SCHMOESTREAM

[chardmonster]

Your usual shitstreamer being busy, I am taking this opportunity to show you all the videos he is too much of a wimp to handle!

Also I'm showing movies you want to see.

Right now the only thing I have narrowed down is JUPITER ASCENDING, the lovely but only partly comprehensible movie by the Wachowskis.



I am totally up to stream ARSENIC AND OLD LACE, one of the greatest movie comedies ever filmed. Come for Cary Grant being adorable! Stay for MURDER.

Also, as requested by your favorite problematic fave Nursejoy, FINGERSMITH. You may know it from book club. Victorian intrigue and lesbians.

ARE YOU FABULOUS ENOUGH TO JOIN ME? livestream.com/chardmonster at 6pm Saturday.

Sheep

[(Anonymous)]

So what is everyone's favourite breed of sheep, and why? I like the Border Leicester. It is the ears that do it, they always look so utterly surprised by everything.
http://www.borderleicesters.co.uk/

Or the Lacaune because it looks like every sheep from an Iberian story ever.

[poisonenvy]

I don't suppose there are any roleplayers out there who'd be interested in playing characters from the manga Angel Sanctuary (specifically Kira or Setsuna) or Petshop of Horrors (specifically D)?

Ugly surnames

[(Anonymous)]

What are the worst you know?

In English:

Butt/Butts
Dick
Kuntz - a German surname that sucks in an English-speaking context.
Coward - I know, it comes from "cow herd." But it still sucks with this spelling.
Cox
Gay - good luck in elementary school.
Beaton - homophone of beaten, as in you're going to get beaten up for your ugly name.
Cockburn - yeah, it sounds okay, but it looks like something you should see the doctor about.
Tucker - Tucker Tucker bo bucker, fee fi fo....
Longbottom - LOL
Smith/Jones/Johnson - your ancestors weren't very creative, being smiths and being named John, were they?

Gross confessions (TW and TMI!)

[(Anonymous)]

What are yours? I'll put mine in the second comment.

Share your meta!

[kaijinscendre]

I just got out of watching Max Fury aka the greatest movie I have ever see. So I am looking for any and all meta from it especially involving Max and Furiosa.

And share your favorite meta (personal or from other people). Change the subject to the Fandom to help people!

ESL with a linguistic question

[(Anonymous)]

Can someone explain to me the difference between plush, stuffed, cuddly and soft toys? Is this a regional thing, or is there something in the way they're made?

Catching up with anons

[(Anonymous)]

I think we didn't have one of these in a while?
Ask about anons/users who you remember and have been wondering what became of them.

(Inb4 coffee-anon. I think we'll never find out the truth about them.)

Book Recs

[(Anonymous)]

I need some recs but feel free to ask for yourself.

Question/help thread

[(Anonymous)]

Have a question? Get help here!

Will anyone give me Buffy/Faith recs?

[intrigueing]

While I am a big fan of BtVS, I never read much fanfic for it. So now that I've gotten another craving for Buffy/Faith fic, I'm not savvy enough to find the good fics. Will anyone give me recs?

I would prefer fics that take place or were written during the show's timeline, especially during season 3, since I know zilch about the sequel comics.

Decisions thread

US-centric SJW bafflers (mentions slurs)

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think anything I typed below is surprising. Just wanted to share.

I'm in my early 20s and live in an Asian country where the majority is ethnic group X. It's neither white nor white-passing. I have encountered some social circles where people in my age bracket habitually use the n-word both in a loose 'dude'-type sense and as an insult. But not to anyone black in person. There are hardly any black people here.

One girl (of group X) in one of those circles was a fan of A$AP Rocky and seemed to be SJ-aware, at in the sense that she took part in (fairly simple) feminist discussions on Facebook.

Another was my ex-colleague, a dark-skinned Indian girl who said the n-word every other day. But I guess that was only her second favourite word, because she said 'faggot' practically every day in both friendly ribbing and genuine insults. Including to one friend of hers, who was a lesbian (group X) and didn't mind, even using it herself.

Then there was another ex-colleague, who was older than me and of ethnic group Y (sizeable minority, also not white or white-passing). He was gay and out of the closet in the office and to at least some friends and family, but it wasn't public knowledge. One day he thought it was funny to do an impersonation of a sassy American black ghetto single mother stereotype. I have no idea of the context and doubt it was malicious, but I was just puzzled to suddenly hear that. Others lapped it up, though.

Also, that guy did get the first ex-colleague to stop saying 'faggot'. But only while in the office.

Now about me. I'm X-passing but actually of a renowned strain of filthy, job-stealing foreign invaders. Yet another ex-colleague once said over lunch with me and some others how terrible it is he can't hear English in [high street area] because of all the people of my ethnic group hanging out there on their days off. A couple of others pointed out how un-PC that was, but the rest laughed or joined in. I just laughed uncomfortably. It's an awkward gift.

Is Vito Corleone a good man?

[(Anonymous)]

Rants thread

[(Anonymous)]

So, I'm at Dairy Queen with my 9 yo son, and I tell him if he wants a Blizzard, he needs to get a salad for his meal. So he tells me wants (chicken blt salad and small blizzard) and goes to wash his hands. When he's gone this cow behind me crawls up my ass about "policing" his food, body shaming him (he's not fat, btw) and setting him up for a lifetime of food issues.

And fuck you lady. It's called raising my kid to make healthier choices in the day to day. I gave him options and he decided the ice cream was more important than a burger and fries. I wanted so badly to tell her to keep her nose the fuck out of my family's business, but he was back by then. And in addition to teaching him healthy food habits, I'm also trying to set a good example for how we deal with people and behave in public.

So instead I just said "that's your opinion" and turned my back on her, with my son in front of me. But seriously. Fuck that lady.

Tried using a username but reverted to the anon life

[(Anonymous)]

Anyone else here today done this?

As somone new to transhumanism

[(Anonymous)]

Could someone clarify what boundary needs to be broken before we can be considered to have reached the singularity? Because human bodies have been upgraded with technology for quite some time. Not just mechanical upgrades like pacemakers and prosthetics, but chemical upgrades like medication that helps balance our brain chemistry and prolong our life beyond our life expectancy.

So what frontier do we have left to break to count as reaching the singularity?

Fandoms you won't admit you looked into

[(Anonymous)]

I did an anon stint in Lolitics (politician RPF, mainly UK) years ago. It may have been helpful that I will probably never forget a handful of politicians' names and faces. And I didn't suddenly turn against politics RPF in principle. But the YKINMK-ier areas of that fandom...it's great I never had a username for it.

Secrets you didn't expect to remember, but do

[(Anonymous)]

I mean fandom!secrets.

I remember a couple, a long time apart, that were about having dreams about strangely-cast movies. The first was Rob Thomas and Michael Bublé, with Rob as some jaded guy and Michael as the one who teaches him to love. The second was a rom-com starring Sarah Millican and Jimmy Carr. No further details.

Yeah idk why those stuck

TRIPLE CROWN!!!!!

Congrats American Pharaoh!!!!

Games thread!

Another Ask Questions thread!

[(Anonymous)]

People post and anyone can ask them questions. I was thinking that if they wanted people could mention something from their background that they think others might be interested in hearing more about and then anons could join in too.
