What book that hasn't been adapted into a TV show or movie do you think deserves an adaptation?
  • This is what I was looking for. Sure, we have a crappy animated movie, but all I have ever wanted was to see the Heroes of the Lance in real life.

    TIL about raisin juice concentrate - some truly Goldbergian food science
  • Absolutely not a joke! I was eating some granola bar and noticed in the ingredient list. I thought it was some ridiculous labeling thing and had to look it up. The bit you quoted was what I figured it was, but it still sounds absurd on the surface.

  • When I read the link, I immediately said to myself "Well, I guess it's just like prune juice." But that still doesn't mean it doesn't seem strange on paper.

    I plan on blowing my brains out soon.
  • They tell you your brain is broken and you'll never live a normal life without medication?

    I was seeing a counselor years back and she made this point to me. "If you had a heart condition that could be treated with medication, would you take it? What makes taking care of your brain different?" I was really the simple bit of logic I needed to hear. Luckily, the meds worked with only a couple minor increases over the years. Medication is absolutely an avenue worth exploring.

    Response: Here is a list of all the restaurants in specific city.

    I don't think some polite pushback on that is unwarranted.

    I moved over to Proton earlier this year and have had a good experience so far, but I'm not married to it or anything.

    What's your favorite Christmas movie, and why?
  • Watch out for the icy patch!

    I don't even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it's absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.

    According to the description, "one of Australia's best songs" and I would have to agree.

    Sadly relegated to "one hit wonder" status thanks to the success of the single "Banditos" (give your ID card to the border guard, now your alias says you're Captain Jean-Luc Picard), I always thought this followup was the better song. One of my favorites on an album loaded with great songs.

    Was reminded of this album while listening to the first track of @ren@lemmy.world's new album. Dump is a side project from James McNew of Yo La Tengo. Quite honestly, this collection of Prince covers is all I've ever listened to, but it's great.

    I just thought "Nature Boy" needed some company.

    DHBC is a band based around Portland, Maine. I've known these guys for some years now, some more than others. But I've always loved their music and songwriting. If you enjoy this, I highly recommend checking them out on the streaming platform of your choice.

    At this point, Elliott Smith had already released two solo albums and was a year away from a whole lot of people knowing his music thanks to Good Will Hunting.

    I JUST started dipping my toes into Heatmiser, and I owe a long overdue apology to my roommate from 20 years ago, Bill. I didn't get your complete obsession with Elliott Smith at the time, but fuck if I don't now. I should have listened to you.
