    marshall allen presents sun ra and his arkestra - in the orbit of ra: mindblowingly amazing record. if you ever wanted a good place to start with sun ra this is it (although some of these are alternate takes of his popular songs) it's still a very good roundup of ra's extensive oeuvre sidestepping his more arcane and experimental workouts like heliocentrics worlds or space probe and diving straight in the cohesive works from albums like discipline 27-II, secrets of the sun and disco 3000. the eccentronic research council - johnny rocket, narcissist & music machine... i'm your biggest fan: i don't know why these guys insist on such long record titles that are more like manifestos, but whatever. this is beyond brilliant (perhaps their best record). it's impossible this time to separate the music from the narration as you're basically listening to something like a radio play about a fan who's obsessed with the title character, who is a bandleader that also make an appearance on the record.

    tried watching this but it's facepalmingly terrible. ben kingsley seems to be making anything nowadays. anyway, it's more like the story of moses than tutankhamun, and the dialogue is painfully contrived.

    it's more like tom cruise and rebecca ferguson are rogue nation with simon pegg's help. i've only watched the first 2 mission impossible movies and hated them a lot. this, however, was surprisingly entertaining no. without spoiling anything, this is imf (tom cruise and simon pegg) going after an anti-imf group. there is a scene where alec baldwin says "ethan hunt is unstoppable. he can be anyone at anytime. he is the very nature of destiny" that's basically the crux of this film. if a mission impossible movie isn't hyping tom cruise, then it does not exist. this did an excellent job of doing just that

    just got back from this. i hate to admit it, but it was really good. it's still basically tom cruise and his friends vs lots of bad guys. 7 last minute explosions in london out of 10

    hadn't watched this film since it first came out in 1998 and now, 17 years later, i still enjoyed it. the film still does have some serious 90s traits (mostly the music and that trainspotting type energy) despite having a lot of interest in world war 2 i'd never seen this film and i have to say, i wish i never did. rather than telling the story about how oskar schindler was trying to save jews from the massacre the film also injects its opinion on the situation- so it always feels like propaganda. despite this, i thought ralph fiennes was amazing as crazed nazi officer amon goeth and ben kingsley did his usual "i represent man's persecution on his fellow man" role

    i watched it and i really hated it. it's not even like it was made by the same filmmaker because it was so amateur. and i have to add, i LOVED the first one. really thought it was brilliant. the second one wasn't as good imo only because it fetishized the violence. but the third one was... not sure what the fuck it was except THERE WASSS A LOT OF YEEEELLLLINNNGGGG

    gotcha. thanks for explaining stepheng. btw: canada was voted most admired country in the world so obviously you guys are running things the right way. here in the united states, it's a slightly different story

    i actually don't think most of the things you listed are scarce (although i have no stats to prove my theory). but the point the video was making wasn't that things are scarce, but that people are paid today almost exactly what they were being paid 30 years ago while the cost of homes etc. keeps raising. btw: you gave an example of the full time hourly wage increase in canada. do you know what the cost of home or car in canada was 30 years ago compared to today, or is it around the same price?

    Shouldn't things in general be less affordable if they are more scarce? To curb consumption you need to make things less available right? Edit: I wonder how real scarcity is. I'm not an economist by any means but I figure scarcity is used as leverage to justify raising prices in a disproportionate manner to it being a real phenomenon what things are scarce? also, do you think it's normal that paychecks are around the same amount as they were 30 years ago? because that was the main issue. things getting expensive comes with the territory especially when you consider the population increase

    ^^ they are, but i think the issue is that paychecks haven't increased, so many can't afford the high costs (eg rent in san francisco is now equivalent to getting detroit out of debt)

    about kepler 452-b: it's the smallest exoplanet discovered to date discovered orbiting in the habitable zone of a g2-class star, just like the earth and the sun. kepler-452b is 60 percent larger in diameter than earth and is considered a super-earth-size planet. It's likely rocky. while kepler-452b is larger than earth, its 385-day orbit is only 5 percent longer. the planet is 5 percent farther from its parent star kepler-452 than earth is from the sun. kepler-452 is 6 billion years old, 1.5 billion years older than our sun, has the same temperature, and is 20 percent brighter and has a diameter 10 percent larger. the kepler-452 system is located 1,400 light-years away in the constellation cygnus kepler-452b is more likely more idm than earth
