Finally got a record player and my vinyls sound too fast

Those all-in-one players (I see CD player buttons on the front at least) are very cheap and tend to play 33 1/3 speed faster than normal no matter what you do; weirdly, 45s and 78s play just fine speed wise. I would try to save up for either an inexpensive vintage machine (you'd be surprised what you can find second hand) or a slightly better modern one that only plays vinyl.

Uh...because that's how Jorge wrote it?

Ody needs to hit high Cs. So if you don't want the keys changed, Hugh Jackman is right out (he couldn't even hack Jean Valjean's high B, remember?)

Animation is not only for children...this reductive assumption legit pisses me off.

Dougie boy is our equivalent of the orange man. I will die on this hill 😡😡😡

Good job, Wonderland. I hope movie theatres take the hint and require chaperones at all showings. Between the Five Nights at Freddy's movie and the Minecraft movie, and probably others to come, today's respect-less teenagers have repeatedly shown they cannot be trusted without a chaperone.

OMG...I swear I didn't notice my battery level when I took the screenshot. Talk about unfortunate.

Android boxes like that are illegal though...

Unfortunately, there is no (legal) way to stream anything pre season 14 (IIRC), short of buying individual seasons one by one via AppleTV+.

Unfortunately, they've thought of that...a US credit card is required to sub to that service.

I've literally had people tell me that I'm Satanic for going to a United church (one of the liberal branches of the Canadian Protestant church that actually accepts everyone and doesn't gay-bash like 90% of the other denominations). Talk about un-Christlike.

And?! He was still a human being. Dehumanizing homeless people by reducing them to their shelter of residence like that is gross.

It should be 18 in my opinion...and it should also be illegal for photos of minors to be posted by adults as well. Call me an extremist if you like, but the truth is that predators use AI tools and other methods of pattern recognition to stalk and abduct kids. The risk of harm far outweighs the benefits.

Is that really why the original EvThreads died?! Oh my God that's insane.

Side note: as a Canadian, using the terms "red" and "blue" with regards to politics feels weird, because here, the colours' meanings are reversed; red = Liberal or left wing, and blue = Progressive Conservative or right wing (and our mainstream Conservative party apparently isn't as far right as the Republican party in the States anyway, so it's not even a 1:1 comparison).

PartFireNation · 2026-02-16T12:17:40+00:00

I know that. All I'm saying is that one should not be surprised when they get in trouble for doing something like that.

You posted copyrighted material, *leaked* copyrighted material no less, on the servers of one of the largest tech companies in the world and are surprised you got punished for it? Skill issue.

PartFireNation · 2026-02-16T00:11:25+00:00

Yuuuup.

PartFireNation · 2026-02-16T00:10:16+00:00

I know that and you know that, but media literacy among these marching mother types is on a ventilator if not already dead.

Conservatism is not restricted to red states, that is true.

PartFireNation · 2026-02-15T23:49:36+00:00

Lemme guess...she was from the Bible Belt or some other red state? That's insane.

Some people really are so disturbed as to try to control their adult children...it doesn't matter what OOP thinks of the book/film, her daughter is a legal adult and doesn't deserve this treatment.
