  1. My sister is a nurse in the greater Seattle area. She has contracted it twice. I was tested but have not contracted as of yet.
  2. You don't even need makeup to do Karl Malone. Just wear a cowboy hat and drive a big rig and talk about car dealerships. He's like the redneck-est black man ever.
  3. We've all gained a little weight man. Eye on the ball, though.
  4. Nah. Ruth and Wyatt are a million times more intelligent than anybody in the Trump family.
  5. I honestly didn't know that the same actor played Ash and Bilbo and now I appreciate both of those characters so much more than I already did. RIP
  6. The new Protest the Hero album came out a day early. Hadn't heard this song yet. Love it.
  7. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) - 8/10 The extensive review I wrote on Letterboxd can be found there if you care to read it.
  8. I didn't know where to put this but it's tangentially related to all that's going on right now. Cop Karen has a complete mental breakdown because of her McD's order taking a bit longer than usual.
  9. Mormon Karens are the Karenest Karens that ever Karened. Actually, that's not true. Mormons are very non confrontational. They excel at passive aggression. Or they suffer in silence and put on a happy face. And yes, they are very kind. I think that is an apt stereotype and their best overall descriptor.
  10. People who don't return their carts to the corral are human filth; primordial slime that has not evolved to the state that allows it the cognitive awareness of others in the same habitat. They are only a tenth of a unit up on the scale above MAGA chuds. There is never a good excuse not to return to a corral. One time I was getting into my car after the lady next to me had just finished loading all of her purchases into her trunk. She then pushed the cart behind my car and left it there and started walking to her driver door. I don't think she noticed me get into my car. So I got out and pushed the cart behind her car just as she was starting her engine and putting it into reverse. She saw me and opened her door and leaned out. The following conversation ensued. Not the exact words as this was like 5 years ago and I don't remember every detail. But it was more or less Karen: Excuse me! Why are you leaving your cart behind my car? Me: This isn't my cart. It's yours. Karen: Huh? Me: You left your cart behind my car. I watched you leave it there in my rearview mirror just as I sat down. I'm returning the favor. She then just stared at me in this weird awe that was disgusted mixed with unbelief. Like how dare I throw her bullshit back in her face? I got back in my car and started it and waved goodbye as I backed out. I watched her in my rearview mirror as I left, and you're not going to believe this (lol just kidding of course you are; it's Karen). Not only did she not return it to the corral, not only did she not push it back to where she had previously left it where I had parked, she pushed it behind the car parked on her other side! Because that is the direction I left it pointing in. And here's the final kicker: the corral was just on the other side of that car! Un. Fucking. Believable. My wife lived near a region of her home country that has signs posted by the government as you enter it saying "If you need help that's too bad. It's not coming." Can't remember the exact wording but that was the sentiment. People there litter like you wouldn't believe it. And there's not like a sanitation department in the city that goes around and cleans that kind of stuff up. They don't have supermarkets with big parking lots and carts. But when she moved here and we went to the grocery store for the first time and we loaded up the car, the moment the last bag was lifted out of the cart she immediately took the cart and headed towards the nearest corral. It's not a fucking habit that you have to develop. It's basic human decency. Decency towards other customers. Decency towards their property. Decency towards store employees working the shittiest job for minimum wage.
  11. Owners should pay full salaries. In absolutely no player contract does it say "contingent upon X butts in Y seats per game on average or we pay you less." Do you want an even shittier, dull season of something most people already consider dull these days? If the mid tier and below players are being paid a pro rated salary (that the MLB is already saying they want to cut even more) then those players have no incentive to perform in a short season. They will not give even the slightest shit about player promotion. That doesn't even get into the absurdly shit scenario minimum salary and minor league players deal with.
  12. I got my results back this morning. Negative. I tested 7 days ago. The lab where they're processing all the tests is backed up because lots of people are wanting to get tested due to the spike.
