Please keep responding to magus-21...its been very entertaining.

This is an excellent, highly informed and well written explanation of the difference between fiat currency and crypto “currency”.

Your initial weird reaction seems to also have to do with your internal clock being off. Yes, Rachel Bilson and Anna Kendrick became famous playing teenagers, but those shows/movies were actually a long time ago.

Thank you. The author calling all the value he received from the sale of his shares a “windfall” also bothered me. Activision’s stock price hovered around $90/share for much of the first half of last year, before starting a dip last August to the $80s, to the $70s last September and bottoming out in the low $60s/high…

As was pointed out to me in a recent article (or lets be real, Youtube video) on the subject of lab grown meat, lab grown meat won’t require all the hormones or antibiotics that are pumped into factory farmed meat. This alone makes lab grown meat worth it (not to mention all the other positive considerations [lack of…

Well it’s not like kfc gives a **** about family togetherness.

Yup, personally I wouldn’t have killed the character. Just would have written him out of season 6…say he was injured and is recovering on Mars. Then just recast the character if they ever end up adapting the last 3 books. The time jump is a perfect cover to replace him (or any other actors that don’t return).

Thanks, and FYI, if you finish season 6 and are interested in how it ends, you can pick up and begin reading with book 7 if you don’t want to read books 1-6.

On the Expanse, they’re not even attempting to wrap everything up. There are 9 books and this “final” season is adapting the 6th book. Amazon told the producers the 6th would be the final season after filming on season 5 finished. They were laying the foundation for the story in the final 3 books throughout season 5.…

They shouldn’t, unless they expect to leave hungry.

It’s 100% a comedy, its a black comedy (aka a comedy that deals with dark/tragic/distressing topics).

Gerri texted Roman “Well done, Roman.”

As discussed in other comments above, the final season includes many bits discussing the abruptness of death. One character even (when talking about getting whacked) says: “you probably don’t even hear it when it happens”.

Marvel will never do a wide-release for a $50 m MCU movie in theaters. The movie release calendar is just too packed with $150+ m movies (which are staggered in away so as to not directly compete with one another).

I’m not sure Marvel was counting on Nomadland-stans for box office returns.

I think she’d have succeeded if she’d been allowed to focus on a singular hero/property.

The title of this article and then the content make no sense.

It was his first big budget action directing gig, but not his first directing gig. He had a long history of directing dramas (largely Shakespeare adaptations), dating back to 1989's Henry V, which is why he got the gig for Thor. They wanted a Shakespearian feel to the Asgardian Thor/Loki drama. Though, he also…

Agreed. Moreover, children do even better in a multi-generational, extended family household. The more caregivers upon which childcare can be divided upon the better...
