Ray Park (Darth Maul) posted some revenge porn on his wife on his IG account -- nm - Remlik Jul 25, 08:25 2

- You Are Remlik. -- nm - Diva Jul 25, 08:28
The replies to the Chiefs player's tweet on sitting out the season are why we'll be dealing with this for several more months at least. -- nm - Tim Jul 25, 08:20 1

Sinclair-owned local TV stations across US are set to air the discredited "Plandemic" conspiracy theory. -- (link*) - Flavorize Jul 25, 07:53 2

- It basically blames Dr Fauci for making COVID -- nm - Flavorize Jul 25, 07:54

- How so? I'm not always plugged into what you are talking about :) -- nm - crash davis Jul 25, 08:13 2
  - He instagrammed his wife giving him a blowjob. There’s a lot of thought it was done as revenge porn as a lot of family discord - Will Hunting Jul 25, 08:15 1

- “I can’t tell you today if blast balls are a good idea or a bad idea, but I know that sometime a long time ago I approved them.” So he's upset that - Krusty Jul 25, 05:42 2
  - sounds like a federal judge, yeah. -- nm - Reagen Jul 25, 05:42 1
    - The stay sounds ridiculous and other cities have banned the use of pepper spray and other irritants so I don't really see a good reason - Krusty Jul 25, 05:46

I really enjoyed that episode of Agents of SHIELD but I felt it was a non-episode. Nothing happened. Except... that thing that happened. -- nm - Mop Jul 24, 20:57 4

My Pokémon Gofest report for Andie: I caught two Unown in the first five minutes. -- nm - mafic Jul 24, 19:26 30
- Yay! -- nm - Andie Jul 25, 04:54
- A more serious report - mafic Jul 24, 20:01 1
  - And you aren't required to finish that research during the go fest hours, so if you want to do those 2 raids after 8pm when day 1 ends, you can -- nm - ty97 Jul 24, 20:03
- So now they're not unown and are not that rare. Lame. -- nm* - JaxSean Jul 24, 19:40 4
  - Unown are always at Go Fests and Safari Zones but only certain ones. There are 28 different ones of them to collect. - ty97 Jul 24, 19:42 3
    - I have (spoilers I guess?) - mafic Jul 24, 19:54 2

      - It's a unique event. There'll likely never be another GoFest like this one. -- nm - Mop Jul 24, 21:01 1
        
        We can hope, because it would mean the pandemic is over by next summer! -- nm* - ty97 Jul 24, 22:20
  - What time does it start? -- nm - amanda Jul 24, 19:58 12
    - 10am local -- nm - spamlet Jul 24, 20:01 11
      - Don't be late amanda! It's looks like 10am ET, our first hour, is battle habitat hour which includes Gible. -- nm - ty97 Jul 24, 20:04 10
        
        What???? Can you just tell me what I have to do and when? -- nm - amanda Jul 24, 20:13 3
        
        Catch all the things! Starting at 10am! -- nm - ty97 Jul 24, 20:16 1

        10 is early. -- nm - amanda Jul 24, 20:13

        I know there’s a second one but I need some Gible. -- nm - spamlet Jul 24, 20:12 4
        
        I'm assuming the schedule I saw is correct so take that with some grain of salt. If it is correct then - ty97 Jul 24, 20:16 3
        
        Okay you have my number. Just text me. I'll go to campus? Is that like the best thing? -- nm - amanda Jul 24, 20:24 1
        
        You can if you want, but incense is going to spawn so many pokemon during Go Fest that you can also hang out at home and still catch tons. - ty97 Jul 24, 20:26
        
        That’s the one I saw as well -- nm - spamlet Jul 24, 20:16
  - I was wondering if you had given in yet -- nm - ty97 Jul 24, 19:35 3

  - Word -- nm - Spawn Jul 24, 19:16
- One way ticket to Mandyville. -- nm - Tim Jul 24, 18:52
- President Bartlett was only supposed to be in a few episodes the first season. I love his comments to the woman reporter on White House protocol. -- nm - Peglegpete Jul 24, 18:44 2
  - I believe the woman you're referring to was the Dr. Laura clone. -- nm - Blue Punch Baron Jul 24, 18:47 1

The fake crowd noise is weird (though I can't decide if it would be weirder without it). When the Brewers got their first base hit, Rizzo pulled out - pmb Jul 24, 17:31 1
- It would be infinitely better without it, I don't think I'll watch much unless they get rid of it. -- nm - mud Jul 24, 17:34

- Lost. Hands down -- nm - TWuG Jul 24, 18:20 1
  - probly -- nm - mud Jul 24, 18:31
- It's Seinfeld, and nothing else is even close. -- nm - David Jul 24, 18:11 3
  - Agreed -- nm - JaxSean Jul 24, 19:45
  - eh...they did every single sitcom troupe in that one episode. -- nm - Remlik Jul 24, 18:23

- Dexter by a mile. -- nm - Reagen Jul 24, 18:00
- Bob Newhart & Suzanne Pleshette are somewhere laughing -- nm - Peglegpete Jul 24, 17:51
- HIMYM, Roseanne, Seinfeld, Lost, Sopranos, and St. Elsewhere have to mentioned in there somewhere. -- nm - Blue Punch Baron Jul 24, 17:36 6
  - I finished the 5th or 6th rewatch of the entire run of Sopranos just last night, the finale was perfection. -- nm - mud Jul 24, 17:39
  - I didn't see Roseanne mentioned, but all the rest, yes. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:37 4
    - I'm a viking at identifying disappointing TV! Hey, check out The Terror: Infamy! - Blue Punch Baron Jul 24, 17:52 3
      - Can you call it a disappointing ending when the whole thing was disappointing? -- nm - Mop Jul 24, 19:11 2
        
        What else would it be? An appointing ending? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 20:45 1
        
        It would be "as expected". -- nm - Mop Jul 24, 21:10
- GoTWorld was overwhelmed by a Loud Minority of Whiners like the GOP was invaded by MAGA -- nm - mud Jul 24, 17:32 1

- With shoutouts to Mass Effect 3 and Star Wars TROS -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:28 4
  - And one for Chuck -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:31 3
    - Ahahah - Dinosaurs. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:34 2
      - See, I'm fond of that ending. Gutsy. -- nm - Blue Punch Baron Jul 24, 17:39 1
        
        That's why I laughed. It wasn't bad, it was perfect. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:44
Well, supposedly it's been confirmed on msnbc that the "federal agents" are mercs. -- (link) - Beryllium Jul 24, 17:24 2

  - Worldometers credits Texas Department of State Health and The Texas Tribune for their numbers. So... I dunno. -- nm - Qale Jul 24, 18:17
- Um, last 3 days are among the 12 highest, though. -- nm - Spawn Jul 24, 17:23 1
  - Look, I didn’t say it was awesome. But that is at least the shape we’re wanting. Of course if Governor Robo-Brain hadn’t fought cities originally... -- nm - Qale Jul 24, 17:27
a live interview with David Crosby started on You Tube 10 minutes ago -- (link) - Peglegpete Jul 24, 17:19 [youtube] 1
