    Kinds of Kindness (2024)

    That looks kinda interesting. Pretty sure Emma Stone is a full blown addict of some kind these days. Jesse Plemons plays these kinds of roles so well I do kinda wanna see it

    Well, ya see, sometimes actors need to fit the role the writers created. This looks fun.

    Best Covers

    This might be my favorite cover of all time, because if you didn't know this was a Black Sabbath song you'd probably think this was the original. It's like a time machine

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I really like Blitzen Trapper. I think there are still a lot of bands that have actual talent for songwriting, they just kind of get lost in the noise. But these guys write a lot of really great songs. And they're mostly, really simple.

    If you sous vide a chuck roast for long enough (36+ hours) it does actually taste like prime rib. It just takes a really long time.

    You didn't really oversell it. I think Baki is done isn't it?

    So, this show sucks and does not at all "scratch that itch". However, apparently both Baki and Kengan were popular enough that Netflix is releasing a crossover series "Baki Hanma vs Kengan Ashura" that airs on June 6th. Also kinda weird since Kengan Ashura is not done yet

    The fat, and connective tissue need time to render and break down. Grilling a chuck roast to medium rare and then slicing it like prime rib is... well it's really unappetizing

    Rotisserie chuck roast to medium rare sounds... not very good. I gotta say.

    Path of Exile

    The amount of loot is nonsensical to the point you get desensitized to loot in general. When so much drops that it crashes the client, and even the server. Or causes massive performance degradation, it might be time to adjust your philosophy on loot as a developer

    The Expanse

    It becomes harder to watch mostly because several of the characters become insufferable cunts. But Amos stays awesome at least.

    He waited until he was in his late 30s, presumably, to buy his first house, and apparently used to make even more money. That story doesn't seem real based on just those 2 pieces of information. Sounds a lot like a bait story to stir the pot on the internet.

    PD2 is miles better. PoD had a half baked new season release recently... 3 years after the last one. PD2 is in active development with a much bigger playerbase.

    Well they can, but they're probably never gonna get much further than that. Reality for boomers was you could do exactly that sort of thing, out of high school, in a huge swath of manufacturing jobs, and then work your way up over the course of 40 years, while contributing to a pension. You...

    Millenials grew up, professionally, during a very strange time in this country. I am technically a Millenial, at 41, and I assume a large portion of this forum are also Millenials. We had literally the dumbest crop of parents ever produced because the job loyalty, pensioner American Dream...

    The younger generations know more about debt than any generation preceding them. Especially more than their parents, who sent them off to get any degree being offered at outrageous University prices. They get taught about debt bud, just not in a productive, parental way.

    Nope, that experience got replaced by parents from our generation (kids of boomers) realizing shit really ain't all American Dream, and raising jaded children. It's hilarious that people on this forum, acting the way they act and saying the things they say in the depths of the internet, are...

    I hope you can appreciate the reality, and irony, of this post combined with the previous discussion.

    Sounds like some county jurisdictions aren't as unscrupulous as mine. Mine changed the rules from assessment every 10 years to every 5 years with curious timing... in 2022.

    Maybe they haven't "done deals" but I bet they've watched HGTV. That should be a joke but it isn't. It's not surprising a generation of people who grew up being sold the concept of starter homes and the "value add" of granite countertops and then lived through 2008 doesn't have an "American...
