Holy shit this; I’m shocked at these comments on every post and at how many people out there are apparently using IE with no ad-blocker.

How long have you been on the internet without using an ad blocker? Damm dude, you’re just raw-dogging it out here, get some protection.
Foundation started out well but went off the rails pretty quickly; I’d say that everything after the first book was terrible. By the second book they’d more or less abandoned the whole psychohistory thing - with the Mule being impossible to predict and ruining Seldon’s plans - which was a big part of the appeal in the…
As someone who pretty much only buys used cars I’m really interested to see what the used market for EV’s is going to be like. Is anyone going to roll the dice on a 10 year old model 3 knowing that the battery will cost $7k to repair? Once these things get five years old they’re going to get passed around like hot…
He was also drafted by a team that spent years flagrantly tanking to such an extreme degree that the league had to change the draft rules to get them to stop.
Or look at the Raptors; Siakam, Van Vleet, and Powell all made meaningful contributions in this years NBA finals and were all in the G-league as recently as two years ago. The Spurs have been showing the league how important player development is for years and finally other teams are starting to pay attention and not…
Honestly Smith feels way worse than Adam Sandler these days. I never thought I’d be defending Adam Sandler but he does occasionally do something with a bit of artistic merit and even though most of his movies are the same old shit it at least feels like he’s trying to earn his paycheque most of the time.
The first Zombieland was crassly exploitative of the zombie movement that had been building in pop-culture throughout the ‘00’s. It was a family friendly road-trip movie that slapped some zombies in the background to join in on the fad; if it had been made in the 90’s it would have been vampires but zombies were…
The entire Lakers team, including LeBron, were in China to play pre-season exhibition games when Morey made his tweet. That’s why he’s saying Morey could have waited a week - let everybody get back home then make inflammatory political statements about an authoritarian government.
By all means fly to China and start publicly talking shit about the government. That’s what you want LeBron to do, right? I’m personally not going to do that as the thought terrifies me and I can’t say I blame LeBron for not wanting to either but I guess that just makes me a commie bootlicker.
If LeBron felt an apprehension of personal danger as a politically outspoken person in fucking China I think we need to respect that and not just call him a pussy.
Perhaps you should look up the meaning of the word colleague.
>LeBron was not in the slightest danger
If my employer sent me on a business trip to China and while I was there one of my colleagues - who was safely at home in the US - made political tweets critical of the Chinese government I’d be pissed off too. Sure LeBron stuck his foot in his mouth but I think we need to cut him a bit more slack than he’s currently…
As someone with kids I can’t imagine going back to a car until the kids are much older. I’m constantly hauling around all kinds of stuff that would be too big or awkward to fit into a standard trunk that I’d be stuck tying to the roof of a sedan. I could make it work but why bother?
It’s not like the Amish aren’t allowed to use any modern technology. Just because an Amish person was using a calculator you can’t assume they’re faking or whatever.
I mean, I’m sure I’ll get called a bootlicker here but I can sort of understand what LeBron is saying. If I was the face of my organization and happened to be physically in China I’d be pretty fucking pissed if some other employee started tweeting shit about the Chinese government from the safety of the US.
Still better than airline seats since they don’t recline.
Yeah this right here; it becomes a lot harder once you’ve already eliminated all of the low hanging fruit.
Ok cool, I haven’t seen the show in a while. That doesn’t really change my opinion that giving Walter a heroes death kind of deflates his entire character arc. It’s like the show was trying to have it both ways; they wanted to still have him go out like a badass to please the fans who never really understood that he…
