    House of the Dragon

    Well, it was 1000% better than Rings of Power, so there.

    I think all the CW DC shows are getting cancelled. The new owners can't afford the licensing fees from what I've heard. Glad the series was able to conclude. The final few minutes was a nice send off.

    His Dark Materials

    Yeah so the premiere had some stuff that really bugged me. First, faggot angels as mentioned above. They should be asexual. Where's my asexual representashon!? * Will is slicing into other worlds looking for Lyra, right? So how does he end up running across the bear which exists in Lyra's...

    Was just about to post the same. WTF man. This never ends.

    Wait, this says December 5.

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

    My understanding is if humans went extinct today, it would take about 10,000 years before any trace of our existence would be gone (other than stuff carved into granite). Now, we think humans came on the scene 160,000 years ago. That's an enormous amount of time where some kind of advanced...

    Folger's Extravagant Swatch Thread

    Calc not Calf. Conceptually I had no problems, but the instructor was a brutal, brutal grader. You had to show your work precisely the way she wanted else you get dinged. And I have terrible hand writing.

    Black Adam (2021)

    This is the fight I was remembering, from Justice League Unlimited. Which was freakin awesome.

    Black Adam (2021)

    Wasn't there a DC animated film with a Captain Marvel vs Supes encounter? I seem to recall "Shazam!" lightning bolts fucking up Supes pretty good.

    Black Adam (2021)

    Yeah, this was alright at best. The death of Dr. Fate landed with a thud since we were just introduced to the character. What was the point of that? Zero emotional investment. To me, the film felt rushed getting everything in place. Adam hasn't been around for 5,000 years yet everyone...

    Could interpret that as more people re-entering the workforce? EDIT: Nevermind. full time employment is way down.

    Tablets

    Has everyone eliminated a physical "home" button on tablets? I'm looking for something for my elderly mother and all the new swiping nonsense is really difficult for her (and me, quite honestly).

    I dunno, Apple is like a luxury brand. Why would the market as a whole get excited that Mercedes-Benz is doing 'okay'?

    What about AAPL? They appear to be tanking.

    This is the weekly chart of SPY: To me, this looks like nothing more than a pull back before another drop. Nothing here suggests a change in trend.

    Guild Wars 2

    Should have bumped this earlier, but the Halloween event has been live for the past week. Great time to easily level up a character to max and make a fair amount of gold.

    Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)

    Am I the only one that thinks Elf really isn't all that funny? I'm dumbfounded why so many people love that movie.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    What exactly did the rings "do" to the wearers?

    The Peripheral

    Chloe didn't turn out as good looking as I thought she would.

    Brand New Cherry Flavor

    You might as well finish it up, but it does end in a way that suggests a 2nd season but I believe it was cancelled. I enjoyed the series up until the finale.

    Andor

    Enjoyable episode, but they just HAD to slip in some gay shit. Not surprised of course.

    I think they just say that shit in an attempt to calm the markets. I can somewhat understand that they don't want to run around screaming, "we're all fucked!". But it does make them look completely incompetent a few months down the road when the exact opposite happens.

    Can anyone explain why the Utilities sector is getting destroyed?

    No one thought to yell, "Look out behind you!" ?

    The Walking Dead

    So has this been complete shit? I haven't watched the past, oh, 3 to 4 seasons.

    Werewolf by Night (2022)

    Even though it only had 10 minutes or less of screentime, I really didn't like the werewolf design. Looked more like ape-man to me.

    Black Adam (2021)

    If any other hero should appear in Black Adam it should be Captain Marvel, not Supes.

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

    Initially I was annoyed but quickly became enamored. It's pretty funny, actually.

    Yeah, a dude I listen to on YouTube thinks we're going to retrace the entire bubble. Which would, yeah, put us at 3200-2800.

    Sold one of my AAPL puts which effectively paid for both and then some. Letting the other ride. I'm still struggling trying to find a good exit strategy for options. Every time I create a trailing stop, I get stopped out. Options seem to be way too volatile to do that with. A YouTuber...

    Honestly, most of his videos end with a rational explanation.

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

    He does. The way he structures his videos is he covers all the urban legend details then in the latter half he presents the debunking info. There are still many details that are puzzling about this one, though. Also, you're missing out. He is NOT some crackpot conspiracy theorist.

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

    This one is fascinating. I've never even heard of the Black Knight satellite.
