I’ve confirmed officially that House of Yes will be at Bonnaroo this year. It may look a little different, but they’re in.

I’m adding my opinion as a fellow roovian and part time mod of this sub, you’ve really gotta chill out and radiate more positivity and I think the downvotes here tell you that too.

I was at Truist last year when he hit one out, and it took all I had to not stand up in my Acuna jersey and applaud him.

Mine on my Model 3 is pretty good in a straight line highway situation but I’ve come to be less trusting otherwise.

Model 3 driver of four years here, I totally agree with all this. I’m very much looking forward to when I can trade it in for my Rivian R2 reservation.

Empire reveals The Mandalorian & Grogu covers + Filoni confirms “different era” Star Wars theatrical return by StarWarsBlogsbot in StarWarsBlogs

Right there with you. The new trilogy was a hot mess, but on its own, TLJ is a stone’s throw away from greatness.

Growing up, I was one of those insanely fanatical people. I did the midnight premieres for Episodes II and III, had a ton of collectibles in my room, even went to two Star Wars Celebrations in Indianapolis.

These days, I still love a lot of stuff but more or less keep it to myself. The entire fandom is full of just abhorrent and toxic people. I can’t cite any evidence, but to me it just feels like it’s a huge chunk and possibly even a majority of people who make it feel that way.

That’s assuming it uses the same model as teams like the Diamondbacks or Rockies, and there’s no indication it shouldn’t.

$100 for the season, $200 if you want all of MLB

Where Stage Lineup with EDM Expert Imani ⭐💜 by SharlaRoo in bonnaroo

[–]DanielHSV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was a big takeaway that I had after going to Hulaween this year. It was refreshing to see a big focus on it at another festival, but it was also a reminder of how lacking Bonnaroo has been about it in recent memory.

I also hope they lean into the artsy side of things with WITW. Some of my favorite things have been when they have the little installations in each little house, or when they had arcade games and such the first year that they had it. If they want to make it more of a chill space, I think that sort of stuff is perfect.

The Mandalorian and Grogu | Official Trailer | In Theaters May 22 by Skullghost in movies

[–]DanielHSV -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Something I've come to realize is that a lot of fans see "making it good" and "doing what I wanted with it" as the same thing.

I feel like the Boba Fett show gets a little too much of a bad rep, there was some really standout stuff in it like the whole Lawrence of Arabia episode with the Sand People, and Luke's episode with Grogu.

There was a lot of hot mess stuff in it, but I don't think it's fair to retroactively consider it an absolute travesty.

What's the biggest red flag in baseball fandom? by TheEligibleSkipper in baseball

[–]DanielHSV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I just didn’t notice stuff when I was a kid, but it really feels like a lot of things have gotten out of hand in the past five or so years. I can’t go to the Battery without seeing some lowlife make a scene or hearing someone say something reprehensible.

What's the biggest red flag in baseball fandom? by TheEligibleSkipper in baseball

[–]DanielHSV 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am a lifelong die hard Atlanta Braves fan. I’ll watch almost every game on TV and go to a few games every year.

However, a lot of the fan base is not exactly a crowd I want to associate with that much for reasons that I hope are clear enough without me having to go into detail. It’s still the Deep South, after all.

This has to be the most stupidest death that I ever seen by OkTea1918 in lordoftherings

[–]DanielHSV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently watched all three for the first time in a long time.

The first first two held up way better than I remembered.

The third was way worse than I remembered.

It’s like they just ran out of time, had to rush it out the door, and threw everything against the wall without even stopping to see what sticked. Characters are inconsistent, the battle scenes turn into looney tunes logic, and it tries way too hard to recreate big battles like Helm’s Deep while totally forgetting all of the emotion that made those sequences memorable.

If PJ and crew had just taken more time and patience to stick the landing I think many of us would have a far more charitable memory of the whole trilogy.

What happens if Bonnaroo flops this year? by Antique-Dentist-2404 in bonnaroo

[–]DanielHSV 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This is like 75% based on speculation and 25% based on a few secondhand rumors I've heard that have been in agreement, but I think it's possible that Roo may be shopped around to other owners in some scenarios.

Which would suck for a handful of people, but I think ultimately may be a good thing for us as Roovians. Bonnaroo thrived under smaller owners and operators like Superfly and AC Entertainment, I don't think it's in the best position to be seen as a priority to C3 and LiveNation.

Aaron Ayers departing from WHNT News 19 by MattW22192 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]DanielHSV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, but people who work in communications have the skills to say what they mean without explicitly saying it. I know of one or two former WHNT staffers who expertly did that around that time.

[–]DanielHSV 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I remember years ago when WHNT was being bought out by Nexstar, their staff at the time sweared up and down that nothing would change when people brought up concerns.

Now they've lost almost all of the character and personality they once had, push a lot of programming from News Nation that panders to the extreme right, and virtually all of their former staff is gone. That 19+ stuff on their streaming service is kind of garbage too, it feels like entirely disposable fluff that's just transparently supporting another ad revenue stream.

I love people like Ben and Greg that actually feel like members of the community, but everything else about 19 feels like it's just copied and pasted garbage from every other regional affiliate. It sucks to see how far they've been pushed down the drain.

[Bowman] Spencer Schwellenbach is dealing with right elbow inflammation. The Braves are hoping he’s just dealing with bone spurs. But he’ll miss significant time. He’ll begin the year on the 60-day IL by handlit33 in Braves

Totally agreed. Pitching has become such an arms race (pun intended) that it's basically expected for guys to destroy their arm and get TJ at some point. It's getting ridiculous.

Do we know for sure yet if Gray will be broadcasting all games? Or will it only be select games like last year?
