  1. My favorite writer. That more of you do not subscribe to Defector is a shame. Maybe st f his writing is on there and it’s awesome.
  2. I still cannot watch this show again. It was amazing and among the handful of best shows I have ever watched, but it takes quite a bit out of you.
  3. It might be suspension of disbelief. One film I can recall that being the case is my favorite Christmas movie, Christmas Vacation. Clark works in the city, lives in the suburbs and then he’s in the Rockies looking for a Christmas tree.
  4. I don't have any gigantic fish to post here, but I do love to fish. If any of y'all ever stop through Oahu and want a totally relaxing day of shore fishing, there's a spot I go to at Waimanalo Beach. I swim my line out about a 100 yards or so and drop it with 3-5 oz. triangle sinker. I am a patient fisherman so I just put some squid or cut bait on the line and enjoy the day and usually bring a book to read until I hear the line start to go out quickly.
  5. I long ago reached the point where I thought that the Democrats should just say the heck with it all and shut it down. Does TFG want this? You bet. He'll claim a win either way and his cult will lap that up as the truth. He wants to cut the federal workforce even more and consolidate his grip on power. He was going to do this at some point even if they had agreed on a budget. It's like Chamberlain saying he secured "Peace for our time." You CANNOT trust a single thing TFG says. His word is as meaningless as anything Hitler ever agreed to. Torch it and let everything go straight in the toilet and hang this around the people who wanted this as our government.
  6. I just want to add that of all of the ridiculous praise heaped on this troll that the absolute last thing I could've thought would happen is PAUL FINEBAUM wanting to run for the senate because of this death. Give me the shovel and I'd gladly sideswipe his gigantic dumbo-sized ears. This timeline is just, to borrow a word from Anthony McAuliffe, NUTS in a go to hell kind of way.
  7. I remember watching his father years ago at the state tournament. My first impression of his dad was that he wasn’t very athletic and had zero business playing high major basketball after watching him face plant against Mexia if I remember correctly. He just didn’t have the athleticism to succeed unless it was against guys that would wind up playing in the Sun Belt. Hopefully for the Horns his son turns out far better than his father. Pretty low bar, but the farther the fruit falls from the tree on this one the better for Miller and Co.
  8. Used to work right down the street. The 35 mile drive to work was easily the most beautiful one I have ever had.
  9. And then call it in the day it is finished.
  10. I felt like the living situation was pretty easy to understand, especially in 2025 in America. There was some definite middle finger going towards the government there with what his character was doing.
  11. I will make this brief because I am in agreement with your words wholeheartedly. I think it might be good for us to have a bit of organization in trying to stand up to fascism. Talking about it here won’t do much to reverse already crossing the fascism rubicon. I think it would in general be good to be able to network and help folks when they need it until we get to the other side of this. They will. Guaranteed. TFG’s hold on them is strong.
  12. Suffolk is filled with cult members. Massive amounts of them. I have seen them in action at Yankee Stadium. The things I heard said to Jay Bruce in 2017 when he was with Cleveland pale in comparison to what Rory and his guys heard. Bruce wouldn’t repeat any of it after the game. He just laughed at the end of the 8th inning. It was wild to see kids yelling at him. Explain what happened as New York cult members doing what they do at sporting events. It will only get worse next year at the World Cup.
  13. Out here MMA is really popular. I asked a guy what makes it so popular here and he told me that it’s just the culture of Hawai’i and fighting with your bare fists. Made sense I guess. Mainland? Yeah forget that. Don’t want to be anywhere near those fights or the people who are fans.
  14. Having spent a really good amount of time around Long Islanders, specifically ones from Suffolk County, I expected that. I was absolutely glad to see the US FAFO and not only lose, but have the Europeans laugh at them and TFG. More of that please.
  15. If you see these people in the wild just ask them what foreign land he is from and where is it on the flat earth map.
  16. Well now you have to infiltrate a group and eventually reveal to them that you are one of the soldiers that comes from the future to tell them their whole movement ends in disaster.
  17. Reading Crabwalk by Gunter Grass. Fiction is not my thing, but the book is good.
  18. I hope the US scores zero goals in their matches. Just a whole bunch of nothing. Hopefully Mexico and Canada both advance from their groups.
  19. “You can’t spell Citrus without UT.”
  20. The pain he brought to the already discovered world extended all the way to you and the price you had to pay.
  21. It’s different when you have zero expectations and no one has you as a big game outside of playing Arizona. Now ASU is everyone’s big game in the conference and there is no Skattebo back there to just say “screw it and just give me the ball.” Tyson is dependent upon his QB getting him the ball in space. Leavitt has moments where you see a guy that a GM will hand an NFL team over to and then he has some real head scratchers. A lot of words to say most of this mental for him and the team. Leavitt gets in a groove and Tyson stays on the field we can play with anyone. The defense is really good this season. I love the ends and how they get up the field so quick.
  22. The chase was just incredible in how it was shot. That alone needs to get it every cinematography award possible. How it got set up was genius.
