The rats and the gun, and this isn’t remotely difficult. You get more than 100 rats per opponent, and a fucking gun to pick them off with as they fend off rat swarms. The hawks are really your only concern at that point.

I suspect, when all is said and done, Deadpool is going to prove far more influential for proving that comic book action films can be a hard-“R” than Wonder Woman for being the first well-made, female-driven comic book action film.

There is no material difference between direct public subsidies and the provisions Steinberg mentioned

Snyder’s Superman wasn’t even constructed to begin with

Could you be worse—you could be shadowbanned entirely.

that famously had a contributor on the record state that she was too smart to be raped

Shot quality absolutely exists, unless you’d happily trade Ovechkin one-timers from the left circle for Brooks Orpik wristers from the blueline.

This reminds me of the conversation yesterday regarding a woman who left her life in limbo waiting to be proposed to by her bf and her frustration that he didn’t. She didn’t feel it was her place, or it wasn’t romantic to pressure him.

Not quite as extreme, but it probably took about 6 months of me paying rent for a room I never slept in and rarely visited before my girlfriend and I decided I should just get on her lease. There’s quite a bit of mental security that comes with having your own place that you can hypothetically fall back on (to say…

More specifically, if he’s maintaining his own separate place but never really staying there, it’s time for a serious conversation about whether he should just move in, and about some ground rules for sharing the burden of hosting sexytimes if he doesn’t.

The Bengals wish they could be that successful in the regular season.

Fun Fact: Alex Ovechkin has the most goals among active NHL players dating back to the start of the 1999-2000 season. When Iginla officially retires, it will be the most dating back to 1996-1997.

Is there a single game next weekend that’s going to be remotely compelling or dramatic, though? Best I can tell, there’s only one game on the schedule featuring two teams still alive for playoff contention (Falcons-Panthers) and even that game is likely to be anticlimactic after the Saints beat the piss out of Tampa.

The Star Wars brand is still bomb-proof, but The Last Jedi’s 6-day domestic cumulative being ~$90M behind where The Force Awakens was has to be extremely disappointing for Disney.

The whole point of DJ’s betrayal is wrapped in the larger message the Canto Bight sequence of The Last Jedi is meant to hammer home: there’s a whole galaxy of people out there who are invested in the cyclical rise and fall of Republics and Empires because it’s good for filling their pockets rather than it being good…

Didn’t we establish this years ago?

Hank was obviously better than Talbot at the time. Hank was also obviously not ~$4M/year better than Talbot at the time.

In fairness to those fans, Talbot at $4.1M against the cap is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more valuable than Hank at $8.5.

Did you just call it “za?”

A friend of mine puts butter on his sandwiches. He says it’s something he picked up from his family in central Kentucky. That’s weird, right?
