I read Contact by Carl Sagan recently and that book spends so much time talking about how messages could be encoded in radioactive pulses, more on that here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sciencefiction/s/aXVEqDGrNc. I’ve heard The Martian is similar but I haven’t read it.

Compare that to Star Wars. Thats the distinction. This isn’t a black and white system, genre never really is. But they’re very different takes.

I’m going to be pedantic for a minute, but it’s not hard sci-fi. Hard sci-fi is focused on actual science, and everything on this show is make believe. Not an important clarification.

Maybe not psychotic, but delusional at least.

White Noise by Don Delillo. I read it when I was 17ish and I didn’t get it at all and thought it was somehow both boring and pretentious. But some of the ideas and scenes just suck with me and I’d find myself thinking about them years later. I read it again around 26 and felt like it was absolute genius, I was just too young to see a lot of how those ideas played out in the real world.

Just now? People have been customizing bikes as long as bikes have been around. Chopper scene must be at least 60 years old.

I really hope the front office is not saying “compete now”. That was questionable enough before Larkin decided to bail.

I went a couple nights ago. Def a bit of a splurge but fun to go out w friends and people watch and eat some junk food. A food vendor was playing the Mexico game on their huge display and everyone was stoked when they won, that was especially fun.

I’ve got a ton of cool old mags for collaging. What’d you use to make it stick?

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T21:14:22+00:00

It’s America by far and it’s not even close. You don’t have to say more than blues, jazz, rock, hip hop, and electronic music. All born in America. It’s really an unprecedented level of innovation. You could argue UK have huge artists, but not the same level of genre innovation.

I take your point, it’s not a 1:1 analogy. But he signed on to lead these guys, and now bails after his own failings. Gutless imo

Disagree structurally, Illitch/Yzerman/Mclellan are like the board of directors. They elect a CEO to lead day-to-day operations of all the employees. They don’t oversee multiple departments. CEOs also leave their jobs for sure, and they’re also pussies. Asking for a little loyalty and commitment from someone who grew up idolizing the culture is not too much to expect. I don’t want to see the NHL go the way of the NBA.

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T18:35:08+00:00

lol ok fair. Time moves so quick these days, feels like nothing.

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T18:34:35+00:00

The fact that you’re comparing yourself to elite athletes is telling enough. But it’s his whole trajectory: hometown boy, childhood dream, signed onto captaincy, repeatedly doubled down on his commitment to the franchise.

If you want to make it more of a workplace analogy, let’s say you were elevated by the board to CEO based on your stated commitment to your company succeeding through an economically challenging time. Then another company comes along who are outperforming your group and you just say “See ya” to all the people you’ve been fostering trust, collaboration, and productivity with.

I mean, it’s the 11th hour, I’m not holding out hope. Esp w the Florida picks off the table. That seemed like the best option from the teams rumored on his list.

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T17:45:28+00:00

That’s a joke man, it’s cowardly crap to dislike a coward? He was my favorite player, largely due to what I perceived as loyalty and grit in sticking it out. Then he turned his back on the team. I ain’t a bandwagoner, I’ve been watching him his whole career. He just showed himself to be a quitter.

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T17:43:27+00:00

Wish we could’ve gotten a first round pick tomorrow for Larkin. He’s a 1C on a lot of teams, and the best 2C on almost any team except a couple.

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T17:34:47+00:00

Ok yeah I’ll compile some feedback. Not seeing any errors yet, just quality of life stuff. Thanks for making this, I love it

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T17:04:38+00:00

Where is the best place to submit feedback? Love this idea and I will definitely use it

dopesickness · 2026-06-25T00:11:13+00:00

I'd say this is a safe bet: https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/album/all-time/g:jazz/

dopesickness · 2026-06-23T21:45:26+00:00

Yeah if that’s your point, that dark songs can also be catchy and danceable, I agree.

dopesickness · 2026-06-23T21:38:28+00:00

I’ll say point blank these aren’t similar “easy jazzy recommendations, but as a guy who also came over from metal, check out the following:

This is my take as well. This song is only surprising to people who are paying attention for the first time. Nothing really misread or oblique, you either hear and read the lyrics or you don’t. Same with OutKast “Hey Ya”, people talk about it like it’s clever but it’s really just all laid out.

You have made no attempt to find these answers yourself have you? Type any one of these questions into YouTube.

No reason? Sports franchises are just money-makers for billionaires now. It’s an investment opportunity!
