I would like to recommend the Watchmen show on HBO. I watched it recently, and really, really enjoyed it.

This is coming from someone who has gotten bored of the hero's journey marvel movies, but read and really liked Watchmen, and thought the movie was great.

I'd rather listen to someone who has no idea what they're talking about. I go to a mechanic for my taxes, a financial advisor for law advice, and a doctor for investment advice.

/S... If it wasn't obvious

Both things can be true. Just because it isn't the top priority, doesn't mean that science is NOT leading the experts to recommend getting a booster.

The science is leading to recommendations of getting the booster, and being unvaccinated is worse than being vaccinated without the booster.

Interesting take. Let's ask Maury:

Andrew Cuomo determined... That was a lie.

Thank goodness. TIL Steve Buscemi is not the Space Dementia survivor I thought he was. I always felt so bad that he had to go through that.

Man, I haven't listened to the dramatic reading to this in more than 10 years, but I could only read this in that guy's voice.

It's definitely not the Blink you're used to, so don't expect that - but it's still so good. Matt absolutely kills it on the vocals. For what it's worth, this is coming from someone who absolutely loves Alkaline Trio, and used to watch The Urethra Chronicles with my brother after Blink's "hiatus", and then just talk about how sad it was that they weren't friends anymore. And I still love Post-Tom Blink.

Self-titled is just solid gold.

As different as it is sans Tom, I also really liked NiNe. No Heart to Speak Of is just... Fucking phenomenal.

I admire your ability to debate with someone that's so clearly arguing in bad faith, and saying your words mean the opposite of what you're saying.

Respect.

Is there where I sign up for the American Football/Mike Kinsella fan club?

I'm not sure if this is a hot take, but I think new American Football is better than the old. How they broke through my nostalgia wall I'll never know.

Have you thought about how contagious it is, and the amount of the worlds population that could get it... And what even 1% of that number is?

You didn't say this, but it's a related thought: I always hear that wearing a mask = living in fear. I'm not afraid that I'll get covid and die. If I'm asymptomatic, I don't want to spread it to someone else that has a higher chance of dying. Or someone who maybe lives with an older person that gets it and ends up dying.

It's an easy thing to wear, like wearing safety glasses in a shop, and can save someone else from losing someone they love.

Anyway, I think that when it comes to covid (which is a ridiculous thing to politicize, btw), people on the right tend to assume that people on the left are worried about themselves as an individual, rather than the effect on the population as a whole.

I love the idea of punishment being equal to the amount of lives you made worse. I mean, I think that when you die, nothing happens... But if something does happen, I'd like to think that that's the way it would be.

No, you're damn right. For all of their complaining about people taking advantage of the system, they sure seem to enjoy doing it.

I didn't vote for him, and I don't agree with a lot of his views. But this is awesome. I hope he's able to do that.

At least their parking lots are good for doing donuts in the snow, learning how to ride a bike, and learning how to drive stick.

Man, I played through Oracle of Ages so much as a kid. I loved it. I only ever rented Seasons, so I never finished it until much later with an emulator

I pee sitting down to avoid splashback and potential double-streams or surprise bends. It really just makes cleaning the toilet easier. Please don't lump me in with the most insane right wing nut jobs, haha.

Ignorant man here with a dumb question, could you just say "friend"? What is the reason for specifying?

This is something I've never actually thought about before.
