  • This was a movie that I’d seen one day and promptly forgot the name of it. I tried in vain to find out years later. I asked my mom and she had no idea what I was talking about. I asked everyone and no one even knew. I was convinced it was a fever dream or something.

    Until I heard Tech N9ne’s Everybody Move and he said “Falling Down like Michael Douglas” and it was a core memory unlocked and I finally got to watch it again.

    It was every bit as good as I remember.



  • I mean, not to say she looks bad but she’s certainly not my type. I can’t tell whether it’s makeup, surgery, smoothing filters or ‘yes’ but she’s got a specific look that just doesn’t do it for me.

    I know, I know, everyone says “I like blah blah blah” and it doesn’t matter but I can certainly see why people aren’t digging it.

    Like, she could totally be an amazing person and if she likes the way she looks, good for her, so my opinion literally doesn’t matter. Whether my standards are too high or my self esteem too low, it doesn’t matter at all.


  • No, they killed the hostages and left. If they tried to hold up, and maybe go for a prisoner swap, there’d be more people at risk.

    Not claiming Hamas is good but if there’s no resistance, they don’t kill as many people while finding the bodies.

    They’re not trying to protect the ‘innocent’, they didn’t want the IDF gunning them down. When they saw the news about the IDF laying waste to everyone, they said “Fuck that,” killed the hostages and left.

    Warfighting 101, that’s why you don’t go scorched earth for your hostages. If you make it a smart move to just kill them, they’ll just get killed…

    Granted if you’re not looking for the hostages but looking to make your opponent look more inhuman, well, in that case great idea.










  • I remember the day as well. I walked all through the store grabbing everything I needed and while waiting in the checkout I realized I forgot the milk. I laughed and said “Oh wow” then the guy behind me looked at me and I shrugged and said “I forgot the milk!” and left the line I’d been standing in for a few minutes to get the milk.

    My age at the time didn’t matter because it was on that day, I became old. Talking to strangers in the grocery store, forgetting to get the milk, and laughing about it? Old.




  • Should Russia get a black eye and Ukraine be pleased by Chinese assistance, when the Western spigot gets turned off, then China will have an amazing hook on Ukraine. Putin quietly gets told his place, Ukraine has stockpiles of Western gear to sell and China has another part of the Belt and Road.

    Of course, the West will try to keep the funds flowing but without “big strong Russian bear” knocking at their door they’ll drop them like a new year’s resolution.

    Now, Ukraine gets to play Belle of the ball courting China and the West and in the end The Rich win. Exactly according to plan.
