This exactly. Just because the charges dismissed against somebody doesn't mean the internal investigations didn't make it clear they'd be better off without his influence, and it also doesn't mean the person is innocent of being deeply toxic and likely to run into issues again, it just means a prosecutor wasn't willing to risk anything other than a clear win as so often happens with these types of cases.

I've seen a lot of gameplay footage of the SG-1000, and while it doesn't seem like a bad console for its modest hardware and goals, it is of course easy to see why it so struggled to keep up with the Famicom.

As an auto racing fan who gets the commercial for this every commercial break in Indycar or NASCAR, I am at the very least glad that they have a different trailer to show hopefully.

Bob Pockrass on the birdsite debunked the theory that Todd Braun owns the other Kaulig Charter, he said to the best of anybody's knowledge both charters are at least majority in Matt Kaulig's control.

Rather, he said for a couple months now despite never reported it has been kind of of an open secret in the garage that Austin Hill is the favorite for the 2nd Kaulig car cause his loyal sponsors plan on coming with him and Kaulig wants to self-sponsor the 31 less.

I really tried on the Ms. Marvel series but it was not for me and I knew it by the second episode, and Captain Marvel was one of the most formulaic, underbaked films of that Phase. Maybe it is just because Guardians being done means whatever strong investments I once had in the MCU are fading away because it's all just too much of the same, but really nothing that screams out to me that this will be enjoyable though I will ultimately see it (a couple friends and I see every MCU movie despite most of us being super burnt out)

I found this really surprising, Justin has had a really solid season this year, he's kept up largely with AJ and is distantly in the conversation for the final transfer spots in the playoffs. I really thought he would have been re-signed.

Could just be as simple as Kaulig balking at paying Justin a fair wage when they have the likely much cheaper Chandler Smith waiting, and Rick Ware having surprisingly deep pockets if you consider his diverse portfolio of race teams now. However, you got rumors SVG wants to move to NASCAR as soon as next year, through Kaulig's close RCR relationship you got Austin Hill and Brodie Kostecki, this seat could be a have a lot of potential suitors sniffing around it.

The other question I guess is what promises Rick Ware made to Haley about improving that team in the longterm for him to sign a multi-year contract rather than just a one off hoping something better (like almost any other team) comes open?

I once made the mistake of getting pretty drunk and watching this film, bad vibes, but thankfully I have seen it much better conditions and adore its sadsack paranoia. Fantastic film.

Was coming here to basically say this, that religious epics were once a source of great filmmaking in classic Hollywood.

Yeah same, I don't remember the last time I even thought about them but it is very nice to revisit

Naomi is a song I have mixed feelings about. I love it, but it is also the creepiest, most stalkerish song ever written and makes me feel a little gross singing along to it, lol.

I really enjoyed this, being introduced things like this I otherwise wouldn't be are why this is becoming one of my favorite communities on here

My first real introduction to the Carter Family when I was first really getting into alt-country as a teenager, I make regular habit of listening to both versions these days
