re: Fallout Trailer (Amazon) - Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins

Posted by Shreveporter on 4/13/24 at 4:41 pm

As a gamer, the Diablo franchise is more of my jam, but my two oldest kids played a lot of Fallout 4 and I watched them enough to be casually aware of the world. This adaptation is extremely well done. Devotees may be enamored (or critcal) on a whole different level, but this is a fun series for any...

re: Can we take a moment to appreciate Flau'jae Johnson?

Posted by Shreveporter on 4/3/24 at 6:53 pm

Watched the game with my 14 yo daughter who is just starting to get into LSU sports now that big bro is at LSU. She *loves* Flau’Jae. When I told her about the rapping and her appearance on AGT, she said, “She’s so cool, being good at basketball is like the least cool thing about her.” Flau’Jae’s de...

[quote]Clark is actually a ball player. Reese just rebounds and puts in garbage baskets[/quote] Isn't rebounding and putting in baskets part of being a ball player? Or at least one way of being a ball player? Also, what's a garbage basket? Is it worth less points than a non-garbage basket?...

Posted by Shreveporter on 3/31/24 at 11:10 am

It's going to be interesting to see where the rest of the media goes over the next day or two. Even though they didn't go as far as the LA Times with their labeling, they'd definitely pushed the "LSU Women are the villains of the sport" narrative and played up the "LSU vs the world" (because in the ...

FWIW, I belong to a conservative professional online discussion group and one of the physicians there is from Britt's hometown and has known her since she was a child. Apparently, the delivery was "just her" and not some put-on. ...

Even having read the tweet before watching the video, I wasn’t prepared for the visceral reaction I had to the clip. Because she says it like believing in “certain unalienable rights” is some lunatic fringe idea. Her tone, her mannerisms, her phrasing… It’s like she’s sounding the alarm and raising ...

I'm a pediatrician. I recognize the explosion of mental health issues in our youth. I am confronted with it daily. On paper, the idea of "school based mental health interventions" sound great but many of the concerns/criticisms raised by people in this thread are valid. Psychology, psychiatry and ev...
