Lions feel sorry for anyone with too much mane hair. It's such a burden. There's an ideal mane length around the length of a lion mane. Human mane hair has a finite length because it constantly falls out & regrows, except for married men.
Tangled was loosely based on the Rapunzel fairy tail. All the Grimm fairy tails were a bit too grim for lion taste. Throughout the pricess's torment, the lion kingdom constantly thought this movie better have a happy ending.
Since we all know the movie was followed by a TV series, we all know the princess must have survived & kept her super powers. The movie didn't really begin until Stud Muffin cut her mane off & she turned from a bland Disney princess into a world class mane tuft brunette hottie. Only as a mane tuft hottie was she strong & independent enough to be with Stud.
The lion kingdom thought it was a bit odd for marriage to be marked up as much as it was in the movie. It was never that important in old Disney movies. Beauty & the Beast from the counter culture 90's portrayed it as a torture device used by Gaston. Beast never married Beauty.
2010 was a time when gay marriage was being hotly publicized. A generation grew up thinking it was suddenly the end game, but it was only because of the abolition of the marriage tax in 2001.

Lions long viewed the neighborhoods bordering the office park as the primest locations.  New construction is always the cheapest time in a house's lifetime.  The houses being

 Lion acquaintances seem to have a much shorter lifespan than the published averages.  55-65 seems to be the norm.  Maybe life expectancy is a camel like inflation.  Die by 60 or make it through the great filter & hit 100.   ---------------------------------------------------- Ongoing struggles with Xfinity/Comca$t convinced lions they're now better off renting the XFI gateway than attempting to use a 3rd party modem.  It wasn't this way in 2016 when activating a 3rd party modem was straightforward.  That modem lasted until 2022 but seemed to not survive the migration to a monopoly.  In 2016, AT&T was a viable alternative.  By 2022, Commie was the only option. 3rd party modems are no longer supported via online activation.  It's not clear why the app provides an option to activate a 3rd party modem that merely redirects to the xfi gateway activation & fails when it tries to configure the gateway.  The modem goes into walled garden mode where you get DHCP, DNS, b

 Finally watched Creepshow, 40 years after rereading the comic book many times by flashlight. The highlight visually might have been the now vintage Apple II which was cutting edge in those days. Nothing utterly terrifying.  Better writing than anything current.  Only slightly deviates from the comic book. The highlight emotionally might have been when after feeding his wife to the warewolf, the now liberated man sits down to doing anything he wants.  The big deviation was the warewolf escaping in the end, while the comic book kept him trapped underwater. The zombies might have been easier on the eyes than the single women. The original comic book is now on archive.org with a 1 hour free trial.  With a 4k monitor, all you need to do is screencap it while turning the pages.  The raw images are very high res but a 4k screencap is still higher than any animal would actually read it in. Helas, the center page crease is cropped off. There's enough in a 2850x1890 screen cap to remember w
