Can we please all agree to stop spreading the false message that Joe Biden is a sure win in November? We cannot afford to get complacent and have a repeat of 2016.

Yes, “let’s make sure people have healthcare and we do something about climate change” is basically identical to “death to the aristos!”. Jesus Republicans love to be dramatic about rich people paying taxes.

People have treated him like a joke of an actor, but from what I can tell, the man just does the damn work and takes care of other people. What could be hotter than that? Cool breeze, indeed!

What’s funny is how much interest I have in Bill & Ted 3 compared to how much lack of interest I have in Matrix 4. Sad.

In 1991 I sat virtually alone in a local theater at a showing of My Own Private Idaho. There were maybe 10 other people in the theater.

I think it’s a good look, even on dudes that aren’t super fit - casual but still shows that some thought was put into the outfit. I actually wasn’t aware that this was a controversial stance!

Keanu Reeves is hot. Keanu Reeves has always been hot. Keanu Reeves will always be hot.

Is the blazer\t-shirt look really bad? Keanu looks like he pulls it off pretty well. I feel like if a guy is in decent shape, it works.

That’s the thing with his base, too. If they had alternative opinions based in reality, fine. You could at least have a debate. When they so militantly and defiantly espouse the wingnuttiest of conspiracies\false “facts”\flat out lies, what the hell do you do with that? No amount of discussion will change anything.

Was this taken after climbing the two steps up to the podium?

There’s not nearly enough reporting on this aspect. A lot of people who recover are still going to have long-term effects, including lifetime disability. That’s added strain on the economy and healthcare system and I haven’t heard anyone discuss how those challenges are going to be addressed. The more Trump ignores

Also, sometimes “not dying” means “needing a lung transplant”.

Exactly. A friend of mine (who is in his late 20s, no pre-existing conditions or other risk factors) had a case that was on the serious side and was briefly hospitalized, but out of work for a total of 5 weeks. Just because you don’t die doesn’t mean it isn’t completely shitty.

I think the focus on the death rate is starting to be a problem with the spike wit young people infections. While it is unquestionably true that the mortality rate with their infections isn’t really there, I’ve read a lot of admittably anecdotal evidence that the Covid-19 still absolutely wrecks their system and that

He’s directly responsible for at least the supermajority of the 120,000 plus deaths in the country and will get at least 45% of the votes in the country.

While the Oscars clearly have had no issue continuing to nominate and award unequivocal dirtbags (see: Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, etc...), one hopes this will change going forward as the old membership is inevitably replaced with the new.

I dunno, the Titanic song was written for the movie and basically summarizes the movie’s plot.

I remember thinking at the time that it was written for the film or at least chosen because of its thematic relevance and trying to figure out how the lyrics fit into the movie, which was a fool’s errand. Though they don’t really make sense in any other context either.

The letter is signed by Tom’s 2 children, their mother (Tom’s wife of many years whom he divorced later in life), AND Tom’s widow at the time of his death. Literally all of his legal family banding together to protect his integrity.  A beautiful moment created by a shitty president.  

As a Petty fan, I support your pedantry.
