  1. I'm 95% sure I watched Alien: Covenant but don't have a single memory of it.
  2. That birthday wish is funny. It only covers the easy part of the job - the part even a Charlie Strong can do - "molding young men" yadda yadda yadda. But winning on the field? Eh, not my department. That's on ya'll. Good luck! Damn coach, couldn't even wish for 6-6?
  3. His Irish blush, potato sack physique, and the rumpled, slept-in condition of all his clothes suggests a Rumlin weekend bender is what Elko calls cutting back.
  4. Thanks hahaha
  5. Nooo why? Just let em jack another airball.
  6. How do you say regarded in French?
  7. France going Serbia cold from three. 0 for how many in a row now?
  8. Reznor and Ross have made some of my favorite soundtracks. A+ hire.
  9. Even before the reviews started rolling in, I could see this coming. Just... why? Who was clamoring for a Borderlands movie?
  10. Heh. Was Booker even touched?
  11. Never heard the term nursery slopes. 😂
  12. I haven't watched it in years- but Bojack Horseman. It was late, I was really high, and had no idea what to expect. Didn't even know it was an adult cartoon. And I was fucking breathless with laughter from the start. Every joke landed for me.
  13. Legit projection? Or more of a "Bronny in the first round so I get more clicks" projection?
  14. When I see a breakdancer in action, I can't shake the feeling that I'm supposed to throw newspapers at them.
  15. Wow. I guess I did? Is this an inflation thing? GoT certainly felt bigger and more expensive.
  16. You know what? You're absolutely right. Had to google Bubba Smith, but holy shit. Dick Butkus?!
  17. TIL Dana bleepin Carvey was in a helicopter show called Blue Thunder.
  18. It's also an astonishing technical achievement. Is there a game that looks better on last gen consoles? When I got my new 4k TV back in January, I fired it up to test my PS4 Pro's HDR setting or whatever. Still looked stunning.
  19. And when Alicent "skinny dips," she wears a white slip thing that's not even see through when soaking wet. #NotMyGoT
  20. Rehashing a season one take here, but yeah..if it feels like we're watching budget Game of Thrones, it's cause we literally are. Warner Bros/Discover is gonna be relentlessly tugging on these udders for years to come. The Daemon payoff was a cool moment even though it took too long to get there. It did set the table for a potentially good next season. Since I'm just not as into this as GoT, the wait doesn't bother me as much. With GoT I had to start reading the books because the wait was killing me.
  21. Also meant to add - if his beliefs aren't causing real damage like wrecking interpersonal relationships or his career, draining his finances, etc, it's probably not worth trying to change his point of view.
  22. This is a topic I'm interested in. Actually just started this book Cults, Conspiracies, and Secret Societies by Arthur Goldwag yesterday. One topic it explores is the psychology of a conspiracy theorist and why they believe, which is what really interests me. There are resources out there that offer advice on how to reach and deprogram people, especially with all the Qanon and Q-adjacent shit that's exploded in recent years. There are subreddits like r/QanonCasualties and r/ReQovery that have stories from friends/family/loved of Q people, and from reformed/recovering conspiracy theorists themselves. Can't really offer any advice other than to seek out helpful resources. I just know it's a long road to change their mind. And there are constructive ways of communicating. It is possible but I dunno about older people like 50 or 60+.
