MATN holds a special place in my heart. When I was really down and out, I discovered his YOLO run of New Vegas and it got me through quite a few tough nights. When I play sports games I usually put it on as comforting background noise. There’s something oddly comforting about watching a guy meticulously pick through…

We also help with deposits/first months, back rent, and many other financial burdens that are barriers to housing. There is no one answer to battling homelessness, and you’re right that addiction and mental illness play a huge part. But having the means to afford, and keep, housing is also important.

First of all, you’re using the term “learned helplessness” wrong. Second of all, money is a huge issue. I also work with a homeless population, and our organization provides rental assistance to people about to evicted because the cost of reaquiring housing after losing it is astronomically higher than keeping…

Giannis is not LeBron. Comparing the two is unfair to both players.

If you do it right there should be very little broken glass and spillage. My step brother works for Henessy-Moet and uses it as a way to impress clients. You just gotta watch out for people who have had a few and decide to take a sword to a bottle. It can get messy.

God I hope not. Legion and Runaways have been great, and I don’t want Disney’s greasy little mits over interesting comic properties.

Your issue isn’t with regulation; it’s with more companies and corporations failing to meet federal guidelines for their industries. Rules exist for a reason.

The absolutely heartbreaking scene of Gretchen’s depression coming through full force in season 2 is what really sold the show for me. It’s such a braveau piece of acting and directing, and the slow build is amazing.

Jim is not a sweet goofball. He’s an amoral sociopath who believes his choice of victim (Dwight) somehow absolves him of his crimes.

That asshole Virgil still owes me 10 bucks!

I work at a homeless shelter, and every item that comes through our doors that can go through a washing machine and dryer does, and all items are put in trash bags before entering the building. The clients kind of roll their eyes at the whole thing, but we haven’t had a case of bed bugs in 35 years.

Correct. New Mexico has the only good Mexican food in the country. Everywhere else has shitty Tex-Mex or Mission style food that’s basically beans and beef smothered in melted cheese and “green sauce.”

I had to turn away from the TV. Basketball injuries, especially leg injuries, are somehow so much worse than anything else.

He played Senator Vreenak in the DS9 episode “In the Pale Moonlight.” Also, the lady who plays Sydney in Pontypool is actually his wife!

Stephen McHattie’s voice kind of makes the movie. He has such a drawling, sarcastic tone that slowly morphs into horror. He’s also in my favorite Trek episode of all time as an asshole Romulan.

I’m from ABQ, and the first thing people ask me is “is it like Breaking Bad?” I mean, yeah, it’s a crime ridden city with lots of problems, but let’s not add constant fan vandalism to that list. I used to work at the hotel next to billboard Jimmy climbed up in BCS, and I remember the film crews coming in and getting…

Breaking Bad used a local Albuquerque chain called Twisters for Pollos Hermanos. My grandparents live near the actual location they filmed at, and they have a big plaque and play Breaking Bad all day. Twisters genuinely has the best breakfast burritos in the country. Their chicken is also very good.

As some one who works with a homeless population in an extremely expensive city: fuck you and your “poor is a choice” argument.

I spent a little while working at a college in Utah, and it was fascinating seeing all the young Mormon men (always men) wearing the “PORN KILLS LOVE” shirts. Most of them were returned missionaries and believed it was their moral obligation to fight this menace of self love.

Pretty much, yeah. On the outside are 36 Marx generators running in parallel, which then fire through the 12 storage lines into the center section. I worked on the repair and replace side of things so I didn’t get into the hard science of it all, but Z is considered a particle beam fusion accelerator. It’s location,…
