The Political Thread - Browncoat edition... down with the Alliance!
Considering how many "conservative" talking heads I've seen declaring victory or spinning it as a small battle in a long war added to how nothing so far has really stuck to Donny John, I'm skeptical that he is anywhere close to done politically.

What are you playing right now?
Yoga Fire turn based mode!!! Some initial impressions - spell use, especially AoE spells, and abilities in general are much easier to manage and it still plays fairly quickly. I've also bumped up the difficulty because it also makes encounters easier. I'm still on starter island which has always been easy but it seems even easier.

The Food Thread
It's funny because I was grilling the other day and thought about trying indirect heat first then searing but I had no idea it was called the reverse sear. Thanks for that!

2K Sports games do something similar in that the copies they send to reviewers have a bunch of virtual currency so they never experience the depth of the ever increasing grind.

I fell asleep about 20 minutes in, maybe less. PS I don't mind slow movies or need action but I was just bored and didn't sleep much the night before

Thanks, LC! I was pondering whether or not to give IO a try and now I think I will.

Would you include Suicide Squad? Will Smith is the biggest name on that one and it came out about a year and half before Black Panther.

Good Old Games
I just bought Atom but I don't know when I'll get around to it. I have such a huge backlog because I always play the same few games over and over.

Just switched away from the Philly game since the team I wanted to lose is totally lost. Embiid was a beast.

Just watched some Ancient Aliens and they did put out the "Interstellar" theory but they were largely dismissive of it. I thought it was strange that the theory wasn't a "profound yes" like every other theory they put out there.

Finished the Punisher season 2 and also have some mixed feelings. I was pleasantly surprised on the direction they took a couple of the side plots but the rest was pretty standard. I also found myself bored a few times but usually during some of the action scenes. Getting pummeled half to death only to come back again and again gets old fast. I still think he has some kind of healing factor. SNL after we finished that. Kind of a blah episode and we didn't like the 70s cover band either. The Mule review was definitely the best part.

Punisher season 2 on the docket for tonight. Will definitely also catch the latest episode of the Orville and still plan on waiting until all of Discovery is out. I've heard some positive things about the first episode of STD such as the rest of the bridge crew finally has names that we get to know.

Who cares about the State of the Union address? Doesn't if come from some requirement that the president has to Congress rather than the other way around?

Wasn't sure whether to put this here, the basketball thread, or maybe even the random news thread.

I can't say that I'm excited about a PS5 yet mostly because my PS4 just collects dust. Especially if they try to force VR because I have a headset that I haven't used in months. I don't get sick or anything but I haven't played or watched anything that I've ever wanted to go back to on a regular basis. - Cinéma vérité - and all other types
