  1. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHH how I feel watching the latest episode
  2. Did this episode really open with The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald? I'm halfway through but thats still my main (not really) takeaway because I’m dumb
  3. That is an interesting update. Would love to see them actually do something with this game/series
  4. So fucking good. There is so much happening in each episode and it doesn’t even feel rushed or truncated. Each moment gets the amount of time necessary. I really need to force everyone else I know to watch but most people don’t have AppleTV
  5. Smart TVs Firesticks Xbox and PlayStation all offer the Apple TV experience without an Apple device. And yeah, Apple TV has some great shows and is somehow never talked about. It is odd
  6. To jump off this some last night after liking decidedly non fascist bullshit while scrolling reals on instagram it gave me a reel of a self proclaimed “White Nationalist” defending Hitler. Which was an immediate report block and closing of the app. I had the algorithm fairly straightened out and hadn’t gotten any crap like that since Musk buying Twitter I think. I’m guessing with the changing of the regime in the US some of these corps are going to be pushing this rhetoric harder than they were previously. This feels a tad off topic of how the rest the posts have been but feels on brand if I only look at the thread title. I think everything is on track to get worse
  7. The soulsborne elements are limited to dropping your currency and the bonfire type of respawn that’ll respawn enemies. But it bears mentioning that you can have multiple viscera bags dropped to collect and you only ever drop half the total I believe. I actually gifted the game to my nephew around Christmas and joked that I was guilting him into playing it so I had someone to chat with about it. He did actually really enjoy it though. I really like the damn game and the music.
  8. Yeah tickets here were pretty expensive as well. Had to go to a resale website because Ticketmaster sucks so hard and had nothing available
  9. I was probably drunk when I posted that but I stand by it.
  10. I have now acquired tickets to Nine Inch Nails in August. So that’ll be a time
  11. Honestly years of being spoiled with whole season releases for binging has left me pretty satisfied with Apple doing weekly episodes. It’s something to look forward to and adds a small touch of structure to week, as opposed to rotting a whole day/afternoon/evening/weekend away watching an entire series. Plus, unlike the old days there’s no FOMO on weekly episodes. I fell out of watching Lost on TV because it’s timeslot moved to share with something my mom watched so that was the end of Lost for me to be able to watch. Streaming removes that, at worst catching up is delayed. Anywho, Severance has already well surpassed Breaking Bad for me. I was never that enamored with that show though. Never even finished the final season actually. There’s episodes of Futurama I’d put higher.
  12. Yeah it’s not swell, and there’s a staggering amount of defense for it. Banning Nazis is somehow controversial in the US
  13. Even worse! I have no idea why I wrote 2048 because I was watching the original. Just half paying attention and went “yeah that’s the title that makes sense” 🤦‍♂️
  14. Over the past weekend binged the hell through the Alien franchise. Alien-Great Aliens-Great Alien 3-Good (fight me) Alien Resurrection-GARBAGE (where’s the sicko on here that places it above 3? We need to schedule a fight!) Prometheus-(Skipped this time since it’s recently watched but it’s)good Alien Covenant-Bleeeeh. Alien Romulus-Not terrible nearly good, until that scene that is inexplicably dumb and awful and you know the one and if you defend it….wow. New Years was recent US Godzilla vs/X Kong movies with the fam. Fine but definitely kept thinking I could just watch Pacific Rim. Exactly this moment, Blade Runner 2048- in progress.
  15. My yank ass has to wait until January 3rd to watch Vengeance Most Foul…. Anywho, watched what I believe was the finale to season 2 of Shrinking. Season 2 had more zany one liners and situations but they still pulled out the serious moments pretty well. Apple ended it with a fade to black but the black was a “if you or someone needs help” message and a link to an Apple webpage. Apples page then breaks it down into categories with links to the appropriate organizations. It’s not much but it’s still nice to see the resources being put out there.
  16. I…..was just making a joke. But! It is interesting to know the naming convention really is basically a coin flip. And good gravy Freezer Thunder and Fire would’ve been boring ass named.
  17. Maybe that’s just a translation error?
  18. Still grinding through Apple shows. Slow Horses is pretty good. Silo season 2 has been good so far. Shrinking season 2 is a great watch. Eagerly waiting on Severance season 2 now. And yes, that’s a ton of shows that start with S
  19. I’ve bought so much. The very most recently though A Third copy of Disco Elysium. I love that game and it’s $10 on Steam so go gets it people. Also on Steam Immortals of Aveum. Saw it mentioned in a YouTube video as under appreciated a few days ago and I checked out the demo and enjoyed it a fair amount. Sucks it’s EA attached, but there is a fun competent new IP shooter in it. Plus the sale has it down to $15. I just remembered this is a website that for most people their sales are different and their prices are extremely different. Anywho also got stuff to get my neglected PC running again and then got more stuff to upgrade it to be 2022 relevant ish. (SSD to bring to life and then 5700X3D and 7900 GRE for funsies)
  20. Of small note, teeny tiny note, appointments (for real positions and not Elons shit) do require confirmation by congress. Its highly unlikely those fucks have the backbone to say no to the impending potus and his obviously wildly poor unqualified choices.
  21. This weekend is the first time I’ve had the house to myself for more than a few hours over the past year. It’s been so relaxing not dealing with my roommate making me anxious the whole time. I decided to go out and pick up a steak and broccoli to cook up tonight and just enjoy while watching the Red Wings get their asses kicked by the Rangers. But for now, time to go out and assault the leaves all over my lawn. It’s a good weekend.
  22. I rewatched the first 6 episodes and finished out the season. I’m now pissed I have to wait until January for more! On the other hand I binged through Silo and enjoyed it well enough and season 2 drops/begins in just over a week.
  23. Feels a bit relevant. Thanks for the wisdom Spider.
  24. And attempted a coup once already Misogyny is underselling it though. There’s also far too many that outright agree with the shitshow, or still others (though fewer) that didn’t like the handling of Palestine or Ukraine and decided to throw away their voice on not voting or a 3rd party. I’ve heard a trans woman whine about that and insinuate not wanting to vote Dem because of the handling of Palestine. Like okay sure, life will definitely get better for you thinking like that. ugh.
  25. I had a bad feeling going to bed. Fucking disgusted
