With how he turned out not sure this is the joke you want to make.
Skype logs are a reference to me so I have no clue what you're talking about.

The wife decided to finally watch it. We got through the whole thing and started watching again.
You and I can argue whether this is the greatest TV show of all time, that's fair. What's undeniable, though, is how obvious it is that the show was planned out from the beginning.
A couple random skeletons have nothing to do with it either. The first real episode of the show is named Tabula Rasa. Locke describes the whole plan to kill Jacob in metaphor. Literally everyone clearly demonstrates the character problems that define them for six full seasons and character arcs all revolve around the same moral structure.
There are lots of problems and it did have a bad habit of asking some questions it wasn't prepared to answer. But even with all its real flaws it was just one of the first victims of toxic fandom. Too many people saying that their fanfic not becoming reality was evidence of bad writing.
Only show that holds a candle to LOST is BSG. I cried at the finale all over again.

I just went to the gym for the first time in nearly three years and I started with leg day. I'm going to be feeling this tomorrow. The walk home was already slower than the walk there.

Sorry I have no advice; nothing worked for me until it did. Maybe that's the only advice anyone can give.

Cops put people into fight or flight mode and then act like either reaction is a reason to execute them. Maybe, just maybe, it should be on the supposedly trained professionals to de-escalate.
Cops will be like "I deescalated by slapping the cuffs on."

Not every classified document is serious. Many are serious enough that the government always knows where they're at.
These ones were forgotten about.

Hopefully whoever wrote that Joker storyline wrote it to intentionally troll those people.
Sounds like something joker would do.

My cat is home. He's obviously in pain due to the surgery, and will be for the next few days, but I can already tell he's better.
You're doing great. Tell yourself that and keep telling yourself that until you can't think anything else. I'm not kidding even a little bit.

Now I demand you praise yourself as among the greatest of cat owners in all recorded history

I can't sleep. I failed. I failed as a cat owner, as a protector, and as a human being.
Feeling like a failure can be a normal healthy thing because it's always pushing us to do better. Unless it's not then that feeling is harmful. People get sick. Accidents happen. Unless you've got some magic cat healing wand then not everything is your responsibility and the worst thing you can do is take a person who cares deeply for animals and make sure they hate themselves for it (I mean you).
Not to say it doesn't, won't, or can't hurt. But it will do all those things eventually, even if you were to "perfectly" take care of your friend.
My best friend's cat had to be put down a couple years back. In some ways she was my cat too. I gotta tell you that you still feel the same helplessness and wish you could do more even if the cat is 21 years old.
It's okay to grieve, even if everything turns out okay. Just don't blame yourself.

My cat is not doing good. He hasn't eaten much or gone to the bathroom since he got home. And when I went to check his litter box, there looks to be a puke stain near it...
I'm back at the vet clinic. I feel like such a shitty fucking owner...
You're definitely absolutely not a shitty owner. In fact you're taking care of your friend the best you can. You won't regret anything you've done to help, that's for sure. How could you be a bad friend?
I wish my words would bring more luck. I've been there twice too recently myself, find it hard to talk about, and wouldn't wish it on anybody. I hope your friend pulls through.

Every time I go on twitter.com the very first post I see is from one of either Elon Musk, Don Jr. or Jim Jordan. I shit you not. It's been like that for weeks. (and I don't follow any of them)
Probably because I always click on it and doom scroll it with a self-loathing hate boner. To quote T-Swift, "It's me, Hi! I'm the problem it's me..."
Yes it's literally because you do that. You're literally telling it you're interested. The top of my timeline is not that at all.

Hey all. My job recently had me looking through a few hours of TikTok videos which got me thinking about the last online community I actually liked interacting with, so popped back over here to see what's happening. Hope y'all are good, more or less. Seems like I still maybe know a few people on this forum? Anyway, politics are funny and hope everyone here is mostly alright.
Doing swell here hope the same for you buddy

Let's say this does happen - wouldn't Jeffries speaker position still be incredibly tenuous? By that I mean, he would have technically be elected by a minority of the total house, so if the Republicans get their act together sometime during this Congress, they could hold a vote to remove him and be successful?
Not really, they'd control committee assignments like the rules committee which would then govern who could introduce what. Without motions to vacate or discharge petitions he would be speaker until he stepped down or a new election.

Right, and looking at lindelof's post-lost work it's obvious that the show belongs much more to him than anyone else.
Anyway, show absolutely stuck the landing not sure how you could say otherwise.
And just because they had plans they needed to change doesn't mean they didn't always know where they were going. The only other alternative was that they wrote a multi year serial story that includes foreshadowing just by the seat of their pants.
No, they talked many times about knowing where they were going but had to change how they got there. They also talked about how the show went from open ended to closed halfway through and yes you can see the seams where that was supposed to happen. But the whole deal with the two island brothers, what the island is and why people are there, and the guiding moral code are all incredibly consistent from beginning to end.
