Arrival's a very good movie, btw, it manages to tell a kinda simple story (like the original is a short story, it's not that complex) but still doesn't feel like it's wasting your time, it just takes its time and lets the great visual design and the amazing soundtrack sink in

why the heck does my Arrival Blu-Ray include a heavily compressed track with test images, to the point where the short pan through nature at the end of it are just a mess of artifacts? (cw eye contact for one of the images)

If you consider yourself a rational person, in particular a rationalist, I highly recommend you learn formal logic.

If you've never learned it formally, you need to take a hard look at how you think logic works, and how it actually does. Knowing lists of logical fallacies is not enough. You must be able to distinguish between valid and sound arguments. You must understand that a fallacy in an argument does not prove the conclusion false. You must understand that debates are not how truth is determined.

don't ask me why I'm washing the windows at two in the morning

phew, a good thing about washing the windows is that afterwards you have a bucket of horrible sludge so it really feels like you did something

My excitement about the Matrix 4 is less about More Matrix and more about Lana Wachowski hopefully having the power to take this beloved series and make it as unapologetically queer as Sense8
