I really need to go through my cards and just pick out one small box full and sell the rest on Craigslist for $10. I have a box that's about 18" cubed. It doesn't take up that much space, but it's wasted space. Like you, most of mine were acquired between 1984 and 1990. One thing that...

The problem with biographies of famous people is that real life doesn't really have a plot. Ray and Walk the Line were well-acted, but it's just a series of episodes more than it is a cohesive story. I'm interested in Bohemian Rhapsody, but I didn't rush out to see it because of the so-so...

I saw that yesterday and thought it has to have been staged, but maybe not. I can't decide.

YEah, "do not watch it," was shorthand for, "you're going to get a bunch of good recommendations in this thread. Take those, and ignore Hereditary, assuming your time is valuable."

It's obvious, but Blair Witch project is great. Paranormal Activity is good. Do not watch Hereditary. It got great reviews for some reason, but I thought it was totally derivative.

I have not read Carrion Comfort. I'll add that to the list. I almost never read multiple books at a time. Occasionally if I want to read a business book, I'll do so at the same time I'm reading a novel. Also, a shoutout to the Hennepin County Library system, which lets you check out ebooks...

If you like Simmons, have you read Ilium and Olympos? They're his best, I think. The only Simmons book I didn't like was Drood, his book about Dickens. One of the few books I've ever quit in the middle. Outside of sci-fi. Don Winslow's The Border is due out in February. I'd recommend...

Not that it matters, but Sims is dating Koepka, not Woods. Otherwise, I think you described the situation accurately.

I'm not sure people forget, I think people hold it against him. He averaged 8.4 HRs for 13 of his 14 years as an Opening Day starter. In those 13 years he had an SLG% of .421. The other year was 28 HRs and an SLG% of .587 , and just happened to be a contract year. There are several...

To be fair to Ogee, I watched the video and the audio is pretty bad. I can see where the mistake was made. I also find it interesting that only Breitbart wrote their story that way.

I was not able to find a reference to the NYT reporter using the term "colored" anywhere except Breitbart. Golf Channel has the question as: "At times, especially 2018, I think a lot of people, especially people of color, immigrants are threatened by him and his policy – what do you say to...

The last book I thought was truly outstanding was Gentleman in Moscow. Have read a bunch of decent books since then, but nothing that I thought was combination of entertaining and great writing

That was a brutal loss. Loons felt in control for most of the game. Too many points dropped to the dregs of MLS. Will really be regretting those at the end of the year. I was torn on the card. I thought Ibarra deserved the straight red, and I couldn't decide if the other guy did as well...

I saw this tweet yesterday. This seems preposterous now, but lots of people were saying it at the time. <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> I'll go on record and say that the 2 best QBs from this draft will end up being Lamar Jackson and...

I really wanted to love Mindhunter, but it was just OK. It was kind of creepy, but there was very little suspense. I'm hoping season 1 was mostly exposition and the suspense will come in the 2nd season. The older partner plays a very different character in Shot Caller, which I watched last...

If politics has infected everything, why isn't college football struggling with empty stadiums?
