And then he went in front of the cameras and fished about how much he loved the amazing beautiful children.

Obvious trolling by the Chinese, and he went right along with it. What a putz.

Can’t take no chances. Better safe than sorry.

Waterworld was a flop that got a reappraisal, and is now considered a pretty cool movie. It was really a victim of a critical wall that was against it from the start. That happens with some movies.

Babylon is another. That’s going to get a reappraisal at some point, and become a cult classic.

Showgirls is going through a reappraisal, and people are starting to see it differently. It was a Paul Verhoeven movie, of course it was great.

They remade Dune, and somehow managed to make it worse.

A buddy and me were the first in our circle to get an apartment after college, so we became the meeting place. It wasn’t a party house, we drank beer, and smoked weed, but it was calm and quiet, and the old folks below us never complained. They were frequent visitors, as a matter of fact.

People would start showing up around 8. My buddy and I managed different record stores, and we were into all sorts of music, and we had ALL the latest promo recordings, so usually we had a ball game on the TV with no sound (for our buddy Mark, who loved sports), while we listened to music, smoked, and talked. There were usually a dozen people, guys and girls, all ages, right up to old folks downstairs, sometimes. He’d had a stroke, and he could understand everything, but couldn’t converse, beyond random curse words, which he would deliver with either exasperation or disbelief, which we all thought was hilarious, and so did he and his wife.

At 11:30, we’d watch Johnny Carson’s monologue on the TV, and at midnight wed switch it over to two episodes of Twilight Zone. After that, everybody went home.

That was our ritual about 3-4 nights a week for a couple of years, until everybody started to scatter as they found jobs in different places. We’d go out now and then, but only because we weren’t going to meet any new girls hanging around our apartment. Going out often meant moving the party to someone else’s place for the night.

We couldn’t afford to go out to party much, but we always had a better time at home with our friends, especially since there were no threats of judgemental parents, RAs, etc. Our first real taste of true adult freedom was sweet enough to keep us happy.

Imagine if we were a country that made a genuine effort to be friends with the nations around us?

WHAT? ISRAEL HAS BEEN RAPING PALESTINIAN PRISONERS?

Now he’s going to want to invade Australia.

I’m a 3.

This treasonous MAGA pedophile is more proof that only the good die young.

Nonsense, there are Brits everywhere around here. Florida is the only part of America they actually like. Nobody is deporting perfectly good white immigrants. They could probably make a case that they need asylum from their health care system. MAGA would buy that.

If you have to hide significant evidence from the jury, that’s a pretty good indication you’re doing something wrong.

Level up your oral skills.

You have to drop trou in open court.

So he doesn’t believe in transgender, but he believes in transLIFE?

What a fucking clueless bitch. She goes on to compare AI with the rise of the Internet, without the most basic understanding that the Internet was supposed to transform our lives for good, while the primary objective of AI is to replace as many human jobs as possible, simply to increase profits, at the expense of nearly EVERYTHING else.

Didn’t show up to court? Oh well, I guess that’s life in prison then.

Nothing he likes better than big words and statistics.

If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, it’s a golden idol.

Valid. I actually love piggies.
