  1. Meh.... I am torn because on the one hand, DE has an activist judge that is basically making it an impossibility for companies to have disinterested board members without having to prove it all the way up to the DE supreme court. And other cases like the Moelis case that had to be fixed by statute are completely off the rails. The recent proposed changes to 144 in Delaware are probably an overcorrection, but at least they provide some clarity. On the other hand, fuck Elon.
  2. While I wholeheartedly agree, it must be a generational thing because she has a fanbase. But she does seem like she won the "audience member gets to be part of the cast" contest every time she shows up.

    So Spencer is going to find himself in West Texas, kill the ranger and priest, save Teonna and bring her back to Montana, right? Probably with a short temptation from US Marshall Debra Morgan?
  4. I just watched this last night. Really liked it. I was kinda hoping it would end differently, but that's OK. Was really good.
  5. Basically NC State from two years ago, right? Agree with TxTower though.
  6. Separately --- when Chloe calls Saxon a douche a couple of episodes back and he pulls his sunglasses down and laughs, he looks exactly like Risky Business era Tom Cruise. Like, if he wasn't >6'0" I'd wonder if Maria was stepping out on Arnold too with the scientologists 30 years ago.
  7. Wouldn’t be out of character for the actor…. https://www.msn.com/en-xl/lifestyle/other/who-is-the-actor-behind-gaitok-in-the-white-lotus-born-in-london-to-thai-parents-tayme-thapthimthong-was-a-private-bodyguard-for-rapper-way-before-bagging-his-breakout-role-alongside-blackpink-s-lisa/ar-AA1zGQLi
  8. Yeah.... what was he chatting with Fabian about? He isn't a guest.

    Felt like Vasquez was absent last night vs KC where he was winning every ball. May not be his fault. Bukari is great with the ball but his next good service into the box will be his first with us. How can the team get the ball to him in the box as opposed to making dazzling moves around the end line but outside the box. Uzzuni was all over the field. Saw some flashes there. Our attacking wings are much better than the two guys sitting behind them.
  10. Sure. But with respect to what we actually know for certain - Harmony Kobel as Mrs. Selvig (and it was “Mrs” interestingly) was known to Devon last year in some capacity with the baby. I thought Devon presumed because Gemma wasn’t drinking and Gemma gave it away? In any event, I did a piss poor job of watching last week’s episode closely and need to give it a rewatch.
  11. Wasn’t Kobel the night nurse or something for Devin’s baby? They knew each other last year before the finale.
  12. I'll be curious how much they feel like they need to circle back on in the final episodes. I kinda hope some of the loose ends just stay loose and they end the day with just whatever happens in the next 3 hours. - I don't need to have the son come back and do something crazy, the payoff was the conflict and reconciliation between Robbie and McKay - I don't need retribution on the asshole patient. The payoff is that the job is fucking dangerous - I don't need some kind of Dr Robbie mental breakdown. I get it -- it's a fucking hard day for him personally compounded by a worse than normal day in The Pitt. - Interested to see if the Shawn Hatosy character comes back later or not... I think this has been renewed, right?
  13. Palantir? The PayPal Mafia civil war ought to be fun.
  14. What a clown. Whoever said in this thread or elsewhere that Trump has a 9th grade US history class understanding of tariffs is spot on.
  15. What you have to, and clearly don’t, understand is that if you are the leader of the “free” world it’s important that you have no idea how tariffs work in order to effectively implement them in a way that will raise prices, kill jobs, and save this country. Lib!
  16. I've been bouncing back and forth on this. The SOTU (and speeches like it) are important. Anything Dems do will be castigated in the moment and used as justification in the future when MTGs of the world do something worse should we ever have a Dem president again. I was trying to think of a better form of protest. They should stand up and walk out during Trump's first sentence. Perhaps singing some kind of protest song. Hold a simultaneous protest press conference that includes fired Federal workers on the capitol steps. Take the message away from Trump's speech. We all know it will be batshit anyway. So do something that will make it batshit and not newsworthy because you've created a more newsworthy event on the capitol steps.
  17. I wish I could buy into this. I used to say that GOP and then MAGA has done a great job getting people to vote against their own self-interest. I don't believe that anymore. MAGA's self-interest prioritizes persecuting the "other" and having an idol to worship over their own well-being. It's fucking sad. My only hope is that Trump kicks it and no one else has his ability to coalesce the deplorables to action.
  18. Yeah...... they got cute with the assassination culprit. I hate it when shows do that. It's someone we never would have thought or have reason to think about, but they pretend to convey that had we been paying attention we could have figured it out. Maybe being outside the city will make it better next year. A bit of A Book of Eli with a plane.
  19. So in previews for next week…. I didn’t mind this episode. The repeating dinners are redundant. But it’s also what it’s like being at one of those resorts.
  20. The joke is a gay guy is playing him - I think. I’ll allow it. It doesn’t bug me that much because Vance is so fucking boring there really isn’t an impression to do. Kinda like Gerald Ford.
  21. I’m not likening the JAJ Trump that is “in on the joke.” It’s not acerbic enough. It’s almost as if they are worried about being too mean.
  22. I watched first two. It seems pretty good so far. The stylized way they have the Forty Elephants walk around town in Victorian dresses but with the swagger of a street gang like they own the East End is a cool look. I don’t really buy the level of disdain Sugar has for Hezekiah. Not earned imo. You should almost but your buddies took care of things for you. Now you want to kill him? As opposed to just beating him? But whatever, I’m enjoying it. History of the Forty Elephants is interesting. They operated until post-WWII.
  23. Tell that to UNLV when they hired your boy Beard. But point taken.
  24. Fuck it. I want Jai Lucas. He’s a recruiting genius and I’d be willing to give CDC a pass if it ended up not working out.
