"You're not coming in, not with the mister and the missus gone."
"Now, now, come on, ducky, we've got no time to palaver. We've got a job to do, so ex-CUSE me!"
I actually had to look this up in the script, cuz I'd never heard the word "palaver". It means "to talk at length unproductively", and comes from the Portuguese "palavro", meaning word.
A related English word is parable.
The image is a vintage movie poster for the film "Laura." The poster features a woman with shoulder-length hair, wearing a blue dress, and a man in a trench coat and hat, suggesting a detective theme. The title "Laura" is prominently displayed in large red letters at the center. The names "Gene Tierney" and "Dana Andrews" are featured at the top, indicating the lead actors. Additional names, including "Clifton Vincent," "Judith Webb," "Price Anderson," and "Otto Preminger," are listed at the bottom, along with the production details. The background is a gradient of green and blue, with a red vertical stripe on the left side. The overall design is typical of mid-20th-century movie posters, with bold colors and stylized illustrations.

The image is a colorful infographic featuring 16 animated characters from Disney movies, each associated with a specific personality type from the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). The characters are arranged in four rows, with each row containing four characters. Each character is accompanied by a brief description of their personality type and traits.
The top row includes Elsa (ISTJ), Jasmine (ISFJ), Pocahontas (INFJ), and Maleficent (INTJ). The second row features Megara (ISTP), Esmeralda (ISFP), Belle (INFP), and Alice (INTP). The third row includes Merida (ESTP), Ariel (ESFP), Anna (ENFP), and Mulan (ENTP). The bottom row features Nala (ESTJ), Tiana (ESFJ), Rapunzel (ENFJ), and Marie (ENTJ).
Each character is depicted in their iconic attire, and the descriptions provide insights into their personality traits, such as being quiet, responsible, or having a strong sense of justice. The background of the infographic is purple, and the text is in white and light purple, making it easy to read.

Playing monster chase with kid at the park. I'm amused and pleased with how many littles see me and ask if they can play too.
I always have to be a bit cautious, being an older bearded male playing with kids, even my own. It's never been an issue, but I'm always aware of the optics.
Apparently, I'm just a compelling lava monster the littles really like to power blast or freeze ray when we play.

honestly, any time little kids see a grown up actively playing with a kid, it attracts *ALL* of them.
I take my kid to the trampoline park and play all kinds of loud active games, and I attract little kids like the pied piper. All the other parents are parked around the perimeter staring at their phones…
I think the kids just want adult attention, and will run to whatever adult gives it, no matter how safe or unsafe they look.

As Trump’s trade war rages on into Fall, China still won’t buy American soybeans (assuming farms can even find labor to bring in their crops). But here’s the thing: Farmers aren’t working class. They’re often quite rich, actually.

This new utterly draconic and totally unnecessary biometric border system the EU is implementing fills me with sorrow, frustrstion and shame.
For the UK, there is a Karmic aspect to it though. When still inside the EU they wanted this. Part of all the bad influences the Anglo world has on the EU.

in reply to Michel Morin • • •Cette caricature humoristique, intitulée "Retour en ondes de Jimmy Kimmel," présente deux personnages politiques caricaturés. Le personnage en haut, avec un costume bleu et une cravate verte, flotte en l'air, souriant et levant la main, tandis que le personnage en bas, avec des cheveux blonds et un costume bleu, semble être en train de tomber, avec une expression de surprise et de frustration. Un personnage en costume gris et un autre en costume bleu observent la scène avec un air inquiet. Le texte "Jusqu'ici, tout va bien..." est inscrit dans une bulle, ajoutant une touche de sarcasme. L'ensemble de l'image est une critique humoristique de la situation politique, mettant en scène des personnages emblématiques dans une situation comique.
