Title.
I'm only asking because I've recorded it off of TCM and the block is 105 minutes in duration, which, according to a number of sources (including Wikipedia, Ebert, the Janus site, etc.), is the exact length of the film itself. Curiously, according to both Criterion's site and the packaging of its release, it's 100 minutes long. I'd just hate to get to the end of the film only to find that the last few moments have been cut off.
The Doctor shows up when they’re 7 and they both think of him as their “imaginary friend.” Then he shows up later when they’re older and Amy is pissed (rightfully so), but Madame de Pompadour is just like “oh hey fireplace man, it’s been awhile. Let’s make out”
Just interesting, didn’t notice the similarity the first time watching it through.
... e como o Lázaro Ramos é foda! Dá pra ver pq o tornou o ator bem sucedido que é hj.
Uma história baseada numa pessoa real que se tornou lendária em seu meio. É transformista, “viado”, mas muito “macho”. Não leva desaforo pra casa.

I was born on a Res and lived there for most of my life until going to college in a nearby state. In my community, we have a number of talented women who are amazing at beading. They make some truly remarkable stuff. Caveat is that they will only sell or trade to other people from the community, and possibly another tribal group. It's just how they do it.
I have 30 or so pairs of all kinds and wear them with pride. Almost every day I wear a brick stitch earring of some kind, it's just part of who I am, where I'm from, etc. Brings me a lot of joy.
Anyway a woman at work has really fallen in love with them. She compliments them and examines them. No issue there. Lots of people do. One day recently though, she asked me where I got them and if the person has an "Etsy" shop or something where she can buy her own. This woman is white with not a drop of the heritage in her, by her own admission.
Now... personally I have no issue with white people wearing the earrings! It's not about that. Wear whatever you want. But the women in my community do not sell them to outsiders (again, for the most part). It's just not done.
I told her no, and she asked for the contact information so she could commission a pair. I told her no again, that the person who makes them is very particular about who she makes them for. She kept pressing me, telling me "Well let her make that decision!" and stuff like that.
I got tired of this and told her, point blank, this person will not create or sell anything for you because you are white. She got extremely upset and threatened to make a statement to HR about me being racially discriminating.
AITA?
My reasoning is that if she wants beaded earrings, she can learn to make them herself, she can buy them from anyone else (there are so many white women on etsy who make "boho style" earrings), etc. She is merely upset because this one person will not cater to her.
Hello. I am Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins.

Update: I loved these questions.
Because they were questions for a human being. And as a human being, I don't mind talking about it.
And I hope everyone gets a chance to check out the new album that is out today. We are super-super proud of it, and when people say it's the best album in years, they're not lying.

Does anyone think this may have any relevance IJ?
