No. I do remember playing it for the first time, but I doubt it was on release day. At that age I wasn't aware of release dates. I'd just see it at the store and ask for it. Usually I had to wait for a special occasion like a birthday or Christmas to get it.

The Beatles, Elvis, Michael Jackson and others have sold more albums, but they've also had decades more time to sell albums than Taylor Swift. She's the most popular musician alive today, and she's still relatively young. That she's even in the conversation is impressive.

I didn't like Godzilla x Kong, though, because the first half extremely dull. It's a lot of walking around. Godzilla is barely in it until the last 20 minutes.

One of the more accurate things Trump said was that he could shoot somebody in the middle of the street and not lose voters. There's a very real chance the man arguing that Presidents can murder anyone they want will be our next President, and half this country doesn't seem concerned.

Historically yes, but I personally dont believe that anymore after these current events.
You can believe whatever you want, but back here in the real world it's pretty clear. Only 21 Republicans voted against Israel aide. By comparison 37 democrats said no. Trump has called himself Israel's best friend and opens rallies by praying for the Israelis. When asked about the children murdered in Gaza, Mike Johnson said it's not Israel's fault... it's the fault of the terrorists. Republican support for Israel is unwavering.

Trump is very up-front with his hatred. Women, minorities, LGBT, immigrants... he's going to give you a front row seat to genocide, and he'll still find time to build Trump hotels over the corpses in Gaza. If you don't vote for the one and only alternative, that's 100% on you.

Nothing in that article that says she has been fired. It's unknown if she'll return to the role because a season 2 was never greenlit. The first season wasn't very popular so it's unlikely they'll do anything else with the character.

The next President of the United States will be Donald Trump or Joe Biden. Period. There is no 3rd option. It doesn't matter if you accept it or not. Doesn't matter if you dislike both options. Doesn't matter if you feel it shouldn't be that way. It will be that way.

Decide which of these 2 men better represent you, and vote for that guy. Full. Fucking. Stop.

There are two competing theories on democracy ITT:
Public officials should change to meet the desires of voters
Vs
Voters should change to meet the desires of public officials
The next President of the United States will be Joe Biden or Donald Trump. Period. All a voter need do is figure out which of these guys will better represent them, and offer a better future for themselves and their family, and the country as a whole. That's it.

If you don't vote at all, or vote for some 3rd party, you haven't "sent a message." If you don't like the results of the election, you are not blameless. If the country sinks, the moral high ground you've built for yourself will not save you.

Do you think they have Kong-sized dental implants for each of his teeth on hand, to cover any toothache he might suffer?

Good thing Kong got frostbite in his right arm. They didn't make an Ironman glove for his left hand. Luckily it was preloaded with the cure for frostbite too. R&D was on the ball that week.

When they read the ancient prophecy about a girl and her monkey off the cave wall, I couldn't look away. To see that scene being made in 2024 was fascinating. Like seeing someone riding a penny-farthing through your neighborhood.

For me, the most satisfying flop was The Flash. For years Ezra Miller was assaulting people, breaking into homes, grooming children, and just generally behaving like a lunatic. Warner Bros stuck by them every step of the way. Other DC movies were shelved, but not The Flash. They were absolutely determined to get The Flash into theaters. No recasts. They supported Ezra every step of the way, hid them from the press, brought them in for reshoots between court dates. I've never seen a major company show such unwavering support for an obvious piece of shit. There were even suggestions that they'd love to have Ezra back in the role for the new universe.

And then it flopped. Hard. Good.

Is this girl the bully?
Yes. She jumped a different girl at school the day before this incident, and was suspended. There is video online of that fight, and her bragging about it. Being suspended, she wasn't even supposed to be at the school the day of this incident. She had her mom drive her there to start this fight.

I am in no way suggesting she deserved what happened. Nobody deserves that. Just debunking the scenario of an innocent bystander being attacked without provocation.
