So it's your fault trailers are terrible! I kid. I'm fully aware that this will likely be miserable but again, you'll never catch me making assumptions from trailers. Perhaps you had great experiences with making them. I've just been misled too many times.

It looks to me that little people are working for the Supreme Being as well. Perhaps they'll all have broader roles in the actual show. While I'm not optimistic, if there's anything I've learned from Hollywood over the years, do not trust trailers.

Nice glib sounding tagline when someone died. You don't have to actually reference blood when proscribing to "if it bleeds it ledes". Amateurs.

It just makes me angry that they can pump em up as big as they want with nary a scar but the reduction process hasn't advanced a bit. High school girlfriend was forced reduction at 13 and was so self conscious about her scars.

You can see where something had been sprayed on it which sucks. I've been meaning to ask some photography folks how to clean it up.

I've had a lot of roommates over the years so I have no idea where this came from or what it is beyond the obvious. Found it in storage. Not that it necessarily means anything but the photos are on legit photo paper.

I'm at the stage where sitting at a desk with laptop, I'm unable to see the text with my glasses and when I take them off. Progressives are in the near future.

I've learned to never trust trailers anymore. They are 100% what the executives think a movie is about and as we all know, the director and the brass never agree.

My biggest frustration is countertop height. I'm 6'2" and doing any significant amount of prep work destroys my back.

When I first read the post from his daughter was "He brought kids to a Trump rally?" Even if you agreed with all of their bullshit, common sense would suggest it might not be the safest of places.

The USPS was the last government entity to run in the black. Seeing this, the government decided to merge their surplus into national funding and they've been inept ever since. Personally, Bernie's plan to make them a pre Glass-Steagall national bank is probably one of his best ideas.

The correct answer to this heat is spiced rum and lemonade. Unfortunately, my stomach's response to acid doesn't allow for many.

Came here to say this. What bothers me most is the integration of "AI" into commonplace internet spaces that we've been using for years without being informed or having the option to opt out. Even the 3rd party keyboard I use has been enshitified since "AI".

Like, literally the predictive text has gotten markedly worse and there's now a slight delay between keystrokes and production. Just noticed today that "befuddled" wasn't in the library until I used it. I'm horrible at spelling and of late I have to search for the correct spelling of everything.

I'm befuddled as to why we're still concerned about this joker when Janny Wurts just completed an 11 book series that people have been ripping off since '93? I'm constantly amazed by how little she is mentioned in these circles.

I find this perplexing as familiarity with The Thing is in my top 3 marriageable qualities.

I can't read this one because "Democracy Dies Behind Pay Walls" but everything I have read says that the hack took place from a 3rd party cloud storage but I haven't seen that company named. I wonder why att is just taking the heat?

I do think you are unserious if you say "healthcare should be free". "Healthcare should be a public service funded by taxpayers" is easier to defend against the conservative "nothing is free" argument.

I'm writing my master's thesis on the seperation of ethics and rhetoric in higher education and its possible implications on modern discourse. I have to use "possible" because there's no direct line but I really wish I could just finish the paper by shrugging and looking around helplessly.

"Sure, we did some polling but then we found this dude who legally changed his name to 'Most Democrats' and just asked him"

I'm sure there's a lot of what you're saying is true but I assure you that having the same opinion myself has to do with muddled incoherent storytelling in Acolyte vs paced and nuanced in Andor.

I don't think my brother has ever called his son anything but my name his whole life. That being said, I can't believe how shocked people are that when introducing Zelenskyy, Biden might have the president of the country they're at war with on his mind. 🤷
Avatar
The difference between him and frump is that people on the left have actual expectations from Biden while people on the right carry no such expectations for frump. If they started covering him in the same way, it's literally all they could report.

Though brief, I thought Justin Chambers' Brando was amazing.

Don't forget about Shelly Duvall in Time Bandits for her and Palin's exquisite comic relief. Especially with the reboot dropping shortly.
