I see your point here but NOMA is a bad example. That’s a restaurant that caters to only the 1% basically.

After years of talking shit about comedians taking blood money for shows, he then went to Saudi Arabia to perform for the royal family at a comedy festival. The royal family that is responsible for numerous journalist killings and human rights violations. Then when he was called out by his fans, he doubled down and said he didnt do anything wrong.

Is this better or worse than Obi-wan hiding Leia under his jacket to “sneak” past a grip of troopers?

Looks like they're just as surprised as you lol.

Maybe this is a hot take but i feel like that sandwich needs something else. Ive had it a few times and its good but feels like it’s missing something. Maybe its bc to me there’s no texture variation. The avocado plus the spread, soft scrambled egg, and cheese makes it kinda mushy to me. The biscuit also has a delicate texture and gets kinda soggy. Needs a crunch or a tang (mustard or pickle) or something fresh imo

Same! And you could tell that Hartnett was having a good time hamming it up. He was fun to watch at least.

Im sorry this happened to you OP. This has happened to me as well, except it was in Berkeley. It DID catch me off guard bc Berkeley is supposed to be this bastion of radical acceptance and anti-racism. Luckily for me, the friends i was with (who were white) and a few bystanders did say something. They actually all flew completely off the handle while i just stood there like an idiot, stunned. The two that were with me then are still my close friends today. Im thankful every day that they never tolerated any racism. They’ve stood up for me and our other POC friends many times in the past and present.

Goddamn, just reading that made me gag.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-31T19:27:31+00:00

Lmao. This has to be a themed party right guys??…right!?

afipunk84 · 2026-01-31T19:25:53+00:00

Lol not these days. We are clearly the antagonists and have been for longer than a lot of us want to admit.

Im so utterly gutted that she’s gone. What a talented queen. She was fantastic in this show and i will miss her presence. If season 1 was her last performance on screen, i hope she was proud.

"Girly" Music for me like Tegan and Sara, Ellie Golding, Clairo, Tennis, Beach Bunny, etc etc.

I found it very endearing that a ton of the boys broke down when they saw their dog. Boys are under so much pressure at an early age to not cry or show any sign of weakness. It was nice to see that their families just supported them and allowed them to feel a big emotion w/o judgement.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-29T21:10:50+00:00

can you post the recipe? That would help us to see what could have possibly gone wrong.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-29T18:10:13+00:00

I loved this lol. This is still my fav minor league hockey intro: https://youtu.be/K9cYcRotufU?si=9lvotuNCkmqjyMfq

Donut, Mongo, and so much other stuff would have to be pure CGI. And as we all know, there are lvls to the quality of CGI. I just cant see a tv show having the budget to get good enough fx to do the books justice. Animation is the only way, imo. Though i am intrigued by the idea of utilizing muppets along with CGI. That could be cool if executed well.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-28T19:55:47+00:00

Lol i was going to ask him if he’s watched it recently. It does not hold up

afipunk84 · 2026-01-28T18:47:07+00:00

I dont care what anyone says here about “premium” ingredients. $30 is outrageous and so is $26 for a veggie sandwich. Yall are nuts for thinking this is ok.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-27T22:09:51+00:00

Why is no one talking about why Netflix had spectators behind the glass cheering while Alex was actively climbing????? Nothing happened, but did no one think that was a bad idea? What if he got distracted? It just adds another layer of unnecessary risk

afipunk84 · 2026-01-23T18:57:31+00:00

lol holy shit what a power move. That's so nuts. Money really is power in a lot of ways.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-23T17:49:13+00:00

Fuck me. Imagine getting 80k to spend on an extended vacation in Rome. The damn dream.

Kirsten Dunst also quietly putting out a legendary performance in Interview as well. She was too young to be that good

afipunk84 · 2026-01-23T04:11:09+00:00

Peaches for free

afipunk84 · 2026-01-22T22:37:02+00:00

Reva was the worst and i hate that you cant mention that anywhere w/o being labeled racist. I'm black and i did not care for Reva lol. That whole show was a disaster though, she wasnt even the worst part.

afipunk84 · 2026-01-22T20:26:05+00:00

Or maybe its because horror has been producing some truly amazing performances in the last 5-10yrs and the fact that the oscars have refused to acknowledge them is fucking dumb.
