    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    I can't think of many big budget movies lately that earned it. Who this really suck for is all the artisans that were being employed in those cgi monstrosities. California was already too expensive to live in and it just got more expensive.

    Principalities and Powers

    Yep, this was an acid trip. Sometimes what you bring back with you from that place doesn't translate directly. It's too pure, it has to be worked. If you rewrote this to be a little less manifesto-y it's not all that crazy, it's just puritanical. That said, I liked the last one too! It's...

    There are some old confucian texts about religion that are monks just fucking with each other in true shitpost style.

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Yeah, I think it's probably a few things rolled into one story. Legends tend to be. They distill down separate events into a singular one. I don't think plato was just writing fiction and seeing if he could get people to believe it. I also think there's something, or somethings, to the...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Yeah, it is. But like Chuck quoted, we get Atlantis from Plato who himself got it from older sources and he has it as a continent. The city that's referred to is the capital / trade port. Legends grow in the telling. But there was supposed to be at least an island with a city on it somewhere...

    Norm brutalizing eget with no remorse was always good. And you can tell norm had none at all. Kidding not kidding. Norm is such a dick. I seem to remember him shitting all over Adam just to impress Jane fonda. Lol.

    The problem with that idea Chuck is it they were significantly advanced those 15 to 25 thousand years ago, how did we out compete them? Large scale building works require social infrastructure in the form of excess food. Cave paintings, maybe. Whoever built the megalithic sites though...

    The fomor from Irish folk were misshapen giants that had to be driven off the island. Sure, it could have just been some Africans with boats. or inbred scots. Or it could been bigfoots.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I've subbed to spotify off and on for music. Their free app is complete garbage, their premium service is ok and not expensive. They've got a remarkable library. I don't like the changes they've made to library searches over the years. I feel like their product has been getting worse for me...

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    It makes sense for him to do something like that. And while I won't be on spotify, it you think about it it does diminish the reach of YouTube ever so slightly. Which I think Joe may not be adverse to. When he plays devil's advocate for them it feels to me like it's not sincere.

    Do you know first hand anyone who has been proven to test positive for Covid-19?

    Th eres two ideas. One is that it is a virulent plaque which will infect and kill anyone and everyone. The other is that it's harmless. Neither is correct. It can be fatal. Don't think it's harmless, just a fraud perpetrated by social forces. At an individual level you don't want it and...

    I'm sure there was a Bigfoot even as recently as the past few hundred years. But with how many people have both seriously and not seriously looked you've gotta say not anymore. A North a American ape? Sure, why not. Injuns got here some way of another. Why not a gorilla too? Or a neaderthal.

    The qquestion is who has the better logistics. And I'm confident in assuming Wal-Mart does. Amazon has grown well. But Wal-Mart has twenty years. Amazon might be next. Next isn't yet. They might not be, also. There are problems with catalogue shopping. And that's what Amazon offers...

    Dune (2020)

    To be fair at it's core dune is a story about jihad against an imperial power. It's a great fucking story, the first two books are masterful. But the metaphors for Islam and Christianity are both intentional and obvious. But this is not a story that's going to go over well in the west anymore...

    New World

    That's really too bad. I didn't have any hopium for this game, but it would be nice to have a competent mmo, even survival crafting, that didn't flop. I'm always leery of PvP in a game that isn't specifically built for it. It's a content crutch. Always.

    We had a guy in our guild that would serverhop on alts and talk to officers in other uberguilds trying to piece together better raid strats. He was moderately successful. We weren't bleeding edge of anything, just at the front of our backwoods server. Most of the core of the build had a...

    My cat caught herself a little bird yesterday. I tried to take it from her and she growled at me like a dog. Much respect. The last one she caught she brought to me alive. She ate the guts outta this one. I plan on laughing at her when she poops feathers.

    One weird thing to me is that there is still a paper products shortage. Why? Manufacturers said it's not production. I can see it would take two weeks to flatten the curve of warehouse shock. But a month? Not kidding. That's beffudling. Are Karen's still mass buying it to shove in their...

    it might be bro science but he's not wrong. Regular exercise is about the biggest thing you can do for health. I guess eating is more important. It's not the equipment that gets gross usually. that stuff isn't hard to clean. It's the mats. Those get filthy fast.
