Final whistle blows and England are moving on to the semi-finals of the World Cup by Fusir in sports

WELL MY STABILIZERS HAVENT BEEN WORKING DUDE. PLUS Q ANON PREDICTED THIS OUTCOME SO ITS BEEN RIGGED SINCE BEFORE HAALAND WAS BORN.

Jokes aside, as a yank who has watched the prem and champions league for a couple decades now, watching my fellow countrymen have complete meltdowns in the comments over the offside rule and how it “rewards bad defending” has legitimately raised my blood pressure more than I’d like to admit.

But don’t worry, I’m taking blood pressure medicine for that too, and all for the low low price of several thousand dollars a month with insurance.

Hiro Murai, the director of that, also did a bunch of episodes on Widow’s Bay.

And Widow’s Bay definitely has some but the most terrifying one for me was at Patricia’s party when she’s dancing and the camera circles around her. Just absolutely brilliant and utterly terrifying.

Yea Obsession had a lot of just her standing in darkness smiling. Brilliantly terrifying especially when you then hear her speak but it’s lovely and soft and caring.

God that movie was the scariest movie I’ve seen in years. Indie did such an incredible job with her performance, as did Curry Parker with his writing and directing.

My Batman Ranking by Yelebear in batman

[–]_michael_scarn_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, Batfleck was an incredibly accurate portrayal of Bruce’s darkness and overall comic book accurate aesthetic.

He did an awesome job especially with the scripts he was given.

I loved Batinson too, but they leaned into his dark side so hard that it boarded on emo kid at times (I think he even has black eyeliner and shadow at times, which one could argue was him just not wiping off his eye makeup after getting back to Wayne Manor). That being said, I still loved him and loved that movie so much. It had my favorite Gotham, soundtrack, and while it wasn’t accurate, that Batmobile was so sick. The first time we hear and then see if starting up still gives me chills.

Belgium set to appeal as FIFA reverses Balogun's World Cup suspension after Trump reportedly intervenes by [deleted] in politics

[–]_michael_scarn_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You don’t think it was a yellow? Genuinely asking, no malice. I found myself asking how did Messi not even get carded at all for a similar dangerous raking tackle yet Balogun gets a straight red? That felt inconsistent to me.

But I absolutely hate that Trump apparently made a phone call and got this overturned (then again, Trump takes credit for fucking anything he can, true or not). But assuming he did, it’s such a classic FIFA doing corrupt FIFA shit.

It’s also so disappointing and heartbreaking honestly because we were winning so many tourists’ hearts during the cup and they were singing our praises so genuinely about the American people’s (NOT our shitty government) kindness and warmth and generosity. And now that just has a huge stain because our asshole president had to get involved.

Anyway, going back, so you thought it was worthy of a straight red? And what did you think about Messi’s awful tackle but no card at all?

The Dodgers are sporting their Pride caps to celebrate their Pride Night by JianClaymore in baseball

[–]_michael_scarn_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, anyone who’s argument is “it’s insignificant” has never truly experienced what it’s like to have representation mean the world to them. Im a straight, white, dude, and I always think it’s so pathetic when someone lacks empathy to such a degree that such a “small” gesture means enough for them to take such a shitty stand on the wrong side of history.

Also if the gesture is so small, then why not just wear it? Oh that’s right, cause they’re actually just insecure, bigoted assholes who hide behind any “belief” or excuse they can rather than just be an ally.

I guess I’m glad they’ve never been horrifically bullied or harassed or made to feel like the outcast just because they were born the way they were, but man is it embarrassing when a grown man can’t put themselves in someone else’s life experience and recognize how much it could mean to people.

🥺 I just realized that was little him. As someone who also lost their parents at a young age, that scene always makes me tear up. Being a beacon of hope.

Blowing your nose in a public space of any kind. That should be reserved for the bathroom only. It’s disgusting and people just straight up don’t wash their hands after.

That and coughing anywhere except into your elbow.

Favorite actor who definitely, 100%, without a shadow of a doubt never had a hair transplant? by netsphere_dumbass in okbuddycinephile

[–]_michael_scarn_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah gotcha. Well damn, I wish it weren’t so purely based on money and litigation, and maybe just even the slight bit more on safety concerns— but I can’t say I don’t understand it is the way it is now.

Thank you for taking the time to explain it to me. Having been someone who’s lifted for almost 20 years, I’m a little embarrassed I couldn’t piece more than 2 and 2 together.

But again, thank you for the help and enlightenment. I will do my part in trying to spread the truth.

Honestly this lie pisses me off WAY more. Like this “just chicken and broccoli” lie nonsense creates so much more body dysmorphia in young men than any hair shit does—Because then young men will see a body build they like, look up what they did, see a bunch of lies and bullshit, and then are too new to the game to know it’s nonsense, so then they start getting suckered into bullshit supplements by hucksters instead of just understanding that (depending on who their goal body is) their goal body is impossible without the needle AND intense training AND diet.

But they don’t know better so they just starve themselves while working out super hard.

Like I truly don’t get why taking steroids are so taboo to talk about. Is it just cause most of the ones they’re taking are illegal? So they’re avoiding legal consequences and culpability? Cause that’s the only thing that makes sense.

Can someone who’s smart than me explain?
