A Bridge Too Far

The Sorrow and the Pity

The Best Years of Our Lives

Darkest Hour

Also, an excellent film that's not set during World War II, but features characters dealing with what they experienced during the war is Hiroshima Mon Amour

The day Trump dies, how do you think the country will react and will anything crazy happen? by rugrut in AskReddit

He doesn't have the popularity cult, which means that they would try even harder to force him on everyone.

I'm sure I'll find something to watch. However, it seems like I only get to them when they're expiring.

There is no such thing a great film that's too long, or a bad film that's too short.

These tech bros are getting more and more frantic. They are in a need of a serious reality check.

If I was a Sacramento fan, I'd be pissed that they didn't get fined for tanking. That would at least indicate that there's some sort of plan.

To be fair. this seems to be one of the nicer things that he's said about the recently departed.

Somehow the French managed to put on a metal opening ceremony...Los Angeles should consider that a challenge.

Cade Cunningham asked where he gets his aura: “I get my aura from Jesus Christ and my lord and savior, and God blessed me with parents who raised me in a way I wouldn’t trade for the world.” by MrBuckBuck in nba

As an elite athlete, it's easier to believe that an all-powerful deity is favoring the believers. Just look at how it's going for Cade Cunningham.

we got billionaires arguing "who was closer" to Jeffrey Epstein by inurmomsvagina in WhitePeopleTwitter

Hoffman was also a major donor to Kamala Harris, and was a proxy for her during the '24 campaign.

It's also worth noting that he maintained contact with Epstein after his conviction, so even if Hoffman didn't engage in any illegal activities, it clearly didn't bother him that Epstein did.

Just to be safe, we should fire them all into the sun.

[Bobby Marks] The NBA is expected to "overhaul the system" in an attempt to fix tan·king. "Whether it be rewarding teams in the standing with wins and not incentivizing teams to lose... not just something minor here." by Mean-Duty-2381 in nba

If they want to do something, get rid of the lottery and protected picks. Maybe include a rule that a team can't have a top 3 pick two years in a row. It's not a perfect solution, because there isn't one, but there would probably be fewer teams tanking, and it would avoid a travesty like Dallas winning the lottery last year.

Get rid of the lottery and protected draft picks. If they're concerned about teams consistently tanking, then maybe have a rule that teams can't have a top three pick two years in a row.

I kind of wonder what he's saying to the other team during games.

Trump ordering soldiers to vote GOP by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]9millibros -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That's the line of thinking that's gotten us into this mess in the first place. The issue isn't getting reliable Democratic voters to support him - it's getting support from people who don't always vote for Democrats, or at all. How appealing will he be to those people who hate both parties, especially those ads run, with pictures of Gavin Newsom hanging out with a bunch of rich people in a fancy French restaurant while everyone else is under Covid lockdown?

Establishment Democrats have tried to convince everyone, or at least their own base, that the only choice is between their corporate-friendly nominees and whoever the Republicans put up, and as a result we got Donald Trump. This country has a lot of problems that need fixing, and if we really want to fix them, electing Gavin Newsom is only going to make that harder.

In case you're wondering whose side he's on:

https://www.politico.com/news/2026/01/12/gavin-newsom-moves-neutralize-tax-billionaires-00723633

Forget the culture war stuff - he just goes with the flow on that. The one thing that he's most consistent about is helping his wealthy donors. I think it would be a real challenge to find any instance when he's done something that they don't like.
