None!

What year is this?

Gross. Do you want guys with handlebar mustaches wearing tighty whitey underwear?

There is a reason why we evolved to have less body hair.

Space Force came out on Friday.

It did not do well with the critics, but I think the negative reviews are misplaced.

There are not a lot of gut busting laughs, but as a satire that makes fun of our current political climate, it hits the mark. A lot of the jokes will go over the head of most people... It's more subtle.

I feel like it could have been a bit more edgy. They played it too safe by trying to be politically neutral.

I watched "White Lines."



This trailer actually makes the show look quite a bit more exciting than it actually is.

Aside from all the negatives, let's look on the bright side. What are some positive aspects that the current crisis may lead to?

I thought that this might lead Americans to embrace universal health care, or universal basic income but that seems to still be seen as "radical."

1) Tying health care to your job?
2) Supply chains
3) Increased education regarding bacteria and viruses
4) The environmental changes that have been proven?

Thick cut and cooked well.

No slimy parts.

Bacon should come in a rectangle. Not a flat sheet of overlapping thin slimy fatty scraps.

I doubt if the Artful Dodger or Buz have ever visited a VA facility, much less been treated at one. I can only speak for the VA medical care I have received. I have always been able to access care when I needed it and been treated with great courtesy and respect. There is never more than a 15 minute wait when you check in to see a doctor. The Navy coremen who take blood pressure, etc., are courteous and business like. Doctors have time to listen and offer alternatives. I pay a $7 co pay for a drug that costs more than $1,000 a month. I can access my medical records on line and any VA specialist I see has access to my complete records. I am very healthy. The VA has accessable mental health, weight loss and drug addiction programs. The VA didn't tell me to "Go fuck myself," I was told to come in and be healthy. The VA is one of the world's most efficient health care systems. Ninety eight percent of Vets getting VA care would not want it privitised.


Is anyone actually arguing for the VA to be privatized?

I think the subject of the thread is the cost of health care.

You just made a pretty good argument for universal health care in addition to the argument that all vets should get complimentary spelling lessons.

Maybe you would like to address the subject of the thread and suggest how some of the cost effective measures of the VA could be applied to the entire population?

I prefer fries with salt and vinegar. Or gravy. Although I think that fries are consumed far too much in our modern society.

Apparently COVID has decreased fries consumption so that the world actually has a massive surplus of potatoes.

Due to this thread though, I am now really craving McDonalds fries.

The healthcare system in the US is generally a reactive system and not a proactive system. Just a 1-2% reduction in chronic disease would save billions alone and free up healthcare dollars for just about anything including social programs to... prevent more chronic disease. This is certainly not the primary reason but it plays a large role in why we pay so much.


This is a good point.

We have a system that makes money off the sick instead of system than prevents illness.

When people tout the health care systems of France or Japan, they often fail to state that these cultures are generally more healthy overall.

However, a large percentage of the American health care costs are due to to price of pharmaceuticals. The US is the only nation on earth that does not negotiate with pharma companies for prices.

I hate when people state that we have the best health care in the world... because how many of our 300 million people have access to that?

Is this good?

I keep getting this book suggested on Goodreads and amazon. I love southern Gothic realism, but I was worried this one was more of an Oprah's book club kind of pick.

Fuck it... I'll buy it anyway. Let me know what you think though...

We've been seriously binge-ing Justified lately (yeah, I know I'm very late to the party). Great dialogue, great performances.


One of the most underrated shows of the last decade. I've watched them all twice.

I only wish that it was filmed in Kentucky and not in a small town on the outskirts of LA county though. Still works.

Pretty good theme song too.
