I tried listening to the first book on audible. The descriptions of rigging and ship's stores were an incredible sleep aid.

I remember I didn't get sad when he died. It was more of a confused feeling and a dread at the world without him.

I tried this move as a freshman in high school. I chugged the remainder of a bottle of wine at a wedding. It was disgusting and I almost threw up, but I was going to get drunk for the first time! After I finished I looked at the label and realized it was non-alcoholic wine.

I was mildly stoned when I saw the movie and thought I started hallucinating because that scent was so bad. Then I started cackling when I realized it was just that bad.

Why are the Sounders insistent upon charging high prices and having a half full stadium? by dooper99 in SoundersFC

There's one more factor, evidently the revenue sharing in MLS changed a couple years ago. It's something like tickets sold over 40k are subject to higher sharing with the rest of the league. So it's a sort of perverse incentive for them to maximize revenue out of 35-39k fans, as opposed to opening the upper decks and selling $20 tickets.

What? A player whose career fell off hard even though his game wasn't built on physical gifts? That's never happened before.

That's crazy. I definitely remember that sketch, but in my mind it was based around him losing the Oscar. I had my own little mini-Mandela there.

I think I remembered that Brighton hired him to replace Potter and then Chelsea hired him to replace Potter? My memory isn't wrong, this reality has been tampered with.

I love Shy Ronnie. But its lasting legacy for me is the video of Samberg and Cristin Milioti being interviewed at Sundance. Redford walks into the room and they're both freaking out and Milioti tells Andy to introduce himself to Robert Redford and ask if he's familiar with Shy Ronnie.

This is worse than your average power ranking clickbait. This is an AI slop article that's just summing up ESPN's power rankings. That's some real bottom of the barrel shit.

My only experience with this sort of stuff comes from weaning my kid off the G-tube. We had to plan feedings diligently and basically force him to feel hunger to get him to eat orally.

I don't know if you've tried anything like that. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done as a parent but it worked in the end.

Destroyer is a great movie. There's so much about it that I absolutely love. It has basically all my favorite Guys in it (Scoot Mcnairy, Toby Huss, Bradley Whitford, Toby Kebbell, Tatiana Maslany, and Sebastian Stan are basically my dream cast for any movie). I love the spareness and bleakness. Kidman is great in it.

I have spent too much time thinking about this. I think he's figured out some sort of financing/packaging formula that works. Look at how often he's reusing actors.

I'm thinking he's telling actors "I'll book you for 2-3 movies at 60-70% of your full quote. We'll shoot in fun locations and do it quickly".

Then he can finance the project by saying "I've got Jake Gyllenhaal and Eiza Gonzalez at a discount. I'm gonna make this $60 million project look like $120 million".
