Police earning the hate
Psychopath. That's not hyperbolic. At no point does it seem like he is being harmed, and his voice seems level and calm. He just two taps the dog because he's tired of dealing with it. Jesus.

I am not a lawyer, but I did take the LSAT in 1995. Is it just Hollywood fiction, but doesn't each side get a certain about of blocks for jurors? Like maybe the prosecution was out of options to remove the Truth Social juror or they feared there were worse candidates in the pool.

I think I mentioned that both of my sons took their road tests with their driving instructor(s), which reduced the stress levels (for everyone). This last time, the instructor mentioned that when you go to the DMV to get your new license after completing a successful road test with the instructor, ...

401928 We finally got through the first two eps of The Night Manager Night Manger was awesome, loved this miniseries. So a few of us watched this back in the day (what happened to relantel ?), but I was not aware that Amazon MGM studios (yikes) and the BBC have renewed it for two more seasons. Afte...

They also love the engagement when they say negative things about Biden. It's a win win! And the social media companies love all of it. Idiots fighting bots about engagement posts made by North Korean, Russian, and Iranian bot farms. Hell, evidently Mossad (via Israeli shell companies) was pushing t...

Just a mini rant here for posterity. My youngest son got his restricted daytime license a few weeks ago, which means he can drive from sunrise to sunset for the next year. If he doesn't get a ticket or other infraction, the license automatically upgrades to a regular license. Unfortunately, most of ...

Attempting to write my annual review. I basically take last year's review and update it, but even then it is beyond tedious. Every time I maximize the browser tab it's in, I immediately open up another tab to do something else.

Travel baseball had a time limit, innings limit, or run rule. Of course, when you have to play 4 games in 2 days (if not more) they need to turn the fields over quickly to do that.

I watched The Cruel Sea yesterday, a 1953 British WWII naval film. Very well done, but very much of its age. A contemporary review in the NY Times complained about it being too long at 2:06 minutes.

FFS, The Fall Guy was streaming 2-3 weeks after US theatrical. My wife and I saw it the second weekend, and I think it was available the next week. What's the point of movie theaters? I loved going to the theater, but if studios are going to keep doing this stuff (ie shortening the rent/own window),...

Was Candy Man there last night? I was not a Pirates fan in 1979 - still living in MA - but I remember watching that World Series. Man, Pittsburgh in the 70s was something else.

Big fan of Emerald Isle, Pine Knoll Shores, etc. Haven't been there in years, sadly, because we live near a beach. Supposedly. Which pizza place RonnieFranchise ? Back in the '90s we used to go to Michaelangelo's, but that doesn't have great reviews these days. Also looks like there's a Publix on EI...

Some video game/comic book guy I follow on Threads (who loathes Musk/Tesla and the GOP) was praising Libertarians last night, and I almost reported his account as hacked. Now I know why.
