Wonder how Thai is the zipfile of languages.

Once the hive mind takes over and the downvote train starts it’s all but impossible to turn your post positive regardless of contrition. It’s unfortunate because it removes some incentive to publicly self-correct.

Famine? All of the above? And some improvement in stability or medical availability contributed to this?

A webring is as close as you could get to federating. No SSO, but you could use different sign-ins just like going from lemmy to kbin or so.

Don’t forget your private jet to get back to civilization when you’d like some decent medical treatment, something other than satellite TV, or a dinner of better quality than whatever restaurant is next to the truck stop.

Because movies like that belong on the “Lifetime TV” or “Hallmark Channel”. It’s been done. Maybe yet another “Can’t fix stupid” reductionist country wisdom beats city slicker smarts? Or make fun of city people who don’t know how to ride a horse?

That, or nobody wants to watch movies with people sitting around bonfires drinking cheap beer on your truck tailgate.

I grew up rural. It isn’t that exciting.

Elegia by New Order.

Glad you enjoyed it.

Comments like this always make me think of this film. One of my favorites.
