Not my circus, not my monkey. 🙈

Those two were an inimitable duo, and one of my all-time top go-to teams.

For more historically accurate and shamefully repressed to this day Sengoku-era revelations: check out Gohatto.

(FWIW: the wiki is rife with spoilers, and has none of the subtlety & grace of the film itself, so maybe just watch the film before reading the article, sorry.)

Kurosawa was a god among us.

Next, give Takeshi Kitano’s catalog a go. 🤌🏼❤️‍🔥

Oh, and by the by, many have tried over the decades to translate Lone Wolf & Cub to the screen, and very few (if any) have found success at any level in their attempts. Kurosawa once described it as “cinematic perfection in every frame” when he declined to take on one such project. 🤘🏼

p.s. A fun start to said filmography: Zatōichi — though, Takeshi’s Castle is an insane series, and testament to the man’s ability to come up with gold when given nothing at all by the execs (IIRC, <$10k — which all went to the gameshow’s “winner”)

Hey, it’s your adventure, man. Pave it in gold all you like. 🫠

Wake me up when TSA eats itself whole.

Meanwhile, the latest statistics show 40% of commercial pilots are drunk at the stick… 😅

This is fine. Everything’s fine.

Ah, I see you’re interested in our local laws regarding foreign land ownership. Cue more fine print engineered to fuck you into the mud. 🤷🏼‍♂️

<in Quebecoise> “Oooh, Atro-nach!”

… It’s set on the shores of Bikini Atoll, FFS.

Ergo, you’re expecting said scam to not alter the deal further. 🙈

Ohhh, that’s why it’s called a “molly”. 🤌🏼

I miss the ocean so much. 😅😭😅

Wizards banned it, clerics swear by it.

Just imagine how much time we’d all save by simply omitting panels 1 & 4. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The People’s Sniper has them both in-sights, and doesn’t chatter on comms. 🤞🏼

What a sublimely calming picture your username and this post paint together. Thank you. 🌈

You’re glancing at the glossy brochure and assuming the fine print won’t fuck you into the mud.

You’re perfect! Sign right here!

Fact: anyone can buy a Guinness World Record, and no one can have one without paying. 🤌🏼

source: I was on the leadership team of a charity that smoked the current “record” holder for the relevant activity by an enormous margin, but GWRL wanted to charge us $15k +$5k/sponsor of said charity event that, at the time, had more than 75 sponsors.(mostly product donors, but also volunteers, etc) FWIW, we still hold the record.

That assumes we are.

Came here to say exactly this. 🤌🏼
