  1. More violent. It's mitigated by the fact that Werewolf is in b&w, so it doesn't look as bad.
  2. Werewolf by Night was pretty good. Probably the most violent thing Disney Marvel has ever put out, but still pretty damn tame. Not sure where they're going with this. I wish they would have done a better job making it look more like film. It was obviously digital. I don't know all the technical details but I feel like I've seen more film-like digital from YouTubers, albeit very skilled YouTubers. Granted, YouTube is extremely compressed so there's that.
  3. I think he's really talented.

    Vivid Dreams

    Had a super vivid dream last night. It was a Brady Bunch reunion. I was Bobby in the dream. Started innocent enough, but then descended into a Salo-type orgy of decadence and brutality. It was pretty bad. Marcia was a FREAK.
  5. Milroe would be crushed under VY's jockstrap. He's a deer in the headlights. Completely indecisive, can't pull the trigger on throwing the ball or running the ball. And he carries the ball like a bag of potato chips.
  6. As much as I like that movie, it isn't exactly an example of tight storytelling. I will not be seeing Blonde.

    I have to say, I'm absolutely loving this Pure Aero. It's the 2023 version which is softer than previous. Strung with poly (44 lbs, thanks for the tip @troph) to go easy on my arm. I'm spinning the ball like a maniac. It's like a completely different game than I played as a kid when I used to use a Head Graphite Edge. And something in my backhand clicked. I'm hitting it well and the pain has gone away.

    One Wheel

    Here in San Francisco on the weekends they have these big group rides of electric vehicles - bikes, scooters and unicycles. No Onewheels because they can't keep up. There used to be some Onewheels but those riders switched to get more speed. Same thing happens in NYC, LA and other big cities.

    Got it on the first guess
  12. Here's McEnroe and Borg talking about how special Roger is. Something really touching about this - two legends talking about a legend.

    Heardle

    Today's heardle, my daughter used to listen to that song all the time. I still didn't get it. And my daughter hates this artist now.
  14. Going to see Durry, a young brother and sister band that started making music during the pandemic, out of Minnesota. First new band I've really liked in a long time.

    Hear you loud and clear. I'm still trying to get my easy, free swinging form back. I'm mostly using the ball machine. Every time I feel a twinge in my elbow I know my form is off, and I'm muscling or arming the ball instead of using my legs and body for power. I'm trying to mitigate the soreness by stringing my rackets in the mid 40s. I think my forehand is like 70% back but my one handed backhand still needs work. My slice backhand is a basket case. My volleys never went away apparently but my serve and OH suck right now.
  16. Mario sucks
  17. Is Mathis even playing?

    One Wheel

    Faster (and safer) than a one wheel
  19. Maybe I'm lucky I'm not a bookfag because I'm really liking the show so far. Some of the best CGI I've seen, really good acting, and I really like the lead actress.

    Hold off on buying a One Wheel until they fix this issue.

    Fuck sleeves. I can't believe I actually used to play juniors in sleeved shirts. Rafa sleeveless look ftw.
  22. Love this stuff. It probably lacks a little bit of vinegar that other sauces have but the pepper flavor is nice. I just mix in a little rice vinegar when I think it needs it.

    I was a self taught teen player. I played some juniors and got to play a bunch of really good players, including the #2 ranked 14 year old in the country (who thoroughly kicked my ass). Haven't played in like 4 decades. Now my wife signed us up to the local tennis club, mostly for social reasons. She wants to play mixed doubles. I hit for the first time in ages last week. My arm is sore and I hit like shit. After watching the US Open I went ahead and bought a Pure Aero. Pray for my elbow.
