@Lady idk about temperature but https://www.fda.gov/radiation-emitting-products/tanning/ultraviolet-uv-radiation#6 says that there's more in the summer: «The sun’s angle in relation to the Earth varies according to season. During the summer months the sun is in a more direct angle, resulting in a greater amount of UV radiation.»
(with https://www.epa.gov/sunsafety/sun-safety-monthly-average-uv-index seeming to confirm that point)
hmm, i think glitch-soc's(i think?) styling of numbered lists in posts has some issues

@Lady oh hey zonelets
@pan good morning pan
ring fit adventure for the switch is kinda fun actually
@Lady poor electric mouse

@aescling seems like a pretty presumptuous claim
@xsssm@selfy.army whatta buncha little globs
i forgot the scooby doo where are you theme song was so good
@pan hehe yeah. at current rates it will be six working days before they get to me
someday i will discover a means by which to maintain a list of things i want to read that i won't lose or stop using
@Lady truuuu
i am quoting a section from a textbook, so this will be fairly long. this does get to Grenada at the end
@aescling … okay now i have to ask if that’s all they say about Iran-Contra???? or is that just like the next section
i feel like this book's author doesn't really care for postmodernism. big emphasis on "but if the real isn't a thing anymore then how can we say whether anything is good or bad?". including specifically giving Baudrillard on the Gulf War as an example of that, which my impression was that Baudrillard was in those essays very much criticizing (in the "disapproving of" sense) the Gulf War? i haven't actually read them, but that was the impression i had gotten from like wikipedia and such... i think i will probably actually read them now
@aescling does that US history textbook you've been looking at talk about the invasion of Grenada at all?
re: sex in the movie
@aescling guess ya gotta pay more attention on your next rewatch :P
re: sex in the movie
@aescling not sure what you thought was going on in the opening scene, when she gets in the bath and the camera pulls away to not be looking into the tub and she puts her legs up on the side of the tub and there's a repeated noise of movement in the water then lol
(alternately possibly it is not as memorable as i thought the corn flakes thing made it; i did not remember it from when i watched the film originally but i also forgot that they explicitly had sex lol)
