imagine if alien life forms supernatural beings metahumans and mutants were all real and the tv shows movies audio paperback hardcover and comics books were based on there lives
If a multiverse exists then there is actually an Earth
where all the superheroes are realDreams in the Witch House.
This is pretty fascinating. I'm listening to the Post Mortem podcast, and they're talking about Masters of Horror, so I went through the episodes and found a H.P. Lovecraft one based on Dreams in the Witch House. I then looked it up and at it's adaptations. It's also in Cabinet of Curiosities. So that's the same H.P. Lovecraft story adapted twice not that far apart.
So I read the wikipedia page on it. And the critics back when it was published didn't consider it to be al that good. However, for being a less than great story, it got adapted twice. You rarely see Lovecraft stuff being adapted these days.
It was lunch time at work, so I figured I would read it. I pull up my StandardEBooks H.P.Lovecraft Short Story collection, and it's missing. This is frustrating.
I come home, find it, and create an epub for it to read tonight or tomorrow. I want to better understand why a story considered less than great got adapted twice.

i still wonder if alternate earths in the multiverse are real lol lol
I'd like to believe that they are
Does it make any difference when the studios are judging how successful something is if you watch a movie or show on the studio's streaming service vs someone else's? I've noticed a lot of the movies on Paramount+ are also on Prime Video and I was just curious if it makes any difference which one I watch them on. I was just thinking that a studio might care more about how many people are watching Gladiator II or A Quiet Place: Day One on Paramount+ than how many people are watching it on Prime Video.
It probably doesn't. I noticed when using the Windows TV and movies app a lot of the films I had bought were also on other platforms like Prime, Netflix, and even Paramount Plus.
MS has since stopped selling movies and TV shows and we were told to download all our purchases if you wanted to keep them.
You can still watch them via the app but I feel better having a copy of everything to myself
Wondering why I keep seeing more and more WWII films, but I see a dearth of films about conflicts since the 1990s. Feels very conspiratorial.
But I did learn about a horror episode in Masters of Horror called Homecoming that does address more recent conflicts.
This one is on my list to watch.
And the doc from Voyager is in it if you need a Star Trek reason to watch.

When did tech companies decide to become utility companies? And why is making the population even more dumb worth the pollution?

An Amazon data center could have the worst polluting power plant in the country
An Amazon-owned site in Pecos County, Texas, received a permit to release up to 33 million tons of CO2.

Why do some people clap in a cinema at the end of a film? It's weird and creepy like it's not a play you are not applauding a person you're essentially applauding an inanimate object.
Theatres were far more rowdy in the 80s. Then folks started behaving at some point. And then the pandemic hit, and now you never know what you're going to get in a theatre.
I do find it funny that some theatres make them really cold and then sell blankets now.
imagine if casinos style gambling was legal everywhere around the world and not just at certain provinces in canada and also not just at certain states in the us of a
It's becoming that way. Folks can make bets on their phone where I live.
Belgium is the anti-Switzerland, and vice versa.
I just checked on Wikipedia and casinos are allowed in 24 different US states and three territories, and there are 532 Indian casinos run by 243 tribes, so gambling is way beyond just Vegas these days.
It used to be a regular thing people always did when a movie ended, I think it's just in the last few decades it became a lot less common.
what i mean as in like the actual casinos like the ones in las vegas and also in atlantic city
