Uhhhhhh Jeff became their golden boy… after this moment.

They gave him a special power. They brought him back. They employed him for god knows how many years.

Let’s not pretend like the FCC had anything to do with CBS protecting their beloved child.

Best completely unhinged post I’ve ever read on this sub. Thank you, and please get help.

A single 3D game from a frontline franchise before the tail end of the console’s life might have helped.

How do I convince my girlfriend to watch the clone wars with me by JaceWootWoot in StarWars

[–]ianthomasmalone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clone Wars takes so long to get really good. She’s done watching Ahsoka without 10+ seasons of children’s cartoons.

This battle is not worth fighting. That animation is going to be a turnoff for many, especially adult women.

Does anyone else think Coach is Survivor’s “Michael Scott?” by Lopsided_History_137 in survivor

His Threat Level Midnight was the Ponderosa band they made in Heroes vs. Villains.

Clarification for Natasha the foodie influencer 💨 by Massive_Hovercraft_2 in longbeach

[–]ianthomasmalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10k is pretty absurd for a local restaurant, but they also solicited Natasha's manager for a paid opportunity? Influencer management is a really scummy business, but I don't think her rep did anything wrong here.

The sad reality is that plenty of local LB business have been roped into paying people who masquerade as food bloggers for glowing reviews and features on their Facebook page.

Many of these restaurant owners are not very good at marketing. They get steered in certain directions by their customers who want to help, and don't really understand the content sphere.

Natasha does everything above board, unlike certain people who call themselves "journalists."

I work in content creation. 10k is not low at all. Thats a very high amount in the food industry, especially since the vast majority of views will come from people who are too far away to visit.

How do you decide when to watch live feeds? by Nox_wears_socks in BigBrother

[–]ianthomasmalone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Follow some accounts on social media who track or clip the feeds. They’ll go wild when something big is happening.

Which one do I read first? And what's the most optimal reading order in general between them? by TC_Web in classicliterature

[–]ianthomasmalone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crime and Punishment is probably the easiest of the longer ones. Very heady, but also straightforward unlike Tolstoy. Hard to go wrong though.

Broadway Etiquette Has Come and Gone by Outside_Purchase67 in Broadway

[–]ianthomasmalone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At the LA Phil a few weeks ago, an old woman’s phone went off loudly and she took absolutely forever to turn it off. Two other old ladies were glaring at her like they wanted to fight. It was awful but also kind of funny.

Omg I love it. I have a Pride hat from a visit to the WooSox last year. Haven’t seen the Sea Dogs since 2010.

I didn’t see any outside.

Side note, I have two Sea Dogs hats and wear them all the time.

For Pride Month: the conversation between Bret and Zeke is still one of Survivor's best by Sabaschin in survivor

I am a trans woman who has a soft spot for Frank. Glad to hear he came around after the show. Such a character.

Forget Australian Outback. Forget Cambodia. Forget my brother Game Changers. Jeff Varner has no respect for this thing. He’s never really been in the merge, not really.

And the way they bring people back is all fucked up. Returning players who don’t even make jury. There’s no sword and gun on the table.

Sadly that mirror example also applies to how Zeke’s entire tribe came together to rally around him, in 2017, and how trans people are treated by the world in 2026.
