CNN posted a timely story on what's going on with the battle over the Friday the 13th rights and interviewed your favorite(?) lawyer/slasher victim. Give it a gander.

The "Friday the 13th" title is owned by New Line films. Screenwriters pretty much never own the titles to their movies (which are covered by trademark, not copyright law).
@Zernerlaw @LarryZerner So even though Miller owns the rights to the original screenplay, he can't actually use the title "Friday the 13th" for any projects he might want to develop? Am I understanding that correctly?

This is a great thread. But this one is probably one of the best pieces of advice to live a happier life. That Epictetus really knew his shit.
Grab the smooth handle
Epictetus: “every situation has two handles.”
E.g. someone is rude to you: you can take it personally and get pissed off OR you can tell yourself they're having a bad day, it has nothing to do with you, & shrug it off.
Always grab the smoother handle.
Nils Bohlin, while with Volvo, invented the three-point safety belt, a standard in the modern automobile.
Bohlin was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2002.

Be afraid … be very afraid … if you do not go along with party line … 1984?
Interesting article that RNA just so happens to replicate and mutate “all by itself.” Still begs the big big question: so, what underlying force/influence/property/magic/divine influence causes lifeless inert atoms to form molecules like RNA and DNA to replicate and mutate?

In the 1960s, the molecular biologist Sol Spiegelman created a synthetic mutating strand of RNA and nicknamed it “the little monster.” His studies were the world’s first experimental demonstration of Darwinian evolution at the molecular level. https://www.quantamagazine.org/in-test-tubes-rna-molecules-evolve-into-a-tiny-ecosystem-20220505/
