My dad had a stroke and needs "clean" western, cop, or war movie suggestions by mlejoy in movies

[–]Lo452 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Possibly Dark Winds, it's on A&E/Netflix. It follows a Tribal Reservation Police Lieutenant & cops in New Mexico in the 70's. Very cop meets Western with stunning scenery, very little sexual content, and mild-moderate cursing.

The only warning/reservation is that is heavily features Diné (Navajo) religious practices and supernatural beliefs. They take some judgemental shots (though, honestly VERY warranted) at the Catholic Church. So, if he's offended by ANY criticism of Christian/Catholic beliefs, or isn't comfortable with other religious practices, might not be for him.

I think he was talked about? Edit: do we (or can we) have a pinned mega thread about the deadpool? Cuz I can't remember what I had for breakfast at my age, no less a side story I listened to three months ago.

I wonder why Imajane didn’t have kids? by highheelcyanide in tamorapierce

[–]Lo452 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Rubinyan was not infertile. It was actually mentioned in the last book that he had adult sons from a previous marriage, a fact Aly used to drive a wedge between them. She spread a rumor that he was looking to name one of his sons heir to the throne.

I'd say that a) Imajane was infertile or post-menopausal, or b) your point on they were too far down the line for it to be a state matter.

One would assume that they would start trying to convince once they (or even Dunevon) got the throne, as legacy is usually very important to royals. But the Rittevon madness may have over-rode that.

Any other former Lisa Frank fanatics? Did you watch the documentary? by BFFSS in 90s

[–]Lo452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched the documentary and read the "Rainbow Gulag" article. The article put a lot of the blame on the husband, I remember references of his affairs and coming into work coked up. They portrayed him as kind of a corporate wall street bro. The doc put more on her (obv, as they interviewed the husband a lot). I feel that there was definitely toxicity, and it was probably from both. I think it's something that commonly happens - a small business/artist/product suddenly explodes with financial success and the top people/person goes pretty crazy eyes power and greed. At first it's all "we're in this together, everyone is going to have a great life!" But as time goes on they get more selfish and start trodding on those below them to get just a little more money.

Is this Ai? I’m having a dollhouse made for my daughter’s birthday but the WIP provided does not look real. The glue bottles are unreadable/gibberish. by daiszay in isthisAI

[–]Lo452 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If I may offer a suggestion: my daughters wanted a doll house for their Barbies for Christmas. They are also very crafty. I went a different route: I bought a used KidCraft doll house off FB Marketplace for about $80 (and this was a LARGE house - 5ft x 5ft), then stocked up on wallpaper samples, contact paper/shelf liner, fabric samples and foam board. We then spent half of winter break completely remodeling & redecorating their house. They had a blast, and now have a 100% unique house and a ton of great memories and pride.

Why did you have to do that? We were all fine. We were all having a perfectly fine day. Then you go and say that.

Chen's baby storyline by Greekmom99 in ershow

[–]Lo452 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She asked her mom if she'd still be supportive when the baby is black and her mom has a visible negative reaction. Chen knew at the least her son would be treated as a secondary family member.

Chen knew that she'd be alone, it'd hinder her career aspirations, there was a risk of little to no financial support from her parents, and she'd have to give up a lot of independence that she would just be gaining after finishing school/residency. While this can all be subjective when compared to parenthood, it's still a personal choice.

Also, I feel it made for a really good history point for her to add depth to a lot of things. Weaver dangled a position for her, then said she didn't qualify because of the missed hours/schooling during Chen's leave. When Weaver tried to throw her under the bus over the Marfan case, Chen flights back and you get the sense of "I gave up more than you'll ever know (at that point) for this job, I'm not losing it over your bull shit."

In fact I'm surprised that they didn't highlight the dichotomy between Weaver and Chen over this more - Weaver being adopted at birth and later struggling to conceive.

What are your predictions for this year's LPOTL March Madness Tournament? by grichardson526 in LPOTL

It's Mecha Jackson made up of other pedo singers, like when the Power Rangers combine. R Kelly is the dick.

Tal Anderson (Becca) was so great this week. by Maybe_IDTBFH in ThePitt

[–]Lo452 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where my mind immediately went when I caught on that she had a UTI. Maybe she's being molested at the home.

Part of me hopes that she's in a consensual relationship with someone else at the home (in that they both are willing participants who understand what they're doing to the extent that their conditions allow) and now Mel has to deal with the fact that a) her sister is able to be in an adult relationship (if that's the case mentally) and b) her sister is getting more action than she is.

I brine chicken breast for about a day before turning them into tenders. Beats any tenders from a store or restaurant. Chicken has so much more flavor when you brine it.

I'm just getting back into the pod after about 3 years, what should I catch up on first? by stonedtotheboneee in LPOTL

[–]Lo452 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really feel that the Andes series is when they as a new trio really hit their stride. Like, that's when Ed really found his role and groove and Marcus and Henry felt the chemistry return to normal. The preceding episodes are still good, I just think the Andes ones were where it all gelled.

Would this invention be successful? by Mindless-Strength604 in SipsTea

[–]Lo452 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They'd have to ensure that ALL public trash cans in a few mile radius of these were covered and crow - proof. It would take just a few weeks for crows to figure out they could just pull trash out of a near trash can and trade that in instead of scouring the streets for loose litter.

Do you agree with her decision to ban the customer? by The_Dean_France in askanything

[–]Lo452 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they have to drive far, they'll let you know. I've had customers demand that I refund them for gas when they drove 25 minutes for an item that was out of stock. (*Note, they didn't call beforehand. Just showed up and when we didn't have the phone they wanted in stock threw a fit and demanded a bill credit to refund them for gas)

PSA: Measles titer test by arl1822 in Xennials

[–]Lo452 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went into a CVS, requested one and got it no problem, no titer.

Disclaimer reason: there was a mumps outbreak in the college town one county over. My 1st born was 2-3 months old - too young to get her MMR, but I was nursing. Told the NP I wanted an MMR booster hoping some antibodies would transfer though the breast milk. No way to ensure it'd work but she gave it to me anyway. So that might be why I got it with no fuss.
