We reviewed the MOVIE Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

One of us liked it at the very least....we are debating putting Justin down for having such bad taste.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a CRAZY Movie (almost too crazy)

I get to talk about my favorite dialogue-driven film of all time, Sweet Smell of Success (1957)!

A film with main characters so mean-spirited and evil, that it would make Walter White and Travis Bickle blush.

Shout out to people who have funny usernames on social media rather than just their first and last name followed by a string of numbers. Variety is the spice of life

We discussed Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K Dick...it was indeed a book that has influenced a lot of sci-fi.

We watched and reviewed the classic Criterion film that EVERYONE picks from the Criterion Closet: A Woman Under the Influence!

It is also home to one of the greatest performances put to film. Give it a watch!

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

I get sports now. It's about reducing a man to numbers and then making those numbers do imaginary fights in your head.

I've built a city of unbelievable prosperity and delight but the residents don't know it all runs on the constant suffering of a single child. We're gonna tell them!

If they can live with that, they get to stay.

My hot take is that nobody would argue about if e-books or audio books really count as "reading" if everybody involved in the argument didn't see "reading" as a moral virtue as opposed to just a thing you can do like sitting down or folding clothes

Now imagine my game yells BALATRO at you on startup but every person has a different pronunciation of Balatro depending on their user ID to sew chaos
Bring back the game splash screen that yells the name of the game at you

Just met with some lovely folks who until recently worked at USAID and their implementing partners. Moving, heartbreaking, and enraging to hear the long-term impacts and wasted potential of our sudden, chaotic abandonment of global health aid.

just had a conversation with someone who thought Jeopardy! was too woke because it's either "ridiculously hard about useless things" and about "pop culture"

which is like the point of trivia lol
