    The Chosen

    Some episodes definitely feel "off" compared to the tone of the rest of the show. Season 2 gets better. Season 3 then does the same thing again where the first couple episodes are kinda meh. But then it gets good again. Might be due to different directors? Idk. Haven't paid attention to the...

    The Mandalorian

    Fuck that. I have to watch Mandalorian on my own. Watching it with other people, they get really annoyed because I have a tendency to rewind and rewatch the good parts... Paying attention to Mando's body language and etc. The actors that play Mando do such a good job with the little tiny...

    Maybe, but I can always use more recommendations tho. Still on disability (seems a lot of my post-chemo side effects are going to be permanent, still struggling a LOT with fatigue three years later) so I've got a lot of free time on my hands. I binged all 5 seasons of The Wire in about 6-7...

    My ex watched it and I caught some episodes here and there through the series. I enjoyed the episodes I caught. Probably worth a rewatch of the whole series, thanks for the reminder.

    Necro bump. I need a new show to watch. I finally watched True Detective season 1 the other day (I know, I know...) and it's got me kinda hooked on cop shows. Watched The Wire and We Own this City after. Thing is -- I don't really like typical procedural cop dramas, Law & Order and etc is...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Actually the toilet bowl is a great analogue model for what I was saying lol. I'm sure if you zoomed in on the crud that accumulates each time you flush, you would see swirl patterns that favor the direction the water spins in as you flush.

    Antagonists cause UPregulation, no? Talking about something as fundamental to cellular signalling as the NMDA pathway tho, upregulation I assume can cause tolerance too. Too many receptors means it's that much harder for the dissociative to block enough receptors to sufficiently produce...

    The Official Guitar Thread

    And hey re: the tube preamp pedal thing. I recently sold some gear so I could afford a Vox Clean Drive, which has a "NuTube," a miniaturized vacuum tube, built into it. I wasn't sure if I would really be able to tell the difference but it honestly kinda blew me away. The cool thing with the...

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Basic music theory isn't any more complex than junior high math. Keep going! Most Western music is based on one single pattern of notes. Whether you consider that pattern to be "major," or "minor," or Mixolydian mode or etc etc purely just depends on which step of the pattern you start...

    We slowed things down quite a bit already even before that. Just gonna give her space to figure her shit out. Him leaving her first probably hurts my chances in the short run, but makes the odds of the long run happening a little better. She didn't say much about it but I could tell it caught...

    New antidepressant is literally just a mix of non-narcotic cough medicine (DXM, the stuff in Robitussin that makes you Robotrip) and Wellbutrin. https://www.auvelity.com/ And I bet it's actually great. DXM is an NMDA antagonist dissociative just like Ketamine, which of course has shown...

    It honestly sounds like he left the fucking thing in gear as he got out of the driver's seat. What a fucking moron lmao. Sounds like he was stuck in a snow drift and he didn't think to put it in park / neutral when he got out to shovel himself out. Classic dumbass mistake in winter states.

    That's a good suggestion thanks man. She's already been willing when I've asked her to express some other similar things that I wanted to hear come from her mouth so I bet she'll play ball on that one.

    I can't go into too many details because if I give many more, someone with good Google-fu will be able to ID her. Suffice to say her father was a very successful politican in South America.

    Legitimately just seems like she dated with him because it seemed like "the thing to do"... Shortly after she moved to America they were set up on a blind date. He's a total mayo and white bread type judging by her photos on Facebook. Says they never even snuggle. He doesn't invite her out...

    Literally in Matthew 5, Jesus says divorce is okay in the event of immorality. Kind of an ambiguous statement but yeah I'm actually sterile since going through chemo, and she's aware of that.

    If you weren't such an insufferable jerk with the way you speak I'd probably be more willing to listen, but you are intentionally standoffish even here in the grown up forum, so it's like ... Yeah dude. Take the chip off your shoulder and maybe then we can talk mmmk?

    If I don't care what you have to say about it, and if that fact means that one of the two of us should shut the fuck up, shouldn't it be you that shuts up? Since you're the one expressing an opinion to someone that doesn't give a fuck about it?
