I have to agree, I hated Avatar 2 (liked the first one) and the theater experience made it 100 times worse. I went with an old friend that I havent seen in years, and a young guy in line behind us kept asking us if we were gay… like literally 20 times, he was completely obsessed with it to the point of harassment. I will NEVER go to a theater again, ever.
To be honest restaurants became so expensive so long ago that we just stopped going to them. I cant even remember when that was, but it was more than 5 years ago for sure. And things sound like theyve gotten a lot worse since then so I cant see us ever going back.
Not only is home installation expensive AF but solar panels themselves on a house continue to look ugly AF. Uptake is going to remain slow amid these 2 factors.
Yeah. People hate hearing that it’s ugly. But it’s ugly
Very ugly, and worse than that they can only be used on a house that is not surrounded by trees. I found out that the hard way too, the solar company said they can put them up, but with all the old trees around my house I would likely only see 50% of the power of an install where there are no trees. So I was like ya no.
A year away from Election Day 2024, former President Donald Trump is set to testify in a civil fraud trial and separately faces more than 90 criminal charges, setting up the possibility that a convicted felon tops the Republican ticket next November....
Its a lot easier to be wrong when you cant factor in things like cheating… you might want to take note that trump has been indicted for cheating in 2016 by Bragg, thats not something polls could have known or could have factored in. And the hush money case is just one we know about, I assume he and the repug cheated on all sorts of levels to get trump in, again none of those factors can be predicted accurately.
AND being WRONG about something is not the same as ‘The Polsters were Lying in 2016’ which is what the far right constantly asserts without proof. Polls are not lies just because they got one wrong once time, this is the main problem with all right wing thought, they cannot tell the difference between MSNBC getting something wrong once 12 years ago, and the proven in court fact that FAUX 'News" Lying right to their faces on a nightly basis.
Who is buying anything at this point, I mean seriously? The only thing my wife and I buy now is food, and we hunt, literally hunt for the lowest possible prices on any item before we buy anything. These people who spend 1000 dollars on a concert or 500 dollars for running shoes actually blow my mind.
Watching shoe company gouge CHILDREN by marketing and selling them running shoes for 500 dollars kinda turned me off from ever wanting to give those companies money ever again.
I love banks, they watched housing prices go up by a factor of ten and did not one goddamned thing, then bread goes up by 50 cents… CRANK THE RATES NAOW!!!
Sorry how does taking all of peoples money away from them help the economy exactly? Great now I cant buy anything, and I cant even pay my bills. Great work Banks!!
Quite frankly I don’t mind those, because it only steals money from dumb rich people
Oh no I think you’ll find that most of the people that are targeted by this type of predatory marketing are not rich, some are, but most are just taking money away from other essentials to try and get that thing that the multi-million dollar marketing campaign told them they must have

The very fact that we cant throw these particular bank robbers in prison because they stole so much money that they are now too big to jail, is an indictment of our entire system
…Support for Trump, among other politicians. As shown by the video, Card liked tweets from high-profile conservative figures such as Donald Trump Jnr., Tucker Carlson, Dinesh D’Souza. He also engaged with publications from former house speakers Kevin McCarthy and Jim Jordan, as per the video.
Im apparently the only person on the face of mother earth who genuinely liked the first movie… I did, no really. But the second one literally had nothing of interest in it. It looked the same, sounded the same, had the same characters and all that, but the movie when nowhere for 3 hours. I dont think I can ever sit through it again.
And no character arcs for anyone. Well except for Quarich, he was literally the only reason to see the movie and even his character was boring as shit.
Former Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis has pleaded guilty in the Georgia election subversion case to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and will cooperate with Fulton County prosecutors.
All the news headlines and verdict said sexual abuse, which was kind of vague, but I just found out today that the judge clarified that this was a matter of legal definition and by the verdict of the trial and the case, trump has been found guilty of penetrative rape.
The very fact that she said she could not tell if he used a finger or his penis kinda proves shes not lying… if she was set out to make money off him by lying Im pretty sure part of that lie would be “yeah his penus was def inside me bro”
