It’s hard to overstate how important the film is to cinema. It pretty much established what the modern movie is.

That said, based strictly off of entertainment value. IMO it is just absolutely terrible.

No need to apologize to me dude. If you are that age and still feel like sex is the peak of your life’s achievement, then I am happy for you.

In fairness, I really like onion rings.

Depends on your age bracket, in my opinion.

At 20, it’s like catching the game winning touchdown for the national championship when your team was the underdog.

At 40, it’s like winning a hundred bucks on a lottery scratcher.

At 50, it’s like getting a free order of onion rings with your meal.

At 60, it’s like getting an extra nugget in your 9 piece.

Who said anything about solutions. Like I said, I am just asking questions here.

There is zero evidence for the Obama birther story, “The Big Lie” for the 2020 election, the Springfield Haitians, Kamala’s audio device earnings, or any other story the GOP tries to push. Since when is evidence really needed for them?

I mean I’m just asking questions here. If the implications make the GOP uncomfortable maybe they should address them.

I would agree that having someone else killed would be too far for it to be staged for most people. That said, I have seen no evidence that makes me think the GOP considers anyone who isn’t a billionaire or one of their mouthpieces a person.

To them, a random person in the crowd getting killed would just be a data point in their news story. Then just pack on a blood pack, and a fake bandage to sell it like wrestlemania 23.

I am firmly convinced, based solely on what the tinfoil hat whispers to me, that both of these “attempts” were funded by the GOP as an effort to drive media attention towards Trump.

After all, they have fully admitted to making up stories to get media attention. Is it really too far of a stretch to think that they would pay some poor sucker they view as disposable into being a threat in his general vicinity. The whole thing just feels like a media stunt from a wrestling promo.

Amigo the Devil - Hell and You

Every time this happens, I am reminded of this Pulitzer prize-winning article.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/fatal-distraction-forgetting-a-child-in-thebackseat-of-a-car-is-a-horrifying-mistake-is-it-a-crime/2014/06/16/8ae0fe3a-f580-11e3-a3a5-42be35962a52_story.html

It can happen to anyone, but a large majority will never believe that. It’s a heart-rending situation.

Neither, they are actively working towards Russia’s goal just like they were paid to do, and they don’t seem to be pretending at all.

I think a lot of people are missing the next step of the plan. First, they push a bill that specifically says it is illegal for non citizens to vote. Assume the bill passes, because why wouldn’t it? You already have to be a citizen to vote. It’s all political theater, after all, so there is no need to pick a fight.

Then red states come through with a fucked up interpretation of the law that says felons are no longer U.S. citizens. Now it is illegal for felons to ever vote again. The law would be challenged, appealed, and eventually make its way to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court, that is absolutely going to side with the “States right” to choose what happens to their felons.

Finally, they use selective enforcement of law combined with aggregate data from any number of sources to build felony cases specifically against political rivals. Then you have red states that can never go blue again.

This is all fascism 101.

There is a very distinct plan here. They want to drive out the teachers who believe in empathy and compassion, instead to replace them with the kind of person who prefers armed hierarchical power settings.

This is just another way to change the education system for the worse, and if it continues, it will take generations to fix.

Alabama Shakes - Boys and Girls, specifically I have “Hold On” running on loop. That song has just been like brain candy for me recently.

I have the Spark 40, and absolutely love it. It allows me to change settings ridiculously easily, and sounds great pretty much across the gamut. It is in my mind the perfect practice amp for a living room, or bedroom setup.

It also allows you to wire directly to your pc to use as an audio interface. I have not used the others on your list, but in my mind at least it’s hard to go wrong with the spark.

Lastly, it is bluetooth compatible, and I use it as my primary Bluetooth speaker when listening to Spotify from my phone.

I would imagine it would take a multi-level caste system, and generations of reinforcement combined with a prescribed dogmatic belief in processes (Think Warhammer 40k Adeptus Mechanicus).

Even then I dont think it would be a terribly agile organization and my guess is that it would react to external changes very very slowly as all the information would have to slowly filter up through the various castes.

So I obviously cannot choose the wine in front of me.

For me, I am way more comfortable improvising, noodling, or jamming while high, but my focus becomes way too shit tier for me to put in a mindful practice.
