  1. I don't think you could have done a better job of fitting the books into 3-3.5 hour movies, and sacrifices had to be made. And I'm cool with additions like the aforementioned scene with Aragorn.
  2. HE CREATED 5G CAMERAS ON PHONES GIVE HIM A BREAK
  3. Yep. But thankfully, social media makes it easy for these people to go to war on each other. We need more Nick Fuentes coming out bitching about Jewish people and how horrible women are and we need Candace and Tucker to go scorched earth on the GOP alongside Fuentes.
  4. Would like to see this in a lot more Russian cities
  5. Speaking of Clancy, I was so pissed off that the Jack Ryan (which really, we know it was his son) series on Amazon couldn't use John Clark because of licensing reasons. I thought Matice was a great stand-in That was a cluster-fuck with all of the licensing bullshit. Way to go Clancy/Clancy family. I really had a lot of hopes 20+ years ago when there was talk of doing Without Remorse with Keanu Reeves as a young John Clark.
  6. My wife was asking why they were shutting down Moscow-area airports And the reality is they are probably trying to shoot down anything and everything and at this point, they have no good way of identifying friendly airliners from Ukrainian drones. I mean, in theory they should be able to figure it out with radars and transponders since airliners would have a far bigger signature, but it's Russia, and dudes working the SAM batteries are probably not being too picky. They are probably firing at the first contact they have pop up on their radars.
  7. Well fuck, I should start a Libertarian Socialism party. I did another run-through putting in some of the most Christian responses I could think of, and yeah, socialism, lol. That Jesus was a dirty hippie.
  8. Followed by a GoFundMe.
  9. So they are just downsizing Rice Stadium - friend was talking about it tonight. Thank the Gods, that was where Kennedy gave his moon speech and where I had an interesting time with a 30-something mother-of-three during a Pink Floyd concert 30 years ago.
  10. If Miami can boot out the Republicans after 28 years, and with a woman no less, I have some hope that things next year will be a lot better than we hope.
  11. The past few days he's been on some kind of bender. I'm wondering if the Ghislaine Maxwell/Epstein files that are being released on top of the DOJ files has anything to do with it. Are we going to get $2,000 checks next week to distract us?
  12. Of course Barron is an incel.
  13. @InkaUtexas posted this
  14. @HenryJames best comment: “I'm busy thinking about learning how to play the fife.”
  15. We are apparently planing on going after more tankers. Earlier story from the WSJ The move came just hours after Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado left the country on a boat, an escape that potentially gave the Trump administration an opening to take more aggressive action against the Maduro regime. “As you probably know, we’ve just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela—a large tanker, very large. The largest one ever seized, actually,” Trump said during an event at the White House on Wednesday afternoon. Attorney General Pam Bondi said the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Coast Guard executed a seizure warrant for the tanker with support from the Defense Department. In a video she posted on social media, uniformed men can be seen fast-roping onto the ship from helicopters and entering the bridge with guns raised. “For multiple years, the oil tanker has been sanctioned by the United States due to its involvement in an illicit oil shipping network supporting foreign terrorist organizations,” Bondi wrote on social media. The vessel had been used to transport “sanctioned oil from Venezuela and Iran,” she said. A Pentagon official said the move was a warning to other tankers waiting to dock and load up Venezuelan crude. Maritime tracking data shows around a dozen off the Venezuelan coast, but the official said others have their Automatic Identification System turned off to avoid detection. The U.S. has sanctions in place that prohibit companies from trading Venezuelan oil, though it has given exemptions to some companies, including Chevron, which this summer received a narrowed license to operate in the country. Trump has warned that he will level hefty tariffs on countries that buy oil from Caracas. Asked about the seizure at the White House, Trump joked that journalists should follow the tanker with a helicopter and said he assumed the U.S. would keep the oil. He also said that information about the ship’s owner would be forthcoming. Brokers in Singapore told The Wall Street Journal that a tanker called the Skipper was the vessel seized off Venezuela. The tanker, formerly called the Adisa, had been sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control for carrying Iranian crude
  16. We are definitely going to invade Venezuela. We are already boarding their tankers.
  17. Were they nude?
  18. We're really going to do it. We are just over a week out from the Epstein Files, and the Ghislaine Maxwell judge has ordered documents in her case relating to Epstein to be released as well.
