    NEW: List some movies you've watched recently. Theatre, rental, TV... and give a */10

    Finally got around to watching The Marvels. Not a great movie by any stretch, likely one of the weakest Marvel movies, but also not nearly as bad as some of the reviews and box office take might lead you to believe.

    Yeah guys, there wouldn't be so many teachers sexually assaulting children of we were all more religious and trusted our kids with the priests, who would NEVER sexually assault children.

    A common verbal illustration: If you received $1 every second of every day it would take about 11.5 days to get a million. It would take about 31 years and 8 months to get a billion.

    What is with the 'boomer' misuse?

    My brother in law is 28 and went to EMT school recently after working several years as a ski patrol medic and paramedic. Most of the other kids in the EMT program were 5-8 years younger than him. They all called him Boomer.

    Barrel aged gin and peanut butter whiskey

    I've tried the whiskey. There's a drink my wife likes it in, root beer and vanilla vodka I think. I think it's gross, like completely undrinkable in any form.

    I finally, after all these years, watched The BFG. 6/10, tops. That makes it probably the best Roald Dahl movie in my opinion. I never read his books growing up, any of them, so I don't have any sentimental childhood memories attached at all. The original Willy Wonka is OK, maybe on par with...

    Thanks Biden! No More Noncompete Agreements

    IANAL but skipping the 562 pages of preamble and reading the 2 or so pages of actual regulation has prompted a question: does the FTC have oversight of public/municipal employers? If yes, then my state's ethics law on jumping ship from a regulatory body to a regulated entity looks to be gone...

    Perhaps a bit off topic for this thread but maybe not. I watched and enjoyed season 1 of Invincible. I haven't gotten around to season 2 yet. Apparently season 3 is being surreptitiously animated by North Korea through Chinese front companies. Link

    Trump NY indictment thread

    The thing with a bond is that it's essentially good so long as the conditions are met. Unless the holder of the bond physically gives it back or destroys it then it can still be called. My understanding is that if the AG's motion is successful then the judge will likely rule that the conditions...
