    That is Cooper Hoffman, son of Phil Seymour Hoffman in the lead.

    well this made me tear up! i did not know that. PSH was my absolute favorite for years, i was in line at HEB reading on my phone when i saw the news and i literally started crying in line 💔

    also 2 of my top 10 movies are PTA (Boogie Nights and There Will Be Blood). the discussion elsewhere about both Tarantino and the Coen bros. 'retiring' soon was terribly depressing...please please please let PTA continue making excellent movies for a long time!

    someone like me who doesn't do comic book/super hero movies... it's so damn refreshing for someone to do something interesting and unique.

  2. anybody done any investing in marijuana, as in stocks? anecdotally it seems the few Canadian pot stocks don't do well/haven't done well over the years. our money guy has said some US tobacco companies are poised to cash in if/when federal decriminalization happens. 

    hindsight is 20/20 on everything, shoulda bought apple in the 80s, Ford in 2008, etc....would be fun to get in at the beginning of something like that and i can't help but think it's gonna happen at some point...may have a bit of money to play with in a few months, just wondering if anybody has an insight on anything like that?

    Losing is the worst thing imaginable. Winning is the only remotely acceptable outcome, preferably while crushing your opponent in every imaginable way.

    to be fair, replace 'A&M' with 'Texas' and that was half the posters here two weeks ago

    i know what this is supposed to be and where it originated... but i missed the initial debut. was it ever explained what was actually IN it?? every time i see it i just think...brown rice? black beans? velveeta?? 

    like...was there literally no chili ingredients in this thing? 😳

     

    oh, topic... we've always gone more casual/easy...individual homemade pizzas is a fav. a dozen+ bowls of all different toppings, cheeses, etc., and small individual crusts (pitas work great), people build what they want then pop 'em on the grill. anti-fancy but fun!

    Also, you just said the quiet part out loud. Democrats don't want the upper middle class to exist. Not because we are aesthetically displeasing and gross, because we are with all our cheap, gaudy accoutrements and boring styles, but because it's better to drag the upper middle class into the bigger population pool of poor/working class in order to broaden consensus and get stronger voting blocs to wield power against the vampire billionaires and other evil rich people who enjoy outsize influence and control. The upper middle class is a necessary death, it seems, to you people.

  8. maybe - and yes i'm being hopeful - those beds aren't quickly being refilled with NEW dying covid patients bc it's finally starting to sink in that the finding out part of FAFO is...not great, Bob! and they are seeing friends, family, and demagogues actually dying. maybe people are, i dunno, actually learning? i mean, it could happen.
