  1. They partially showed her assets twice in Eden. I don’t know a whole lot about her, but I do gather that quite a bit of her popularity is her looks. I did think she was pretty good in her role in Eden though.
  2. Eden. It was this week’s Monday night movie where Regal doesn’t tell you what it will be. It was interesting and it took me a bit to recognize Sydney Sweeney since she was playing a German woman. Ana de Armas and Vanessa Kirby were in it as well as Jude Law. Ron Howard directs it. It was a good one-off movie.
  3. The amount of people in TFG’s orbit that will eventually be found to be pedophiles is going to be quite the list.
  4. Sounds like fascism because, well, it is.
  5. Coming from New York to here one of the biggest adjustments is when I am walking somewhere. People meander A LOT when they walk here. Just all over the place like a drunk uncle at a cookout. I adjusted to it and it mostly doesn’t bother me because I mean what is the hurry to get anywhere here? We all live on an island in the middle of the Pacific. When I first arrived last year I had to realize life is the exact opposite of Manhattan. I move far slower now, but it took awhile. The drunk uncle-like walking from people is still odd to me, but I laugh about it more than anything now.
  6. One of the most hideous and appalling things that happened during the entirety of the 14 years of the Pacific War. The things human beings are capable of in a situation such as that are just breathtakingly horrific.
  7. Of course they don't. They also wouldn't realize that was one of the first groups of people to officially take on Christianity as their religion. They also believe in religious freedom so that's not gonna mesh well with the Pedo Party.
  8. There are times I have thought about wearing some headphones in places where it is really loud, but I haven't yet. It would help me out internally, but I like experiencing life and actively participating in the world around me when I can.
  9. Reading this for my first class of the fall semester. Larson put together quite a narrative with this one of that first year for Churchill as prime minister. So much was going on around him with his family as well as his advisers and ministers. Can’t believe this was happening 85 years ago.
  10. This was not a movie that I needed any backstory on the character.
  11. We absolutely do. These clowns will do everything in their power to convince you otherwise, but we have the ability to mock, belittle and generally make fun of them constantly. No strongman (or woman for that matter) likes being mocked. What Newsom did was a well-planned salvo at an idiot that will absolutely take the bait. You treat fascists like the overgrown spoiled brat children that they are and not as dignified people.
  12. Mr. Tanaka is quite the conflicted human being.
  13. That was hilarious. So many quotable moments. I'll let others see it before I say anything. @Parliament that was a spot-on comparison.
  14. You fight fascists by making fun of them. Newsom and his team finally came to the conclusion that others have throughout history that making fun of them and belittling them constantly is what really riles them up and causes the implosion sooner rather than later. The key though is Americans joining in and doing the same thing. It has to happen across the political spectrum as well and on social media. This is a good start though, but it's only the opening drive.
  15. About to watch it this evening. I did not see the first one, but the preview looks like a movie I’ll enjoy.
  16. Now ask the average American to recite this to you. They can’t. Now say the word socialist to maga and you will invariably hear them talk about the nazis. The word socialist needs to be reclaimed as being a good word here. It’ll take a good long while to do that, but you have to. The AOC part of the Democrats gets this. They own the word socialist. Socialism is a good thing for people. The humor of magats railing against socialism while getting a SOCIAL SECURITY check is never not funny.
  17. This word needs to be reclaimed as being good. The association with Nazi Germany needs to end. You cannot keep allowing these clowns in the Pedo Party to dictate things. Shying away from the use of the word is not a good thing.
  18. That ending will make me laugh every single time I see it. One of the finest endings to a movie I’ve ever seen. Everyone was laughing while it was happening.
  19. I went to that “violent hellhole” twice in 2020. Once to protest for the first time in my life for a week and again for election night. I never felt anything but safe there even during that time. This is what fascists do though so the truth of the situation matters none.
  20. How little has been learned 80 years on. Also the wording of this “surrender”, as all of you know, never actually used that word in the speech and it’s amazing how different this version of Japanese sounds from the common version of Japanese we all recognize when we hear it.. It’s no wonder Japan and China still have unresolved issues from this war when Hirohito would not even call this a surrender.
  21. I want the Mojave Desert. Once they are sentenced drop them off by parachute over the most remote and barren part they can find with no food or water.
  22. The party that condones pedophilia should rightfully be called the Pedo Party. Time to go full on with rhetoric based on what they have allowed to lead their party/cult. The time for being nice to anyone that supports it has long since passed.
  23. I was wondering when this would be posted. This happened nine years ago and of course it was the Bills Mafia that did it.
  24. Looks like the grass has really let itself go. I thought they made sure no one walked on it by punishment of death.
