More people who need to get their dicks sucked so their energy isn't focused on hating the world.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

Interesting theory. Maybe that's my problem, I don't like having my dick sucked, therefore, I hate the world.

Not sure where to put this, so I'm putting it here.



Not great, but a fun watch.

That reminds us me, I still need to watch the F13 fan film that D and others have watched.

The callousness of the targeting of people at a place of worship makes it so much worse. Seems luxury hotels targeted too. At least there are arrests. But the bit I am finding quite worrying is that they may have had some intelligence about this but didn’t add precautions.

Regarding your last sentence, I've read similar things. People are getting numb to this shit because it's been happening sooooo often.

I think movies kind of numb us to the shit, too. Listen to how horrified Herbert Morrison was as he called the Hindenburg crash live on the radio. Instantly started bawling, you could hear through his voice that it fucked him up probably for life. Now we watch shit like that and go "damn, shitty. R.I.P. Looks like a scene out of a movie."






Even live coverage from some of the news anchors calling the 2nd plane hitting the South Tower on 9/11 was emotionless. "Hmm. Looks like a 2nd plane just went into the South Tower".

I have the Synapse Demons, pretty nice.
The Demons/Demons 2 steelbooks are both out of print. Something like only 3,000 were made. The other three are the icing on the cake, even though I already own all of them but Tenebrae. :p
5 minutes left, and I am still the highest bidder. I'm sure that means neither jack nor shit until like 20 seconds left, but still... kinda thrilling. I only ever placed a bid on ebay once, I think. And it was like 12 years ago or something. At least I think it was a bid.

I gotta have these steelboxes, dammit!

Won it! Whew! I took over the lead earlier in the day when the price was super low, then placed my max bid, which was still a pretty low ball max, considering the out-of-print status and the excellent condition they're in. People started bidding with a few minutes left and the total cost at the end went all the way up to my max bid. Only ended up paying 1.50 less than what my max bid was. lol. WOO! The asking price for all of these 5 movies individually and not in a bundle would've been more than double what I paid for the bundle. Essentially got a steal, but they weren't cheap. I thought for sure the end result would've been far more than double what I paid. 40 bucks a pop for five out of print blu rays, 4 of which are steelbooks is a pretty damn good haul, considering new movie releases on blu ray go for nearly 30 bucks in stores.

Stop spending money, dumbass.

WAIT... ALL five were steelbook. One of them has a slip cover over the steelbook with different art than what's on the steelbook and I thought it was a different blu ray release. This one was out of print, too. And has an upscaling to 4k. So I saved 300% of the worth in this bundle. NICE!

If people want to be numb that’s on their conscience I guess, but the actual authorities and government have to act on credible information and I’m guessing there will be consequences in Columbo over this. 290 people can’t have died due to bad governance.
