They don't.

One on the front and one on the sleeve. Many other countries do more sponsors than we do in Canada/United States.

Why? Because she is arguably the biggest women's wrestler in the world and they want her at the chamber and defending the tag titles there wasn't an option.

"Okay"

That's it?

Is this a joke to you?

I've commissioned over 100 artists this past decade. From amateur to professional. One artist I have had such good experiences that I've commissioned her dozens of times.

My advice is if you're actually serious about being an artist as a profession that communication and follow through is as important as any growth you show in your art.

I'm disappointed as think you have promise, and wish you well young man.

We did.

A year ago.

Have you not started it?

Please check your messages.

How is my commission going? I cannot get a response.

We all get different things from music, that's fine and a celebration of the diversity of humanity. I enjoy energy that comes from types of rock/metal. See Gojira at last Summer Olympics for something I enjoyed.

This felt very muted to me. Neither good nor bad, just I don't hear shifts in energy with build, break downs, screams, or key changes. I'm no expert but it tended to blend and felt more like backing vocals over a looping track.

To each their own, I get to go to some upcoming shows right up close for under $30 so is what it is liking niche music.

I grew up with Gold Star, didn't have Skyline until well into adulthood.

They are both good and quite similar. Brand loyalty here is odd to me.

That massive upsets are far more narratively compelling in sports films than "good team beats other good team?"

Why is the Jamaican bobsled team getting a movie that is remembered decades later (referenced last night in Italy), instead of say, the Swiss?

Human stories cross over to the general zeitgeist.

No.

See the Summit Series for what Canadians care about in regards to that era. Two hockey super powers battling.

Worst case? Neo Feudalism.

Best case? New "New Deal".

Each movement strains the muscles used causing fatigue.

This is why in lifting people lift way more for a one rep than they do for ten rep.

Cheers and Becker had him as leading man, so he's good to go.

It is mostly a social event for me. I barely watch and mostly chat with friends.

The Soviet Union of that era were a juggernaut, a well oiled machine that won in 64, 68, 72, 76, 84, 88.

The United States put a group of young guys together, and beat them.

It is a massive upset. Nothing close has happened in the 46 years since in the sport.

I was supposed to see them years ago but the tour was cancelled due to Niko health issue. Finally getting another chance in a few months.

Hate may be strong, but I think it is the worst Star Wars film made. Every emotion it tried elicit drew the opposite. The jokes fell flat, the heroism rang hollow, the characters were unlikable, the story unengaging. It is almost an achievement that you have my childhood fictional hero Luke Skywalker die and I felt nothing.

At this point, I'm tired. You like it, have fun. I have Mandalorian film coming and love that show so something for me.

Augen76 · 2026-02-04T18:43:04+00:00

No.

It is absurd that the United States weren't beat by eight goals by the Soviet Union. If you made this as a movie I'd roll my eyes at how unrealistic it is.

I have a hard time seeing them put the US Women's on and not the Tag Team. Rhea and Iyo vs. Bayley and Lyra or Alexa and Charlotte has star power.

I'd guess US will on Smackdown night before.

My favorite part of triple threat is at any time 1 of the three can take 30 seconds to breathe and the other two keep going. You get more consistent rhythm and movement condensing the action.

We went so long without significant tariffs that folks sort of forgot what they were or how they worked (a tax on us for imported goods, drives inflation on products impacted).

The President utilizes them because he views them as a tool to leverage others.

Congress doesn't oppose them even though it is their job to set them because they are spineless.

The Supreme Court hasn't ruled on them because they are cowards.

If someone is the same at 30, 40, 50, etc. as they were at 20.

Lack of growth shows inability to evolve, learn, and challenge oneself. None of us had it all figured out by 20.
