites?
1 Especially ones intent on overthrowing our democracy?
What do you expect from a bunch of dinosaurs?
Shitting the floor or bed of hotel rooms is a problem now?
And you wonder why they keep making you go to Lincoln.
One of the few tings I miss here is birds. But I don't miss their shit.
Were you in this mosquito I just killed?
I just assumed the red stuff was my blood, but maybe not.
Can You create a mosquito You can't swat?
I think you're lying. I think the real God is the one using sentence case.
Hemingway once wrote: "The world is a fine place and birds are bad." I agree with the second part.
It's on the internet. It must be true.
Isn't this version of the dinosaur song terrific?

Do you need to see a doctor if you get bit by a dog? Definitely broke the skin but not painful.
When my dogs have bitten people (four times over the course of two dogs) I've offered to pay for any medical costs and they're like "oh, no it's not that big a deal" and I've never gotten sued by their estates so I think you're fine.
Anyway, my butt hurts but there wasn't much blood.
Hope the dog had some good bite marks on him.
I don't know why it bit me. It was growling or aggressive or anything. I think it was going to my wallet and missed.
Haven't seen it in person but pretty sure your butt is made out of meat
Can't hear you 'cause your butt's made of meat,
Can't hear you 'cause your butt's made of meat,

Do something about it!
Dog bites have a very high chance of becoming infected. There is also a risk of tetanus. If you are bitten by a dog and it breaks the skin you must seek medical attention immediately. Clean out the wound as much as you can, remove foreign objects, cover with a sterile dressing and go to the doctor as soon as possible.
They'll shoot the tetanus in the other cheek, so you'll be nice and balanced.
21. Don't forget the possibility of rabies.
I made the owner email me the papers for the shots.
remove foreign objects
MMAGA (Make my ass great again)
You said your ass was fantastic already. Crooked Moby!
Anyway, my tetanus shots are up to data and I just looked at my butt in the mirror. The cut is just a small scab with no inflammation or swelling.
Butts should only be looked at by professionals. Even if they are fantastic.
At least grease that thing up with some neosporin.
What are you trying to tell me? That I can dodge canine-transmitted diseases?
Anyway, I can't get get rabies because of St. Patrick.
Don't put neosporin on puncture wounds like dog and cat bites because you trap the bacteria deep in the wound. I learned that the wrong way.
Moby could start the first trap-and-release program for bacteria.
The pictures would be less than impressive.
I just want to say I'm glad your ass is fine, Moby. And by fine I mean okay.
BTW A Quiet Place is excellent horror.
47 Well worth catching in the theater btw.
42: The antiseptic ointment is trapping the bacteria that otherwise would be flying out of the wound for their freedom or something?IANA doctor but that sounds a bit off.
I couldn't find the Neosporin anyway.
I've heard bad things about bath salts.
I don't think it counts as a puncture wound. One tooth scraped the skin making a cut about an inch long but only just deep enough to break the skin. The opposing tooth didn't leave a mark, I think because it was on my wallet.
49: I think the idea isn't that the bacteria would fly out, but that oxygen would have otherwise reached and killed the anaerobic bacteria.
49: not just bite wounds but any deep wound needs to heal from the bottom up. any foreign matter gradually gets expelled. if it heals over at the top first then it's trapped in the wound cavity and you get sepsis. bad news. sometimes for a big puncture you pack it with sterile gauze to keep it from healing over at the surface before the deep tissue heals.
Like suffocation, but backwards.
If you want more air put into your butt wounds to avoid infection, someone needs to blow into them.
Or inject you with hydrogen peroxide.
I once met a guy who claimed hydrogen peroxide was the cure for cancer. I asked why this wasn't more widely known; apparently the Jewish radiologists are suppressing the truth.
Here's another shitty story: https://www.rt.com/usa/423449-alabama-waste-train-nyc/
Russian propaganda: Not just for Facebook.
63: well, peroxide will reliably kill off cancer cells....
Dogs will reliably kill off cancer cells.
60: You know how to whistle, don't you, Steve?
You put your cheeks together and squeeze.
55: Sure but is Neosporin or any other ointment providing that kind of barrier? I guess maybe if you're really packing the wound with it or something.
Maybe the bandage over the ointment is the problem? I don't know.
Anyway, I'm not dead, infected, or hydrophobic yet, so that makes both 30 and my wife wrong.
55 is correct! Neosporin is easily a barrier over a puncture wound.
Anonymous medical advice that doesn't recommend "essential oil"? I don't know.

Hey Barry, can you get FilmStruck on Arrakis? I cannot recommend it highly enough*. They've got the Criterion and Turner libraries on rotation. I just watched the Three Colors again and am now watching Down by Law; last week it was Chungking Express and Le Samourai. It's so damn good.
*Also recommended to non-Barries with an interest in film.
¦>
Yes, FilmStruck is amazing. Although, as with so much else, I imagine myself sitting down for the evening to watch e.g. lesser-known Ingmar Bergman movies, and then end up just staring at my phone looking at fail videos on the "Hold My Beer" Twitter account.
I had another look at Netflix but its selection seems to be oddly limited. Yes, lots and lots of episodes of obscure TV shows, but I was looking for LA Confidential and they didn't have it. It's only 20 years old, it was very commercially successful, well reviewed, mainstream Hollywood production... but they don't have it.

The problem is that the various streaming services, and the likes of Sky and Virgin, have all snapped up various exclusive distribution rights, carving up the movie landscape between them. If you want LA Confidential, you can only find it on Amazon Prime (in the UK). Typically only the PPV services will have a full(ish) selection of movies. When Netflix started out, it had deals with most of the studios, but over time it's deprioritised those in favour of originals and TV.
Basically I use my streaming subscriptions almost exclusively for TV and originals these days, and a DVD rental service for most movies.
80: which DVD rental service? I used to be on LoveFilm but they shut it down.
Cinema Paradiso. It's more expensive than LoveFilm was if you take the equivalent maximum flexibility package, but the selection is a bit better and there are good cheap packages too.
Does Fellini get a cut on every purchase?
"there are good cheap packages too"
Cinema Purgatorio, Cinema Inferno.
Canto XXI.
Still the Ninth Circle, First Zone; the Betrayers of Family. Those who have failed to live up to the examples set by their parents are punished by being forced to watch inferior sequels and remakes. Virgil and Dante encounter various sinners: Mordred, who betrayed his father King Arthur, is encased in ice up to his neck in front of an IMAX showing of Die Hard 2. Camiscion de' Pazzi and his kinsman Ubertino are watching the Mark Wahlberg Italian Job; as an act of mercy Camiscion attempts to ease his kinsman's suffering by chewing his brain out of his skull.

YEAH SURE. AND ARTHUR, THE MASS CHILD MURDERER, GETS TO CATCH UP ON THE WIRE.
Isn't mass child murder the default response to incest?
No. Just angst, or a bit of carpentry at the most.

My understanding is that the various rights-holders decided that Netflix wasn't paying enough, and when the rights agreements came up for renewal they either refused to license them at all or asked for exorbitant fees.
Netflix owns their originals, and TV is a dime an episode (with some series being exceptions) because there is so much of it.
About 1/3rd of Netlfix appears to be BBC shows, mostly pretty good ones. Another 1/3rd appears to be Canadian children's programming of such poor quality that I am very glad to have had our household grow out of it.
As a rare Netflix user with two teenagers logging in on my account, I tend to regard its personal recommendations as a kind of horoscope. Currently it's telling me to watch Tokyo Ghoul, Devilman Crybaby, and The End of the F***ing World.
I'm waiting for a show that combines by interest with my son's. I'm thinking five British homicide inspectors who come together to form a giant DCI with more crime-solving ability than just the sum of the crime-solving abilities of the five separately.
I'm thinking Inspector Morse is unhappy that Sherlock is the head of the lion.
The giant DCI relies for its functioning on an uninterrupted supply of real ale, weak tea, vintage Bordeaux, 7% cocaine solution and perfectly-cooked soft-boiled eggs.
77 Thanks fm, but it's only available in the US and the UK unfortunately. It's possible I might be able to use it with a VPN if they're not doing VPN detection but lately I've had VPN issues.
Now I want a perfectly-cooked soft-boiled egg. Or three.
Implied: despite geographical difficulties, Barry has managed to get hooked up with a connect for real ale, vintage Bordeaux and coke.
If we had some real ale, vintage Bordeaux and coke we could have real ale, vintage Bordeaux and coke and soft-boiled eggs, if we had some soft-boiled eggs.

Yes, exactly. They've decided originals and TV have a higher (and more long-term) return on capital, basically, as the studios have jacked up their prices. Increasingly they're not going to have much choice in the matter, though. Disney are taking their movies in-house, for instance.
If Disney could take their stupid tween comedies in-house, that would be just great. I'm not saying they have to trap the writers, producers, and stars in an abandoned warehouse full of genetically engineered rats, but I'm not saying they shouldn't either.
102 I've got some Belgian ale, Irish whiskey and Kentucky bourbon. I'll pass on the coke.
