Yes, he hosted on Celebrity Apprentice.

“Do I really look like a guy with a plan?”

I’m the same age as Taylor and I see at least one of my peers attending her concerts every week on social media. Her reach right now is insane.

The American Dumbass himself

Love Rian Johnson, especially as a Breaking Bad fan.

Don’t believe everything MAGA breathes

Got a couple of couches, sleep on the love seat

I actually really liked Last Jedi on its own and consider it in the top half of my ranking of the franchise. I think Luke’s characterization could’ve been handled better (and the whole Canto Bight subplot could’ve been cut wholesale) but looking at myself at 23 (how old Luke was in RotJ) and my experiences since, I found the lapse of judgement and faded optimism quite relatable. Adam Driver is one of my favorite actors and his portrayal of an abusive yet charismatic antagonist turned love interest was spot-on. There’s also the comparisons you could make between the First Order and the rise of fascism in America today. That one’s a bit of a stretch but it’s important to recognize World War II’s influence on the original trilogy and the Iraq War’s on the prequels.

That said, Rise of Skywalker is not only the worst Star Wars film- I consider it the worst film I’ve ever watched. It’s not a poorly-made film, the cinematography is great, but the plot is nonsensical. It redacts everything they set up in the Last Jedi, retroactively making that one worse than it is standalone. What seals it though is this will always be the ending of the saga- they can’t go back and fix it. I’ve probably seen worse movies, but the disappointment will never reach the level that this one gives me.

I immediately thought of Sgt Yates from the South Park episode where this exact scenario happened.

It’s hard to have any sympathy for people who have spent their lives making it abundantly clear they’d kill you if they had the chance.

He should have his medical license revoked as well

I’m not ok with it but I wasn’t paying attention enough to make sense of it until reading your comment. I feel like people would be more upset if they realized what is lost.

There was a guy a few years ago who spent $40k on Nintendo stock in order to ask about a new F-Zero in a shareholder meeting. They said no at the time but we did get F-Zero 99 last year so maybe he did make an impact.

Still waiting for the news that they took down old.reddit. Without the third party apps, that was the only way it could still be usable.

Another streaming service that started around the same time as Netflix’s. More focused on TV shows and now owned by Disney.

Bush got away with it, why wouldn’t they let Trump off the hook too?

Decades of retro game collecting experience leads me to agree :)

I’m about 6 years completely Amazon-free. A key component of the switch was realizing a lot of the random stuff I’d buy (mostly cycling equipment) is cheaper on eBay with faster shipping. The irony is that the seller is likely the same one on Amazon and the items would be delivered by Amazon Fulfillment Services.

I’m playing the original Phantasy Star via the SEGA Ages version on Switch. Very much enjoying the simplicity of an 8-bit RPG, but it’s amazing to see how much they were able to push the Sega Master System to its limits.

Also trudging through Dirge of Cerberus on PS2. It’s clunky and jank as hell but I love the atmosphere.

Just got my copy of the reprint for Switch 😋
