If he's letting it go that close I hope he's up for this being a weekly PT event.

Although, props to him for trying to catch and release, in SC it's illegal NOT to kill one that's been captured and that's some ole bullshit.

My mom wasn’t feeling well last night, thought she had heartburn. Her husband woke up to her barely breathing and unresponsive this morning. They think she had a heart attack but they’re running tons of tests. She’s still unresponsive though so that’s not a good sign. I was going to drive the 11 hours home but as I was driving past the airport I figured I’d check for a flight and got one. I couldn’t book online so I naturally had to pay extra and the person got my last name and birthday wrong. I’m glad I didn’t try to go through security first. I have to sit here for a few hours but I’ll get there about 3 hours sooner.

:sympathy: hope she's ok bro

Yesterday, Texas Governor Abbott issued an executive order to suspend all statues that would allow a private party to compel someone to get a COVID shot (notionally addressing the employers making vaccination a condition of employment).

Today his opponent called him out

One of my favorite scandi movies "Kraftidioten" which I think more or less is a difficult to translate word that refers to a person who embodies the concept that "idiots are too clever to stop from being idiots" had the most boring title translation to "In order of disappearance."

I fell like without the knowing the original title the really dry dark humor of the movie doesn't work as well.

You're right, I just don't see "labor shortage" as such a negatively-loaded term. What's turned out interesting is that in the current climate, the federal minimum wage and the big congressional fight (that amounted to nothing) turned out to be irrelevant. EVERYONE around here is offering $14-15/hour jobs in a $10 minimum wage state and they're having trouble finding takers because the work sucks.

I don't remember a similar situation in my lifetime, so it's a loving nice change.

so IATSE is definitely going on strike now right?

Also, please don't be too quick to judge Actor Alec Baldwin, it's unfair for an actor to get blamed for accidents like this caused by corner cutting and incompetence. Responsibility for that must be assigned correctly, flowing up the chain of responsibility to the ultimate financial decisionmaker on this set, Producer Alec Baldwin.

I wanted to say that but my friend keeps finding really cool stuff movies on it.

oh poo poo yeah the also ran streaming services occasionally do have a diamond in the rough, like one day years ago I was on IDK Crackle or some poo poo and stumbled across Enemies Of The People and it is the most absolute gutpunch of a film I have ever seen, makes Come And See look like an episode of Barney the Dinosaur.

so this dude Tet Sambath, his entire family got merc'd in the killing fields when he was 4 goes into the jungles of cambodia in the late 200x's and interviews khmer rouge peeps, they share their damage, and eventually gets in tight with Pol Pot's second in command and gets literally days of interviews on film with him before dropping a truth bomb and diming him out. The only comparison I have, the only film that is even remotely similar at least that I have seen is Herzog's Little Dieter Needs To Fly. Both are highly reccommended.
