  1. you talking about Acton, the Sanderfer MBA school? i believe they got run out of Texas and are now in Spain. i also seem to recall some association with Jordan Peterson, a scholarship or something 😝...this current iteration was more clever in picking a name, anyway lol
  2. i quite literally took this pic not even a week ago! 😮 we were high af and wanted to watch something 'stupid and funny'... glad we did ❤️ The Doors, Heat, and Tombstone were iconic roles for me. RIP Iceman 😞
  3. is that some sort of imagined fantasy script or did that actually happen?
  4. how bout some negrep for our entire fucking shitshow, huh?? 😝
  5. this may be posted somewhere else? i had no idea he was filibustering... i'm pretty ambivalent about Booker, but it's something? at least he seems awake. https://www.npr.org/2025/04/01/nx-s1-5347318/cory-booker-senate-speech ETA i see Brazilhorn just mentioned it above lol
  6. the fucking problem with Brisket's fucking over-the-top gotdamn never-ending litany of bitching and moaning doomsday hyperbole...is he's basically been right about everything.
  7. i wasn't really sure the first few eps, they were doing more scenes with yoga and meditation and 'enlightenment' stuff...but once they got into the character stories exclusively i have really enjoyed it. Frank, Rick/Chelsea, and the trio are the most interesting stories, but i also love what PP is doing on her role. i think for me the biggest difference this season is...S1 was freaking Hawaii and S2 Italy was breathtaking. Thailand basically looks...hot, humid, buggy, and not particularly enjoyable. some of the shots are incredible (like the yacht among the islands) but overall everything generally looks hazy, the sunlight is very desaturated, i'm pretty sure we haven't seen an actual blue sky since the season started. even when the guests are supposedly sunbathing around the pool, there's no direct sunlight. the light constantly looks like dusk. and apparently i do not like it lol. i have wondered if that's just the season during which they decided to film or if the climate is always like that...🤔
  8. weird vibe bt Lochlan and Piper at the monastery. combined with the weirdness bt Lochlan and Saxon...Lochlan is the common denominator, so he may be the weird one. Saxon's your basic frat-bro douchebag.
  9. apparently he had to flee for "god's country" 😄 im pretty sure he's exactly who he appears to be.
  10. yep, absolutely! PTA, Coens, and Tarantino... magnificent trio. might not always be the best ever, but they consistently make original, interesting and usually fantastic films!
  11. reminds me...i'm visiting a variety of friends in Texas rn, people generally not as 'online' as me, friends that still work or are generally busy with life, kids, etc... and i've kind of been surprised at how the 'fuck 'em, let it burn, they did this to themselves' attitude is pretty much ubiquitous 🤨 like, surly is surly and we're a special lot of assholes lol, i don't often assume the attitudes/opinions here are going to permeate into the real world (i've learned this during many football seasons 😆)...but the average people in the streets do seem to be pretty unanimously and enthusiastically rooting for the leopards to gorge themselves.
  12. hahaha it's pretty incredible how well he does female characters...versus Taylor Sheridan 🤣

    whoever said nothing good is going to happen to anybody on this show was correct 😆
  14. gonna make W look like Churchill. already made Palin look like a Rhodes Scholar.
  15. Trump admin response when it does:
  16. speaking of... has FEMA $$ made it to the ground there? i know he was threatening to withhold it unless Gavin blew him or whatever... did anything ever come of that? or was Trump a fucking shit-filled gargoyle as usual...
  17. on the bright side, the next time one of the super red gulf states gets decimated by a Cat4, they can take solace in the fact their demise was heightened by the too warm waters of the the Gulf of AMERICA 🇺🇸
  18. the CO Capitol picture is coming down i really, really hope they just stick with 'Trump said he would prefer no picture at all over the one that hangs in the Colorado Capitol.'
  19. didn't that film just win an Oscar?? seems like that should make this a big story...
