Day after my 2nd pfizer shot I basically felt like I had a mild cold.

Woke up achey and fatigued with a 99 degree fever (I normally run 97). Got chills and headaches during the day.

Next morning I felt fine again.

I was the only person in the office that got more than some soreness.

They didn't really get along in the original Avengers until the very end when they HAD to come together to stop the invasion!
Coulson literally had to die and Fury had to throw bloody cards in front of them to make them work together.

And Hulk still punches Thor away in the middle of the final battle.

Fighters Destiny probably got to 50 hours all told. Or Army Men Sarge's Heroes. Maybe Street Hockey 95.

Though real answer is probably an old Apple 2 or early PC game from when I was a little kid and had few options. Like Matterhorn Mountain or something.

You just listed ~7 out of every single female that youve ever known.
No. I listed about 7 of the females in my immediate family or friend circle/their GFs. You said to look at people dated not every female I've known.

That number will add dozens of trained martial artists and military vets if you go everyone I've known. And probably hundreds of women trained in self defense and/or athletes in far better shape than the average man.

Also, how many women, on average, engage in fighting / training compared to the average man? Much fewer. The only way a woman wins, like I said, is if she is very strong. This includes experience in fighting.

Just ask yourself how many women you and your friends have dated, and compare their strength to yourself and your friends. For me, none of the girls would come even close. But thats my experience. Maybe others have dated very strong women and have very weak guy friends.
I would argue against fight training these days. Self defense classes are really common for women in high school and college. Where they teach specifically how to take out bigger, stronger men.

As for looking among my friends group, one of my friends GFs has black belts in 4 martial arts so she would kick all our asses. Another is a military vet so she definitely has the training to win fights. My sister is trained in kickboxing and could beat me easily. And a couple others are definitely the more athletic of the couple.

So Snyder's original JL vision was to make a 4hr R rated movie in 4:3?

There is no way that was the vision he told DC he wanted to make when they hired him cause they would never have agreed to any of that.

So yeah this is not at all representative of what movie we would have gotten if he had finished it, which was my understanding of what this was supposed to be. This isnt the Snyder Cut it's the Snyder Remake.

It basically has to be a completely different movie than the one he was making before he left.

I mean you are describing why the whole thing is so interesting. Because now they ARE releasing the parts that were cut (like three and a half hours worth) for not being good enough and you have critics saying "actually this is way better.
I mean the 4 hour version might be better but they were never going to make that one. The 2 and a half hour version would likely be nowhere near as good as the "Snyder cut".

It will cover one month of rent for some literally no months for others. No where in the U.S. will it cover rent for two months.
My rent before I bought a house was $650 for a two bedroom apartment. Not section 8 or shared or anything. I think people underestimate how different cost of living is in different areas.

This is exactly why Congress is so loathsome. You can argue the merits of minimum wage increases and other appropriations all you want, but if the main goal is to give struggling people money, then why do the Democrats feel the need to wedge everything into one bill?

Give me one good reason why they couldn't just write a bill for the distribution of $1400 or $2000 checks, full stop, and package the other stuff in a different spending bill. They run both chambers and the presidency.
Because they are only allowed to do this type of reconciliation once a year so they cant do the rest of it separately and Republicans would never let them pass the stand alone check bill without doing it through reconciliation.

If they aren't, great, but we should have cash payouts to the poor in place in case it happens. If it really doesn't cause a lot of people to lose their jobs, then the taxpayers won't have to pay very much for the cash payouts.
Liberals/Dems arent the ones that will fight you on that.

Republicans would never allow it though since "it incentivizes people to be lazy and not work"
