Unless McGregor's character is injured or needs his hands free to use a weapon, there's no way he'd be in the passenger seat to his wife in the 1980s.

Just based on the trailer, he is not the head of that household.

Mystery box!!!!!!



Could be good, though. Hopefully JJ Abrams isn’t too involved.

For real.

Programmable currency issued by the government will be dystopian.


Indeed. And they’ve been training us towards that with “tap” credit cards and things like Apple Pay.


Anyway…everything I’m seeing about this bill says it’s a ban on creating a CBDC until 2031 or something.

Based on the antennae, I’d say your moth was the female and the new arrival the male.

Obviously she wasn’t a good character and was frankly a dumb character in bad movies, but this poor girl got too much shite. Wasn’t her fault, other than taking the job. Haha.

It should be Rey rather than Rose.

Not exactly. It’s more “light-bringer,” and the name for the “morning star.”

She explains it’s how she found out that there was no Santa Claus.

I liked how they made fun of that scene themselves when they made “Gremlins 2.”
Ole girl seems to be just now realizing she’s dating a gay dude and also figured out that it hurts her feelings…

Anyways…onto a completely unrelated topic, when is that meteor arriving?
Denmark has always had some pretty tough immigration laws, I believe.

Maybe they realize their democratic socialist “utopia” would fall apart if there were untold immigrants there on the “tear,” but not contributing to it.
Aww…it’s so cute! Haha.

Nice work, Darth!
One of my favorite lines from the movie is when Allen is fighting the rock monster, and Rockwell’s suggestion is to:

quote:

A slightly heavy woman is a sign of fertility and had been until the 1920s


Definitely depends on the time and culture, but there’s a reason why men see the “hourglass figure” as attractive. The appropriate bust/shoulder to waist to hip ratio is the sign of fertility.

Being “slightly heavy” probably meant more along the lines of being “rich” and eating well, which meant overall better child survival at birth rather than necessarily a higher fecundity.
quote:

The team had set out to determine why, relative to our body size, the human penis is disproportionately thick and long compared to other great apes, when it’s primary function is to “transfer sperm.”


Human pair bonding is strengthened by sex…sex for pleasure…woman have no blatant outward signs of being in at the fertile stage of their cycle…

Behavior, mating systems, and selection have all driven this.

Next they are going to tell us about how human male testicle size is larger than it should be, relative to body size, for a mostly monogamous species…


But the obvious “truth” here is that size really doesn’t “matter” and other traits are more or as important, otherwise average would be larger and the “tails” of the curve would be shorter.
It’s funny because I think some of the original laws against first cousin marriage was because they wanted to break up family money.

It’s sort of wild that the Crazy Irishman from “Braveheart” is the same guy that couldn’t spell “citizen” in “The Departed,” and had those small parts in “Wanted” and “…The Deathly Hallows Part 1.”
