Agreed. My dad bought me kitchen confidential in my teens not long after it came out. I read his books, watched his shows, and always thought he was living the dream. I think that was part of it, such a real down to earth guy doing what we all wish we could. He had such a way with words and people.

Conservativism is just performative outrage at this point. 

Well thats something to look forward to. I just finished 1 and am early on in 2. 

I’m more upset by the Tali reveal than the ending. I romanced her through 3 games, bring peace to the quarians and geth, and get their home planet back. Finally we are in the one place she can safely remove her helmet and she does and it pans away. fair enough, maintain the mystery. I can respect that choice, in fact…

The breakdown of the traditional black family over the past decades is also tied to the same systemic racism, segregation, redlining, overpolicing, war on drugs, etc. families and generations were broken apart by the war on drugs in the which has always targeted communities of color. Conservatives have been seeking to…

ME3 is a masterpiece until the last 20 minutes. right up to the scene with Anderson at the end. Then the starchild ruins everything.

Yes. Emphatically so. 

I don’t disagree with much of what you said. I think we need to supplement the police with public safety/social services. If someone is having a mental health crisis, guys with guns being the primary responders makes no sense. We need case workers and social workers perhaps supported by the police, but a bunch of cops…

Crime is up nationwide largely due to the pandemic and recession that largely impacted the poorest Americans.

I live in the twin cities MN. neither city burned down. Thanks for your concern. Were a few store fronts vandalized and a couple stores burned, absolutely. I was there the day after helping clean up. Let me alleviate your fears and assure you that the city is still standing and we are doing just fine.

Is it too much to ask for a complete game at launch? nearly every game lately comes out glitchy and broken. hotfixes and patches have become the norm and I’m not liking it. 

Fox and the Republican messaging on BLM has been quite effective on conservative whites I know. The constant drumbeat of using BLM protests as equivalent to Jan 6th and the rhetoric of “BLM is burning cities down” and “BLM is a marxist organization” has shifted the opinions of a number I associate with through work…

His son is in prison in california for sexual assault. The apple did not fall far from the tree.

So lets see, he raped a child. She got knocked up. In order to avoid jail time for, you know, raping a child, they have a child marriage. he dumps her when she turns 18 and by 20 she’s commited suicide. He is estranged from his now also sex offender son.

I don’t usually much care for celebrities or mark their passing, but Chadwick was a gut punch. I went to see Black panther on opening night and will never forget the sight of little black boys in their black panther costumes just bouncing with excitement. Representation matters, and Chadwick was every inch the…

Yeah I made some flippant comment attending a family bbq where I was like “huh, its a little weird being the only white person here.” and she was like “welcome to every day of my life.”

I thought I was woke AF before dating a POC. No. No i was not. 

What does it matter what a random politician says? how would that create a mistrial anyways?

My Dad always liked making Creamed Chipped beef on toast when I was sick. No idea why

got my first on thursday!
