Inside Out is the movie to see if you want to feel a whole range of emotions. Spectre is the movie to see if you want to feel nothing at all.

People are pretty bummed on Spectre, I figured it would at least have some rad shots or explodey action to give it some points.

Is there at least a lot of spooky skeleton masks?

Spooky skeleton masks are only in the opening scene of the movie and no one essential to the action wears a mask, except for Bond at the beginning who takes it off before the action gets going :smith:

It has a few decent action scenes, but they're nothing exceptional, and there's certainly nothing as pretty as Skyfall.

Same, I want some info on his responses. The latest episode was about an illegal abortion clinic that was dirty and had poorly trained staff and performed 2nd and 3rd trimester abortions. Predictably, Mike tried to play as middle of the road as possible.

I was taking a behind the scenes tour of Penn's museum and their new labs, including one that specializes in human remains (generally archeological) and it was real dope until the scientist told us all about how exciting it was to help identify all the fetal remains from his garbage disposal. Like literally a garbage disposal in the sink.

Kinda killed the vibe.

The response I'm talking about is from Facebook.

quote:

A concerned listener recently gave me some tips on how to be less-biased by inserting some more of my own personal bias. I've included the audio so you can hear his entire suggestion (without any of my rampant bias getting in the way). Thank you, concerned listener. I will list out the lessons you've taught me and use them to better this program in the future...

[To hear the audio, click the picture of Kermit Gosnell below]


Concerned Listener Suggestion #1: "You can't just do a report on something that is intrinsically political" without being political.

Me: Don't cover anything that can in any way be perceived by anyone as "political." Got it!


Concerned Listener Suggestion #2: "You can't do things like you did, where, you have a woman suggest that this is not the exception to the rule."

Me: Makes sense. Next time I'll interject and harshly correct any perceived suggestions with my unfounded claims and own political bias.


Concerned Listener Suggestion #3: "But this woman with her claims 'this happens far too often...' No that's bullshit. You're being political right there."

Me: Right, same thing as before. Interject, correct, insert my own political bias.


Concerned Listener Suggestion #4: "Also you have your statement saying, 'oh this was not by anti but pro-abortion,' and that's you coming down on one side right there"

Me: Actually, it's a line read directly from the grand jury report. But next time I'm make sure to immedieately call them morons after quoting them and, of course, insert some more of my own political bias.


Concerned Listener Suggestion #5: "...And number three, in a time when Planned Parenthoods are threatened to be shut down... and people are taking any example they can as proof that abortion is a satanic loving ritual, to put out an episode like this, despite the fact that it's true ...and then suggest that '(Oh) this is not the exception to the rule. It happens more than you think,' is completely irresponsible if you're trying to be unbiased or if, the impression that I get is that you're an anti-abortion person, that it's just the usual bullshit coming from your side of the fence."

Me: Ok, so first I gotta make sure I never talk about any topics during any time which one side may not like it. If I say anything negative against this anyone on this side of the argument then, obviously, I'm biased. I need to be more responsible with my reporting in the future and take into account the political struggles of both sides so I can time my own comments and reporting to weigh more strongly a bias on the opposite side. Timing is everything! ...also, maybe I should buy a fence.


Concerned Listener Suggestion #6: "You're clearly a moron."

Me: Point noted.

The episode definitely seemed very middle-of-the-road, but his responses to the (mostly valid) criticisms of the work are really gross. After reading his reactions and listening to the episode, I feel like it's very clearly he is VERY anti-abortion and only coveted this case because it puts abortion clinics in a disgusting light.

I haven't listened to the episode and I definitely won't; I've had more than enough exposure to that horrific story as it is. That said, his response there just sounds really immature and weird to me as an outside observer.

Eagles loving blew it up tonight. Offense actually played decently all game, even Bradford didn't throw any picks and I was loving squeezing my rear end tight enough to make a diamond waiting for it the whole time. Cowboys' season is loving done and buried and I feel kind of bad for Cassel but gently caress it for the first time in nine weeks this team has played up to its own talent and I'm going to get drunk and celebrate

If I hadn't seen those Greg Hardy photos for the first time today I'd probably have more sympathy for the franchise.

Also, I know a large part of it was because it's Veterans Day on Wednesday, but all the military stuff during the game was a little weird to see given the recent mini-scandal about paid patriotism at football games.

Yeah I specifically said Cassel because he's basically a longtime player who's never really stood out and pretty much at the end of his career and here he got a chance to helm a major franchise for three games and it would have been nice if he'd won one..... end of the day though I'm a dirty birds man so too bad so sad
