These same people will also tell you that the fight over slavery wasn’t the catalyst for the war. It was about state’s rights or textiles, or something.

Possibility? I guess that’s technically true in the same sense that it’s a possibility that we could all by wiped out by a comet by then. A veto requires 2/3rds majority in the House and Senate to override. You couldn’t get 2/3rds of the legislature to agree that puppies are cute.

Hmm, if only the NCAA and the Olympics had their governing bodies that could establish rules about who is/isn’t qualified to compete in their competitions. Then maybe we could leave it up to them and the “small government” Republicans in Congress wouldn’t waste their time on pointless crap like this.

Also, is it just Netflix that always makes you go through their website to cancel the subscription? I routinely toggle my subscriptions on/off through my phone depending on what I’m watching. I know Roku and Apple TV have the same type of organized page to lets you know your current apps and when they renew but…

I think it was Prince Paul on a podcast recently that told a story about being on tour with Public Enemy. He said they checked into a hotel that had a grand piano in the lobby and Flav casually sat down and started playing some classical piece (Bach, Beethoven, I forgot which) and that they were all floored.…

It’s also difficult since these same people embraced being called “deplorable”. How do you insult people with no shame?

This was my same thought too. Capitalism actually demands that you try to expand to the widest, most diverse customer base as possible with your product. Equity, in that sense, is the most American thing a corporation could do.

It’s worse now. Book were banned in school in the 80's because of their content: explicit sexual content, explicit language. The idea generally being it’s not suitable for children so if they want to read that material they’ll have to do it outside of school or later in life when they’re better equipped to understand…

I’ve liked all the ones that did a smaller genre movie.

I finally watched Black Adam last night, and oof, it was not good. But yeah, at this point there is no way for The Rock to “disappear” into a role. You’re always watching some version of his persona. While some great actors like Jack Nicholson can coast on their persona in multiple roles and still turn in quality…

Now they can flesh out stories of Boomhauer’s days as a Texas Ranger.

I seriously thought that Toby Huss voiced Dale until just now. I suppose in large part because he looks like him. Every time I saw “The Wiz” episode of Seinfeld I would think “Oh, that’s Dale”.

Lucky slips on peepee in AT&T Stadium and successfully sues Jerry Jones for millions.

When We Were Young being the exception. That lineup seems laser focused on a particular demographic.

It was the first game I bought for my Xbox S so maybe I didn’t get the bugginess that everyone else complained about but I really enjoyed the game. I’ve played through the story mode twice with different characters. I’ve been hoping for a GTA V style online update to be able to play against other players in that settin…

When I first heard the title I assumed it was going to be a creature feature with the bear mauling it’s way through a small town. The fact that it seems to be more fleshed out as a dark comedy about a a cartel losing it’s shipment seems more promising.

I can honestly say the only movie mentioned that I had heard of prior to watching was obviously Mad Max/The Road Warrior but if nothing else those movies looked entertaining as hell.

That def tracks with the fact that he hung that stunt woman off the hood of a speeding car for two days for the final sequence in Death Proof.

I saw a doc recently about Australian grind house cinema and of course QT is in it raving about every movie they’re talking about. Let’s just say his taste are peculiar, if not leaning towards straight up shlock. I honestly think his beef with superhero movies is that they’re not bloody enough.

And hillbillies would prefer to be known as “sons of the soil” but it ain’t gonna happen.
