  1. I know the Desantis team didn't directly make that ad, but the very fact that they saw it and said, "YES, we need to share this on our official account" is bad enough. Ron DeSantis is a piece of shit and anyone who likes him at all can fucking just go die in a hole.
  2. We still use the Xbox One... because there isn't that compelling of a reason to upgrade to the "Series" generation... That said, I think we're about to finally upgrade...
  3. The web developer woman who didn't want to make LGBT wedding sites doesn't even make wedding web sites and was never asked to create a gay wedding site. She just went to court because she really didn't want to just I case it ever came up. This is a complicated topic... because I wouldn't want to make a website for something I didn't believe in either... but if you just change her complaint to her refusing to make a site for an interracial couple and it starts to become more clear why laws actually do need to be involved.
  4. It's bad enough that the woman who hands me a cookie puts a giant screen begging for a tip in my face... I also hate how buying something using square at one of these stores magically gives them your email address... I'm sure I technically agreed to get emails from people somewhere in this process, but at the same time, did I really? Did I? UNSUBSCRIBE UNSUBSCRIBE UNSUBSCRIBE I also always tip because I strongly relate to and sympathize with customer facing retail employees, but yeah, tipping is dumb, stores should just pay a livable wage and I'm on team South Park guys here...
  5. I like how there are literally thousands of unsubstantiated / non-confirmable stories like this about Trump, and they just flow through the media like water, coming and going and forgotten about in days or even hours... because no one can keep up with the sheer volume of them... and then when there is one story like this about Biden, based on almost nothing, or by anonymous 3rd-hand rumors... it can dominate conservative media for months and months and months... It's like, there are 500 Trump micro scandals to every one about Biden, but somehow they seem to rise to the same volume for some reason. Unless there is tape or proof I just ignore these, because they are meaningless. Anyone who is demented, stupid, brainwashed and/or vile enough to still support Trump sure as shit isn't jumping off the wagon because of a story like this and everyone else already thinks he's a fucking piece of shit (because he clearly is) so stories like this are utterly meaningless.
  6. I'm a big fan of this show, I didn't really vibe with the last several seasons / years or whatever... and I really don't know if we need this or not... but that trailer actually looked good and I guess I'll check it out... why not...
  7. Fuck both these people... but there isn't a person on the planet who needs a good ass kicking more than Elon Musk, so I'm all for this.
  8. We currently have roughly 15 bottles of wine in our basement that people have "gifted" us over the years. My wife never drinks it, and while I like wine okay, it's not really something I seek out unless someone offers it to me... so it just piles up. I'm on team George here...
  9. I think they did know... I read a report that they have evidence that not only did they jettison the emergency weights on the bottom, but that they went a step further and jettisoned the entire back part of the sub to make their ascent even more rapid. These are things they would have had to have been triggered by the pilot, so they knew something was very wrong. How long did they know that? I don't know... seconds? minutes? who knows... EDIT: The "inside" info was that they jettisoned the "standard" emergency weights to start a rapid ascent, they did not ditch the entire rear, I heard that somewhere, but I can't find info on that anywhere...
  10. I mean, I don't know if scam is the right term... he did have many previous successful trips down there... If the owner himself wasn't onboard, I could see it being a scam, but as it is, I think it's just a bunch of people thinking the rules don't apply to them... and for billionaires and crazy submarine inventor dudes, that's usually true... but the laws of physics don't care how rich or entrepreneurial/ambitious you are.
  11. If you've made it to season 3 and aren't liking it, you never will. There are only 4 seasons...
  12. Well, first of all, the trailers for Elemental made it look completely boring and generic. I had zero desire to watch it after seeing the trailer. I'm sure others may have had different reactions, but it didn't do anything for me... plus, taking your kids to the movies is freaking expensive. It's like $50 bucks just to get seats for an adult and two kids. It's not like a huge expense or anything, but at some point you have to really do some math. You go out for lunch and a movie and get a slushy or whatever and you've spent $100 bucks easy. It all adds up, and if the movie looks bad, who is going to be running out the door with a handful of cash to watch some boring mediocre movie you'll completely forget about in a week???
  13. I like how his big crimes are not paying taxes and owning a gun... two central pillars of the Republican Party...
  14. I was talking about Elemental, which apparently has some minor side character who is supposed to be non-binary, but it never actually comes up in the flick. Disney's 'Elemental,' which features 'non-binary' character, flops in opening weekend WWW.FOXNEWS.COM Walt Disney's Pixar Animation Studios released another flop at the box office with its film "Elemental," which made only $29.5 million in its opening weekend.
  15. This thing has like 2 days of air left... the most likely scenario is they are either stuck in the wreckage somehow or somewhere near it. Imagine what goes through your head when you are trapped in a small metal tube with 5 other people, waiting 3 days to run out of air while completely helpless... 2 miles underwater... slowly waiting to join the 1,500 souls you thought it would be jolly good time to spend $250,000 to have a little gander at... I mean, woof...
  16. Fox News is running around high giving each other because this featured a non-binary character and is failing at the box office. I have not seen it, but apparently it's a very minor side character and is their gender is never even brought up. GO WOKE GO BROKE!
  17. Trump repeatedly celebrated the inclusion of transgender women in his beauty pageant | CNN Politics WWW.CNN.COM Years before he said he was running for president to “defeat the cult of gender ideology,” Donald Trump welcomed and praised the inclusion of transgender women in the Miss Universe pageant. FROM 2012... Miss Universe pageant ends ban on transgender contestants | CNN WWW.CNN.COM The Miss Universe organization announced Tuesday it is ending its rule banning transgender women from competing.
