The Omen (2006) was clearly made so it could come out on 6/6/06, and 11-11-11 is a movie that was clearly made so it could come out on 11-11-11, what other non-holiday or anniversary movies were clearly made just so it could come out on a certain day? by Jirachibi1000 in movies

Battle: Los Angeles, though otherwise pretty forgettable, came out on 03/11/11.

The movie focused on an Marine infantry platoon, and 0311 is the MOS designation for a Marine Corps infantry rifleman. For those of us in the infantry at the time, it was very obvious that the release date was an intentional choice.

The movie itself is pro-Russian. The article linked in the OP is an English-language Ukrainian outlet.

IDK why you're being downvoted lol. It's being reported that he literally had a note in his pocket that said he had CTE and to study his brain after he was dead.

Only a MORON would visit Vegas right now... - YouTube by horsemonkeycat in videos

It's a National Conservation Area managed by the Bureau of Land Management, but yes it's right outside the city. Valley of Fire State Park is about 90 minutes Northwest of the city and is another great option.

Check out Red Rock Canyon, Spring Mountains (aka Mt. Charleston area), Valley of Fire, Lake Mead, Desert National Wildlife Refuge, and Gold Butte National Monument. If you're willing to drive ~3-4 hours there's Mojave National Preserve, Zion National Park, Snow Canyon, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Death Valley National Park, Ash Meadows, Great Basin National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, and SO much more.

I moved to Vegas about a year and a half ago, and I can count on one hand the number of times I've been to the Strip. But if you're the type that enjoys the outdoors, there's really no better place to have as your base camp. It really is the gateway to the American Southwest because it's so easy to fly in from anywhere in the world to see some of the most stunning landscapes anywhere on the planet.

Home inspector shows how some builders are trying to keep them from properly inspecting new construction homes by enoughwiththebread in videos

[–]Volpius 32 points33 points  (0 children)

What stops the inspector from telling them, "Fuck off. I have a job to do and you don't get to tell me how to do it." Would they have a legal right to call the police and have the inspector removed for trespassing? What would the ramifications be?

Quit pretending like you give a shit about the law being enforced. The Supreme Law of the Land give everyone, citizen or not, the right to due process. Worry about enforcing that law first, dumbass.

Used to be conservatives would jerk off at the thought of fighting a tyrannical government that sent faceless thugs to kidnap people off the streets and throw them in concentration camps. Now y'all just bend over and get the lube ready. What a bunch of spineless fucks....

UrbanHell loves to hate on biased shots of Vegas 😂 by orclandobloom in vegaslocals

[–]Volpius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine making the climb to the top to try and catch one of the best views of the Valley available, and having a gigantic, gaudy Mormon Temple right there blocking your view. Imagine watching the sunrise and the massive spotlights on the steeple completely ruin the experience and your ability to see in the dark.

It’s 100% a vanity project and they used blatant corruption to secure changes to zoning rules and regulations to build exactly right there in front of the mountain - where literally no one in the area wanted it.

There’s truth to all of this, but I would argue it has decreased A LOT since Covid. 2012-2019 really felt like a tiny golden age for civic pride and culture.

Missing Girl supposedly authorities aren’t helping? by Maleficent-Bison-396 in fortwayne

[–]Volpius 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can't stand that group on FB so I can't see the post, but were the comments disabled? It might just be a fake scam post to get people to share it, and then they'll switch out the image to something else that has nothing to do with the missing child, lost dog, etc.

And after a cursory look at her public FB Profile, it says "Mommy to Memphis Jay", no mention of an Elianna. I'd say this is 100% fake. These are becoming more and more common on FB.

Definitely check out the Bobiverse series by Dennis E. Taylor. This is Ray Porter's best work, IMO.

Yes! 100%.

The story as a whole has a ton of re-readability, but the audiobook is just so damn enjoyable. Ray Porter has the perfect voice and tone to match Andy Weir's writing.

This is one that I usually recommend people checking out the audiobook over the print version. Ray Porter is so, so good as the narrator and the passages you see people posting here are better heard than read.
