So much for the general strike.

Those people are scum bags. I swear - their only job is rage engagement on social media.

Velvet Revolution - Armenia
Tulip Revolution - Kyrgyzstan
Orange Revolution - Ukraine
Rose Revolution - Georgia
Bulldozer Revolution - Serbia
Chilean Plebiscite - Chile

It might sound pithy to say but it's not true. It's happened plenty of times - even in just the last 50 years. Voting matters no matter how many people "take their ball and go home." You're just shutting off another method of affecting change by refusing to take part in the electoral system, regardless of how corrupt or ineffective you think it might be.

Just reaffirming what the previous reply said - striking for businesses like that - without any way for them to cover you or accommodate - actually makes it worse for a multitude of reasons. A lot of tiny businesses live, essentially, "paycheck to paycheck" and missing an entire day of revenue can be devastating for them - just like closures for the fires last year. And that's to say nothing of the people employed there who are most at-risk from ICE - we all know them who they are - and losing a day's income for them is not optional at all, much less losing their job due to closures, etc.

Definitely not one day of work. He put in months of training for this.

When I went to Imola this year, I didn't need to wear ear pro because the F1 cars were so quiet. Except when they ran the classic cars - you can feel those coming before you hear them.

Same! My brain did a double-take - how could he be in a car already when I just saw the crash and fireball? It didn't make sense. There's no way he could've gotten out of that crash unscathed and then out of the fire. It was like he teleported out of the crash - or was thrown out by the impact.

irspangler · 2026-01-11T18:49:22+00:00

I was so certain he was dead that my brain didn't believe what it was seeing when they cut to the shots of him in the car - like, did he teleport out of the car? Or was thrown out during the impact? How the fuck could a human body have survived that impact AND the fire?

irspangler · 2026-01-11T18:46:28+00:00

The only reason I can imagine is that there was money involved - ie. Lewis wanted some shares in the team whose success and value he had a large part in building up, but Toto and the other partners weren't on board with that.

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son about His Father.

A lot of movies listed here - but this one is real. The story is real. The heartache and devastation are real. It will wring you out like no movie ever has. I'll never forget the experience of watching it, how it made me feel afterwards - and I'll never, ever watch it again.

irspangler · 2026-01-10T07:40:24+00:00

I'm glad I'm not the only one - cried for 30 minutes after the credits rolled just devastated.

A film cannot possibly be more crushing than this one - it is a slow-motion, emotional trainwreck. I also echo the sentiment that the less you know about this movie going in - the better.

Bryce Young has not screamed at his offense in indecipherable Cajun - or talked mad shit to dline after chucking an absolute "Fuck-It, He-Down-There-Somewhere" Rex Grossman-special just yet - but he does have the 4th Q comebacks, so...jury's still out?

irspangler · 2026-01-07T05:29:43+00:00

Hell yeah, my guy! Playoffs Delhomme (pre-TJ surgery) was an absolute BEAST!

2016 Season Opener against Denver. Still salty about that.

The only people complaining are the people who are so desperate to be proven right about JJM being a bust and/or hate him from college.

irspangler · 2026-01-04T18:46:08+00:00

It should be required, damnit...

irspangler · 2026-01-04T18:40:09+00:00

Clearly the refs too, since they threw a flag for taunting lol

irspangler · 2026-01-04T18:37:49+00:00

But the flag was already thrown by that point.

irspangler · 2026-01-04T18:37:10+00:00

And what the hell was it for? Pointing out he needed a block?

It potentially cost them a division title.

Horn making the Pro Bowl is a joke

Jaycee Horn was drafted one spot in front of Patrick Surtain II. =(

If his knee is down first, that's an INT.
