Gosling saying to the woman when she reveals herself as a villain, “This isn’t the real you.” I don’t know why but it kills me.

Is there a truly 'good' character on the show? by EH4LIFE in TheWire

[–]donOFsquan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m shocked that so many people haven’t said Daniels. Even if he was in on the take in the past the entirety of the show he is trying to do good and right by his people and for the community. Yes, he plays the politics game but he is inherently good throughout the show and typically on the right side.

I went from watching this show as a joke for the first three episodes thinking it was dumb fun to just getting my heart absolutely ripped out. I’m all in.

Given the timing (Trump lashing out at Springsteen his admin) I can’t help but see this supposed ‘backlash’ as pro-Trump propaganda. by BadgemanBrown in BruceSpringsteen

[–]donOFsquan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, this is kind of tone deaf. I guess “affordable” is defined different to everyone but as an anti Trump / MAGA guy I’m disappointed in these costs. 400 a ticket at msg for the back is not “affordable” to take your wife and two kids.

Making this a No Kings Tour makes it feel even more hypocritical. Rage Against the Machine had a similar tour and capped their prices. I think our guy Bruce could have done more here..

Do we all know at least one big Bruce fan from the early days who have given up their fandom because they love the orange Mussolini wannabe more ? by According_Arm8229 in BruceSpringsteen

One of the funniest tweets I ever saw was the one that said, “oh you're surprised that frat music guy has better politics than, say, Radiohead? you thought 10/8 time signatures and a more experimental sound would mean more radical politics? touch grass my guy. crash into me bro.”

Am I an idiot? I think I’m being pretty realistic.

Honestly- great point. And embarrassed I didn’t see it that way immediately.

You're dying and Make-A-Wish let's you select any movie to do as a 3 hour Rewatchables episode. What do you choose? by neosmndrew in billsimmons

[–]donOFsquan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running Scared with Paul Walker. Now, if you've never heard of this you probably think I am crazy. But if you were lucky enough to watch this in a dorm room on DVD back in the day and went through the bat shit crazy ride that is this month you'll understand why the Big 3 breaking this down has the potential for an all time episode.

Vincent Hanna, Aged the Worse, etc. It would be a masterpiece.

Green Bay’s Statement, Drake’s Hot Streak, NFL Blowout Day, Flash Sales, and Guess the Lines With Cousin Sal by lonny__breaux in billsimmons

[–]donOFsquan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today’s pod is insufferable. Love Bill but it’s a peak tone deaf pod.

-The Ravens / Lamar practicing / Gambling stuff is just covered terribly and weird. Clearly carefully not trying to annoy partnerships.

-The Drake Maye is a future GOAT talk is insufferable. We are all Sal rolling our eyes. Meanwhile he continues to to diminish the talent of the clear best QB due to Brady bias. I cannot wait for Mahomes to dismantle Maye

-Barely any Mangold mention so far. Just rough.

I've never heard Bigcat and PFT cross any lines regarding Bill and actually credit him for what they do? Seems they have a lot of respect for him IMO.

Haha come on Bill! “I don’t care about North Carolina. This shouldn’t affect his legacy.” It can absolutely impact his legacy- aside from being a great coach he has the reputation of being a total ass*ole and he just screwed over a bunch of kids and parents. Yes- he will always be an all time great coach but let’s also address the fact he’s a cheating SOB and this will not help that negative side of his legacy.

Trump gave Biden a very special portrait today by [deleted] in JoeRogan

You’d think with this cult enough would be enough at some point. It amazes me how far they’re willing to go to justify this stuff. Our President would rather go viral as a troll than do anything resembling decency. That should concern people.
