  1. If my job was to speak in public railing against hypocrisy and advocating for free speech AND I could still make millions elsewhere, I would absolutely turn down multitudes of my net worth to publicly sell out to the Saudis. And lots of athletes rejected them. Now, Saudis want me to work in an office for 6 months pounding away at a keyboard inside air conditioning for 10mil. Ill take it. If you cant see the difference then I cant help you. FYI - Probably the equivalent of Kevin Hart taking 10 mil is like me doing it for 10k.
  2. Ive seen a lot of “not as good as Infernal Affairs” talk online and on Surly. Much more than think it’s a Top 25 movie.
  3. I dont understand this opinion. Now that Ive seen Infernal Affairs, which was an inspiring, yet flawed original and lost something in translation, I especially dont understand this opinion. There’s not any aspect of the movie that was not well done and seeing Nicholson act in a thriller with a great director is a rare treat. And I can rewatch this movie a million times. With respect to the mole hunt, keep in mind moles and informants arent always good guys. That Costello himself was a mole proves the point and adds to the storytelling - irony and shit.
  4. Dems exploit windows about as effectively as Greg Davis coordinated Iowa.
  5. Hey my dad was in the Air Force. He got a medal for typing and another one for surfing.
  6. Maybe you should forward that to Jim Jeffries.
  7. Sanders aint beating out Cooper Rush
  8. Yeah we buy gas from Saudis. And we do bad things here. “You think the US is so innocent? Tell that to 30000 Iraqis and Afghans who we bombed…We bomb a wedding party and offer them so spare cash lying around like my Uncle Irvin offering to pay for the vase he broke while he was piss drunk…”
  9. Then there are bookstores all over and they occupy sidewalks with brunch cafes. You cannot distinguish the hippies, hipsters, and homeless from one another. People walk around.
  10. Most of these shooters would not qualify or be easily diagnosed with any type of mental illness, for them to be committed to mental institutions. These are mostly white males, who are undersexed and under-motivated to lead productive lives. They doom scroll, intoxicate themselves, and/or are bored. They have high opinions of themselves, but at the same low self-esteem. These shooters generally can plan and know what they’re doing is illegal. AI and social media algorithms can radicalize them.
  11. Im not sure I agree here. The Yogurt shop case was largely forgotten for years before this doc. And the doc itself was largely a glorified Dateline. The cops and family members will have to fight thru some cognitive dissonance as they realize the men they demonized and almost had murdered were innocent all along.
  12. It’s quite inconvenient. APD helped two innocent dudes rot in prison on death row. Two of the most high profile murderers in Austin history (also Servant girl murders) lead to multiple innocent people get jailed and the murderers never brought to justice except after they died.
  13. Portnoy’s gonna get some people killed. But as long as they sign waivers. GTFO
  14. I did like the sign that read “Joe Knew”
  15. I know its not a movie, but Band of Brothers was a fantastic antifa series.
  16. “Drill, baby, drill!” Also…”the administration wants crude oil at $40 per barrel.” This is a perfect encapsulation of the obtusity of Trump economics and the lower tier industry honks who believe they are part of the plan. You’re not. Last I checked Texas went bigly for Trump and blue collar workers leaned Trump as well. $40 per barrel aint happening, but also is too low for the sector and especially Texas. What you could get is a collapse of exploration because things don’t move and don’t get made. Then scarcity creates bigger problems.
  17. It’s the juxtaposition.
