Oh my, you really did go for 4 hours. I almost fell asleep three times.

*comfortably buzzed, bag of chips in hand*

Oh my, hello 4 hour Earthbound speedrun relay race. What are yooooou doing here? You and me? For four hours? *blushes* oh myyyyy

@GavinWolf B-But the diagonal is a bingo.

My secondary bank account is the center dash in my car where approximately 40 dollars worth of quarters and loose change resides because I hate having coins in my pockets.

@tom *nods violently* just a whole movie where he talks in 30s idioms. the rubik's cube bit had me in tears.

@tom I want a whole movie following Noir Spider-Man. Nicolas Cage was such a perfect casting choice for him.

I hereby declare 2018 to be the 'Bryan Tyree Henry is in literally everything' year. Reading a column on If Beale Street Could Talk and how the hell is he in this too.

@m_m_myers this is a good beastie boys opinion

🎵 Why do people still use Faceboooook🎵

Spotify has determined today to be a Beastie Boys day and I am ok with that.

@triumph_forks there's a few places where it felt like they cut scenes out with a machete to get it to their target running time, but everything is so visually striking and fast moving that it doesn't really hurt the film at all other than having a few questions and plot threads left hanging.

Also stay for the post credits.

Into the Spiderverse was so good I'm contemplating seeing it again sometime next week.

Sony managed to top everything Disney did this year and has a serious chance to usurp them at the Oscars.

All this from the same studio that did the Emoji Movie.

Just got out of into the spiderverse and I'm pretty sure that this movie just raised the bar for every animated feature that comes out after it.

in some positive trans news, last Saturday a trans man stepped into a boxing ring professionally for the first time in history and won.

@WhiteClaw That makes sense, and what I've read on CRISPR, makes me think the primary concern is the potential for new forms of cancer to spring up from it.

In which case I would think scientists would be working on a safer form of CRISPR for use with human gene editing, but the pushback in this article seems like a lot of scientists are against human gene editing period.

Though maybe they know there's no such thing as safe human gene editing, I don't know.

as a very much not scientist who knows nothing about gene editing, I'm kind of surprised that the scientific community appears to be strongly against human gene editing.

I've always figured that gene edited humans were gonna be the next step of human evolution, but there's some serious backlash here.

@SuperCee it's an amazing movie, deeply cinematic and approaches the issue presented in a very respectful, realistic manner that you don't usually see out of Hollywood.
