I'm all for defunding the police. If you need bullies because you're terrified of black-folks and queer-folks and need them killed to feel safe, you need a reality-check. Meanwhile, the ones calling everyone else cowards need to pack heat to go to the fucking grocery-store. They are complete whack-jobs.

Epiphany

Do you remember the first time you realized that you'd never run-across "your tribe" because it didn't exist & that you were completely alone in the world? Age of 6 here. I realized it in 1st-grade on the playground at recess.

Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil

Film-geek trivia: If you put closed-captions on near the beginning of TUCKER AND DALE VS. EVIL, in the scene where the general-store manager is reading-off the list of items Dale is purchasing for their vacation-home... After the "three-inch nails", one of the items mentioned is "lubricated condoms". Tucker is constantly noticing women, but Dale is repeatedly reinforcing to him what a "good-looking" / "handsome" and "good-hearted" / "sweet" guy he is. This changes the whole dynamic of the film & makes you see why this trip is so important to Dale.
