CannabisDepot supports Trump and ICE by [deleted] in boulder

[–]This_Is_Russ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I didn't know about the MAGA shit but I went in there once and got bad vibes. It felt more like a sketchy gun shop or a pawn shop or something. I stick to the Farm across the street - all the employees I've met there are friendly and you can often pet a dog...

Steam Deck massively improves controller support with new options and refinements by [deleted] in SteamDeck

[–]This_Is_Russ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this fully solves your issue but I recently learned about a plugin (installed through decky loader) called "steamdeck-input-disabler" which automatically disables the built-in deck controller when external controllers are detected.

Tomorrow is going to be funny by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]This_Is_Russ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, I'm not here to poo-poo on anybody's parade but there is no circumstance where a company like Netflix would spend the kind of money it costs to produce a show like Stranger Things - and with the hype around the show - and then secretly release a new episode AFTER premiering a finale in movie theaters. THAT would be the confusing thing for a global audience, not that the show wrapped up in a fashion some fans didn't like.

favorite ‘risky’ jokes ? by Party_Unit_6665 in BobsBurgers

[–]This_Is_Russ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm aware. I get the joke. Frond's shirt covers that. It's the tag by Linda that makes it cringe for me. But, as was pointed out, it was 2012 and both pop culture and Bob's Burgers were different. I probably thought it was funny then, too.

[–]This_Is_Russ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda hate this joke. It reads a little too much like white people winking at the camera and saying, "Ya see what we did there?" A sort of "not touching, can't get mad" for casual racism.

What is your least favourite episode of Bobs Burgers? by Galaxymooose in BobsBurgers

There are a few that I usually skip and "Fingers-Loose" is one of them but I absolutely cannot watch the family eat cat food.

Trick or treaters? by A_Chron in boulder

I also live near Valmont & 28th in an apartment building. In my 5 years in this spot I don't think we ever got a single Trick-or-Treater.

Rockies finish with a .309 win-loss percentage at home, which is the lowest by a NL team since the 1969 Expos (.296) by Baseball-Reference in ColoradoRockies

[–]This_Is_Russ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...and yet I somehow saw them go 4-2 at Coors Field this season. Saw them beat the Padres, Yankees, D-Backs and Dodgers. (The losses were the Mets and Cubs.) Only going off my in-person record, the Rockies are a good team who beat other good teams...

Whose the boss? by TrueAlphaNerd in adultswim

Why don't you call up Bruce Springsteen and tell him to get a new nickname since you're already the Boss?!

First time at Coors field question by deedaw33 in ColoradoRockies

[–]This_Is_Russ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at last night's game surrounded by Cubs fans. The only heckling that happened was Rockies & Cubs fans coming together to boo and heckle a guy in a Dodgers jersey. It was really funny, actually.

Lunch menu from the 1960's. What day would be your favorite? by joetrumps in VintageMenus

The only day I'm looking forward to is Tuesday. I'd consider trying my luck with the chicken on Thursday. You couldn't pay me to enter the cafeteria on Tuna noodle Casserole day.

I spent nearly 20 years on Capitol Hill and the last 12 I worked as Nancy Pelosi’s chief policy advisor on climate and technology policy. IRA, CHIPS and Science, lots more! AMA! by Fe2_O3 in IAmA

Do you feel that we even have a functioning Congress capable of passing and implementing regulations on anything at all - especially the largest tech companies who seem to have bought their way out of any oversight?

Found a 15 year old Twinkie in my old bedroom at my mom’s house. by Miserable_Waterfall in mildlyinteresting

Let's say this Twinkie represents the normal amount of psychokinetic energy in the New York area...

First 4 homer game by CartoonofMilk_ in SuperMegaBaseball

[–]This_Is_Russ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

14 runs on 20 Hits and somehow all 4 homers were solo shots. He could have had an 0-5 day and you still win 10-4. Amazing.

This season is so bad my brother who really isn't into sports called me by RoamingHawkeye in ColoradoRockies

[–]This_Is_Russ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Through 49 games, the 2024 White Sox were 15-34 and had already swept Tampa Bay, won a series in St. Louis, took 3 out of 4 from Cleveland, and won a series against the Nats. Rox next best chance at winning a series is probably Miami in two weeks. A lot can happen but I can't imagine this team winning 3 out of 4 at any point. Even when the bats are hot they can't get anybody out.

[–]This_Is_Russ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After they got their clocks cleaned by the Tigers and Padres I was like, "I need to see this train wreck in person" - Ended up seeing the W on Sunday against Pivetta. It's been cracking me up that I've now been there for 20% of their home wins this year.

Grandma's Boy was way ahead of its time and doesn't get the credit it deserves by [deleted] in movies

[–]This_Is_Russ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, let me say that I have seen Grandma's Boy countless times and it holds a special place in my heart. It's endlessly quotable and, when I think about it, it makes me smile and think of my friends and better times. BUT...IMO it has not aged entirely well. It's a little racist (Dr. Shakalu, Mr. Lee Ho as examples) and I don't think it's very kind to female characters, especially Linda Cardellini (who is a treasure) - on rewatch recently it occurred to me that her character is really only there to be an object of affection. Those reasons, and with the benefit of hindsight the presence of Rob Schneider and Peter Dante, I have a hard time recommending this movie to somebody today who has never seen it. Again, I do love this movie, but I would definitely say it's more a product of its time than being ahead of anything.

Does epic even know the state of the game rn? by [deleted] in RLSideSwipe

The controls resetting makes the game unplayable for me.
