Boy. Where to start? I left Mormonism for a lot of reasons, but their financial practices were in the three main reasons that made me go "Fuck this shit." I'll start small and work my way up to the story in the OP. Pardon the rambling but I'm just typing and linking. This probably won't flow that well. The church teaches as a commandment that you must pay 10% of your income to the church to build the kingdom of God on Earth. It also commands that you fast once a month and donate the money you would have used for food to the church as a fast offering. I did this from the

Eglee's reps did set the record straight and want everyone to know he was not born in Connecticut, though. So check mate. No comment on any of the stuff that actually matters.

England has it right: drastically lower the allowable amount of nicotine in tobacco vapes and the usage rates will plummet.

It's not much, but it's something. Still, I have a hard time imagining that real problem on this issue is that we don't have enough science. I'm always in favor of more science, but if decades worth of scientific consensus isn't enough to convince the GOP on climate change or vaccines, I don't suspect a pair of studies will move the needle on gun control.

I just googled this dude out of curiosity and these images came up. It couldn't be any more absurd for the conversation at hand, holy shit: I think if I were black and this tool shed told me I was sending the wrong message to black America, I would've run his ass over in the parking lot.

Correction: "The Quietest Place Chapter Three: Dead Silent" with the tagline " The Silence is Deathening". You're welcome

He could be like a dog and his aging changes rates as he ages. Maybe from 0-50 or 75 he goes through toddler stage then rapidly ages in the next 25 years to maturity then it levels off for the next 800 years.

Your crow eating is enthusiastic enough that I think you deserve points

I noticed it immediately and was amazed so few others did. At the time, I figured it was because of how bad Nintendo's servers were.

O shit. I've been playing since the 1st one came out and I didn't even realize that. I didn't even play the online in GT Sport, Just did all the single player challenges and most of the shitty tacked-on campaign they added.

Man, the reaction to this film is getting out of hand now!

Ok. So I’m now 30+ hours into this game. Playing on PC. I bought the game at launch 11.11.11 on Xbox 360. Aside from a couple quests, never played the main story. Also pulled a “GTA” and got lost doing my own thing. Now that I’ve decided to buckle down and go for the achievements (yep. I’m lame) I wanted to play the quest. So far it’s actually rather interesting and pretty good. I’ve met some really cool people and I’m obviously joining guilds along the way and such. Hell I’ve never bought a house until now. Wasn’t aware you even could. This game is more

I can appreciate that.

This might not bother you guys, but the PS4 version at the very least has glitched/missing ambient soundtrack in quite a few areas and I've seen in confirmed in quite a few playthrough videos. The sound design of Dark Souls was extremely important to me, I always played it with headphones, and honestly, I'm not interested between that, which could've been patched had they even remotely given a shit about this, and the lighting changes and so on. Dark Souls is quite possibly my favorite game...ever...and for me personally, it's unacceptable that they fucked with the aesthetics in e

How about Got Pic? I remember the first time i learned that BBW didn't stand for Beautiful Blonde Woman.

Should have been called "A Quieter Place"

For the first time in decades The NRA has successfully prevented this type of research for YEARS.

There are 7 new cars.

It happens, my man.

Yeah, I may have had a bit too much to drink lol

I've never even heard of it.

I'm a few weeks behind as I just on demand AEW whenever I can but I'm still trying to figure out who the face of the company is. Like literally, who is the top "face". Looks like they are trying to make it Moxley. So far AEW has the worst parts of WCW and TNA where it's all heels, all the time. Not that we want some John Cena running around burying everyone, but there is a balance that they are not even close to achieving.

Probably button mashers who don't know what they are doing, paying attention to the miracle of what's happening on screen.

Your opinion is correct

It’s always best to cheat off the smartest kid in the class 🍻

I do, well I really mean the whole series because I'm cheating!

That can't be ADA compliant.

Not to beat a dead horse, but watch the first trailer for The Force Awakens, and pay attention to the first lines from Rey, Finn, and Kylo... ...Then think about where they were by the end of TLJ. Rian Johnson handled each character fantastically, and only continued the natural arc that JJ created in TFA.

In case folks weren't clear, The Mandalorian takes place five years after Jedi, but 25 or so years BEFORE The Force Awakens.

Hmmm. I have $10 in rewards certificates so it will be 9.99 If I grab it. Thanks for the heads up. I may just get it to have something to play while I'm at my parent's house. i didn't bring any games with me.

https://www.thefarside.com/ Gary Larson finally launched a site to host The Far Side. I owned so many of those books as a kid.

Wait so...

Haha. I don't even know what I was trying to post. On-topic, George Lucas did not attend the premier.

Yeah they said they still had to emulate it but since they knew they were going to do it ahead of time, they took it into account when designing the system. So it didn't take as much trickery as with the 360/OG emulation on XBO.

But I'll say this. I'll rewatch for the characters. In the original trilogy, I was interested in the story. The setting. The lore. I wanted to see the defeat of the Empire and I wanted to see the Good Guys win. The redemption of Vader was really just the icing on the cake. I was never really invested in Luke's journey to become a Jedi. That seemed so small potatoes compared to the whole galaxy's struggle. But in the Sequels, I CARE about the Jedi and how the Force reveals itself in the characters. TFA and TLJ did that. Begrudgingly, I'll admit that JJ Abrams hel

Sorry @GeneticBlueprint, the Times article I read earlier said otherwise. Thanks for the correction! It should be noted that 501c3’s are not required to to charitable work.There are many types of activities that are allowable under that federal designation.

There shouldn't be anything that is nontaxable. Charity is just a tax dodge used to justify low spending on social services.

He brags about his electoral college victory then talks about the verdict of the ballot box and the will of the American people when he didn't win the verdict of the ballot box and the will of the American people have never actually been on his side. I like it when my President writes delusional unhinged bullshit.

To be fair, it’s been a few months since he got to brag about his Electoral College victory. He was due.

I guess the critics have their "knives out" for this film.

As some (most?) of you know I used to be Mormon. I have a lot to say about this and mormonism's money practices but I'm going to be busy most of the day. It will be a long fucking rant so hopefully you all don't mind.

Played another 5-6 hours of Red Dead Redemption 2. I am enjoying the characters, they story, and the world. Rockstar did what they do best, they created a world that I want to spend time in. However... 1) The shooting mechanics are abysmal. It feels like I am playing a 7 year old open world game. 2) It tries for realism in so many areas. However, If I bump into someone in the open world I might get a bounty. Kill 30 guys in a mission -- and nada. 3) Preventing me from running an galloping sucks -- AND THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME 4) Having the camp as a place y
