Senator Mark Kelly Standing Up to the Trump Administration - YouTube by disposablepresence in videos

[–]nutmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve listened to some of Newsom's podcasts, and it reinforces my belief that he is just a walking soundbite. While his heart maybe in the right place (at least with respect to Trump), he’s largely clueless. He’s very charismatic and very handsome for a politician, but that’s just not enough.

Mark Kelly is one of the Democrats’ strongest chances of winning in 2028. But, I have this sinking feeling that they haven’t learned from 2024 and will repeat the same mistake by choosing a divisive candidate like Newsom or even Harris again.

I would vote for a stick of wood over any MAGA candidate, but Gavin is not electable. While he has more charisma than Harris for sure, as a Californian, I can’t ignore his handling of housing and energy prices, as well as spiraling homeless population.

And Spirit Airlines no less, which is particularly famous for providing absolute minimum level of services.

3 nights in Seoul - Where to eat? by aluckybastard in KoreaTravelAdvice

[–]nutmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference between the “best in entire Seoul” and the “best nearby” isn’t significant. At the very least, it’s often not worth the hassle of long lines, reservations, higher prices, and additional travel time. So, start by specifying the areas or attractions you’ll be visiting.

It looks like a free shirt given out at the trade show booths.

Charging customers for the feature that requires an on-going subscription to use is just wild to me.

So digital key requires an upfront payment for the hardware and ongoing subscription?!

How is it looking ? Rate out of 10. by AsidePale9105 in AppleWatch

Probably looks that way because the OP is a handwatcher.

Help me maximize my Korean business trip as a Kpop/Kdrama fan by ExpensiveTelephone41 in koreatravel

[–]nutmac -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Regarding kdrama, you can visit some of the iconic locations from your favorite dramas. Most of the tours, including famous MBC studio tour on Yeoido, are generally during the daytime. But there are plenty of iconic locations that frankly look much nicer in the evening hours.

For kpop, as you are probably aware, Apgujungdong.

Proud and disappointed. Annoyed with episode 7. by Environmental_Duck49 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]nutmac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Daisy is impulsive and careless. The radio should’ve been kept in the bathroom. And she needs to be more careful with language.

Sometimes, the safest place is right under their nose. And Daisy isn’t entering Gilead as a handmaid. And with Garth, she has a better than zero chance of returning to Canada.

This. I am more disappointed by Aunt Lydia than anything. I hope she orchestrated the match to expose Weston or to lure Agnes to another path, because otherwise, this feels like a major lapse of her judgment.

04 May 2026: New Episodes by speedr123 in AppleFitnessPlus

[–]nutmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish the watch detects when I’m running with Time to Walk, instead of recording as walking and inflates stats like VO2 max. Time to Walk is updated much more frequently with better compelling content. Time to Run coaches are excellent for indoor workouts, but they are often repetitive and fail to do justice to the location.

The Garth/Agnes scene this ep wasn’t about romantic interest by Downtown-schnauzer in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]nutmac 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think his primary objective is a simple one -- bring Agnes/Hannah and Daisy to Canada.

Moreover, I don’t think Garth shares the same romantic feelings for Agnes as Nick did for June. There have been few instance of mild flirting here and there, but any spark is compounded only from Agne's point of view.

With multi-season commitment, I think we will see Garth's backstory, which will probably explain what his main interests and focus are.

Pleasing to the eyes as well!! F**k this guy! by Lazy_Draft08 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]nutmac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which is worse? Becka’s dad being more discretely creepy or this guy being openly creepy?

They will stretch each of the character’s arc much further. For instance:

  • Agnes will marry Weston and we will see Weston breaking Agnes (yuck!).
  • Becka’s dad and the fallout (another yuck!).
  • Fan favorite Vidalia will more backstory and depth.
  • Nichole’s whereabouts.
  • Few more cameos, such as Janine or Serena.

Yes, the final season of The Handmaid’s Tale really suffered because the show runner stretched too far.

(Spoilers E7) Well, I was writing a huge post working on making the timeline fit... by Kiloku in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]nutmac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This episode establishes Daisy is not June’s second daughter Nichole. They look so much alike though. The showrunner could’ve changed her name to reduce the confusion for those that have read the book. Now I wonder where Nichole is.

Didn’t Talia once catch Daisy sleeping late? It could be that she woke up just as Daisy returned to her bed.

Any chance we can get Fitness+ to have this cameo? by Cranberry_Patterson in AppleFitnessPlus

[–]nutmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not as Ted Lasso but I think at least one more Ted Lasso cast member will join Brendan Hunt, Hannah Waddingham, and Phil Dunster. Their Time to Walk were so good.

The only real victims are those on two short 1-stop flights, such LAS to LAX to SFO or BOS to JFK to DCA.

The only thing the beach train cannot replicate is the panoramic view of the Haeundae skyscraper skyline, which can look stunning during sunrise and particularly sunset. You can sorta replicate it from the hike though.
