:up: A stupid poll by a crappy right-wing institution, whipping into a frenzy other right-wing goofs like Scott Adams. I’m glad he’s been canceled. No...

Neitzsche!

By TZ Lavine? That’s great. They have her reading her own material on YouTube from a series years ago which I like a lot. Your post was interesting— t...
February 27, 2023 at 05:19
Yeah I just completely missed that one. Too focused on preventing castling, and moving too quickly. Even Rd8 would have been better now that I look at...
February 26, 2023 at 22:51
I resign. I should have done so a while ago probably. To add insult to injury, I get the comment from the computer basically saying that I blew it: /u...

That’s not the reason I blundered. You’ve played a very good game and deserve the win. I was just giving you shit because I’m used to playing 3-10 min...
February 26, 2023 at 04:56
No trap, just a mindless move. C4 was a blunder and most likely cost me the game. This is what happens when you spend less than a minute on a move. :r...

Watching “Cunk on Earth” on Netflix. Very funny.
February 25, 2023 at 02:30
That’s the point. There’s very few “challenges” to alternative views, beyond what you yourself have demonstrated nicely.
February 25, 2023 at 01:17
Seems to be accurate when looking at the evidence. But by no means certain.
February 24, 2023 at 20:40
It’s not close to being 99.9% certain and obvious to me. Whatever point you’re trying to make — if there is one — utterly fails. Both as sarcasm or sa...

One year into a war instigated and prolonged by the United States. Looks like China is pushing for a ceasefire. So that’s how grown-ups behave… Anyway...
February 24, 2023 at 15:05
Appreciate you sharing this. It’s interesting to hear what leads some people to philosophy and others to have nearly no interest. Yes, definitely, and...

How about “the fact that we’re even talking about an ‘external world’ is kind of ridiculous” as an option?
February 20, 2023 at 21:36
Are you nuts? That movie was fantastic.

I can add that I even messaged him privately with some advice only a week or so ago, which he seemed to appreciate. It’s too bad, he was a very affabl...

This looks amazing. I have yet to try plum pie. I’ll add it to my list. Damn.
February 19, 2023 at 18:17
Not sure if I said this before, but Phoebe Bridgers is amazing. And I’m in love. Anyway — Her Tom Petty cover is great — though my wife, who’s a huge ...
February 19, 2023 at 18:15
The Godfather had a decent cast…
February 19, 2023 at 12:19
Best cast overall? Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Or maybe Royal Tenanbaums. The Firm also had a great cast.
February 18, 2023 at 05:02
This is equating “reality” with the empirical. It also seems to assume Descartes’ dualism: the apple as part of the res extensa in the first instance ...
February 18, 2023 at 04:58
If you’re talking about Sam Harris, Dawkins, Hitchens and Dennett, then I largely agree. Dennett at least has philosophical things to say, but I’ve be...

Except this doesn’t happen. We’ve seen the “real effects” of tax cuts over and over again. The latest round in 2017 resulted mostly in stock buybacks....

I’ve watched that multiple times. Not only is it great advice for filmmakers, it’s great advice for life. Fantastic.
February 16, 2023 at 04:22
I like my position more than his right now… I think the Vegas odds are on my side.
February 16, 2023 at 00:40
I meant to pick 3 hours…
February 16, 2023 at 00:39
Got it. :up: If I lose it’ll be because of I’ve died of old age. Not sure we’d have enough people, but it’d be fun if we did. We could simply set up b...
February 15, 2023 at 17:36
Yeah but the game reviews are mostly bullshit. Pawn to g4 wasn’t brilliant but it was definitely excellent, and exactly the kind of move the computer ...
February 15, 2023 at 01:14
It’s taken me no more than 2 or 3 minutes to move so far. I guess some people need a lot longer… :cool:
February 12, 2023 at 05:00
Yes…bore the opponent to insanity.
February 12, 2023 at 00:57
Your move buddy… :yawn:
February 12, 2023 at 00:56
:up: My thoughts too.
February 10, 2023 at 15:11
Your move buddy…
February 09, 2023 at 04:07
Yes. The reason is obvious. Streaming services have largely destroyed the importance of theaters, attention spans are shorter than they were before, a...

:yawn:
February 07, 2023 at 13:34
I thought of a few more: The Limey (Soderbergh) The Insider (Michael Mann) Both 1999.
February 06, 2023 at 20:19
Indeed I will—appreciated!

We’ll all be DEAD before we finish this game…

I have this recurring dream where I’m looking for a small Italian pizza place in Boston. I never find it but I know the menu: pizza by the slice, calz...
February 04, 2023 at 14:16
And here’s one probably no one has seen which I liked a lot: Coupe De Ville.
February 04, 2023 at 14:11
Not sure if anyone mentioned Bicycle Thieves. Great movie.
February 04, 2023 at 14:10
Yeah what’s hilarious is that it isn’t even done for comedic effect. This is how he wants his worshippers to see him: Superman.
February 04, 2023 at 00:06
That picture. :rofl:

Just the damage done to the environment for 4 years under his administration should get the chair.

Yep. The list of Trump’s crimes grows. Will he be prosecuted? Probably not. Funny to watch the super-objective people who screamed endlessly about Hil...
