Matt Dillon clip from The Outsiders (1983). Link to video I haven't thought about Matt Dillon in a long time. I want to watch this movie again. https://m.imdb.com/name/nm0000369/ "Brat Pack Movies Beyond 'The Breakfast Club' Films starring the young actors collectively known as the "Brat Pack," including Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez, Tom Cruise, Sean Penn, Demi Moore, Andrew McCarthy, Matt Dillon, Nicolas Cage, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Timothy Hutton, and Molly Ringwald." These are actors who were popular when people my age (Gen. X) were in high school. I still say Rose McGowan was the best actor of my generation. By far. It's a shame she was blacklisted by Hollywood, and thereby her film career was basically ended, at which point she was essentially only able to work in television, starting in Charmed in which she left her peers in the dust. She once said she happened to be great at acting and could have been the greatest meaning among the greatest. It's true. What a loss for everyone all because of a crime committed against her and a corrupt Hollywood system.

@Daniel said in Weather where you are thread: So 30" yesterday! How much today? It was all yesterday.

@Bernard said in What happens after Minneapolis?: I appreciate that she is speaking out, but she defends an assault on the Capital, and has spent years being a disrespectful, hard line, nasty so and so. It's not like she's had a major epiphany, it seems to me. I don't trust her. Still, the more people like her who turn on the orange bastard and his fascist administration, the better. This is basically my take. It seems to me that we don’t get out of this mess without current Trump supporters figuring out that they need to stand up to him and stand against him. So yeah, MTG is a gross human being, but I hope she keeps speaking out against what’s going on in this moment.

@realplayer I agree. One of the first things on my to do list is to visit The Dalí Museum in Saint Petersburg again. I haven't been there in a long time. I want to find a nature preserve. Rural Florida is unique and beautiful. I want to create an exercise program for myself. I want to buy a desk, an office chair, a bookshelf, a desktop computer, and a printer. It's been a long time since I could sit down and write letters, etc., use software instead of a phone, and print anything. I want to buy a Pixel 10 XL and experiment with the camera. I might want to buy a digital camera at some point. I want to find an online college level course to learn Latin.

Beautiful place, understatement, great architecture, haven't been there, but understand the climate is cold and harsh as fuck.

Well, I didn't know that about Vietnam.

Nice! It reminds me of Motorola flip phones.

They need to shut down the government if they can consequences be damned. Otherwise, they know what they are voting for and they are sociopathic scum. It has nothing to do with "purity." It's about taking a stand at a moment in time that clearly has historical significance. Enough of the excuses and rationalizations. And please spare me the- "These are the crumbs we got."- speech.

I don't give a flying fuck what Ted Cruz thinks, or what he says behind closed doors when he thinks MAGA can't hear him. He can't be gone fast enough from the political scene ...

Thank you so much, Andy.

Minneapolis is a Second Amendment wake-up call https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/minneapolis-is-a-second-amendment-wake-up-call/ar-AA1UUnS9

One thing remarkable from the video is how high he can lift one leg, put his foot on something, and then effortlessly use it to lift his body. He lifts one leg up to waist height and lifts his body like we might do on a single stair.

and Trump and company are accessories to murder again.

Ahhahahhaaaaa!

Congratulations! It was so stressful waiting for Rob’s permanent residency when we went through that whole process years ago. He got his citizenship a couple years ago, and it is such a weight off of our minds to have the whole thing done!

I think there's enough toxic chemicals that won't go away it's safe to say they're forever. Could we filter all the toxic chemicals in the air, land, and sea, or even come close? We're as likely to colonize Mars. I've seen the plastic in the Pacific wash up on some beached on Hawaii Island uncontrollably. This is to say nothing of nuclear waste. I'm sorry but we live in a toxic planet and we'll die on it too.

I have been a YouTube Premium subscriber for a few years. It costs me closer to $25 a month. So your $9.99 is more likely a promotional discount price. Best thing about YouTube Premium is that you watch things ad-free (some movies are still ad-supported, but they are few and I usually don't care about them). Also, if watching on a smartphone or a tablet, you can download and watch offline, and programs that you only need to listen and not watch actively, a Premium subscription allows you to keep the program playing while your smartphone or tablet's screen is off or in screen locked mode (e.g., very good for audio books on YouTube). Also, for certain programs that go slow, you can play at faster playback speeds (up to 3x) to save time (or at least not spend too much time on the boring parts).
