I was ok with the first Chris Pratt one. Not great, not awful.

What I really wish they had done was set the next one a couple years down the line. Maybe a couple of those military helicopters that are stealing the dinosaurs at the end crashes in mainland South/Central America. Imagine a Jurassic Park movie that's a cross between Alien/Predator/Planet of the Apes. Really lean into the highly intelligent apex predator and horror angle.

The problem with these movies, is they keep letting the cat out of the bag, over and over and over. Cat's out. What's next?

Nah, it's dumber than that. They don't want suffering to lose money, they want all the suffering and misery in the world to be incredibly profitable.

And much, much, much more expensive.

Just want to drop this here.

Birth control is great.

Some methods of birth control are bad for you specifically. Not all birth control is equal. You are a complex piece of equipment. Birth control alters the way that equipment works. There are side effects, no matter what, and they are listed because the were well documented in clinical trials.

That does not mean you should not use birth control. It means you should work with your doctor to find the one that works best for you.

My wife tried a birth control medication that had an interaction with another medication and made her very drousy. My sister took one that made her feel suicidal. They shopped around and found something that worked.

There are very few people who are a "catch" in the traditional sense. You have to be hot, with no faults, flaws, or baggage. High bar.

We are all depressed, stressed, anxious, self-absorbed people, in our own ways and to our own degrees. Admitting and understanding your shortcomings is hard. Having someone in your life that you can say those things about is a godsend. In the real world, the only requirement for being a catch is that you work your ass off so that your partner can say the same.

Also, this woman is having a baby shower. She's probably 7-8 months pregnant. Having been through that a few times, she's probably a hormonal, emotional wreck under the best of circumstances, but her husband is in a concentration camp, and thanks to the Supreme Court, he can be deported to Sudan with no repurcussions.

I cannot imagine how hard it is to be as kind, loving, and gracious as she is, but to be surrounded by a world with so much willful anger, hate, and misery.

Amazing! A week ago they were all saying how awful NYC is. Now it's great. What an incredible transformation.

The real truth is that most are just actually just anti-sex. "Be fruitful and multiply," applies to them, maybe to their wife, but definitely not to their daughter.

Screw blue. If everyone votes blue, no matter who, we still live in a fascist, capitalist country going down the drain because politicians would rather cash checks from their corporate masters than do what's right. We need actual reform.

Since it has to rhyme, vote progressive, not regressive?

As much as I dislike Steve Jobs personally, Apple needs someone at the helm who is product and customer experience oriented like he was. Obviously, technical know-how is good, but someone exclusively technical would flounder. Tim Cook is a supply chain guy. His replacement would almost certainly be someone marketing oriented, since innovation no longer drives Apple. Sales do.

Journalism in the US is dead. Being shocked or angry at anything the news does or doesn't say at this point is in "fools me twice, shame on me" territory.

You'd be better off asking Days of Our Lives to weigh in.
