  1. The loop will be SCOTUS looking to answer ONLY the question of immunity for “official acts" of a sitting President, which is YES. The ambiguity will remain in defining an "official act". Is plotting against the US while President an "official act"? Clearly, NOT. So, who will answer the question about overstepping I think SCOTUS will uphold immunity and refer back to Congress for legislative solutions to the "official acts" ambiguity. Trump will drag this out FOREVER… or until elected

     

    I will just keep my “this is how democracy dies.. with thunderous applause” meme on standby

     

    I think Ive burned enough copies of Home Alone 2 and Franklin the turtle DVDs that youd think Trump and McConnell would have dropped dead by now

  2. Currently

    im debating getting Double Dragon Advance..

     

    I was getting it for the Switch since it wasnt available for the X.. I later realized it doesnt pop up on searches because its listed as “doubledragon”… but then its also listed as being 1 player only while other versions are 2-player

     

    Super Double Dragon is listed as well but the art style is too far from the double dragon look

  3. I paid for Double Dunk on the Atari 2600…

     

    yup, as the NES was making its American debut..my father begrudgingly got me an Atari 2600. So while my friends traded NES games I was part of that exclusive outcast order of kids who traded Atari Carts… The NES games may have been better, but the art on our carts was leagues better than theirs

  4. hard to say…Id probably stay out of it

     

    Even as I walk in malls I often wonder how I would react if one of these mass stealing sprees happened in my vicinity… I expect I wouldnt get involved unless me or a loved one was targeted personally…. not sure what their fight or flight is against resistance but I guess i’d be all in there..

     

    actually surprised folks dont get their bags and stuff stolen coming out of big stores like Costco and/or Sams

     

    In thinking about mass shootings lately, I think Im toxic and hateful enough to try and kill the shooters loved ones should they harm someone I love..its not the right answer, but its part of the rot in me.. I dont think I have enough forgiveness in my heart for that kind of hurt

  5. Is this a Spectacular Spiderman love fest?

    Count me in… great show, solid individual episodes that tied in to bigger overarching stories… the Green Goblin misdirection still worked.

     

    We were definitely robbed, made it that much easier to hate what we got in its place..

     

     

     

    So X-men… they got the original Wolverine voice actor sure, but his voice “lacks” what it had in his younger days… Morph looking like chameleon from spiderman is different…Hopefully Jubilee gets the “shut up Meg” treatment.  Even as a kid I didnt love X-men and this looks “lesser” than what was back then.. hopefully the stories pick up the slack…

    Carnage: “because we killed so many of Spider-Man’s rogue gallery over the years so we decided he basically needed his version of the Joker.”

     

    Maximum Carnage and the Clone Saga were some of the biggest disasters of the 90s.

     Seriously… How did they manage to screw up Symbiotes so badly…. dragged a very simple story to 10+ issues without telling any actual story.. just crap fights and reject characters on both sides

  7. Took longer than expected… the joining of the 2 things most worshipped in the US.. Football and firearms… only thing missing was a scripture on the side of the weapon.

     

    Sandy Hook should have been a long overdue turning point, in a way it was…it proved nowhere was off limits for the violence and it showed no tragedy would ever be too big for lobbyists to overcome..

     

    is there any place left in anyones mass shooter bingo card?

    Whatcha talkin’ about? You decided not to play it, or something?

     

    The e-Reader stages are pretty fun. It was the closest we got to a new 2D Mario that generation. 

    It means im an ignorant ass that goes off half cocked to do stuff without thinking…

     

    I saw the e-reader levels were accessible but ignored that they were on the Gba version of smb3…  I dont have the online expansion for the Switch, thus no access.. I am dumb

  9. Went in to Switch virtual console expecting to play SMB3 E-reader levels but apparently that wasnt a thing

     

    As an alternative I jumped in to the original STARFOX and promptly made it to level 4.. so its nice to see that skillset hasnt diminished

     

    Did a bit if STARFOX 2, did well there too.. but it definitely felt a bit too much like Starfox Command for my tastes.

     

     

    A more pleasant surprise was seeing my wife really get into DAVE THE DIVER.. it certainly looks fun watching her… plus with Godzilla DLC coming…

     

  10. Quantum is fine as long as its watched immediately following Casino…. It is one big story.

     

    The biggest flaw in the films is that Casino got greedy and included the scenes of Vespers betrayal, it should have ended when Bond quit…. Opening Quantum with the betrayal and death of Vesper would have better “justified” the mood/attitude Bond has through the rest of the film..  IQuantum is a solid film with nice “character” moments all over
