  1. Wish these were available somewhere else. I've got Netflix, Disney+, Prime... I don't really want to get Paramount too.
  2. I think that makes a lot of sense. At 41 you probably have a much greater sense of what you want and need from a partner... That's certainly how I feel at 38. And as you can see by how much I've posted in this thread, I know a lot more about what I don't want than I did in my 20s too.
  3. There are some obvious allowed exceptions to the rule, of course.
  4. I thought of another one thanks to the Taylor Swift Person of the Year thread over on the CEB: Making your personality all about just one thing or person.
  5. Off topic, and at the risk of annoying you with unsolicited advice: I'd suggest you avoid using the term "flyover state" going forward; it's not a good look for you or indeed anybody, IMO, and I think your point stands just as well without it. As my grandpa used to say: "No generalization is worth a damn, including this one."
  6. Purchased! Steam tells me I've put in almost 80 hours into the regular game and previous DLC, so... I'm expecting great things from this.
  7. Also for the movie itself, I didn't think it actually looked that bad, though I suspect it will be very hamfisted with its morality.
  8. IMO you're right about it being a long ass time ago and the fact that people should get the fuck over it already, be on the right side of history, etc. BUT.... I also wonder if practically speaking, unfortunately too many people are still attached to the Lost Cause narrative for studios to want to alienate them (i.e. not get their money).
  9. Knowing nothing of the details of this particular case, at first thought I theoretically wouldn't have a problem with this, honestly. It does happen that people, including and maybe especially famous people, are sometimes falsely accused, and waiting for our judicial system to complete its process before jumping to conclusions seems reasonable to me.
  10. @Remarkableriots What's your budget and what exactly are your requirements? I found this reddit thread that had a couple specific suggestions, but 1) it's a year old so there may be better options and 2) without knowing a bit more of your requirements, I'm not sure if they're right for you. It might be a good place to start though.
  11. As has been said many times: It's not Trump's rhetoric itself that is so worrying to me, because there are always crazy assholes. What's upsetting is how many others are going along with him even now.
  12. It makes me laugh and says a lot that Utah's highest result was "Mormon".
  13. I would have been interested in buying the original Star Wars trilogy in 4K, but it looks like they're already sold out.
  14. I haven't seen anything else by this director, unfortunately.
  15. I saw this last night and really enjoyed it. It's odd, to be sure, but it's also hilarious, visually fascinating, and at times very moving too. It kind of made me think it was like a weird lovechild of Tim Burton, Wes Anderson, and Frankenstein. Incredible style and wonderful acting by all involved. And yes, confirmed.
  16. While all true, I do wonder if the cat can be put back in the bag... In my admittedly uninformed perspective, it seems like the Republican party of the past may be lost forever as the populist movement has taken root.
  17. I saw the trailer months ago and thought it looks kinda interesting and of course Emma Stone is great, as is Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, etc. but I promptly forgot all about it. Some friends wanted to go, and now I see reviews seem quite positive so far: 8.5 on IMDb, 93% on Rotten Tomatoes, 87% on Metacritic, etc.
