For pity's sake, do we even know Vince Vaughn's politics? I couldn't care less that he shook Trump's hand in a box, and then bolted. Not every situation is 100/0. He might actually be a Trumpkin, in which case I might not attend his next great flick, which will never happen. (Shout out to "Swingers", in which he was awesome.)
Who knew that out of Swingers, Jon Favreau would be the one to end up decades later in the top-tier of Hollywood, and would help kick-start a 24+ movie comic book empire, and would be guiding the Star Wars franchise.

"A new state law to crack down on skimmers just went into effect this month; but with it, consumers lost access to some valuable information. House Bill 2945 says we can no longer find out where law enforcement agencies are finding the devices that steal our credit card data."
"Law enforcement is no longer allowed to share the names of businesses where officers found skimmers except to report the information to the AG, other law enforcement agencies, the payment fraud fusion center and any financial institution that may be impacted."
"According to Perez’s chief of staff, lawmakers made the concession to the food and fuel lobby that represents gas stations in exchange for their support of the bill.
When regulators like the Texas Department of Agriculture have released the names of businesses where they found skimmers in the past, the business owners say they lost customers for weeks and months afterward, even though the skimmers were removed."
"Investigators said calling out gas stations that are also victims of the financial crime isn't always fair. They need gas stations to work with law enforcement. When owners are worried they’ll be put on blast for self-reporting devices they found, they will be less likely to do so for fear of losing business. "

It isn't always fair to put this businesses on blast, so that people can find out if their CC may have been affected? Fuck that. Secure your machines and you don't have to worry about your shit getting put on blast on the evening news.

Raises hand.
the card game was bananas. Talk about hammering a bit.It’s becoming a cliche with streaming shows, but this show took about 4-5 episodes before it found its footing and was firing on all cylinders. Children’s Hospital episodes ran 12-minutes and were usually ensemble shows, so that maybe the reason.

When the death star blows up alldaran(?), it's the cheesiest crap ever. I don't know how they could have made it better in the 70's, but it's troma level bad.
They really couldn't, due to gravity and how things blow up on earth, etc.. Those wireframe graphics you saw in the gunner sights were cutting edge back then.

This is where the problem lies. The fact that the military is one of the few dignified livings that a blue collar type can make is symptomatic of the erosion of both our middle and working classes.
It's such an odd experience with an extremely unique set of circumstances. Some states even toss in benefits for National Guard members - Louisiana has a tuition exemption for current National Guard members: https://veterans.louisiana.edu/content/benefit-types/louisiana-national-guard-exemption
