Since the lights seem to be flickering here, not sure how much time there is:
I'm @[email protected] on Mastodon and FSkornia#7137 on Discord. I'm also FSkornia on Twitch at https://t.co/7hOm9BZCKw where I stream irregularly, usually adventure and mystery games

@typesetjez That would honestly be a more interesting story than most of what we've gotten recently.

@Gibboanxious Cool Hand Luke & Jurassic Park

[Frank Skornia @FSkornia]

The Phantom Menace.
A: The exposition was clunky, but the plot idea had promise. It also constructed new narratives in Star Wars.
B: Obi-wan & Qui Gon vs Darth Maul & Duel of the Fates
C: Pod racing

@talkn3rdytome33 It did when it first launched. I have hardly used it since then, so I don't know if they updated that behavior.

Keep getting a message that Tweetdeck does not have authorization for my account. It comes and goes.
Seems like Tweetdeck-mageddon is ensuing.

@hulkbrarian You can do it!

@janineveazue I would need to relearn how to write haikus, but it would be fun to channel my inner-Bashō

@catladylib I've mainly moved to Mastodon, but I think I was lucky enough to follow some pretty active people early that led me to other connections.
My feed over there is very different though. It's slower and focused more on analog delights like books and crafting.

@eBookNoir There is a general wisdom going around that studios shouldn't be looking at trying to remake films that are classics, but rather looking at the films that had good premises, but maybe the execution wasn't great or audiences weren't there for it at the time. All 3 of those qualify

@eBookNoir Alexandra Paul is still acting, so they could totally have her back as The Not-Virgin Connie Swail.

@paraVestibulum I think that's the main demographics of Ayn Rand fans too! What a coincidence!

[Frank Skornia @FSkornia]

@paraVestibulum @dharmascholar *whispers* I /always/ read the comments, despite being online forever.

[Frank Skornia @FSkornia]

@paraVestibulum @dharmascholar Nice thing still about Tweetdeck that limps on is you can still see the Reply/RT ratio and it's bad. >:-)

Extreme weather caused by climate change is a problem that affects the whole world in ways we can't even imagine yet.

@otherhappyplace I generally dislike Romeo & Juliet, but I really like this film. It has such an incredible style to it.
