And then join the faithful, or not. Either way is cool.

Dudeist priest for over years now. It's pretty cool.

I can't even remember... What did the dude even do for a living in the first place?

Carpenter or something?

Nothing.

Originally he's a heir to the rubix cube fortune but the Coens left it out to keep people guessing.

Living the dream.

Good way to make a living, if you can get it.

Fuckin A

In other news, I got my Trappers license today.

Speaking of rewatching movies, I must say the Harry Potter movies are just as good as I remembered them being.

that doesn't really communicate whether or not this is a positive conclusion

It is a positive conclusion.

thank you for humoring my hairsplitting

Any time.

It's 2:30am, referendum results are due in five or six hours. This isn't even likely to affect me either way, but I know I'm not going to be able to sleep until then.

My cynical sense is tingling.

It doesn't look good for the yes vote.

Goddamnit.

"The Scottish secession movement is the work of a separatist clique that is rejected by the overwhelming majority of the Scottish people. Scots are a minority culture that has been part of England since its earliest days. They love to sing and dance."

It's no.

'Overwhelming majority' lol

Just like our '99 referendum all over again.

'Overwhelming'

I mean honestly I'm not much fussed about Australia becoming a republic, right. Doing so right now could potentially cement the toxic national self-image that exists. Waiting until we've evolved beyond this third wave of nationalistic racism seems like a better bet.

But becoming a republic on Abbott's watch would piss him off no end, and I'm all for that.

Unfortunately this is going to give Quebec nationalists a sense that they can try again, I've already seen snippets of it on Twitter.

Even though it cost the PQ the provincial election last time around when one of their star candidates turned the provincial election into a bizarre pseudo referendum.

I very much doubt Westminster will allow another ballot box on this matter, not with that turnout and not with a mere 5% majority.
