  1. You should have seen the confusion on my wife's face when BTS was on SNL. Priceless.
  2. I don't have a problem with those you mentioned because it's more silly. When it's serious business time travel as opposed to timey wimey stuff I think is where it differs for me.
  3. ^Which is generally why I don't like time travel
  4. I've never watched Breaking Bad. I know it's supposed to be great but the subject matter has absolutely zero appeal to me. Same with the Wire, just not something I care to see. I've said before that I kind of liked the things Johnson was trying to do in TLJ but they didn't work for me in the context of a middle Star Wars movie and maybe I'd like his own stand alone trilogy much better. I think that still stands.
  5. Watched Brick and Looper I did actually like Brick but didn't really care much for Looper. It might have been my dislike for time travel that just made me be a view it a little more critically but I thought that it had a lot of holes in the story. Maybe as a "don't really think about it" type of movie I might have enjoyed it more. I did like it more than TLJ though so there's that. I'll upgrade Johnson from 0-1 to 1-2.
  6. My only problem with an all volunteer service is that is has been leading us into developing a kind of warrior caste. The greater population has no investment in the military and therefore less interest in how they are used.
  7. I also never forgave Janeway for murdering Tuvix or the crew for not defending him in the slightest. I do think these kind of morality episodes are probably my favorite but in this case I don't recall that Tuvix even got a trial like Data did to prove his personhood. Might need to rewatch. Janeway is easily my least favorite headlining captain of all the Trek series. Though I still haven't started season 2 of Enterprise and barely remember season 1.
  8. I've still never forgiven Voyager for changing Nick Locarno into Tom Paris.
  9. Biden announced that he's going to announce his announcement or however it works nowadays.
  10. I've been waiting for any excuse to post this We started watching the Rookie just for Fillion. I think we're only like 3 episodes in and it's better than we thought it would be but it still doesn't fill that Castle shaped hole in our hearts. That reminds me, I've been meaning to rewatch Slither. E: autocorrect on my phone changed Fillion to filling me... or does it know something I don't E2, Brute: We laughed so hard at the club scene on the Orville.
  11. RoadBlasters all day everyday
  12. Here's a link for the program https://www.uscis.gov/military/naturalization-through-military-service
  13. When I was in the military we had two people in my company who were serving to get their citizenship but I've heard that it's become a lot harder now than it was back then.
  14. Best part for me was when That said, I didn't hate it but I've completely given up on it being what I want or look for in a Trek show. Pike was my favorite part of the second season so I'd be down for that series. It seems like the episode could have doubled as a back door pilot anyways. Bonus points for edit 32: more redactions than the Mueller report
  15. I totally didn't share that link for the picture of Salma Hayek either, nope.
  16. Billionaires raced to pledge money to rebuild Notre Dame. Then came the backlash.
  17. Short ribs have been in the slow cooker for almost a full day now and I can't walk anywhere near the kitchen without my mouth watering On the menu for tonight is short ribs with red peppers, black garlic hummus, and pita
  18. I want to sleep but we don't usually get along. We have a complicated relationship.
  19. It wouldn't have been so bad if it had stopped about 1/3 of the way in
  20. Looks like ADHD the movie I'm in
  21. I think I've finally got it. Barr looks like a cross between Elton John and John Goodman. I don't mean that as an insult or anything but it's been bugging me since his mug has been on the news all day. Now I can finally put that niggle to rest.
  22. HIV used to cure 'bubble boy' disease
  23. It's a fairly common issue but there are some things that can be done to help. https://www.howtogeek.com/241285/why-video-games-make-you-feel-sick-and-what-you-can-do-about-it/
  24. I'd normally agree but the Star Wars movie stories haven't been that great. I think the games have been better in that regard. I'd be down for a limited Keanu Revan series too
