100% agree. Today’s POS systems prompt for the customer’s position at the table and what they ordered. Right at the system level this is all tracked.

Besides being trashy as fuck and shocking an international audience, sure, nothing happened. Normalize people beating each other up in public over any perceived slight, because we’re malfunctioning goo robots or whatever. 

His 80s run of films is really good. A Time of Destiny seems like the only misfire out of the 9 movies he was the star in, though Big Chill is an ensemble.

Since nobody’s mentioned it (because it was a weirdly overlooked series - despite my having some problems with it, it should have been better known), he was also in Condor.

He was a guy with an ego small enough that he’d sign up for a part in anything going, particularly as he got older, but with enough pride to want to deliver a great performance no matter how small the role or how inconsequential the film or TV show. I’m too young to really know him from his heartthrob leading man days…

And the screenplay (and the original novel it was based on) was written by Paddy Chayefsky, better known for realistic portrayals of working class New Yorker life like “Marty” -- so quite a departure.

Altered State is a really great movie. I remember seeing out in my teens because I use to collect old genre movies magazines like Starlog and Fangoria and I remember reading a whole article about the creature effects for the movie and was fascinated. I watched it again during quarantine and it holds up as a cool…

And my favorite, Inspector Bumstead in Dark City, initially trying to catch Rufus Seward’s character (whom he thinks is a murderer) but who eventually comes to realize that something is very odd and wrong about the city he lives in.

WaPo has been tracking the number of people killed by cops for years now, and the average is about 1000 per year (roughly 3 per day). For 2018 and 2019, the FBI stats show a total of 104 police officers killed feloniously, an average of 1 per week. Granted that many of the cases of cops shooting people are ruled…

I hate this POV because I believe it should lead a person to the OPPOSITE conclusion. If the stakes are so high for the officer, the stakes are high for everyone involved, no? If the stakes are so high (which they are - a dude died), then why should the punishment be so minor? This logically makes no sense. Where is…

It’s hard to keep up with all of Kanye’s dipshittery. Granted, that’s one of the worst examples, but it’s still one of a number that includes him writing a song about how he can beat his ex-wife’s new girlfriend in a fight.

I hear Pete Davidson is willing to step in if Kanye can’t perform.

So Kanye is now just calling out people for being decent to their fans now? I mean, commitments to safety were given long before Travis Scott. Kanye needs to get his own act together before trying to call anyone out.

Anyone who cares would rather forget about this assclown.

Consider this your periodic reminder that Kanye tried to help Donald Trump get reelected, to the point of allowing some shady shenanigans done in his name. I don’t know why nobody seems to remember or care

I think she is aware. Or she is at least aware that this is something that she is going for her own means. Maybe she thinks he “likes” her. Who knows. Stranger things have happened. I feel like it’s all very deliberate but it’s just also so...dumb. 

Yeah, I wonder if that’s part of the appeal of Pete. He lives on the complete opposite coast of her family, so that may give her a little more freedom from the strictures of being a Kardashian.

Kim is taking a tip from Adele on the whole “choosing myself” thing. If you look at the entire article, I think it’s pretty clear that she referring to the fact that she was basically Kanye’s muse/dress-up doll for the 8 years (or so). She actively chose this for herself, of course, so I’m not saying I feel bad for…

He’s transphobic and full on NIMBY?

Why did they have their first date documented with an article and photo shoot?
