  1. I think we can all see what's coming; Sofia/Rush help the mom via therapy realize Oz killed her other little boys and lied about it for 40 years and upon realization, right before she dies, she calls him a monster and has deep, moral and existential regret for her entire life (and his) and that emotional torture is delicious to Sofia, and it hardens Oz and makes him look even more horrible and villianous as his origin story nears completions. Bonus points if, with Vic who she disdained upon first meeting, she has built some sort of redemption relationship with and grown on him and she warns him to run away or have nothing to do with her son Oz, blah blah. Lazy and contrived plotting if this is what we get. The acting better be off the charts to make it work.
  2. Not the nerds!
  3. What was that Bill Burr quote? White women swung their Gucci booted feet over the fence to piggyback on the MeToo movement when it was convenient.
  4. Agreed. And the guy who made the point about hardcore porn at fingertips for kids and the normalization isn't wrong just because he's wrong about most things.
  5. Dang,went to bed after PA. Woke up to see WI, MI, AZ, NV & popular vote. This was a rout. Gonna be a lot Wednesday Morning QB'ing.
  6. And if that is the case, there goes the argument of doing away with electoral college for popular vote. The biggest problem with this election is not necessarily Trump winning President. It's the R's getting a majority in congress along with Trump winning presidency. You want a gridlock, at the very least.
  7. I think this is right. The D party is very diverse though, so a straight, white man with good political instincts wouldn't make it through a primary, though.
  8. "Collin Allred wants drag shows on US Military bases". Can we all agree that the end of political ads will be welcomed by 100% of the voting population?
  9. The guy on MSNBC with the Harris sign in the back just said whomever wins NC, wins the Presidency.
  10. My work just announced we get the whole day off on Tuesday Nov 5th, so I can vote then and not worry about a line! woohoo
  11. I don't think so. It's like the inverse of the Joker/Harley Quinn lore. The male doctor fell in love with the inmate woman. And I think he helped her get out, etc.

    Cart Narcs

    I've never not had someone take the cart when I've said, "hey, here you go buddy. I left a little gas in it for you."
  13. Donald Trump has been criticized for canceling a series of campaign events so close to the election. But he’s making time for a potentially buzzy appearance: an interview with Joe Rogan, the podcasting star. It’s the latest sign that both he and Vice President Kamala Harris are adapting to the changing media landscape, where a new generation of podcasters attract the kind of voters the candidates need to reach. Both Trump and Harris have reportedly sought out Rogan. It’s not hard to see why: “The Joe Rogan Experience” has 14.5 million followers on Spotify alone, and at least as many on Instagram and YouTube. About 80 percent of listeners are believed to be male, and roughly half are under 35. That’s a highly coveted demographic. Harris’s campaign is said to have been in talks to appear on Rogan’s show as well, though it’s unclear whether she has secured a spot. Rogan himself has criticized both the Democratic and Republican candidates. He said two years ago that he wouldn’t have Trump on his show, and has criticized Harris. (That said, last month Rogan marveled at “the amazing job” her campaign had done after President Biden dropped out.)
  14. The perfectly placed generator that still works to fire up the entire Penguin Lair which ostensibly sat idly for 30+ years was as comic book as it gets. Still, I'm enjoying the series. Loved the Viti goodbye, out of the blue. Was wondering how they were going to square that circle with his "loyalty". I had almost forgotten we were in Gotham in a Batman universe, so I think they remind us and we see a Batman sighting and cameo in the finale.
  15. This game, in my opinion, has ended Quinn Ewers for UT. This should be Arch Mannings team. Quinn should have had 6 INTs, he can’t move in the pocket, and he can’t throw with the deep ball with touch anymore. He can barely make the middle and short throws. He’s either mentally cracked or physically hurt, but either way it’s time to move to option 1b more permanently. Arch came in completely cold and 3 weeks removed from game action, and still flashed more capability and vim and vigor. The last two drives of Quinn’s in particular were awful.
  16. Respectfully, wrong. Negotiations are getting worse because Hamas is losing whatever alternatives and leverage they had. Being decimated and wiped out systematically all they have left are the hostages. They get rid of the hostages and they are DONE and so they simply can't do it. Bibi actually gave a verbal of a guarantee to the captors that they can “leave and live” if they let the hostages go. Hamas won't because it will mean complete failure and defeat. That's on Hamas, not Israel.
  17. zero chance this guy is having a $200k wedding. This is just a latent attempt to rage-bait people into engagement (and virality, which I guess works as it's here?) so he can monetize. In the thick of it, this guy is not.
  18. Israel, which can now add Sinwar’s death to its recent string of victories, will interpret Sinwar’s death as a vindication of its decisions both to a) not do another deal with him and b) proceed with a ground operation in Rafah (where they eventually found him) despite all the international pressure earlier this year. Gotta say, when you are right, you are right and in hindsight, folks oughta give a little credit to not caving to international pressure and doing a dirty job that needed to be done.
  19. Ariana Grande can sing and Selena Gomez is a certified capital-B Billionaire (mostly on makeup). I'm barely in society, rarely touch grass, and even I know these things.
  20. I didn't watch the trailer for next week but is it about what Penguin did to betray Sofia? I'm so confused about all that-- what could Penguin have done to get Carmine, her dad, to put her Arkham? Has it already been stated and I missed it?
  21. Speaking of Denzel. I yelled at the kids the other day, "SHOE PROGRAM! 23 HOUR LOCK DOWN!"
  22. Victor came to life for me this week finally. Gave him some 3D with the backstory, a moral arc, a rubicon to cross at the bus station, some redemption, etc. I hope Victor becomes some gangland or henchmen from the rogue gallery and this is his stealth origin story, but I don't think we are that lucky (and I don't know the lore well enough or not to know). This show is fantastic to me and Collin Ferrel is a tour de force. Helo isn't entirely wrong, as the writing/plot can be a bit episodic or soapy, but it is a comic book and gangland mash up, so some of that is forgivable. They are getting the balance right 90% of the time.
  23. It's interesting the only two females in the cast (at least from what I remember) are very mentally ill. The mom swivel chairs from dementia to salient, if a bit cruel, ambition and narcissism (e.g. If my son is a nothing, am I a nothing?). Reminds me of the R-rated version of the mom in Kindergarten cop.
  24. I watched the deleted joker scene on the first page someone posted and thought how gruesome and dark joker looks. It makes Ledger’s joker look downright squeaky clean. I caught The Batman (2022) on HBO after watching ep 1 of Penguin and forgot how awesome Paul Dano was.
  25. That video is super sweet and wholesome. Good for her! America’s Sweetheart.
