Swell. Something else to worry about.

@George-K said in At the movies.: Dolby > IMAX? I looked at the venue where I saw Dune in the IMAX. I circled the seat I had. By comparison, the Dolby theater seems a bit smaller.

@LuFins-Dad said in More Dead Gazans: Genocide Joe. Fair point, this didn’t happen in Trump’s America.

I applied, but they said I lacked experience because I’m not online enough.

Thank you for your insite. 555

I posted in the "Podcast" thread about a recent podcast called "Agent of Betrayal" about Robert Hanssen, an FBI agent who passed secrets to USSR/Russia for many many years. Did it for money for sure. Actually just recently died while in prison in teh US "Supermax" prison on Colorado.

Imagine how we feel.

I can’t imagine the surgery to repair and subsequent amount of physio rehab this person will require. Am sure this qualifies as a life altering injury.

@jon-nyc said in On Islamic anti-semitism: He may well be the closest we have to a new Hitchens. Funny you should say that. I was thinking it as well. He’s just as insightful on these issues, but not as acerbic.

@jon-nyc said in Insurance - I'm an idiot.: They know people get complacent and most just suck up the price increase. Especially if they procrastinate paying the bill and don’t have time to shop around. That's exactly my situation. I was lazy... ETA - last year, when I called my Allstate agent, they said the increase in price is industry-wide. They lied.

HIPAA. Nuff said.

@Mik said in 2024 SOTU predictions: Already did. Saw it on the news tonight. Huge aid drop. Boots on the ground.

I have long said that the white people who have supported this kind of crap envision a kumbaya world where we all live in harmony. They've watched too much Star Trek and read far too little history. It's not about equality but advantage.
