Some of us don’t have the luxury of moving to East Bumfuck to save a few bucks on rent.

Well, the EU ruled it is a carcinogen, and the WHO identified it as a probable carcinogen in 2016. With the current leadership of the EPA I am definitely more inclined to believe the EU and WHO.

Monsanto Kills.

Gauntlet II, actually. I wasted an awful lot of quarters on that game.

“GOP” should be changed to “Grifters Only Party.”

This needs more stars. Supermassive ones, specifically.

I guess one could say that Original Gravity was the real OG.

We are even more fucked because we will do nothing about this report.

I’m guessing this war will be less well received than the one against Iraq. Hopefully the media don’t turn out to be cheerleaders again.

My son was born in 2011. The MCU has been part of his entire life.

Not that asteroids aren’t an issue but if we don’t get our shit together on global warming ASAFP it may not matter the next time the planet experiences an asteroid strike.

Hopefully the spinoffs will be better than AfterMASH.

My wife is not a nerd (by a longshot) but once she started watching the series - somewhere around Ultron - she wanted to see the rest of the movies. So much so that we joined the Disney Movie Club to collect the older movies with their 5 for 1 deal or whatever it was.

Her movie is due out next year.
