I’ve caught a few glimpses of Good Bones which was fun because the daughter is very easy on the eyes.  That’s all I know about them.  So, they’re orthopedists or something?

I would like to see those movies, not just in “movie” format, but also as individual WWoD episodes, complete with Walt’s intro/outro bumpers and the WWoD open.

All I know is: porgs or I riot.

yeah, i do enjoy the 90min UK murder mystery show - Wallender, Jack Taylor, Jack Irish, etc etc.

Yeah, the church sub-plot and Sofia Coppola were just one of the many things why that movie is awful. It almost feels like an entirely different genre, like as if they got Tony Scott or Joel Shumacher to direct and gave them a bag of cocaine and told them: “Go nuts”. That is the only reason I can think of for having a…

“Wait up guys!”

I swear, I cannot and will not ever understand how there’s absolutely no one in fucking Washington DC that will sit this braindead moron and tell him to shut the fuck up.

He could have easily given them both something to do. A lot of the movie is just garbage filler anyway (there’s always a bigger fish), replace it with something that does something. Demonstrate character, develop relationships, create or resolve tension, just something that has an impact besides being cool CG and…

A movie I really enjoyed from ‘99 was Outside Providence, which seems all but forgotten lately. I think of it as thinking person’s American Pie (another gem from that year).

The ending of Lost.  Made me retroactively hate a show I loved.

They will outlaw abortions, but leave newborns to die if their parents can’t pay hospital bills.

It is not 1. It is 9. Order of operations says it is 9. I have a Masters in Math and have taught math for 25 years. Writing 6 divided by 2(1+2) is not the same as writing it as a fraction. When you write something as a fraction, it is the same as using parenthesis around the numerator (the top) and parenthesis around…

Whenever I’m dealing with an automated system that won’t accept my postal code in lieu of a zip, I just use 90210.

You don’t need a car to not die. That isn’t true of health care.

A couple of things spring to mind here.

Yascha Mounk had a good article on Slate today that outlined his concerns, I believe, pretty fairly and concisely. The main problem we’re facing right now is that, I believe, the fairest and most accurate read of the situation requires that we fight our instincts to be team players.

Nope, not really.

Wait, so does Hyundai simply not exist?
Have I been driving a fantasy this entire time??
Is my fantasy even still parked out behind my office right now???
Are there four question marks at the end of this sentence????

Public option was/is a politically expedient stepping stone to single payer. It isn’t a dumb idea. It’s smart politics. When you don’t have the votes for radical change, you keep the ball rolling. That’s fucking progress. It turns out, they didn’t even have the votes for the public option, but somehow the votes for…

I still can’t believe that Sony put all their chips on “What was REALLY going on with Peter Parker’s parents?!?” People like to gripe about the MCU Spidey being so closely connected to Iron Man, but that shit about Peter being genetically modified or whatever? Get the hell out of here with that “chosen one” bullshit.
