You don’t have to turn it into a moral discussion. My opinion is that the death penalty wastes a ton of monetary and human resources which results in victims of other crimes getting shortchanged.
I fully agree, and beyond that the single worst action that ANY criminal justice system can carry out is to execute an innocent human. Not free a guilty one, not convict an innocent one, not fail to convict a guilty one, not fail to free an innocent one, but kill an innocent one.
Sadly, all of them happen to frequently, but if one can be easily avoided and it comes with the benefit of potentially freeing up resources to avoid others, logic dictates that it should be pursued vigorously.
Logic, not morals, religion or emotions.
Logic.
That's what pushed me to become anti-death penalty. It's illogical, highly illogical.
Not that I don't FEEL certain offenders deserve it. I absolutely do FEEL that way. I just don't condone nor support it because my logic supersedes my emotion on this topic.

Who the fuck doesn’t think Amanda Peet is hot? She’s been hot for 25 years and always an enjoyable presence.Are you new here? I give it 3 posts before a hater shows up.

Stick-
Episodes 6 and 7 about drove me off the course of the series. Santi is a bitch made pussy. Oh no, my caddie I'm into and fucking got paid to be my caddie and cause I'm a petulant litte shit head I'm mad (sad face emoji). Imma cry to mommy cause she enables me and I can fuck up her blossoming relationship with Maron (who is carrying the show, imo) Also, @Red Fiveis right needs way more Judy Greer and I better get my fucking Waylan Givens fix next episode or I'm fucking out
Your Friends and Neighbors -
Lotsa fun. I know Amanda Peet isnt considered "hot" by most Hollywood and certainly not Surly standards. I dont get it and I think she is way more talented than she gets credit for being. Also Olivia Munn and Aimee Carrero... hmmmm yes please.
Murderbot -
Maybe because I'm probably on spectrum and a mild sociopath, but I am enjoying a lot more than most of Surly.

Tekken was my favorite at that arcade on the drag. Forgot the name of it.
I was unstoppable with the drunken boxer... well until the asians got out of class anyway.
And his name was...
Einstein's, right there by the cult recruiting office of Space Lizard Central aka Scientology.

Momentary derail...
Ever in Chicago and want to hit some spots related to The Bear Armitage Orange Line L stop was featured several times this season.
Go to that stop and hit:
Absolutely the has the Sheffield area vibe and its right off the L. (Every neighborhood had a bit different vibe. The location where The Bear is located is in River North, my old hood. I recognize spots constantly.)

Grew up in Southeast Amarillo (not the swanky southwest side). There was a Toot n Totum (local convenience store chain) about a mile from our house we'd ride our bikes to, taking shortcuts down alleys and vacant lots, dodging crazy dogs, and angry old people who didn't like us riding across the lot next to their house. At the Toot n Totum, or as we referred to it, Fart and Fetchum, they had a little room with a couple arcade games that would rotate. I remember playing Spy Hunter, Tiger Heli, 1942. When we ran out of quarters, we'd shoplift a few pieces of super bubble (allegedly),then ride out into that hot, dry, dusty wind like the badasses we were, now headed for the lot that had the sweet jumps.
Well fuck! I know exactly where this was located. You went to Tascosa High, unless you moved. Fart and Fetchum indeed.
I usually didnt get to play the game as I was getting a cartoon of cigs for my grandma, one of the grumpy old folks you described above.
I once punched a kid for taking my younger cousin bike and ended up, no joke, fighting his dad.
He was fat and really slow.

And what do you say about its sequel? Because I'll watch that one, too.
Why wouldn't you?
Shit, I got a craving for both of them and an Aeon Flux binge right about now.
I'll be in my bunk!

Actually I don't mind Syd. Y'all are a bunch of babies.
Lol, Syd is the cry baby in this equation.
SpoilerI still like the show despite her, but have zero interest in a show built around her.
Mark it, she becomes the center piece of the show, it tanks, fast!

Heh. Go look at who wrote the screenplay... and see what that same guy has done lately.
Great movie.
Here's my latest additions:
* Mortal Kombat
* Heavy Metal
How in the fuck are you going to include Heavy Metal in this thread?!? It was a masterpiece of animation and music. It ushered in adult animation to the US. Helped make Heavy Metal music popular in the mainstream in the US. Altered animation styles for a decade, influenced a massive amount of culturally iconic film and TV production talent and gave me my first boner.
Does THIS look familiar:
No sir, Heavy Metal is among the top in art produced in US history of film.
It doesn't belong here.

Yeah, I don’t get the hate either. She is the amazing talented character with no self-confidence because once she jumped in the deep end with no help and sank like a rock. She’s exactly what she supposed to be.
And I think Edebiri is playing her to the hilt.
She is text book Mary Sue.
SpoilerShe doesn't have any of the notches on her belt that Luca has, yet now Luca is going to be in HER kitchen.
She's working for what she claims is the best in Carm, yet all she does is bitch and has "surpassed him". She has an episode, an entire fucking episode of shitty acting, writing and exposition, over 2 choices any chef would beg for in LIFE and its a fucking PROBLEM for her. A problem for a fucking noob, that a seasoned pro would KILL to have one option in a career. She is supported consistently by Carm, yes he's difficult, but it fucks her up and she can't deal. News fucking flash, almost all top chefs are a mother fucker to work for and the show makes that point extremely clear.
SpoilerShe is offered Carm's baby and all she does is fucking bitch about it. He admits his errors, has changed his ways, apologizies to her, owns it and.... she doesn't want to listen to him, won't accept what he's saying. Basically, doesn't give a flying fuck about Carm's personal struggles. Oh, yeah, your problems suck and things are looking up, but you can't quit Carm! Fuck your real life issues Carm I dont want this once in a life time opportunity to take over a great existing staff that seems to be humming now.
It's fucking annoying. Her choices as an actor suck. Her writing is way worse.
Suck a worm!

Needs more Mulaney and Pratt, and less Sydney.
Mulaney was fantastic.
I could post the same about a slew of other characters and their chemistry. In bold stripes Ebon Moss-Bachrach absolutely killed it this season. I fucking love Tiff but admittedly, I've been cyber stalking her since Community. Sugar kills all her scenes. I really love this cast, but the chemistry Syd has with other characters is just lackluster, the writing and/or her acting make that character super annoying and if the next season focuses even more on her it might run me off.
In all, I liked this season a lot, but Ayo's performance and Syd did a lot of damage for me. The best part of the Worms episode was the mom and her daughter, they were much more entertaining also:
SpoilerI don't need 40 fucking minutes of Exposition about something I already knew. If an actor and writers need an entire episode of exposition to a child and her struggles to explain what's going on within the character they suck at their job.

Try as they might they can never get back the feeling of an 80s arcade. There's no Rock-Afire Explosion. There's no more tokens. There's a few places here in DFW called Freeplay that scratch that itch with old arcade games. As a kid, I wanted nothing more than $20 in tokens and that could last me a few hours at Putt-Putt or Aladdin's Castle. Now when I play these games at a place where you pay a set fee and everything is free play, it's a lot easier to just get bored quickly with a game and walk away mid-game. At least Freeplay has decent food and beers.
Lulz we have so much childhood crossover. Aladdin's Castle.
Games were limited but vibe was amazing at Crystal's, pizza, a cartoons on a big screen, a few video games and unlimited self serve sundays. Putt Putt in Mesquite off Gus Thomasson. Malibu Gran Prix... oh hell yeah, batting cages, bumper boats, mini golf, game and go-karts.... fucking a man.

Something that has not been mentioned yet is the very, very close ties between LDS and MLM.
They are damn near one and the same. Many of the biggest ones are all based and run by higher up members in LDS. They run a great shell game.
Speaking of shell games, cults and areas of specialization, the pure, poorly written fictional cult of Scientology is a massive player in the Hollywood scene.
Though most of them honestly pale in comparison to my people's Cathonlic shenanigans.
Snake handling rednecks are among the creepiest at a visceral level though.

It’s an excellent book.
John Krakauer is probably my favorite documentary writer of all time. He's lived an amazing, wild life and tells his stories in such compelling and relatable ways.
Back to topic at hand... magic hats.
Magic Hats
Sure burning bushes and walking on water are also wild... but oh wait, I need a magic hat is next level dumbass shit. It's Monty Python type shit. Its no space lizards in volcanoes level insanity, but in its own way, more outlandish. "Let me put this here magic treasure finding stone in my hat. That'll help me remember."
Okay Jimmy Swagger, just don't fuck the hookers.

Power cut to Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant; Kyiv blames Russian strike
Ukraine Nuclear Power Plant Loses Power - Reuters
VIENNA - All external power lines supplying electricity to the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine were down on Friday, the U.N. nuclear watchdog said, and Ukraine blamed Russian shelling for severing the last power line.
Europe's biggest nuclear power plant, which is not operating but still requires power to keep its nuclear fuel cool, has switched to running on diesel generators, the International Atomic Energy Agency said.
The IAEA has repeatedly warned of the risk of a catastrophic accident at Zaporizhzhia, which is located near the front line in the war in Ukraine. Its six reactors are shut down, but the nuclear fuel inside them still needs to be cooled, which requires constant power.
"Ukraine's ZNPP lost all off-site power at 17:36 today, 9th time during military conflict and first since late 2023," the IAEA said on X. "The ZNPP currently relies on power from its emergency diesel generators, underlining (the) extremely precarious nuclear safety situation."
Ukraine's energy minister, German Galuschenko, wrote on Telegram that a Russian strike had cut the plant off.
"The enemy struck the power line connecting the temporarily occupied (Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant) with the integrated power system of Ukraine."
Neither the IAEA nor the plant's Russian-installed management initially cited a cause for the cut-off.
"The reasons for the disconnection are being clarified. The equipment at the station is in a safe state and under the control of staff. No violations of safety conditions have been noted," the Russia-installed management said.
