That’s alright. When I first saw the episode USS Calilister I thought he was Matt Damon.

Plemons is actually married to Kirsten Dunst. He’s got quite a lot of acting credits under his belt. Friday Night Lights, Varsity Blues, and most recently Killers of the Flower Moon with Leonardo DiCaprio.

That’s Jesse Plemons. I don’t see Video Game Highschool on his list of acting credits in IMDB.

You might be thinking of Bryan Forrest.

Or Rutger Hauer in Blade Runner.

One of the most influential science fiction monologues was ad libbed, and it’s so much better than the original script.

Original script:

“I’ve seen things… seen things you little people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion bright as magnesium… I rode on the back decks of a blinker and watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments… they’ll be gone.”

Hauer’s monologue:

“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion… I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain… Time to die.”

OMFG…funny. Stealing this!

I read a different article about this a few days back. The "identity theft" reasoning was due to simple Google searches conducted by the newspaper. This asshat really overstepped his authority (he had to have done it before). I'd love to see concrete repercussions, yet I won't hold my breath.

No, the orange spine books are all 1st Edition rules. They were the second printing published around 1983.

There were a few interesting books published in 1985 by TSR prior to 2nd Edition. Legends and Lore, Unearthed Arcana, and Oriental Adventures.

Legends and Lore was 2e.

The 1985 2nd printing of L&L (where the name was changed and the Lovecraft items were removed) was still under 1st Edition rules. That's the copy I have.

Was Legends & Lore really originally a 1st edition book?
Yes. Legends & Lore was originally a reprinting of Deities & Demigods with a new title and cover. It was later recast into a 2nd edition book. The 2nd edition version contains new content.

I might still have all the basic D&D rulebooks from Basic through Immortals, however they're no longer in their boxes.

IIRC Cthulu was in there. However I have Legends & Lore, not Deities & Demigods. Basically the same book, except TSR changed the name because "the devil."

EDIT

I did not recall correctly. The Lovecraft stuff isn't in the 2nd printing.

I still have almost the entire first edition library of these at my brother's house. I need to get them back.

"I have been unfairly sued by the Trump Hating Democrat Attorney General of New York State, Letitia James, over the false fact that I inflated my Financial Statements in order to borrow money from Banks, etc…"

Trump has measured himself by lining up assets against liabilities for his entire adult life. In his 1987 bestseller, The Art of the Deal, he recalled his net worth when he graduated from college ("perhaps $200,000," probably the only time he ever low-balled his stash), publicly memorializing a benchmark for measuring his future success.

He added three and almost four zeroes to that figure during the 1980s as a tabloid caricature. As "The Donald" he honed the art of net worth lobbying. Financial summaries would arrive at the FORBES offices, often on gilded Trump-embossed letterheads for extra pop. "We soon learned to take the number he threw out to us for his net worth, immediately divide it by three and refine it from there," remembers Harold Seneker, who ran The Forbes 400 for the first 15 years of its existence. And, indeed, the "divide by three" rule seemed to hold throughout the 1980s, including 1988, when we pegged him at an even $1 billion. The Donald, not content with his new billionaire status, countered with $3.74 billion.

Trump has admitted to doing this time and time again…amazing he can continuously dupe his supporters on Truth Social.

I don’t know, honestly all the prosecution showed as evidence were possessions. Proof would be financial records or other documentation that shows a chain of custody of those possessions and money.

Jury is still out. Doesn’t look good, however I’d reserve judgement until new things come to light.

A decision in Pulsifer v. U.S., 22-340, is expected by spring.

Whoa now! Let’s not allow the wheels of justice to speed along here!

OMFG…this pekingese is a little scrapper. Such a cute dog.

I’ve been trained on hazardous atmospheres and confined space entry, and worked with asphyxiant gases as an air separation plant operator/technician. One breath of a hazardous atmosphere will knock a person unconscious because upon inhalation the brain is immediately deprived of oxygen. There are asphyxiation industrial accidents regularly, and it’s often horrible because it usually involves two people. The person who’s initially exposed, and then the person who attempts initial rescue because they don’t understand the hazard.

Death may occur in minutes, but it’s not like drowning or suffocating. Unconsciousness is immediate.

I’m going to start off this conversation by first saying I’m not an advocate of the death penalty. However, of all the methods used, asphyxiation is not “cruel and unusual.” It is quick (as in immediate) and painless. This is why the defendant’s lawyers have no idea what they’re talking about.

No acting, more time at Wahlburgers…ugh…I mean yay…I mean…shouldn’t he just go away?

The answer seems to be no. I’m anticipating Sony, MS, and Nintendo’s response on this. Did they even know about it? I’m very curious to see how this pans out because at this viewpoint it seems like an entire shit show.

It’s almost as if it’s a convenient distraction by design.
