RIP to Drew Struzan, the artist behind the iconic posters for so many classic Hollywood movies of the 70s and 80s

I can't pick a favorite, so I'll go with his unforgettable one sheet for 'John Carpenter's The Thing', a perfect poster for a perfect film, one I didn't know it was his until today 📽️

Still looking for someone, haven't found a single person so far (that I can contact). I have a 46-episode script that I need translated. This would be a paid job!

Sena Bryer @senabryer.com · 12d

Completely unrelated to my 2am doomposting but does anyone know an English to Japanese translator, ideally with experience in screenplays?

the funniest thing about this is that those of us who grew up in the divide all have a bunch of pre-cell phone numbers memorized and almost none afterwards

I know the home phone numbers of two of my childhood best friends from thirty years ago and none of the cell numbers of my college friends

bleary @bleary.off-the-records.com · 2d

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

In case you aren’t aware, any video you see with the label “Sora” is A.I. generated. It’s fake.

Do NOT make or share #AI videos. It contributes to misinformation, and to a larger culture of disrespect for truth and disregard of reality.

Plus it enriches capitalist techbros raping the planet.

more bones to sort

an illustration inspired by Over the Garden Wall. Wirt and Greg are in the woods at night, with Lorna possessed by an evil spirit hovering above them. Wirt looks scared, raising his arms to cover his face, and Greg holds up his frog who has a shining bell inside its belly.
