Ah, forgot Good Omens was Amazon. Yeah, that was special.

Goliath is probably my favorite Amazon series. But hey, I am there for the free 2 day shipping. 👍

Thanks for checking, my family and I are alright and were not in attendance.

GoT had a ton of great episodes and moments, so I don't see the cause for concern. Although the two properties have vastly different tones, so who knows?

Fringe is good, but I liked the original show better.

Wow classic
Lord of the Rings Online needs a classic launch.

RAND0M VIDE0 GAME NEW5
All of these games are old. It's amazing that the lifecycle has lasted this long in the first place. Like, I have no idea how ArenaNet has stayed in business. They are magicians.

New season of Veronica Mars is on Hulu. Seems like it picked up right where the old one left off. I'm only halfway through the first episode, but I'm looking forward to it.

Hard to imagine anyone other than Tom Hanks pulling that role off.

Drove home today and unloaded the RV. It's good to be back in the land of wifi.

A.s others have stated, nothing wrong with using a trial to watch a series. Netflix typically releases the entire season all at once, so also no reason to wait for episodes. With Netflix, your subscription unlocks all the content they have licenses for.

What? I mean, you pay like $10 a month for the whole library. You can watch it and just cancel your sub after a month. Heck, you can probably even watch it on a free trial period. I'm not sure you can find a better bargain for your entertainment dollars. Maybe the public libraries are a better deal, but that's about it.

What you did Today: The Story of you
We had a fun weekend at Donner Lake. On Saturday my wife did her first sprint triathlon. I think I was as nervous as she was. She did great. The swim was the big hurdle, and she got through it. Very fun to be cheering instead of racing. Today I did the Olympic Triathlon. I did it last year and it was beautiful. It was the only race I wanted to do again. I improved my time by 11 minutes, so it was fun to see the progression.

Politics: The Final Frontier
Well, they are supposed to be representatives for their district, so Trump is really speaking to everyone who voted for them.

What are you playing RIGHT NOW?
I think so. Although it is a pretty fast progression, and I believe you can set server rules to increase speed.

I am curious if it would be worth creating a private Obsidian pve server for Conan Exiles. I am enjoying it as a single player experience, but it would be nice to share the space.

Shakespeare was just the sjw version of a bunch of greek plays.

Hollywood has been re-imagining classics since anything was old enough to be considered a classic, so I think the answer is more that there are simply more whiners on the internet nowadays.

Beg-Packers
I'd also argue Sharpie's point about rich western kids. Rich kids don't backpack across Europe and stay in Hostels. These are likey middle class kids, maybe even upper middle class, but hardly rich. The rich use yachts and stay in fancy palaces. Thry are probably on a tight budget and this is one way for them to keep they trip going. Sounds miserable to me, but I doubt this is something new. The hippy parallel is correct.

Again, it looks like they were performing, not just begging ( I didnt watch either, just based on the picture :p). Playing a guitar on the street is different than sitting with a sign out. Both people might be dealing with similar circumstances, but one is clearly offering something in exchange for your money.

Busking is not the same as begging.

I kind of feel like Perlman has moved out of B-movie territory. I mean, he headlined a successful TV show and he's had a ton of voice work on major projects. Sure, he's still a bit campy when he gets a good bit part, but he's no Bruce Campbell.
