Grim. First saw Threads about 9-10 years ago. Not sure I want to see it a second time. Have you ever read Black Rain by Masuji Ibuse? It is the only thing close to Threads I've encountered. Well worth reading.

you should mow it at least once a year and remove the clippings to reduce the soil fertility, to better allow wildflowers to compete with the grass.
Grim.We actually don't own a mower at this point, but i plan to buy a scythe sometime this summer.
South Australia and Queensland remain the only states where the gay panic defence can still be used.
Until the late 70s, the gay-panic defence was not a defence of provocation but of insanity. Thomas Poberezny-Lynch tells me: “The logic went that the accused would say the deceased made a sexual advance towards me and that triggered my latent homosexuality which then caused me to suffer a bout of insanity – because homosexuality was considered a mental illness at the time – and therefore inflict fatal violence upon the deceased. And because at the time of the death I was insane, I cannot be held legally responsible for my actions, and I can’t be found guilty of murder.”
Since homosexuality has not officially been considered a mental illness since 1973 the defence has morphed into a more straightforward matter of “he came on to me and I flipped out”.
