PointCrow is awesome. Loved watching him with LilKirbs, Cosmic, and EazySpeezy when they were together doing speed run vids together.
I haven’t read the book either but I heard this Lolita podcast series and it was a great breakdown about how it was misinterpreted. I couldn’t believe everything I knew about it from mainstream media was off.
Will definitely be checking out your video!
I’ve been trying to memorize the countries of the world and I did that thing where you just quiz yourself over and over and it worked but it didn’t go into long term memory for me. I think this is a big help in giving me context. I love it.

Larson took the unusual step of issuing a press release, explaining the joke:
The cartoon was intended to be an exercise in silliness. While I have never met a cow who could make tools, I felt sure that if I did, they (the tools) would lack something in sophistication and resemble the sorry specimens shown in this cartoon. I regret that my fondness for cows, combined with an overactive imagination, may have carried me beyond what is comprehensible to the average Far Side reader.[1]
Years later, in The Prehistory of the Far Side, Larson further explained that he was inspired by the idea that tool use was the characteristic that separated mankind from the rest of the animal kingdom

I’m still trying to link it fully though … Not sure I really get it.
Seems like something he’d say to be honest.
The first scene is absolutely amazing.
I didn’t enjoy the rest, however … there’s a few dumb decisions that were made like most horror movies that made me not enjoy it.
That first scene though, I’ve seen it like 20 times it’s so good.
I just watched it too. Really enjoyed it over the second and third.
I felt they did a better job of setting the mood and scene than the previous ones.
The Beatles are undoubtedly a huge part of music history and a huge foundational piece of rock and roll. That being said, listen to what you like and like what you like.
I have trouble watching a lot of classic movies and find them boring. I’d like to think that’s fine!
