Picked it up Monday but im still making my way through Shelby Foote's civil war trilogy so it'll be awhile before i get to it.
Thank you for starting a thread to give those of us who are fatigued and over the football shite show :cheers:
Went to the game last night and at the very least they are more disciplined. Not many dumb turnovers and much better post play. We seem to have some size this year. Reed has been coming off the bench and had a knee brace on which tells me he’s still not quite 100% but he got going in the 2nd half last night and ended with 15. I think he’ll be our best player when 100%
The jury is still out on if we have the talent to match up with the rest of the sec. Almost all of our transfers are from small schools which makes me hesitant for now. We’ll learn a lot against Texas tech December 7th. But, as I said at the very least they look more organized and confident handling the ball and they absolutely dominated the glass last night.

I beat Zodiac a few years back. I enjoyed it and thought the battle system was great but the story was super weak, pretty much a Star Wars re-tread. Also, the overworld map was pretty boring. Nothing worse than miles and miles of desert

I get off work at 330am sometimes and I always throw it on to see what kind of weird shite they have on at that time. Sometimes it’s something cool like Herbie Hancock or Sigur Ros, but most the time its just some kinda soundscape lol

Because all you have to do it tell them you can’t sleep or have headaches to get a prescription. Plus it’s mostly decriminalized so people don’t give a shite about hiding it. It’s become almost as normal as smoking a cigarette

Not going to lie…I kinda agree with Drinker on this one
I feel like I just got out of a marvel movie that should have came out in the middle of summer rather than November. The Android chick is super annoying and the “cute alien” addition was eye rolling. It’s got some cool action scenes and I get the appeal for it but a Predator movie should take itself more seriously. Just my opinion.
Just as a side note: I went in without watching any trailers so wasn’t quite aware of the cgi fest I was getting myself into

Thought it was solid. I saw a lot of people comparing it to Nosferatu so that's what I went into it expecting but it's not nearly as dark as Nosferatu. It's more dark fantasy than gothic horror. It's definitely a Del toro film. Has that pans labyrinth feel to it. The last hour is definitely the best part when you get the story from the monsters perspective. Oscar Isaac crushes and that kid Jacob Alordi from euphoria plays the monster feel like he's a legit actor he's been great in everything I've seen him in. The first half I was kinda like “this is ok” but once I settled in and accepted it for what it was (haven’t seen any Del toro in a long time) it started to grow on me.
I will say the monster looked a bit to pretty/human, though

Watched it the other night. It's very sad that these warriors are so lost when they come home and cant live life. I find it interesting that the reason why alot of these men are able to have the mental fortitude to do what they do in war is because of the child hood trauma they went through in broken homes when they were younger. Then they stack the PTSD on top of of that after war is over and it just exacerbates their childhood trauma. Every single one that went thorough the psychedelic treatment said that they didnt have flash backs to anything they went through in war, it was all stuff they went through as children that they had to face to start to recover.

I read it at the beginning of the year after getting back from a trip to Spain and didn't care for it. Thought it was pretty slow and was a bit thrown off with the characters speaking as if they were in a 1500s Shakespeare play when it was only the 1930s. The ending was pretty good, though. It was the only Hemingway book ive ever read and i came away disappointed considering the hype. May still try some of his other stuff one day.

I've been reading Shelby Foote's Civil War: A Narrative trilogy. It's really good but you have to stay on top of it, there's so many names and places and in depth analysis of the politics, battles, and people that you'll be lost if you put it down for more than a couple days. About half way through the first book, its going to take a few months to finish the trilogy, its super long.

Yorgos is hit or miss. I LOVED Poor Things but didn’t care for Kinds of Kindness so we’ll see. He’s definitely different

Mavs are down AD, Kyrie, lively, and Exum. Good opportunity for the pels tonight. Would be cool to get on a streak before the West Bank lakers come to town next Friday

I cut and weed eat but I have a small yard. I did pay an embarassing amount to have my hedges, crape Myrtles, and mulch/weeds taken care of a couple months ago. It got out of control and I hate doing that shite
