Generally correct.

The [s]First[/s] Only Trump term...so far

"This is proof the democrats are crooked and Biden is weaponizing the government to suppress an opponent."

That being said, a cranky judge who threatened people who made eye contact with him isn't a good look.

Would be amusing to follow the jury for the next 6 months and see which of them end up rich.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024)

Me and the kid watched it again, doing our part to get the numbers up. Second time around, I was able to look at the cinematography more, since I wasn't riveted by the story. There are a couple of absolutely brilliant technical film scenes. Hard to describe without being able to talk with my hands. ...

The Fall Guy (2024)

It was ok. I'd say a little more enjoyable than most of the rom/com/action/whatever movies I've seen the last few years. But not life changing.

Well shit, might as well be pro wrestling if that kind of officiating was tolerated.

There must be some clause somewhere that teams are guaranteed fair officiating. I'm surprised the MLB didn't get sued by a team after the 3rd obviously bad call.

So what are they doing, taking 50 resumes, copy/pasting them into a google ai window, and saying "give me the best ones?" I assumed there was some app wrapped around that process that some company was selling.

Just finished Shogun. My kid informed me that season 2 has already been greenlit, in spite of the book ending right where season 1 ended, and there was no sequel to the book. Not a half hour I told him that if there is one universal truth, it's that TV screenwriters think they are better and more ta...

If he had a track record for being shitty, why was he allowed to continue?

In a union?

He helped ticket sales?

HR people are using a packaged program to filter resumes. The company that makes that software has already seen that post, and fixed it, and they'll advertised their product as "new and improved."
